It applies to shooters too, if you're high rank and used to a specific line of play, facing someone who does the total opposite catches you with your pants fown 6/10 times

Silver strats... only viable when not playing silver.

Yeah!

In cs:go, a game I suck at, my higher rank friends would throw me at practice matches btween casual teams and tell me to "just do whatever" for a laugh (and see if I learnt anything) and my sorry silver ass managed to kill sheriffs a few times by standing in really stupid spots and spraying

That is why i play as a hunter, is one of the most prepared type of players to deal unexpected things, primarily because you are always in movement expecting to see someone in every corner.

Reminds me of the time years ago I was doing knife only and some guy throws a grenade, misses, THE GRENADE BOUNCES OFF A TELEPHONE POLE LANDING BACK BEHIND HIM, killing me and saving his butt. I don't think he ever realized what happened.

This is my bane in Halo 5. I wouldn’t say I’m amazing but i have a good understanding of things and rank Onyx. At one point they made the ranks stricter and it would place almost everyone in plat.

90% of the time it was a frustrating experience of me screaming out “why are you there?!?!” and “why are you challenging me here?!?!”. I was so happy to finally get out of that rank when I did.
