No shit, obviously if you spend your hours on some trade plazas or saxton hales you wont get better. Of course i meant you should prepare yourself and play more mge and tf2center so you wont be that guy who was wished cancer cos he was a faggot what caused your team’s failure.

You were still talking out of your ass in your first post. You could probably do decently in iron with 200 hours, as long as you spent those hours in an efficient way. With 1000 hours you could probably theoretically be top high. It’s just stupid to think hours and skill have a strong correlation.

“could probably”, “theoretically” < Nobody needs your theories. Were you playing in iron when you had like 200 hours? Hell no. You can't even learn game mechanics nor it's physics (source) in that spare of time cos tf2 has it's own specifics like rocket jumping, backstabbing and airblasting and so on. It's not a COD or cs go where you only shoot at people's heads and share infos. Tf2 is an unique shooter almost one of it's kind and it has to be played a lot. And a normal person would start playing it from pubs. Don't you fucking come with 200 hours shit please.

A lot of decent advice in this thread already, but have you tried forming your own team? Most Open/Iron teams are just groups of friends. See if any of your friends want to play, and if that doesn’t give you enough players, see if any of their friends want to play.

I think you are right. I was a bit frustrated when he said that he is up for already created team. I was worried he might be fucked up for not having a good experience. So yes, he should make his own team with his friends. That’s the single reason why i mentioned 1k hours.

How to turn a “how to get recruited ” thread into a “hours matters or not”one, really really helpfull guys thanks. Also zombie, why would u give advices that arent working for you? i mean in one and a falh year here u havent played much official games, maybe u should pay more attention to what others says and talk less. Just my opinion tho.

What you are saying in terms of hours needed is three times as retarded as what I’m saying. I’ll change my statement, you CAN play in iron with 200 hours and you CAN play high with 1000.

Most people aren’t as bad as you, they don’t need 3500 hours to play comp. It takes them far less time to pick up the game and understand the mechanics and fundamentals of the game.

hours don’t mean shit. for example, you could compare fanva to me.

he has about 1500 hours, while i am at around 3000.
we’ve played the same amount of matches, though he has played at a far higher level than me, during a longer period than i was even close to.

nukkye, dennia, thalash, zappis are examples of scouts with about the same hours played as me that still beat me by far. they’re probably generally better than me at the game.

it comes down to you as a player and/or person.
