You put too much value into being pro. All that makes a pro player is for someone to put some effort into playing professionally. Join a team, practice, sign up for some tournaments, win some money. You are now a professional player. Enjoy.

Wait, you main lucio and got to GM? How is that even possible, I thought lucio was a hero where it’s hard to distinguish someone who is highly skilled and someone who is just average

What? Nuances still make a big difference from how well you actually peel for people to how well you facilitate kills via speed boost, which is often ignored.

Yes of course there is a big difference.

I’m just surprised because even for supports in general, there is already the perception that it is hard to distinguish a very good player from an average player (hence you would rather your grandmaster player play genji and your bronze player play lili, then have your gm player play lili and your bronze play genji).

But among the supports I would have thought lucio is not one that particularly stands out for having a high skillcap (heroes like auriel and kharazim come to mind for playmaking supports, for instance, but not really lucio).

I mean think about it. Your average diamond level lucio is already pretty decent and knows everything there is to know about lucio. It would be very hard to distinguish yourself so much from the diamond lucio that you can hit grandmaster with it (and diamond lucios are no slouch either)
