    Top national level with a mech mag? No. X or Dmag? Sure, probably. I used to play NPPL before the splitup, I went all over the US for it.

      I guess it comes down to what level again. It seemed to me at the level of OG Mags and Rainmakers competed favorably with Shockers and Matrix

          I meant no offense by my comments, looking back it seemed like i was attacking you personally. when I made this thread i meant can mags compete in tournaments, but now the more resonable question is if mags can compete in national level tournaments

            At the top level of skill, Dynasty, RL, etc. the players may find themselves to outclass the marker. I don't think it happens elsewhere.

              The OG is not a serious tournament though in the normal sense.

              The Rainmakers were shooting one rainmaker at the end and AO was sporting probably the best player.

              Did the teams try to win sure! Did they care if they lost? Well one person did but other than him most everybody was laid back.

                      so you think that teams like xsf, diesel (vicious), gridlock, LTZ would dare step out on the field with a mech mag?

                        Isn't it XSV? Or is there an XSF too? I seem to remember an XSF in some 720 Video...........

                          One or two front players... maybe. I don't think there would be much of a competetive disadvantage if they did.

                            until recently, my SFL was my main tourney gun, 3.2 software, had no problems keeping up/dominating others. I recently picked up a PM6, funny how the guns happen to line up exactly(tip of barrel, end of tank, trigger all in same configuration) i have no problems using my mag in place of the proto. the only time i find a "disadvantage" is when im playing in tourneys allowing ramping. i dont even have ramp on my proto though.(not yet anyway, UL on the way) but the only disadvantage came from not being able to send constant streams of paint out. i could snap better than the other players, and had no problem out gunning them.

                            Yes, i have a predator board ordered and plan on using the ramping when i can.

                            Yes, mags can compete, i dont run any faster/shoot any better with a heavier/lighter gun. and thats really the only small difference between my guns.

                            ive even played tourneys with non-bouncing mech mags and had no problem....really like pulling them out in tourney which allow ramp, cause mech bounce is allowed....22bps here i come

                              I dont remember any XSF's either but...the F key is near the V key on the keyboard, accidents happen. But anyways mags can compete at any level, its just whose using teh gun. And mags are a little expensive when you get to the point of upgrading as far as were talking;eyes, predatored etc. You could get something much cheaper that does tye same thing. Then again mags are unique.
