Since there is a lot of debate about the LG being a top contender for the all time regiments list I may as well put my input. As well Waste and I's leading.
I felt as though I did revolutionized some aspects of leading within linebattles. Before I joined the Neo-Nr37 (the baby cradle of the LG), I was experimenting and was very new to leading from the front. I've had plenty of experience from doing it from the back from previous regiments such as Ody's regiments and most notably the 71st. One of the aspects of linebattles that I felt that I help make the meta of 1v1 leading is the flank straight into the enemy and reform on the back of the officer. I never remember any leaders really using that as their mainstream tactic, not even the 3eVolt. It was a mixture of Cheesy's aggressive leading with Ody's "left flank" and "right flank" stuff that Cheesey never used. This greatly helped out maneuvered enemy lines for the most part and did especially well against the stronger regiments during the time of the LG. I began to see over the months the exact same tactics that I described many regiments that I faced before began to use them. They will of course say "No I didn't learn them from you" but in all honesty I don't remember doing those type of line movements before.
As well for another thing I was relatively successful for not being one of the hill camping leaders. I only hill camped if the enemy did or I was just outmatched in melee (which was rare). While some of the leaders in the elite tier and high tier had to use tactics of shooting across the map and wheeling on a hill and claiming it "requires leading skills," which is absolutely false. When I face people who could truly lead in close combat I respect those leaders such as Cheesey and scorn those who did like Karth. I've lost many rounds while doing this but gained the respect of my members not wasting their time and trying to make 1v1's as fun as possible as they should be. Not a game of who has no life and doesn't have to wake up tomorrow.
Now here is the reason why the LG should be on the all time regimental list. It was the regiment to beat during 2017. I felt as though we were the main drive of the competitive community and I do remember the 3eVolt saying to me before that the only reason why they stayed was because we put up such a fight. With impressive groupfighting and individual skill we won NANWL S7 and really only lost NAPL S1 because we got cheated out of it when the 6te disbanded. We came in 2nd place in NARGL (which it was either us or the 3e), but put up a fight until the end. Through literally sweat and tears Waste and I held the regiment together through the summer as we came back and forth from winning and losing in either Linebattles or groupfights against the 3eVolt. By the end, I proved we were a regiment to be remembered. Whether or not if you liked it or not, the LG was one of the best regiments in NW, even before the merger between us and the 45e.
Since I did mention that I think a lot of 3eVolt members have been waiting for me to address the "super drama" that we had between our regiments. I'll tell the "whole story" from our side and if people want to argue back with me about this on FSE you're wasting your time. Sometime in early July in the middle of the night Waste and I have gotten a message from the 85e (45e name at the time due to Nappy leaving the regiment) asking whether or not we wanted them to merge into us. If anything guys, Waste was probably the best at saying we shouldn't have never done it being the only Nay vote out of the three of us (Myself, Yoshie, and Waste). I think I said this on my podcast but I'll say it again since people are misusing my words, at the time the 3eVolt just had better players and were gaining more from how I saw it not from their side. So if I turned down those 85e guys my biggest fear was some of them joining the 3e for not letting them in. Which the 3eVolt probably would've loved to gain the adavantage even taking in 3-5 of those players. So that's my reasoning for letting them in and I'll explain the drama part. Apparently some night later within that week Chantakey, that little shit, came on and started to escalate shit against the 3e after we beat them in that big 35v35 gf. He began looking up people's facebook profiles and began to shitpost. It didn't help that the 45e guys (Pinoy being the biggest) and others loved doing this kind of stuff, began to also jump in. If I did kick out those guys, they probably would've only made things worse probably harassing even more of you guys, having them in my regiment at least gave me some le way with them. I do feel awfully sorry for the pain that Asianp and Vortex got within that time because before all that shit the 3eVolt and the LG had a friendly rivalry and we played a lot of games together before July of 2018. But what I did kept my regiment together and if I did anything drastic as to kick all of those guys it would've made it only worse for everyone.
That there is the ONLY reason why the LG is being held back from making the all time regiment list as I've been reading through the previous pages.
Nothing I do now will ever change what happened in the past, if anything, I would have never let in the 45e guys if I knew what they were going to do. I won't be surprised if I get messaged saying "YOU'RE A TRAITOR TO THE CAUSE" or whatever the fuck you guys did in the past. Everyone that did participate in that should just feel ashamed. Making jokes in teamspeak were enough but doing it just to harass others is just fucking wrong.
Now that I've gotten that part out of the way I'll give my final assessment on the LG. I was proud of nearly every member that joined and gained and respected many as some of our friendships online still continue to today. Our skill was only matched by the regiments that are currently on the all time regimental list and in all reality if we could clone the exact person and put them in both regiments we could take the 71st and below. The Old 3eVolt and the 12th were just too good from how I remember it but I feel confident about beating everyone else. Take this post with a grain of salt and if you do respond about the drama part of the LG I will just ignore you as that is now in the past and we should all move on.
P.S. If you were to include the LG, by all means also include the 58e. Even though I still hate them to today they were still a great regiment to face while I was in the 71st.
Also I hate Civ 6 as a game but it does have the best title music of all the civ games.
