Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

he played literally 400 pugs in a month or some poo poo to get into rank s, because esea just picked the top two rank a players with most pugs played, with no regard for other stats. apparently they changed it after seeing how bad bogdan is

Steel started a bully campaign on twitter and reddit to force Bogdan off rank s because Bogdan dared to tell him to shut the gently caress up, and ESEA loving listened to Steel and removed him.

gently caress steel so hard.

Last week on NA CS "curb your enthusiasm theme starts to play"

Even if this Bogdan which is a good name had punched a child in the face and stole his ice-cream no one deserves being brought to reddit's attention.

Anyhow time to lose some friday matches to eastern euro wallhackers on sub 300 hour accounts if anyone is on or maybe some esea if there isn't.

he was toxic before ever played with steel...I'm not defending steel he can be a real shitter, but bogdan is far from innocent who tries to defend his poo poo for brain plays.

Which are being lumped into one.

Bogdan got booted because bogdan did not belong in Rank S. --Good
Bogdan got bullied by steel, who was being a little punk-rear end. --Bad

Steel made a video because Bogdan talked back to him in a game, promoted it on twitter, and the next day ESEA booted bogdan.

Pretty lovely for ESEA to be paying any heed to the bitching of that obnoxious incestuous clique of NA steamers.

Redditors/Goons/Everyone thinks they know the game and gets into arguments on who deserves to be in Rank S

Take a step back and check yourself before getting involved in those discussions. 90% of those involved in those threads are at least three echelons away from that level of play. Do yourself a favor and please don't assume.

You're doing yourself a disservice!!

If I was putting together a french dream team it would be Kenny, Shox, Apex, NBK and a lurker/flanker but you don't want happy or devil. Maybe shox lurks and you bring rpk into it as turret man or scream if you're a gambler

Holy poo poo, played an ESEA game and I feel soooo bad for my teammates. Was usually middle of the board in terms of kills, but was clearly making like 100000x worse decisions than everyone else.Going back to MM for awhile...

Do you guys have a rule of thumb rank cutoff before thinking about ESEA?

You should be at least LE/LEM when starting on ESEA. If you're anything below that I'd try out CEVO, especially since that service is free.

I suspect that the next operation will highlight "you can get weapon drops again!" if they ever loving release it.
