Absolutely not

If I can do that, those names would absolutely destroy the place.

I would pay for 10 substitutions for a month for the chaos that would ensue 🥵🫢🫢🫢🫢


Especially for some of those humble yet hungry gents who taught just as much as the murdered lol

[DmonSlyr]

Wow, seeing all these names brings back so many memories. Is KOTH no longer a thing?

Hey Skychimp, long time! No Koth takes someone to run it and most just don't have the time and/or know how to effectively run it. Good times though for sure.

I created a list of all players who have achieved #1 fighter rank since tour 12 - 300.  Only 86 names have achieved #1 fighter rank. There has only been one tie in tour 13. This is based on player name vs tour only.




Player   Tours at #1 figher rank
atlau           53
Violator   19
Fester   18
Grizz           15
TonyJoey   14
Snailman   14
Bruv119   11
KillnU   7
Rud3boi   7
crowMAW   6





Top K/D winning #1 - TonyJoey - 163.2 - Tour 173

Top K/S winning #1 - Bruv119 - 13.06 - Tour 146

Top Hit% winning #1 - DragonH5 - 28.7 - Tour 149

Top K/H winning #1 - KaTnip - 23.4 - Tour 76

Top Points winning #1 - KillnU - 187,899.77 - Tour 84

Longest tour streak at #1 - altau - 40

I find it depressing that I never see my name on these list, heck I should get an "honorary mention" for letting everyone shoot me down so much!   

Same here Fugi,,, think we need to start a list of Favorite Players who can kinda fight and get killed alot but also Have a Blast fighting.

Statistical dweebery has never been impressive Violator, no matter how much it strokes the ego.

I was going to say the same thing, but I'm trying to be nice as I age and get ready for the grave.

Some of the guys on that list were still good though. Some I'm not familiar with. Back in the early days when the dual ladder things were going on with good numbers, you'd get to see who was really good 1v1

There's some stat whoring and usually tons of time dedicated to being no1 in any category, but also MA skills are a thing too. Being able to kill and land them. Bit that it kind of what most people started to do - so no more furballs.... and tons of BnZ tools.

It does show a flying discipline that most including myself do not have

Interesting you'd say that after posting your own stats and referring to top players dominating them if they were here. In anycase, this is just the systems top 10, Doesn't make them the "best ever" (though I think some are). Top 10s are generally up for interpretation as most havent played all 25 years and fought against everyone. I do disagree with your stance though, while it may be "dweebery" Its still the games scoring system and someone has to be #1 even if no one tried. To achieve the #1 spot you still have to show top MA flying understanding for that tour and statistically have the better overall ranks in each category to win. Sure a player can try to game it in easy planes, but thats just the current system for you. The ability to achieve that over and over again, such as Atlau with 40 in a row (along with #1 attack every time too) shows a level of dedication and MA understanding that is extremely rare. The earlier top #1s with Grizz vs Bruv vs TonyJoey looked very competitive. I was a bit surprised myself after pulling the #s. But I'll admit when I returned after missing 08-13 for university, the competition wasn't as stiff and many had left so I was able to pull it off with minimal hours played. I can bet you I had the least 262 or 5 eny planes to achieve it though.

There is also a difference between skills in 1v1, MA, and AvA special events. Just because someone is great is 1 category, doesn't mean they are the best in the other. They are all learned and practiced disciplines. Many players on that list were infact pretty damn good at all 3 though.

And then you whined and cried about not being able to get #1 due to playing time when Skyyr was here

I pulled them up to prove that a pilot who is sub standard to those great pilots can pull what would have been impressive stats in the passed is not impressive these days  And completely purposefully missing the point with the only goal to passive aggressively call me a hypocrite without having the balls to say it straight out is a little too see through.

Lets get down to the simple; You think you're one of the greats don't you. In your head you are an AcesHigh living legend. However, legends/greats are picked by the people around them, not by you posting anything you can find that you use to quantify yourself as a legend/Great. Like Skyyr, you're going to have to come to terms that the people pick Legends/Top 10s, not you no matter how much you've convinced yourself you're great, and you're not in mine not even close.

False.

Well, if those #s are from any time in the last year, they aren't sub standard at all...

You did say  you added Kappa to your list when he beat you at #1, correct? So again, I figured you'd be amused by the systems #1 fighter ranked pilots especially when you provided your own stats. I did the analysis for my own amusement as well. I was just suprised to see your comment. Not calling you a Hypocrite but you merely counterdicted your positions the way I saw it.

Comparing today's #s with those of decades ago isn't a correct assessment. Player count in the arena makes a huge difference and therefore will enhance those #s with more to shoot at with larger fights througout the day. For example even getting a 10 K/S and getting #1 today would be extremely difficult and not comparative to say 2011 when it was more achievable due to hundreds more in the arena.

I don't believe we've ever really fought. Therefore your opinion on my level is just an opinion, and thats okay. As I stated, top 10s are an opinion mostly. Shoot I never fought Levi or Drex even in the MA. They were before my time.  I just thought it would be interesting to see all the #1 Fighter ranks throughout the years and make a top 10 of winning the most tours. You don't have to get angry about it.

Good, you understand, now apply it to everyone else.


We have fought before, it's not as such a rare occasion as you would believe.


Kappa was memorable not just because of the stats, but because its memorable. I'd been shot down by him a number of times before, sorry I didn't type out 220 paragraphs of the history of every fight and furball prior to prevent you trying to pull this lame see through bulchit. Keywords just jog memories and I type them as I think them.

Did you need a safe space?

Uh okay whatever, it's just these #s are backed by figures that were measured by the MA scoring system month over month and aren't based on someone's FPH status. Whether anyone thinks they are top 10 is up to them..

Hey, there's all my tours if you want go through and see the "dweeby statistics" lol. My first time was winning a bet with Kruel to prove how easy it was in a Temp. I don't hide behind attack mode and probably have less perked under 10 eny planes than almost anyone, so I don't understand where all this vitriol is coming from...
