Current Events > what's the highest level of play/highest rank you've ever achieved in a game?

(+) Yeah! (+)

What game was it?
And do you still play?

NBA Jam on the SNES. Semi-Finals in a 3 state tournament. This was for the blockbuster video game chapionship thing from way back in the day.

After the 2nd month of Guilty Gear Strive being released I've been in celestial every month since then, even had that thing happened to me where you get to stay in celestial if you rank top 300 or something.

I was top 100 in total stats in RuneScape at one point many years ago

or maybe 200? 100 seems too high

HR 999 in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

all weapons at level 10/all characters and customization unlocked in mass effect 3 multiplayer

Dragon Ball Raging Blast lol. I was in the top 100s, and was invited to a PS3 chat room full of the world's best. Really felt like an elite club

Rank 11 in King of the Hill Survival for Mortal Kombat X. Highest win streak was in the 20s. Kept making the entire lobby leave. And I was using a character that wasn't even high tier and was pretty unpopular. That gave me an advantage though since I knew the character pretty well, plus people weren't as used to fighting her since she wasn't common.

I've had high scores in the top 100 for a few Tetris games but admittedly one of them stopped even selling digital copies after a year. And no doubt the score placement has long since dropped.

Number 6 with Wesker in RE5 Mercs mode
That was ages ago tho, I wonder where I am now?

#1 in Eternal for a monthly event. Don't really play anymore. Game is fun but I lack the time/interest.

I never get far, as a theme

I don't often play ranked games but in Overwatch I peaked at like 3900 SR

Pokemon League Champion

Not a video game but was one of the top yugioh players in my state.

My brother is pretty into speedrunning rise. I play with him from time to time but I'm just casual player. Finishing G/Master rank and making decent sets is as far as I go

I used to enjoy it back then. Most notable was a G Tank Teostra and G Rank Zinogre in 5:03 and 3:18 respectively, plus scattered GL runs in Generations and World

Ive gotten to the point in my life where thats just not for me anymore. Im happy beating the quest.

Seems like I still got some top ten highscores in UberNes.

A couple top 100 scores in gh3, a few top 500 in gh2. That was like 10 years ago

oh I hit rank 1 in heroes of the storm season 1 too. I think rank 1 was top 1%? it was when it used the 35-1 system

High score in Yie Ar Kung-fu in some skating rink, like thirty years ago.

rank h in luigis mansion

Yeah I get that. I currently do relatively HC raiding in ffxiv and I'm currently debating if this upcoming tier will be my last. I've spent the better part of the last two years playing the game and I'm starting to somewhat move one.

Diamond in lol before they made masters and challenger.

no idea if I ever would have made masters though.

Don't know about rank, but I once went for a Speedrun of the original Super Mario Bros (all the way through) and finished 5 seconds behind the record.

Rank 27 construction. Old-school runescape
Not that cool tho. if I had started it a few months earlier I could have at least gotten front page for it (top 25) . I was previously rank 28 tho but some guy got banned haha. Was hoping two more ppl would get banned after I quit the game for good but no luck so far

Also got like rank 19 in a minigame for a game called Rag doll kung fu for ps3. The minigame where you shake the controller to hit targets. Idk how else to explain it

Semi-professional status in MTG. Then they changed the system and how professional points were accumulated and it just wasn't worth the time investment and cost.

Resistance: Fall of Man
A few buddies and I got super into it one summer, entered some big national 3-on-3 tournament, made it to the round of 8 and narrowly lost to one of the top well-known clans.

Not necessarily a high-ranking thing, I'm just convinced that I have more playtime in the SNES baseball game Super Batter Up than anyone else in the world. It's a somewhat obscure game (Super Bases Loaded and the Ken Griffey Jr game were far more popular) and I played it a ton since I was a little kid through high school, then got a friend into it and we played it a ton more for several years into adulthood. Even ended up hex editing the ROM to figure out how to edit the rosters and such, lol.

In-game, probably Platinum in Yugioh Master Duel. Which should tell you how much I bother to play Ranked games in anyway. Out of game, I was considered top 10 in the state for one of the Smash games for a while. Wasnt exactly a good state or anything.

probably when i used to be good enough at street fighter and marvel to have the whole arcade putting their quarters down to play me

would still probably have gotten dogwalked by pros but it's a good feeling to get the whole arcade popping off

Mortal Kombat 9I was one of the top online Stryker players even before they buffed his B+3.

Peaked 4445 SR in OW and multiple top 16 finishes in Open Division. Unfortunately had to stop playing to work more since there is absolutely no money to be made there until you reach the top and bills and stuff won't pay themselves, and it was too painful to keep playing casually when I know I could do more and gone farther if I had the time to keep playing competitively. Also one of my teams is in a clip in this D. Va staggering video, pretty cool when I found that out lol https://youtu.be/CseMbqkOtSw?t=107

These days I'm sticking to fighting games since they are much less of a huge time commitment, recently reached diamond in Street Fighter V and grinding as high as I can until SF6 comes out

Top 1 percent in Forza Horizon 5. But that's a measure of how much I've done in the game, not how good I am at it.

i was close to the top 100 in several stages in the THPS1+2 remaster, but i havent played in a long while so im probably way down there now

TF2 i was recruited by a couple of Gold Highlander Teams but I was tapped out at thay point and my performance definitely suffered :(

Ummm i was Diamond in OW like a year after it came out closing in on Master but that isnt all that high lmao
