Nosswill out
Nosswill played for GER in the NWWC and is also playing for Asatro since 2 weeks, so I don't know why you would take him of the list. What I have seen from spec against your team is that he was one of the main reasons why we won that match on sunday in the tournament.
Yeah that is your opinion Nightwing. I'm just giving mine, and I don't think Noswill is (at the moment) good enough to be compared to those players!
There is nothing wrong with having an opinion about something, but I'm interested in your point of view and examples apart from "He is not good enough!". Maybe you can share some of them with me (via Steam would be also fine as well ofc )
[/quote]Yeah off course my friend.
All the people around him in that list are people that I consider as scary when I face them. Those people have, in my opinion, a big influence in the matches they take part in - not only in terms of kills taken, but also in more general terms such as solidity, blocking, intelligence etc...
I sincerely watched only 1 Germany NWWC match, which was in the groups, and I haven't really been impressed by him, but I might have missed some great things coming from him in those matches.
But regimentally or whenever I face him, I don't have that thing that tells me "this guy scares me I should watch the stabs I release against him". You took the example of Asatro, and I honestly don't remember facing him, when I would have remembered you, Phoenix or even Twister, because you guys have a clear influence on your teams playstyle.
Anyway, I have already said it multiple times, but this type of lists is cool to give opinions about players, but it is even better to have ego boosts. Stockholm sharing us his opinion is a good thing. Ledger also did it in the past, Herishey, Sir-follkas, Chuckster, Mightypain, Haze/Extazz did it, I also did it. We all tried to be as impartial as impossible, but this is humanly impossible. Unless it is not based on real facts (on tournaments won, like Tardet and Tibérias did), those lists can not be taken as a ranking between the players.
So, to come back on Stockholm's list, people giving their own opinion is a good thing and it is cool to share our thoughts between some players. But I don't think Stockholm should be changing the rating of the players because he is influenced by others giving their opinions. I consider Nosswill shouldn't be here, but Stockholm shouldn't remove him because "Fotin said he is not good enough". No, if he does that, we are coming to an overall opinion list of the community, and we are only trying to make the most accurate possible list just to please everyone.
Untill 2 years ago, I used to be really mad when I wasn't rated well. My ego is still hit when I see I am only a "Top 50" today (eventhough I consider it accurate). But at the end, the things that matter the most is that you enjoy playing NW and the tournaments results.
Just to resume in two words, those lists are in my opinion "ego wars", and this shouldn't be taken seriously as it is others opinions and this can't be judged.
So for Nosswill's case, what I'm saying is that if I were Stock, I wouldn't have put him there. But I don't think Stock should be influenced by others opinions. He should maybe make some updates every week, but shouldn't try to make the most accurate list since it looses all the charm of giving his own opinion.

Well, only the first paragraph is the answer of your question, Nightwing
