not really

Despite the simpleness of the game there are still so many idiots who cant press the buttons properly.

CeLt are you serious!?

he was never any good, I'll give him some credit he was a better shit talker than me, and thats a feat :D apart from that he was never worthy of anything more than a yew gate gank squad.

Armstrong hasnt been mentioned he had some skills, no where near the best but his amusing attitude should elevate him quite bit :)

Armstrong was awful really ;/

I made him run while on 2/4, while he had fc4/5

Pic of Arm dying 1v1 to Benn on I-C frontpage, he can't have been that great:/ That's like dying to me on puremage.

Armstrong is wank solo, CeLt was underated tho, even tho he was an AoS noob, I found him harder to fight than PAD initially.

you serious?

PAD in my eyes was so much better, CeLt was just a yew gate runner, maybe I'm just that good :P

CeLt was the superior dueler initially, honestly. I never rated either on the field, but once PAD got good at dueling, his field skills improved, and hes one of the better fighters on Europa, probably more so now than ever, Id go as far to say as hes better than me - i just havent seen him in action over the last year.

A lot of the people named, imo, are nothing more than duelers. Very few have the knowledge and such on the field as the 'best' need.

Darkstar and Vix were both nobodies at the start of AOS, an absolute joke, Darkstar was still very much a joke until he joined AI, both have improved significantly, Vix much earlier.

I never heard of Wofl till p16 - then I didnt know his char names, but yes, he is one I do rate, though what a fag for playing a dismount tamer :)

I dont really know much about Linus or the other dudes to comment.

Athena was a rl gay, did come into his own, but as far as Im aware hes a noone again?

Just my opinions

I guess different ppl appreciate different abilities, would be dull if we all thought the same :)

Actually, I remember one name, Marie Robinsphere(sp?), okay the person isn't amazing - first person to beat me in AoS (when I just returned after quiting in anger^^) I think, and he was one of the nicest and most honorable pvpers in AoS for me, was in Order of the Serpants guild I think.

Also, as far as DF is concerned, dueling wise, Blackdragon, Conny and Nolita are the only ones worth a mention.

I'd also have to say Stephanius as well, although hes not an out and out pvper by his own admission, hes only real dexer on the shard that is griefy to kill.

Just a few of the names that stuck out in a few screens I had a squint at :)

When you think about it, theres tons of good players really in their own little way that are usually overlooked, cus tons of players are over-rated imo

dunno really, was kind of a piss take of Blade Spirits from ELR, and whilst we are mentioning DF, theristis wasnt bad at duelling and ten-lo had moments of greatness although his ego was far bigger than his ability, sounds like me I guess :s
