I'm bored so I came up with an idea for a thread.

I warn you all now, there will be no trolling in this thread, no sarcastic remarks about how certain classes are better/simpler/overpowered/underpowered/whatever. This is meant to be discussion.

Anyway, here we go. It's simple. Fill in the blanks, and provide reasoning if you so wish.

"It's easy to be a good __________ because __________, but it's tough to be a great __________ because __________."



For example: "It's easy to be a good pyro because you just spray flames everywhere, but it's tough to be a great pyro because effective use of compression blast takes practice."
 
It's easy to be a good Dead Ringer Spy because only pyros and snipers can reveal you after you drop your fake corpse, but it's tough to be a great Dead Ringer spy because timing on when to drop the corpse and redisguise is hard to learn.

(BTW, frisky, when you read this, you redisguise too quickly after dropping your fake corpse. It is too easy to catch the disguise cloud as you run away!!!)
 
It's easy to be a good Pyro because you have to W+M1, but it's tough to be a great spy because you need to have leet skillz (like me).
 
"It's easy to be a poster because all you have to do is tap on the keyboard, but it's tough to be a great poster because you have to use your brain."
 
"Its easy to be a pyro because all you have to do is W+M1. Its tough to be any class because spies like Frisky and I are out there prowling."
 
"It's easy to be a good Pyro becauseWhen you are starting, aim isnt always your strong point ;), but it's tough to be a great Medic because You lack anything to defend yourself that can make a quick kill, at most times its tricky."
 
"It's easy to be a good huntsman sniper because let's face it, it's called the lucksman for a reason, but it's tough to be a great sniper because the rifle takes skill."
 
It's easy to be a good pyro because I've seen a kid play pyro using a steering-wheel before, but it's tough to be a great pyro because I can't find pedals to go with the steering wheel."
 
"It's easy to be a good medic because keeping your team alive is pressing m1 on their name, but it's tough to be a great medic because most of your team isn't aware of all the things like the medic is aware of. (ex spies, flanking scouts, snipers etc etc)"

Basically you are as good as your team is, but being a better medic is communicating to your team the things that are around you, so you and your team can stay alive longer and get more kills than the other team can.
 
Good thread idea, but I am going to throw a word of caution in, this could easily get out of control with people bickering over whats easy and what isn't. So here is a warning, please think before you post in the thread.

"It's easy to be a good anything because so many people are mediocre and apathetic (content at being average) but it's tough to be a great anything because greatness demands skill, dedication, commitment, a lot of work, and usually brains or a lot of luck." (Some of those might be redundant but it's almost midnight ok?)

The difference between good and great is inches, not feet.
The difference between a good quarterback and a great quarterback is that one throw at the end of the game that wins it.

Real life example (note I am notttttttt a golf fan so correct me if I missed something): Tiger's 14 major wins. If you throw out the two blowouts (12 and 15 stroke wins), his reminaing 9 wins (skip the playoffs) are by 3.4 holes. That's 3.4 holes over 4 days. Less than one per day. Inches, not feet, and I don't mean in the golf sense.

(The previous three examples are stolen from an unnamed ESPN talk show host.)

Anyway, good thread. :thumbup1:
 
Its easy to be good at being kilroy because he owns all and scouts everyone IN DA FACE

It's easy to be a good advisor because all you have to do is act serious. It's hard to be a great advisor because you have to say it with a straight face.;):P
 
It's easy to be a good sentry gun because I'm automated, but it's tough to be a great sentry gun because I can't spycheck on my own.
 
It's easy to be a good Team Fortress 2 player because all you need to know how to do is aim, but it's tough to be a great Hello Kitty Island Adventure player because you always need the latest anti-troll spells and must collect items all the time or face being "so 5 seconds ago".
