It's 1 in the morning and I have nothing better to do, so here's my gamer bio.

Let's talk about my name. What is {C.O.R.P.}? Why is there an [FF] at the end of my name? Why use something as generic as Destroyer?

{C.O.R.P.}, or Company of Respected Players, was a gaming group (I wouldn't call it a clan, and neither would its members) that existed in the Total War games, primarily Medieval II Total War. It eventually fell apart and I left Medieval II in pursuit of other interests. [FF], or FullForce, was a GMod group that had some of the most effective, friendly, and cooperative staff (at least on the 67thway_v3 server), and I even eventually became a moderator for the 67thway_v3 server. Nothing lasts forever; internal strife created a rift within the FullForce community and FullForce turned into VexonGaming, which then turned into who knows what. I was a part of the Vexon community for quite a while, even obtaining my moderator status during my stay, but something just didn't feel right with the community. I left, and so did my interest in GMod. Destroyer was something I used as a kid; I guess I wanted something powerful and fearsome, so I just used Destroyer along with a number of other aliases. Destroyer was the one I stuck with.

I guess you could say that my name contains remnants of the past. None of these groups actually exist anymore. How about what types of games I've played in the past and play now?

I can play anything; strategy, puzzle, FPS, TPS, slashers, RPGs, etc. I'm also usually pretty okay at them, but I never seem to become anything amazing. It's due to this nature that I tend to jump around games without ever fully committing to them. An exception to this would be League of Legends, which I played from a summer to the February of the following year. However, I never really became good at League of Legends and never became interested in ranked play, and as my friends started to stop playing League or become secluded, I lost interest in it. Other games like Unturned, TF2, and Shogun 2: Total War have taken away many hours of my life, but I've never become dedicated to them.

However, the most important exception to this would definitely have to be Counter Strike: Global Offensive. I'm not a veteran Counter Strike: Source player. Deaging in GMod is way different from deaging in Counter Strike, and I had no interest in Counter Strike before my friends started playing it. Of course I was trash, but the difference is that I wanted (and want) to get better. I started somewhere in mid-2014 and am still playing it as of today, with a few prolonged breaks in between. Honestly, if it wasn't for betting and skins, I might not be as invested into Counter Strike. Yes, I've lost more than I've gained, and it has made me smash my head against the wall more than a few times, but I guess I'm just always trying to make up that loss. I'm probably at a deficit of about 120 bucks right now, which isn't a lot to the guys that have a lot of skins, but, the thing is, I'm not one of those guys.

So what about how I play Counter Strike? My take on success in Counter Strike relies on three factors: good morale, good aim, and good strats. All of these tie into each other; you can't have one without the others. How do I measure these factors for myself? On a good day, I have pretty good aim. On a good day, I'm pretty confident. On a good day, I can execute strats pretty well.

But what if I'm not having a good day? I'm currently Master Guardian II; on a good day, I can frag like an LEM, but if it's a bad day, I turn into a silver. The thing is, I'm having more bad days than good days nowadays. I would classify myself as a confidence player; if I feel like I can hit every shot and move into the right positions every time, I can perform at a level several ranks above my skill group. I also can't take criticism or arguments very well; even helpful criticism kills my confidence, and toxic teammates take away from the equation as well. Or maybe I'm bottom fragging because I lost a huge bet; who knows? Who cares?

Whelp, I'm Master Guardian Elite now. I just got queued with Legendary Eagles; they must have been pre-made or something, but I managed to be the second most impactful player on my team, lagging behind by only 2 points. Something felt off about the way these guys played; maybe it was just way too late and everybody's aim was off (being 1:15 AM), but if I can frag as well as Legendary Eagles, then that has to mean something.

Let's talk about what maps I like. Dust II, right? Nah. Everybody is good at Dust II, and the players seem to be more toxic on Dust II if you underperform. I'm not especially good at Dust II, so I just tend not to queue on it. Nuke is my favorite map since I always seem to perform well on it, but it's in the reserves group now (but I still don't like Train at all). Mirage and Inferno are kinda like my seasonal maps, I guess; sometimes I'm really good on Mirage and trash on Inferno, other times it's the other way around. Cobblestone is just a weird map for me, especially after the CT side nerf, so I just tend not to put it in my queue preferences at all. I'm actually pretty good on Overpass (maybe because nobody else really is), and I don't sweat it when it's the map that's picked for me to play on when I queue for it. Cache is also the same case, but I feel more comfortable playing on Cache just because Cache is more played and liked than Overpass (I also actually know some of the call-outs on Cache, too).

Well, I ranked up to DMG again. The thing is, after a 2 win/ 2 tie streak, I deranked after one bad game on Overpass to MGE. After like 6 games and a slump, though, I managed to get back up to DMG. Maybe this time we'll take it up to LE?

Toxic players. Ah yes, that one little squeaky kid that yells about every bloody thing that his (or her?) team is doing wrong; you gotta wonder if he (or she?) does it every time he (or she?) has a bad game. CS:GO is a MENTAL GAME. If you're not in an optimal mental position, then how are you supposed to coordinate your crosshair placement and, more importantly, your movement? Being toxic towards your teammates only makes them do worse, and it tilts you as well. Is it worth the effort, being the whiny little ♥♥♥♥♥ on your team that makes a bad situation harder to deal with? Keep the spirit of the team up, and don't make the game hard to play for everybody on your team. If you have something constructive to say, then say it. Otherwise, stfu.

Sometimes, ♥♥♥♥ happens. With betting, that's pretty much all the time.

Legendary Eagle. The day before the beginning of school... I never thought it would actually happen until I got DMG. I think I truly played like a Global during my promotion game, even though I started tilting near the end. To become a Global Elite, however, I'm gonna need to up my consistency. Every time I rank up, I question whether or not I'm actually skilled enough to be at my rank. The fact that I'm Legendary Eagle means I was actually good enough to be DMG, but am I truly playing at a Legendary Eagle level? I think that question applies more to this specific rank, because it's only 3 ranks shy of the highest rank in the game. If I'm competent enough to be a Legendary Eagle, though, then I hope I can bring my Dual Berreta pistol round strats and love for shotguns into Global.

*insert deleted paragraph detailing random ♥♥♥♥ about getting to LEM here*

well ♥♥♥♥ me im gn2 now the ♥♥♥♥ happened dood
