Just got promoted to Legendary Eagle after playing like 10 games as DMG, I don't even recall winning them all or anything. I'm pretty surprised, and I don't feel I really deserve the rank either. My aim is really hit or miss, and I make quite a lot of stupid decisions all the time. Might have something to do with the huge banwaves!

Made it to Lem today, pretty happy with the promotion. Too bad I played terribly in the game though, bottomfragging and all. Onwards to smfc it is.

If you want the cheapest option you can wait for it to go on sale on a steam sale (next one is july i think) or during a major tournament, the game usually gets 50 or 75% off

Nah, I want to buy it in the next days and dont want to wait that much :D It's not about the money tbh, but if is possible to pay only 10 bucks instead of 15, why not?

Cheapest way to get steam games in my experience has been through steam trading websites, where people will trade copies of various games for keys. You don't actually do any trading through these websites so it's pretty secure. It's my go-to method of buying games for buddies when we wanna play them but when they're not on sale; got a couple copies of Borderlands 2 for like 10 bucks this way, and similar other deals.

Its not a bad way to go, really.

Bottom fragged and lost twice in a row, then mid-fragged and tied, ranked up

Banwave likely dropped a lot of the upper ranks, so everyone kind of gets bumped up a little.
