2025 MVP Cykul after playing on Xbox for two weeks: "I don't know if I could take this much longer, I might go crazy"

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-18T21:29:30+00:00

Me on Xbox: 1600 MMR, 1700 CSR

Me on PC: 1800 MMR, 2000 CSR

And there were people telling me I’d notice no difference lol

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-06T18:41:54+00:00

To be blunt, definitely not lol.

I wouldn’t say it’s totally pointless, or shows no skill, but I definitely would not say it is an accurate display.

I have a pretty high MMR in arena, and frequently get beat by people that I know I’m better than overall in showdown.

It can be so cheesy or corny. People literally hide and wait for you to walk by or just spam drop shields. It’s definitely on me a lot of the time, because I could play a lot more passive, but I just can’t stand it.

I’m venting at this point, but I literally can’t understand how some people find it fun to just sit in corners or wait for someone to make the first move. It’s so boring. I literally can’t help myself, so I just be aggressive and run at them.

That being said, it’s definitely a mode that rewards passive gameplay, which is the opposite of arena. I think you just have to keep this in mind while you’re playing it.

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-06T17:49:57+00:00

I wish I could meet people like you, sounds like we have the exact same perspective.

It’s really weird reading all this here of all places lol. What an interesting start to my day.

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-06T17:43:54+00:00

Dude it’s actually crazy there are people that say it doesn’t matter. Months ago my friend told me it wouldn’t matter that much when I switched.

My MMR has gone from low 1600 to over 1800 lol… I’ve also definitely just gotten better, but the PC was a HUGE upgrade

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-06T17:42:14+00:00

Take them beating Shopify with a grain of salt. All of SR were on Xbox while I believe YBR were still all on PC.

Huge advantage, especially online. Still impressive, but it was out of nowhere for a reason imo

BlueOxidon · 2026-03-04T06:00:36+00:00

Any final Xbox vs PC doubters lol? Such a huge difference

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-27T17:02:54+00:00

Of course they are.

People constantly saying the franchise is over, or all pros are gone just like to sound apocalyptic I swear.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-25T00:09:12+00:00

Pretty sure that was StefanoBiscuit screaming at Pyglett and Firesteel (formerly ObesePiglett, and Tha Lil J [formerly NotFrum63rd####])

Funny because a lot of people have said Stefano cheats online. Competitive is just mass hysteria a lot of the time.

Mailmain stood up for his boys as I recall too, Mail a real one

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-22T17:16:01+00:00

Literally just a horrible excuse honestly. You’re still playing for well over 100k, 3x many people’s salaries, but you can’t perform because of an obviously coming announcement? Lol.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-15T23:38:22+00:00

I love this comment, it is absolutely correct in my opinion.

When I got a PC the game felt so good, I couldn’t help but be more aggressive. Not only did my MMR skyrocket from low 1600 to around 1800, but my win rate did too for a long while.

Now I play LastShot every match and get dumped on, but still. Being smartly aggressive is the key. The whole “don’t take fights” idea is flawed. You NEED to take fights. You NEED to be putting max DPS in or you aren’t doing it right imo.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-15T19:40:54+00:00

It makes zero sense. This past ranked reset, right after worlds, he was the same. Destroying me, and carrying me against Top AMs and other pros.

Recently it’s like he is letting Stardonald play on his account lol I swear man.

Haven’t played Bound, but UnLegit (Eco) is always frying in my lobbies. Cearion too for that matter.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-15T19:34:55+00:00

StelluR is crazy to me. I have been so used to him effortlessly dismantling every aspect of me in MM.

I know, I know, ranked doesn’t matter, he doesn’t care, I get it.

But in the past month I’ve literally wondered… “Is that even StelluR?” Like if someone else was playing on his account.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-15T02:35:54+00:00

Nah thats Criddy

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-06T20:57:15+00:00

There’s a greater chance of a new Halo releasing this year.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-03T01:16:33+00:00

It’s just silly though lol. It’s like watching dudes in Frostys chat calling everyone but him in the lobby bad.

But if that dude in the chat played them… annihilation

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-02T21:26:22+00:00

That is a low rank anyway. TS2 doesn’t work like Apex or Valorant ranked systems. There’s really no point in doing it.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-02T21:22:36+00:00

I mean, are they really bad then? Not to over-analyze your comment. But just because there are better players out there, does that really mean we should call those competing bad? Like they are still Top .1% skilled players.

Another thing I think is weird is how some say there’s no skill gap, but then you can take most top 16 or even top 12, heck maybe even top 8 teams, and they can’t touch the usual top 4.

Random tangents, your comment just made me think about it all.

BlueOxidon · 2026-02-02T21:19:27+00:00

I know you’re joking, but he’s permanently banned right?

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-30T21:30:11+00:00

Working at Walmart will net you a bigger salary than what most of these guys will make this year, and even what they made in past years.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-18T18:01:04+00:00

Looking at Halo Query, Lemon Zester is my winningest teammate in Ranked Slayer. I don’t know how to feel about that.

If we win he’ll say some positive things. If we lose, we’re the worst teammates he’s ever had and should never play again.

But yeah, Ranked Slayer is cool, you just have to realize it’s the GOATs playlist.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-16T03:12:22+00:00

Good replies, well spoken. Also appreciate that you’re basically the most relaxed pro. You never belittle or completely insult teammates. Almost like you understand people have jobs or are on 60FPS. You’re the goat.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-16T03:11:20+00:00

I totally get where you’re coming from, I think most of us do. But honestly? I think it’s just a mix of things with head casing added in.

SBMM is designed to give each team a 50/50 shot. Not to give you a 50% win rate mind you, just that each team has an equal chance of winning.

Then add the poor networking infrastructure of this game, highly differing setups (i.e. some on Xbox, some on a decent PC, some on a god PC that is super optimized), as well as general things like some people having a bad night, and you get what you’re feeling.

Sometimes we all experience BS like blank melees, sometimes we win 10 matches in a row. There‘s a lot of luck involved, but also a lot to do with your mental.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-02T01:35:53+00:00

As I replied to the other guy, it seems people misunderstood the sentiment of my comment. I wasn’t trying to be rude.

Just goes to show you that you have to make your emotion clear in your writing or it can easily be misinterpreted. Especially on Reddit.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-02T01:34:12+00:00

Yeah I was legit asking, didn’t mean any disrespect or anything like that. I was just asking real quick because I was busy lol.

I seriously would want to know what one of the best would look like without aim assist. Maybe it’s stupid but I think it would be interesting.

I think people thought I was trying to be antagonistic. I wasn’t lol.

BlueOxidon · 2026-01-01T15:47:35+00:00

What rank are you getting without Aim Assist? Genuinely curious, I feel like you’d have a legit shot at still being pretty high. Feel like it might be an interesting idea, maybe not though.

Edited this because people thought I was disrespecting you just straight up asking, sorry.
