Why create this thread?
Simply stated, the ladder is generally not the best depiction of skill, imho. It GENERALLY tracks who plays the game the most and/or who acts like a jerk by cheating instead of who the most talented players are. That's not to say that everyone high up in the ladder falls into this category. So, if I were to put together my own ladder that indicated skill, I wonder how things would shake out. Obvious hurdles being that many highly skilled individuals don't play each other. So, this requires either the people that don't play together to play more together (my personal choice) or I have to rely from feedback from other players.
Your part if you want to participate
Who do you guys think are the best players in demigod today? I understand that its a team game, but individual players do tend to stand out (and I also know that one great player can't guarantee a win if he has weak teammates, etc). I'm happy to have everyone's feedback. I'm not looking for people to jump in and flame. Just call out who you think is great or who you'd like to see fight. Perhaps we'll get games going. You want to flame and talk crap, your post will probably end up deleted.
You can nominate anyone you want. To keep this from being a list of who likes who, several individuals that are generally considered excellent at the game will moderate the list. If those individuals generally agree, a player can be removed or promoted in the list.
I've decided on 4 categories of players and have provided descriptions of each. Please recommend players along with the category you feel they fit in.
Tier 1 Demigod Players:
Realistically, its my belief that there are 10-30 players in this game that are tier 1 DG players (the best). Those players shine as individuals, generally with a wide variety of characters and do not depend on a specific team or teammate to do well. They can play exceptionally in 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, and 5v5. These are players that do not cheat or desync games. These are the people that you want on your team or you want to play against because you know you will get a good game. Any player in this list or any other should currently be an active player.
Tier 2 Demigod Players:
These are players that don't quite currently fit into highest level of players, but are good players all the same. Perhaps they require a specific team or can only do well in specific types of games (1v1, 2v2). The bottom line is that they aren't quite as polished or versatile as the highest level players.
Tier 3 Demigod Players:
A third group (or list) would be everyone else. No need to list individuals...
Demigod Players that Should Be Avoided:
These would be specific individuals that clearly (and I mean clearly) cheat. You don't get on this list unless I (pacov) am VERY convinced that you belong here.
I would like to ask about Chur86. I played with him some time and each time he's loosing, when the citadel is down he just quit. Maybe he try to do invalid or bug game that doest count. Just want to know if u get this when u played with Chur86. If yes, maybe put him on person to be avoid !!
If this "quit" when the citadel is destroy does no crash, game doesnt count or invalid, then i apologise for this. Otherwise, avoid him to previent invalid and game crash.
You're too late here Cow, I've already exclaimed that you can't argue with results.
Can we look forward to team Jona/Ninki if there is another tournament?
Haha, aawwwwww man you're gonna make me cry and beg . No, you've barely played with or against me, from T1 i've only played semi-frequently with Hedgie and Cow, cos they're the only who "go down your pedestals" to play PUG games. And Cow has proposed me for T1 a pair of times already, but nevermind that.
Yes I did, myself . Pls reread my previous post, i don't think my english is THAT bad. But nevermind that, i'd rather be where i am or out of this silly list entirely, i just don't care.
just to chime in here... I haven't really made any changes to the list recently... I'm planning on waiting for the tourney to finish and then starting an overhall... or abandoning this silly list completely...
According to the Tier list GM still has a lot of members
Wow nom, I've never seen someone use the emoticon before.
Now someone needs to find a way to cleverly use this one:
The troll emoticon works well by itself if you don't feel like writing a paragraph long response to an obvious troll post. The pizza one makes me too hungry though.
That's a pizza?!
I thought it was a face covered in roses.
If pizza faces make you hungry, you should of seen me in Middle School. You'd be fuckin starving.
No way, you weren't always a toothpick?
I've played w/ and against all of those people you mentioned, and I pug games about as often as some people play this game altogether.
P.S. If I was trolling you it would be a lot worse. However, your posts are getting so ridiculous that your trolling is getting stupid and not worth replying to. At least say something worth reading.
I don't think I've seen a non-negative post from Rawr in a looooooooong time.
So you must have been really confused when you saw the code for it is ":pizza:"
I wish my brain was still so drugged up that "loooooooooong time" = a day.
Most of my negative comments are in reply to other negative comments. I generally take on the attitude of whoever is posting.
But no, its been like a week. Maybe you should be more drugged up.
Ouch! And kind of nasty =/.
I don't feel like replying to Rawwr and quoting every little thing because like you said he is always negative. It seems like the more times I beat him in balanced 3v3s the more mean he is to me. Alas ill just keep him muted like peterdumptruck =o.
Easy solution: Don't get into fights
Fun solution: Fight better
Sometimes you can't help it.
Lucky I'm the exact size right now that I was in middle school. I just shot up in size and build and...just kinda stopped. I was huge. Then...everyone else caught up by the end of High School.
But no.. it's been a day. I suppose people only see what they want to see.
Agreed tho, I should be more drugged up
You should of heard yourself last night. You RUINED the game for me with your constant bitching.
In fact, the day before you were bitching like a champ too.
I heard myself fine.. sorry if you got caught in between me and Peter. We played together more later on, appologized to each other, and we're fine, but I'm sorry if you're still upset over it. Everyone releases frustration in different ways. Again, I'm sorry Peter's / my way last night continues to bother you today.
But if this thread is turning into a "rawr sucks" thread, I suppose I'll vacate for a while so you can talk freely about me without my interruptions
Yeah, go Rawr somewhere else.
