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*

Reply #779 Top

sigh, 1v1s in sins are boring :/ but we can have a few if you wish

Reply #780 Top

Kenn belongs at the top tier, he is plain scary.

Bloodlust may be a smurf, but he is also a top tier player.

Kenn is already on this list... see [DT]JohnJames

Reply #782 Top

Interesting...other players I've seen that are really good are PlayerSlayer and Champ. Do they go by other names as well?

Reply #783 Top

Ah didnt know Kenn was JohnJames, that figures.

Also, I second Carpetbomb.  Played a couple games with him yesterday, he is very solid.

Top Tier should be for those that can consistently win playing as all races, not just vas loyals/rebels. Sad that so-called top players only know how to play a sixth of the game competently. Auqia, playerslayer, starplayer and others I may have forgotten were exceptions in this regard

I'd agree with this if "random" was the only way to pick race.  Players that focus on a single race can be just as formidable (or more so) than players that have mastered multiple.  I would agree that players that are equally masterful with multiple races should get some special mention though.

Reply #786 Top

Personally, I don't play on ICO games with enough frequency to be masterful at all the races.  I am great at 1/3 of the factions in game, and good at the other 2/3.  Yet my mindfuck techniques still work quite well with all the races :).  

The special mentions are already out there, and by the way auqia noticeably weakens in ability the second he gets employed, just an FYI.  Playing perfectly takes a lot of time and dedication and you really notice a drop in precision play if you miss a few days of playing.

Agreed. But this may simply be because they play an op race, with no knowledge of how to play other races competently. To my understanding this is a 'skill' based thread, rather than a thread about 'who can best exploit an op race'.

I think players should be rated on how well they play all races, rather than by giving a generic review that doesn't really tell much about their gameplay. A better way might be to give players a score out of 10 for each race, and then place them in respective tiers based on said scores. This would give a truer reflection of player skill imo.

I still find it hard to believe this thing is still floating around.

Reply #793 Top

howthe... please make some major adjustment and align the current roster to its original time frame. Thank you!

Reply #794 Top

Nah...if you are going to change it, make it current and accurate...

Reply #795 Top

I am not on it either.

Such a travesty XO

Reply #796 Top

How should do an updated list with new categories including "Legacy" players.  Then have it be community poll.

Reply #797 Top

In a way I'm kind of tempted to have a list that is only Rebellion....one not messied up by names of people who played Diplomacy (or prior) but don't play Rebellion...

Furthermore, be nice to use the names people use now instead of old names...

Help him out by at least compiling a list of current active skilled players:

Aquia,Krath,Tyr (Brando),Ooloo,Howthe?,Dead Rat,JBaum,Doci,Faernal,Multiz,DumDeeDum,Red Ruby,CMB (smurf),BrainDead,Seleuceia,Slackah,Serak Warriors,Kbroke,KoK/Lilze/various smurf names,JakeMac,CarpetBomb,VeteranCorp,Nayru,WarNeverChanges (various smurf names),PlayerSlayer,DieHard,Mossy,Singleton.AeonX,Archa-Ra,New Player, Candido, Eros/Aries, Higgy and Dwish to a lesser frequency, yours truly...

Probably missing some obvious and not so obvious entries...random recollection off the top of my head of people I see fairly regularly and recently that I've played with or against.

Reply #800 Top

Hiroge...possibly ColdFront...Nayru for sure...WhiteChapel/Jezeus if he still plays...kfear...daknife...Disgruntled Worker (don't know if he plays as different name or what)....Efejao or whatever it is...maybe Panther...maybe Joe...Whippersnapper (if he still plays)...

If I think of others I'll list them...
