I would swap me and ap0c as the only time we faced in a 1v1 he beat me 7-6, although 1v1's aside I have a lot of wins in tournaments besides 1v1s

For the FKI

In no order exept for the first person who is by far #1 since he did get the rank of Garde which was our monthly tournament for the best meleer

Pointblank
DarthJezus
Ramzey
Coconut
GlMan
Zach Attack
Slick
Gooner
Mack
Mustard

hell even Millander is good in melee, although since he lived in california he would consistintly get 100+ ping, but he did decent with a sword in most lbs

tell me your top 10 melee'rs of all time

mine, all this rating nonsense aside, and in no particular order

Jackie, Tammo, Lithios, Asian, Havoc, Pointblank, Botvinnik, Coconut, SilentMan, and RitZ

(This list is not in order, and I dont think I really could order it tbh)

Not sure where you'd put him nor if anyone remembers him but dante was quite good in my opinion. The last time I entered a 2v2s infantry tournament with him 2 years ago he carried my 120+ cali ping ass all the way essentially 1v2ing everyone.

I don't really know any of the new infantry leaders of the past year or so though so cant speak much for that but otherwise looks like a pretty decent list

Er...Dont get me wrong. Dantes not bad. But I dont think hes ever done anything of note, or made a real impression on anyone. Thats just to my flawed knowledge, though.

Also about grims leaders list, the adjustments id make:

Tico/Breaches > Karth/Offizer.

Reasoning: Tico/Breaches reign lasted pretty much as long as NW has been out. 2ndQF, 12th, 18th, doesnt matter. Theyve always been there and most of the time were at the top.

Replace Mack with Darth

Reasoning: I fucking love Mack. But im pretty sure Darthjezus was our (9y) main line leader. Pretty sure the leadership for 1v1s was mostly Darth, Ramzey, Saltyy, and sometimes myself.

Cheesey moved down abit (to just above Ody, imo)

Reasoning: Ive talked about this more in depth on the EU vs. NA thread, much to the salt of ex-71st. I just feel Cheesey is abit overrated. Good, sure, but before Jackie and his whole host of rigged melee that made the 71st a force, he was practically nobody.

Millander rating changed to 90

Reasoning: I think its quite easily forgotten how dominate the 1stFKI were. They were a dominating force in 2013, easily best NA until the great sundering of the NBA2k13 happened, and the gftrs revolted and formed 9y.

Alexander rating changed to 87-88

Reasoning: I think hes very underrated. Hes a great leader, line leading wise and charisma wise. If you hadnt heard the "year of underdogs" speech in the NA community, youve been under a rock. Hes also a very talented groupfighter, and you cant deny hes accomplished some pretty great things.

"A Year of Underdogs"

http://vocaroo.com/i/s0hfuHI8OmaR

A YEAR, A YEAR OF UNDERDOGS! A YEAR OF UNDERDOGS, WE WON THIS SHIT! FUCK THEM ALL, FUCK THE 18TH, FUCK THE 63E, FUCK THE 3EVOLT, FUCK THE 71ST...WE ARE THE BEST DAMN REGIMENT IN THE GAME BOYS!

[close]

Waste rating changed to 79-80

Reasoning: Just as its easy to forget how strong the FKI were, its easy to forget the Nr37. You gotta remember, Waste was a pretty dang good leader. He was doing pretty well, even before Asian started helping him out as far as leadership goes.

Remove Armystrong

Reasoning: He was never that good tbh ;L.

Very true in that he didn't do many community organized things. Just like myself he saw the community as mostly edgy teenage memelords so we stuck to casual play,
But I still cant help but wonder how high up he still was since he was one of the most reoccurring clutchers I've ever played with. the only real thing I can go off was the 2v2 tourny 2 years ago where he carried us to the finals by himself, and he actually beat yourself and crunchs team when you were KievGren in the first match vs us. Of course I cant speak for how effective/good you guys were 2 years ago, but I can assure you atleast I was utterly useless and had to just hope I didnt dc or teamkill.

But I digress, he's gonna start playing again now that were going competitive so we might just have some more to go off pretty soon here  ;)

Here's my take (And the take of a few others) on the overall melee list, I don't mean to offend anyone. Note: If people are the same overall it means they are equally skilled.

Some 8th Kings Meleers :)
- Jay
- Planned Parenthood
- Clemmet
- Alcaro
- Irish
- Creed
- Nutslapper
- James
Good players, however, in the overall scope of NA NW history I don't think they make the list. Making tier 3 in this list is hard in and of itself. Each player on this list was raw at one point in time.

You mean which meleer spend the most time on na groupfighting and starting salt everywhere so their name is known, rip. I have immense respect for alot of meleers on that list, but some of them are barely capable againts some unknown meleers i know now and in the past.
