the best fighters
« on: January 24, 2013, 04:10:45 PM »
ok I know some don't like these topics and think it is chest thumping.....(you can call me a chest thumping DA-tard if ya want) ...but a few remarks in another thread got me thinking about it.....I am talking about pure Dog Fighting here.....NOT the ability to stay alive....(which has its own set of skillz)

my list of the best fighters in AH are as follows (not necessarily in any particular order or active.)

again this is MY OPINION from doing NOTHING but fighting in AH since tour 52



Fester- probably the best there is....exceptional in all aspects of fighting
Grizz- all around great flyer....exceptional Aim
Sunsfan- very hard to beat, knows E well....exceptional Aim
Bruv- very good flyer.......exceptional Aim
Redbull- excellent reaction time....great Aim
Krupinski- excellent stall fighter.....great Aim
Bighorn- excellent all around flyer knows all aspects of fighting exceptional Aim
Shane- very good stall fighter....Aim not so good....
Scotch- excellent stall fighter.....
Kappa-  can fly anything and be great in it....excellent Aim,
JOACH1M- very good reaction time, great Aim
Debrody- loves the stall fight..... excels at it
Lazer- all around great flyer......excellent Aim
Nath- great stick..... excellent Aim
JETSOM- excellent SA/merge......mediocre aim(yes I include myself, for I have beaten all these guys..... many of them, more then once:-)

I know there are more but my mind is drawing a blank for more names......when I think of them I will add them.


there are other players that I have heard are great but haven't fought them (or only fought them once)

IE
Kazza
Mtnman
levi
widewing



there are a lot of other players that excel in an individual plane

2cmex in the N1k
Olddemon in 51
AKAK in 38
Shuffler in 38
Greebo in F6
Shida in KI 84
Agent360 in 109
Shawk in F4U
SkyRock in F4U
Irishone in 190
Pervert in 190



so am I wrong?  how close is your list of best "fighters"

I challenge anyone who wants to get on that list to take me to DA and Prove they belong on it. :x :x :joystick: :joystick: :old: :old:............................. ............................. ............................. .... :t

I haven't been my best in years due to layoffs. Thank you for the nod though.

Batfink is one of the best.

 Hey Ink :)

 I agree with your list. lots of good pilots. I always used to get a little worried when a KI entered the fight, but the minute he gave up an advantage I would have a short sigh of relief that I knew it wasn't you haha. I learned to respect many planes I wrongly thought to be inferior due to almost everyone on that list and yourself kicking my ass. Once I get back to where I was ( if ever) I would be down to jump in the DA if I'm allowed to be in a Brewster. Ive killed Bruv and Sunsfan on your list... but was killed about 100 times by them.. soo..  :lol

 I will also never forget being in a P47 with complete advantage and YOU, at disadvantage, handing me my butt in your P51..  :salute

Is this list only active players?
I'd put Murdr on there if it isn't maybe even Del too.

good list

Tongs should be on there too I think

and LilMak maybe

hard for me to say as I am distinctly average..and I've probably forgotten some exceptional folks

Dolby is pretty damn good from where I am sitting...so are SQUAT and Junky...and you yourself ink
Did you see my dad on dogfights yet?

My list would be very similar, but I wouldn't personally put myself in that list, most if not all of those guys can and do own me.

However off the top of my head.. I would add nrshida, excellent merge/flying style, great at handling that ki slow as well  :aok

always up for some DA time :aok

Del yes another one I forgot..... :aok

Murdr I would put on the list of those I only heard about but never fought.....cuz....I never fought him :D

good list

Tongs should be on there too I think

and LilMak maybe

hard for me to say as I am distinctly average..and I've probably forgotten some exceptional folks

Dolby is pretty damn good from where I am sitting...so are SQUAT and Junky...and you yourself ink

I would put Dolby in the list of excels in 109....but honestly I find others far harder to beat....definitely not saying he is no good but I have fought him a lot.....
same with LilMak excellent P47 stick....
Tongs is good
SQUAT haven't fought
Junky have to fight him more to see


 :salute

pfft......trust me....you young whipper snapper you are for sure there......

and Shid is on the list in he excels at the KI84 not sure how well he does in rides other then that...and I actually haven't fought him enough to really gauge his skills....being able to "own" someone is the ability to beat them every time......that is owning....I highly doubt most on that list can "own" you :aok

seems like all these guys r in turny planes. what about E fighters who can also get in close too. arent they worthy? i like lilmak and messiah... but overall i like my CO Zensen, hes a true badass in every plane. but hes not a bbs guy or a 200 guy, so he doesnt attract a lot of attention. silent but deadly, like my feet. i hope not too long from now ill be a force to be reckoned with in the jugM. im progressing fast to the popular guys levels, but theyre are pretty dam good. i know i have my work cut out.

Shane- very good stall fighter....Aim not so good....


Heh, no duh!   :bhead

I can be a dangerous e-fighter when I want, but turning is more fun.

but yeah... the aiming thing...   :bhead   However, I have a ton of awesome snapshots, so the safest place for my opponent to be is my dead 12 and flying level - I can't hit them!  :bhead

none of the list are dedicated turny planes except me and maybe Nath.....they all excel at whatever plane they are in at the time....

I have fought Zensen...plenty :aok

E fighting is BOTH BnZ and TnB......both are using energy or not as it were.....

he was awesome :aok
