duh Posted February 14, 2016 i think the community is pretty unaware of the competitive scene, we should make a list of best players by category, since the most played competitive modes in (and closest to) doom are duel and ctf, i can already think of a few, like: CTF Best capturer Best mid Best defense Best "jack of all trades" Duel Oldschool Newschool where newschool adds rocketjump (zdoom 1.22 impulse), jump and freelook (except for bfg). the tournaments looks like a good thermometer for now, discuss. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomkid Posted February 14, 2016 I'm worried such a topic would become a dick measuring contest, but as long as everyone stays civil, it should be okay. I don't know how exactly I would rank rank each of these players, the fact is "skill" is often swayed greatly depending on map selection and gamemode. Some honorable mentions that I personally know to be damn good: DemonSphere Jkist Devastation RoSking Ralphis Ru5tk1ng There are many, many Doomers missing from this list, but I know each of these players are damn good at racking up frags. Hopefully others will put a few names out there. 0 Share this post Link to post

Doomkid Posted February 14, 2016 MetalGuy213 said:maybe i don't know what does mean Mid and "Jack of all trades" That probably means you haven't had enough exposure to really know what players are out there. Mid is the person who sits between defense and offense to keep the middle protected. Here you have the opportunity to attack oncoming players as well as escort your flag carrier back to base safely. Jack of all trades is a common expression, meaning you aren't exactly a pro, but you can competently do a bit of any position, gamemode or playstyle. I don't think I'm qualified for "best", but that definitely represents me as a Doomer. I do a bit of everything.

Karakurt Posted February 14, 2016 Well just wanted to make a global thing but yeah should've made a "current" list too. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ru5tK1ng Posted February 15, 2016 Current lists are the only thing that matter. An all-time, global list doesn't mean anything especially when half the names in those threads you linked are so far removed from the game (and it was really all circle jerking to be honest). Even Capo's list has more legitimacy since it has a lot of current players. Oh well, good intentions I guess. ;0 0 Share this post Link to post

Oh well, good intentions I guess. ;0 As I told Razgriz the reason I didn't feel like making that list is because a good part (not to say most) of the competitive playerbase is gone, well that and the fact that some players (says Xsnake, Fluffles, Xaver) aren't reliable enough as they just come and go. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fluffles Posted February 15, 2016 Top players ive ever played against when dueling (2007-2013) Zdaemon: Turska, mortal, jkist3, devastation, gyrossman, titan, sniper, welkin, xsnake, sedlo, demonsphere, ilekallio, wabe Zandronum: Ivan, Ilekallio, Xaver, rosking, Nati, johnzombie, metal, watermelon, russiandumbass Odamex: Jkist3, Devastation, ralphis, demonsphere. Just a quick draft of what Ive experianced. Sorry I cant really help much in the last few years as I havent got the interest in dueling like I use to 0 Share this post Link to post

capodecima Posted February 18, 2016 CTF Best capturer: markub Best mid: Devisin Best defense: Kitty Best "jack of all trades": Bojan Duel Oldschool Bahdko Newschool Sandra-Krises Pimp: capodecima editAlso Decay this forum is finally cleansed of Capo's absurd posting, don't link to his ramblings, I didn't read beyond the first lines for the sake of my mental health... I dunno why you are so offended really. This is pretty much "joke" list i posted about CTF players on zan, but it somehow can be accurate sometime. After all competitive players making lists of best competitive players is somehow not the best idea. This is not csgo or ql where people which rank best players in game are pretty much impartial and dont play csgo or ql on pro level some not even competitive at all. I think the only good list about players which were ever made was from BahdKo. Seems be impartial for me and also based on experience she get in personaly meeting players and also knowing about game a lot. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dragonfly Posted February 18, 2016 I'm not much of a multiplayer kind of guy, but for the period I was trying to get more skill, and while I was an active ChaosCore member, I had my ass handed to me several times by RoSKing. My only vote goes to RoSKing. 0 Share this post Link to post

Zakken Posted February 20, 2016 With the CTF tournaments that are taking place this year, it'd be interesting if a dedicated few people grouped together to make a CTF power ranking of sorts for 2016. 0 Share this post Link to post
jdagenet Posted February 20, 2016 Two of the best duelers I know are ROSKing and iceykiller. My vote goes to them, even though icey doesn't play anymore. 0 Share this post Link to post
one_Two Posted February 23, 2016 Can only really comment on zan duels, from playing for a few years and observing my top ten are: 01. Fluffles 02. Shadowforce 03. Rosking 04. Capo 05. Ivan 06. NRM (maybe I'm confused, is this skinlanen?) 07. Jwarrier 08. Nati 09. Water 10. Xaver I've only beaten one person on this list :) 0 Share this post Link to post
