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*

Kbroke makes me laugh-- its good to know someone who generally sucks can still make it on the list. Don't start kicking him now after 2000+ games. Hes on a role.

Speaking of Huymac, I think kbroke's  (yeah, they are like 2 sides of same coin of suckiness) review should be rewritten. It's far too positive. Recently kbroke has been acting up and IMO should be kicked on sight.
End of Mecha-Lenin's quote

HuyMac can be a pretty good player when he's actually trying, although he's unfortunately prone to bouts of eccentricity. (example: I played with him and kbroke on the opposing team, jbaum (my team) Embargo'd Huy's HW, instead of moving his fleet to fight off the Sova, Huy just said to kb "he's stealing income again, feed me")

But when he's playing seriously he can be a force to be reckoned with - while not near the top of the 5v5 regulars, he's definitely not near the bottom either.

kbroke though just plain doesn't understand (or doesn't like to use) many of the good common strategies on ICO, and frequently loses because of it, and is much less of a threat than HuyMac.

That's a list of players who are relatively active or worth mentioning who aren't already on the list and have played hundreds of games.

Reply #729 Top

I was talking more about his attitude in game  than skill. He recently ruined 5v5 by stealing our eco players planets and kept saying something like "STFU noobs I need moar planets". Plain stupidity and no team play- I don't think he should be allowed into team games. Maybe he should just play against AI.

lol he must have hit puberty.

Sorry guys, I was gone for a couple weeks.  I'll try to look this over.  Agreed with kbroke, he was even acting up a month or so ago.

Your a host without mercy. He just played a 1.33 replay recently and didn't do anything. From a smurf and new player kicker to hating on someone who is a long lasting player on ICO being off now and then . Stand up for little kbroke? Hes always there when you need him and he doesn't smurf. Your a perfect example of a communist ICO.

All: If you could, please provide reviews of some of the players mentioned.  I prefer to get feedback from the community when developing this list.

 

RiddleKing:  I can always count on you for a good laugh.

Reply #736 Top

ok, a few things to do on this list:

  1. write a better reivew for me
  2. take itchy's review for tier 2 and move it to tier 1, adjust if necessary
  3. higgy to mia tier?  i don't play enough to know if he plays anymore.
  4. Krath to tier 1 from mia tier.

_|~Krath:  A seasoned ICO veteran who has been in and out of the community for a number of years.  Whenever he is actively playing, he is a top notch player.  He is a big fan of the Sova Embargo rush as TEC, and also likes to use the Marza in hopes of getting missile barrage.  He also experiments with Vasari from time to time and there are few who doubt that if he puts the time in effort into Vasari, he will soon master the race.  A terrific macroer, the only thing that holds him back is that he occasionally suffers from sloppy micro.

End of Nightraid3r's quote

Krath is a regular on ICO nowadays, at least when I've been on.

I've seen Higgy around as well. He's not MIA but he isn't on very often.

Starplayer:

He invented sova rush , burn in hell for that. Can play all races very well but he is master of Tec ( as tec is strongest race)

Great teamplayer. He wont hestitae to risk his fleet if its gonna benefit the team.  Agrresive  player with great micro.

Also noone can troll the forum with such grace as he does.:D

He is also vice president of Smurfs Club.

 

Reply #739 Top

Pretty sure KoK was one of the earliest sova rushers.  He doesn't often get credit for much but he did do that way back in the day.

he may have done it first, but i was the first one to do it right (not that i am proud i did anymore, its a disgusting world where people do this strategy too much)

Perhaps it would be time to update this thread a bit....

With me on it  :rofl:

Reply #742 Top

There are lots of needs.  If someone can do the work, I wouldn't mind updating.  I'm too busy working, with family, or playing.

I feel so old and rusty. Time to get rid of the cobwebs and show you guys what's what. The scout master has returned!

Welcome back Amish.  I have your old writeup on my computer :)

 

Reply #748 Top

How many times does it have the word "Scout" in it?

Reply #749 Top

From my archive:

[DT]Raging Amish - Amazing player, with lightning fast counters.  Very knowledgeable in combat mechanics and loves to use scouts; it is not uncommon to see 30+ scouts with him early game.  Especially good with Advent.

I played my second online game against Itchynail.  He crushed me and 3 other players.  He was polite and answered some of my questions.  (Which has improved my play dramatically.   :grin: )  So 3 cheers for you sir.  And thank you for your help.  It was much appreciated.
