Even if the top .1% were going to be considered "Pro," it's still a dumb suggestion. This isn't 2005, and we aren't going to base the top players according to their placement in an online competition, and especially not a matchmaking system. The "mlg pros" would be all cheaters and foreigners.

... it would still be better than the current arena system dont you think ?
or at least add stats for mlg
maybe you cant see a pro only by looking stats but you could clearly see than someone with 1.3 k/d with 75% win is way better than someone with 1.1 k/d with 60% win

Do you mean the current MLG system? And no, it wouldn't be. There's no reason to change anything. I'm not really sure how the idea of a MLG Arena came up, but neither really need to be changed. Arena is dead, and there's no real chance to revive it. The MLG playlist is fine as is. There's the occasional quitter, but overall not bad. If you want a competitive game, play customs like everybody else.

You can see a person's individual playlist stats

for a total troll

can't believe you said something completely true

yes but MLG and the rest of the competitive playlists are combined in the same stats



na I meant the current Arena system, the MLG system is fine but id like to see some rating/ranking/stats for it. like in halo 3
even if halo 3 was full of derankers and cheaters, a level 50 in MLG meant something.

No, you can see the specific stats for every playlist.

And having a 50 in MLG meant absolutely nothing. You didn't even have to be THAT good to get a 50, and there were so many cheaters/boosters in H3, having a 50 in any playlist didn't mean shit. I've gotten 12-15 legit 50's in the playlist, and I always laugh at the people who think it's an achievement. Any average Halo player can get to a 45 with ease, and with a half-decent team they can get a legit 50.

true
but id still add a tab under arena and matchmaking for MLG
so you dont have to go un bungie.net to see someone MLG stats

If you could see someone's k/d and win/loss on Reach, it would defeat the purpose of Bungie.net. And anyway, if you could see someone's stats like that, every playlist would just become 100% stat-whoring. People would never go for the flag in MLG, they'd just sit there and slay and slay and slay so they can show off their 2 k/d.

ok your right again
you won, I dont want any 4 k/d bad players in MLG like there is in big team battles
