Think you’ve played too many ranked games?

If you didn’t think that there would be a player with over 1,000 1v1 ranked games under his belt by now, you were wrong. Gabriel-E78 currently stands at 657 wins, 470 losses, and 39 draws, for a total of 1,166 ranked games played. That makes for an average of thirteen ranked games a day since retail launch. Crazy. I wonder if he’s spent even more time playing this game than I’ve spent writing about it?

    Wow. Now that is free time.

  2. Wuped Says:

    If I spent as much time playing as I do lurking forums/chat rooms I think I could catch up…. (:

  3. Baddox Says:

    I wonder if he’s playing right now. Statistically, he likely is.

  4. T2A` Says:

    Sometimes I wonder what would happen if I invested all the time I waste perusing the Internet at random into one or two games. I’d probably get pretty good. I guess that won’t happen, though, because my attention span is so short I need something different after awhile, and the Internet suits that perfectly. :(

    BTW, I think I’ve played 34 ranked games.

    Man I’d like to have time to play one game, but this whole work thing gets in the way.

  6. RDon Says:

    He has more draws than I have losses.

    It is possible that he shares his account with somebody though, like a brother or whatever.

  7. Molloy Says:

    I should imagine he’s sharing with a few people. Try and get an interview with him!

  8. squidbot Says:

    Holy cow, I think he plays more hours than I work on the game!

  9. breezy Says:

    he’s in my clan. Im pretty sure he doesnt share his account with anyone. He just plays. A lot. All day. And all night.

    now i’ll just wait for the Supreme Commander South Park episode. :)

    “Dude, your ACU looks soo gay” lol

  11. Gryphyn Says:

    I don’t think I could play one game that much. I love the game, but I have to have a couple of different games that I can choose from based on what I feel like doing at the time.

    He prob doesn’t have a girlfriend or a life for that matter. Think about it: Unless he plays every game at +10 gamespeed and is able to omgwtfbbqpwn his opponents within 5 minutes, then he prob spends anywhere from 20 to 50 minutes real time per game xD.
    I barely pity the person./

    I’ve played him 3 times. He is good. Beat me twice, but disconnect the third. Probably would have won that game too.

  14. FiveLeafClover Says:

    I doubt he wouldn’t be good if he’s played so many games Jaguar =P

    I really wish everyone would have posted how many ranked 1v1 they’ve played. I’ve played right around 250 or so. It seems like a lot, but really, I got 3 or 4 day stretches where I don’t play. Most nights I only play 2 or 3 when I do. And the average time is 12 to 20 mins. I’m not great, slightly better than average, with a ~57.9% win/loss, and current rating of 1799. (Rank ~1100). I don’t pay super close attention, but check now and then.

    crazy guy what is the purpose of saying he dosnt have a life when u dont know him at all? Thats just plain mean. I mean he plays ranked a lot but ive heard him saying he has vacation and has A LOT of free time. He probably have time to do other things too. Anyway i like to play ranked a lot too, supcom is the only game im playing atm and i just dont like playing custom or sit in halcyon as much as i like to play a ranked game. When i feel like playing some computer i just go and search for a ranked :o). I dont think im playing more than many of my friends, its just that i only play one game and almost only ranked :p

    theres no way he has a girlfriend/boyfriend, as good as this game is and others, if your spending that much time on a computer its unhealthy, it will mess you up and you miss out on the outside world, his time would be better spent trying to get a girlfriend or something sup com isnt love lol

    Ho..what a suprise..they wrote about me…. just to let all of you know and for who is concerned by my health and my sentimental life, i have a gf and she like to play SC too, i train myself at gym 4 days a week and i’m an ex fitness semi-pro so I keep my health and my shape under control..don’t worry. I just have some free time and i like this game so i play..a lot..because it’s fun, its the first rts I play online and I kinda suck i know. And for the math part most of the game i play last in 10-15 min so in 1h i can play from 4 to 6 games.. i play like 2h in the morning 3h in the evening and when I stay at home 2-3 maybe somethime 4 h in the night so it easy to reach 20-25 games or even more. Statistically 1h+ games and counterbalanced by
