    I've seen the word "pro" slung around a lot.
    It's been said so much that it essentially no longer has any meaning to it.
    So what constitutes a "pro" in your sense?

    In my opinion, I would consider anyone who regularly goes above 5.0 K/D in matches a pro.
    Not too easy, but not so hard that it's impossible.
    And of course, you need to be able to win every single FFA/GG/OIC match thrown at you.
    No exceptions. Win every. Single. One.

    Yes, I based this off of myself. <3
    (My current K/D is 4.23 and going up. Was around 2.17 3 weeks ago.)

    MY version of a pro is someone who plays a lot, has a real high KDR, high amount of nukes and EMPs. Not a player in FLUX. Some players yeah, but not much. I get kind of tired of crap players saying they're pro because they are in FLUX...

    I think that you are wrong about the 5+ kdr. Idc if you have a good or bad kdr, it's extremely easy to get 5+ kdr if you camp. I think you are pro if you can go in the middle of a battle and get 5+ kdr then you are pro.

    EDIT: or if you can beat me in a 1v1 sniping battle.

    I get bored extremely easily.
    I don't have the patience to camp.

    I think a pro has a few criteria to fill
    1. Does not say they are Pro
    2. Plays fair and admits defeats
    3. Plays their the way they wanna play but not in a way that makes it unfair for others
    4. Doesn't use Hacks
    5. At least knows when their bested
    6. Doesn't flame
    7. Cares and plays like a team
    8. Has a good play style that gets them good legitiment kills and also has its fall points
    9. Has Fun while playing

    God, no.
    My WarZ playstyle could not be any more different than MC-War.
    WarZ is: Delta-1, go take cover behind that tree and be ready to flank. Delta-2, distract with pistol fire. Delta-3, snipe from afar. I'll move in and decimate with AK.
    MC-War: MOHER****ERSSSS SPRINT HOLD DOWN RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON AND JUMP WOOOOOOOOOOO YEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    I think pro player means they play a game for there life(as in paycheck), and are payed for there more advanced skill. Personally, if you have a lot of skill, I would call you an expert or a veteran.Pro just doesnt sound right to me.

    (I didnt read every comment so if this is off topic then everyone elseI am sorry)

    Quite honestly, a pro, in my dictionary at least, is mixed too often with try-hard, or e1337, and yes I mean to spell it that way.
    Try-Hard or e1337: Brags about their 3.0 KDR, there is no GG or "Oh damn those guys are good" for them. It's either you're a noob, or you're a hacker.
    Pro: Doesn't brag about their well kept 4.0+KDR, there is always a compromise, most of the time as GG, and pure, raw, skill. Not sure if I've said it before, but skill is not based on your numbers, it's based on how well you can play, and how you can adapt to your situations. There is no way to know someones skill until you've sat down and cracked a few rounds with them.
