Come back in 2-3 years. You'll be lucky to reach under rank 1000.
canadians cannot be professional
Yeah sometimes I wish I was a Unicorn
Joking aside though, probably take you years to reach competitive level

competitively you should go play cs:go, league or something, but not osu
I think progression in Osu is a lot more satisfying than in those other types of games simply because the game IS so simple and not overly complicated. You know exactly what to do to improve and the sum of your efforts manifests itself in your rank. Then you get to rank sub-1000 and try to compete but end up like Winber1.
Can we agree that the competitive "scene" for osu! is nearly nil? Because that's what I'm talking about
You can make competitions out of everything, from online games to who can fart the loudest - but it doesn't mean you should and most importantly it doesn't mean it's appropriate

I'm assuming that the opening poster means he wants to play at a high level, not necessarily in a competitive way. There definitely are high level players who play casually.

How in the world is it not "appropriate" to play osu competitively? What in the flipping french fries are you talking about.bigfeh wrote:

Oh wow, so I was reading the post again and turns out that's an exact quote from a post of mine. Cool.
Still, high level != competitive play. And while we're at it, there are a lot of "pros" around that just plain suck at the games they make a living out of

I highly doubt that there are many high ranked players that don't at least put a little bit of a competitive aspect to this game. Striving to overcome others, to beat your friends, top people's scores, pass players in pp, etc. etc. are all a form of competition. That's hard to get away from in this game unless you're playing offline all the time.bigfeh wrote:

You made an inference that's just not retarded because it sounds like I might have implied so.pandaBee wrote:

I didn't, and it's still wrong.
I'm saying it does not exist at the moment and the shape of the game doesn't help that.It could work, but since there's no incentive and no support for that kind of thing, I doubt it's going to get anywhere
EDIT:
I've said this already but I'll be more explicit this time: competition != competitive play.pandaBee wrote:

osu is an e-sport guyz wow!!1!!1! qcup hype
Though it'd be fun to see TSM vs CLG in osu! play
SKT T1 sayonara-bye
This is the problem with players that come from other games, they think osu is a competitive so they spend all their precious time asking how to get good and shitposting in reddit instead of actually playing the game.
I guess I'd be much higher if I didn't do that.nevermore wrote:

can we please stop this bullshit about competitive/pro = money is involved?
everybody knows what is ment when you mention those words in osu! context, and if you dont you have no place in these discussions.
competitive/pro in osu context means people who are high on the rankings and trying their best to get to those top spots.
*looks at bigfeh*

im a competitive shitposter but im not a professional shitposter
Shouldn't it be low in the rankings?
In the meantime, I'm just sitting here and waiting for drum drum 
I dunno, would you rather say "I'm a high ranking player" or "I'm a low ranking player"?Kheldragar wrote:

'cause most people would probably go with the first one.
Maybe it's a situation like that "Could care less" phrase that always annoys me
Getting paid to shitpost. Now that would be something.Riince wrote:

WWW at #1 is currently the highest ranking player, and his rank number is low, but that's not what you should describe when you describe rank, so it would be correct to say he is currently higher ranked than anyone else, not lower.Mahoganytooth wrote:

The correct saying is "couldn't care less", as in the person saying it cares so little that they are at the maximum capacity of not caring, hence them being unable to care any less. "Could care less" implies they have space to care less, so that they would care more than someone that couldn't care less.Mahoganytooth wrote:

don't do drugs, kheldragar, they're not good for you. You don't need to be high all the timeKheldragar wrote:

look, here's the thing: I get "pro" can mean anything between professional and good, but competitive most often does not. When you say competitive, it's mostly in the sense of "play being taken seriously"
it wasn't even my intention to shitpost because of the wording used by op - if it were, I would've done a much better job of taking a crap on his/her head
a lot of people definitely take it seriously
happystick done attending college and is streaming osu! fulltime

Which is retarded and you should FINISH it before going to stream osu if the above is correct.

happystick was pretty vague about it, so i have no idea if thats the case or not. i want to assume no.Kheldragar wrote:

Well you can make a living out of streaming but that's hardly competitive play, is it
