When and if, don't expect to have that skill just because you want it. For all you know it probably takes 20 times more practice than you have time for.
As I'm sure you're fully aware, I don't like the idea of people resetting purely for better stats. It causes a misrepresentation of real skill especially early on and in some ways it's "cheating the system". Oh well, you're just a kid, I can't expect you to understand.

And you criticize me for wanting 5 stars? I don't have dreams for games (not talking about sleep dreams), at least as far as stats (it's too egotistic). If I have a dream for something to do with a game, it's probably to make a movie from a game or to be part of a highly organized team in a balanced match and winning by a small margin, something like that. Of couse I have a lot of "it would be cool" wants, including good stats, but it's mostly stuff I would just let happen instead of me pursuing it, and I certainly wouldn't want to cause anyone else trouble because I want something.

What I meant to say was goal but whatever. Pilot I criticized you because one time I asked why you play and your answer was basically this: To get 5 stars. And thats not the only reason I want to reset. For months now I've been adding rivals that I have FARG with and can't even see online(or games for that matter). Plus I have 47 friends and some I don't see online and some quit so It's good to make room.

About the practice thing though...I sent him a message on youtube saying I wanted to be the next him and he told me he had already had 3000 games with the BH alone already.
(btw heres his response)

My experience with Weavel started a long time ago, with the Battle Hammmer only. I played 3000 matches by using it alone, and my skill with it became strong enough to be a threat to almost anything.

However, I learned over time that the Battle Hammer alone, wasn't enough to win a match against the many skilled Nsiders and players from Gamefaqs. Although I had the best Battle Hammer in Metroid Prime Hunters, the weapon isn't enough to play competitively.

Of course, I still used it for a period, using it just for the challenge. I used a sensitivity of 15, a level that was perfect for the Battle Hammer. With my fast reaction time, I could react to each of my opponent's moves. Most people would run from me, because they would always get hit with the blast radius from the Battle Hammer, and my aim which I was launching each shot.

After getting five stars, and not getting a single Headshot on my Hunter License, I started to practice competitively, I used other affinities to my advantage, including the Imperialist. But, I wasn't able to maintain a steady aim with the Power Beam, Volt Driver, or Imperialist. I cut my sensitivity in half, to 7, which yes, hurt my Battle Hammer aim. I recovered it, in time, and my skills with other weapons began to slowly grow as well.

For practice, I played on Council Chamber/Elder Passage with 3 star Bots. Since there is so much elevation on those two maps, I could practice my Battle Hammer aim, to perfection after a few hundred matches.

After that, I played on different maps and gametypes, so I would have experience in just about anything. If you want to become a skilled Weavel, you can use just the Battle Hammer for a challenge, or expose yourself to all the other affinities now, to gain a head start on experience.

For the Challenge, and for the Competition, it's up to you. Be aware that using the Battle Hammer alone on Wi-Fi, is very hard to cope with. A lot of players will run from you, you may find yourself left frustrated. I was used to this, and I didn't give up, which left me with a 80% win ratio on Wi-Fi.

As you probably know, Weavel is no walk in the park, but I wish you luck, for playing as a low tier hunter can reward you with challenge and fun.
Yes I do understand I can't use that weapon alone but it is still my Affinity and I should be able to master it and it should be a threat. It will be a bigger challenge than anyone on TDS ever had.

I'm pretty sure I never said that was my reason for playing, but I remember saying I was going to keep using Trace+Imp until I reached 5 stars. Show me a chat log where I said otherwise, I'll check it in my own logs (I never delete them), then I'll believe you.

Good luck being a challenge to us with your BH.

Ah, I remember back when I played clan battles (or battle to be specific). Yeah, a 1v1 contingent match was all ever played. :P

Hope you guys don't mind me posting in your clan thread.

Talk to me on MSN about it, I think it would be better to do practice on an immediate basis at least until we figure out where it fits in on all of our schedules. So when you're ready, IM me to see if I'm ready.
