Because you're a filthy pub player with no friends.
Man that shit really feels bad.

Nah, I'm pretty great at all games. Got to Masters in LoL before getting banned, which is a Herculean task in of itself.

Apparently not the ones that use that phrase.

Pub or Random is a common phrase to refer random teammates in games with matchmaking. So I suppose you haven't done random group stuff?

Younger me in my early 20's thought if I get a proper gaming mouse with the adjustable DPI and a gaming mouse pad, I could slowly crawl my way up some FPS games such as Tribes 2, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, Team Fortress 2, Unreal Tournament, PlanetSide 2, etc. I was given a rude awakening of just how much better other players can be when I would often die before I even realize another player is in my sights.

That said, despite being on the receiving end, it never ceases to amaze me when some player snipe me out of the air in Tribes 2 with a Spinfusor. I think Titanfall mighta been the only FPS that I felt I had some decent chance at. When it comes to 2D fighting games, my friends can easily stomp me but they said despite the hundreds of hours they play Street Fighter, Marvel vs Capcom, etc. other players who puts in thousands of hours would stomp them.

I suck at single player games. At least with multiplayer of any kind, your team might be able to make up for any shortcomings. I found this out playing Splatoon 2 at the state fair.

I'm still good at some online games. I've never been good at fighting games at high-level play though, even in my "prime".

Pub means "public game".
Pug is the MMO term meaning "pick-up group".

Two different things.
