Wild Card Tier: I don’t know what goes on in these people’s heads, but they play on Sins enough to be on here. These guys have been playing for so long, you wonder why they don’t quite get it. Sometimes they’re good, sometimes they aren’t. Usually they’re always one trick ponies.
_|~Sire/KoK/King of Kodiaks/LiLZe/Kodiak_King - Tier #3 if he doesn't goof off.
kbroke - Tier #2 if he isn't on drugs or drunk, which is 99.9% of the time.
HuyMac - Tier #2 if he doesn't "Experiment".
Predator (WFU) - Tier #2, but lately he is just plain awful and I would rather pick a noob that know how to listen that to pick this guy.
And Candido's Team Player Edition
When these people are on my team, I feel a victory will soon be added to my statistics, regardless of who is on the other team: Auqia*, HowThe*, Ooloo* (quar)
We really should have a victory but sometimes things can go wrong, especially if one of the aforementioned players is on the opposing team: Krath, Tyr, Doci, DieHard* (greg), Efejao*, Hiroge, Mecha-Lenin, Multiz*
Superior contributors to the team: jbaum*, RedRuby(BlueSaphire)(GreenEmerald)*, Ekko-Tek*, Dumdeedum*, Fallen_One*, DeceptivePanda (StarKiller), Nayru*, Eros(Specter)*, Higgy, jamex, Traxsin, Slavinari, Faernel*, CarpetBomb*, BagsX*, BrainDead
Good solid contributors to the team: Aeonx*, BooPoo*, SerakWarriors, Camaro*, Archa-A*, JakeMac, kbroke*, Ginisfurd, maxy, USNC, gondie, unname, Seleuceia, Dwish, ColdFront(Universe)*, Mavarik, Knewgui, Teun-a-Roonius, KFear, BoomUrDead
Well, it's a teammate: rabidturnip*
That may have been early on. They constantly improve, and are frequently top picks in 5s
I think you overestimate them a little. All of them are good, sure. But noone of them are tier 1 players.
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that they are tier 1 players, but I think several of them have shown strong tier 2 abilities.
I don't think anyone said they are tier 1, but consider how fast they are learning the game. They haven't been playing that long.
Also, player named Multipawn merits tier 2 in my opinion.
I actually knew this guy from way back when I ran a guild in Homeworld: Cataclysm (best RTS ever btw). Sound tactics, great team player, willing to learn. All the right stuff.
A good chunk of the Ironclad team came from that game actually.
I was away on vacation for two weeks. If I missed anything, let me know.
hmmmmm i wonder what happen to the MIA list ?cause my name is coming off!
And you are???
i've been looking for you in the lobby howthe.its KingDeathGod(Kingdante ect) you remember the guy with worse spelling and grammar in the game.
i'm pretty rusty but ill should get back in gear pretty quick. i've already played some of your tier 2 players. I don't know did rebellion made people soft on the game or what ?ps i can't believe we still have mini-dumps! i got hit with 3 today
Ah yes, I do remember. Yeah, the friends system now makes it harder to find people. Also, the MIA list was abandoned as I didn't have time to keep it up to date, same thing about descriptions.
Is there a Gold List for trolls/annoying people/really sassy, hoopy froods like me that gets updated regularly?
-Lord Brony
It got banned.
How about Neo[BRz]L？I see him.But it's a pity not to play with him.
Youre missing The Final Empire
If ColdFront and Ekko are on tier two its about time to put me there as well... (Also because Hiro is continually teasing me about the unthoughtful remark I made a few days ago). At least put me on the list too, I deserve that much!
I also miss VeteranCorp and OurTerra btw. Might be me being blind though...
Added you, Vet, Terra, Multiz, and Predator (WFU).
Prepare to be crushed on the battlefield the next time you find me not stuck in suicide spot...
Haha goes for me too Teun.
CF.
I crush ColdFront (Universe) every single game i've played with him so far even during my first week of the game. But I don't think I'm at the level of some tier 2 players yet so where should I go?
This list is pretty outdated imo.
I'd like to suggest having more tiers. The skill gap between players is to large for 3 tiers. There are players in each tier that can crush others that are in the same tier so this list is very misleading.
More tiers could help but it won't fix a few fundamental problems. What is player skill for the tiers based on?
Right now it is based on, at best, "educated guesses" along the lines of "yeah I played with him a few times and he was good". Talk to different people and you'll get different answers and different impressions of players. Sometimes players get map-fucked, sometimes their teammates let them down, sometimes they just plain suck for a few games, sometimes they get lucky. There's a couple tier1s I consistently beat or can match and some tier2s and 3s I've lost to more than once. There are lots of players on this list I've only come up against 1v1 once or twice at the most. I imagine it's the same for most others.
The best way to judge and create more distinct tiers would be to have a tournament where everyone played 1v1 with the same race on the same map but I don't see that happening any time soon. So we're left with a list of educated guesses curated by Howthe?. Which, for the most part, accomplishes the goal of just trying to get somewhat balanced teams for 5v5. I just can't think of any way to make it more precise without some kind of tournament and even that would be just a snapshot in time. Hopefully Sins2 is gonna have an elo based automatch, which is usually the way you can tell who the better players are in RTS games.
I all know is that I'm pissed as fuck that I don't get my own tier....
Every official list on these forums has a Seleuceia tier....
