Regarding your skill, right now you are doing very well, but you are an experienced, good player, and I wouldn't classify you among the strong ones... Against 90% of the forum you have very high chances of winning...
Take Pitz, Maretti, Gomungulus and play a game against them. On their template (check out Jebus Cross from Maretti...). 8xm8a from Gomungulus. I'll say right away that you are a top player. (Although I think you don't care about the opinions of others, especially anyone in particular...)
But Kilgor played against Maretti in FB6... I saw those games. And Maretti won both on wild luck, although he was so far behind in tempo that in FB main vs main, with Kilgor's skill in battles, his chances were almost 0.
Game 1: he jumped and killed the Machina on the Shoal. Game 2: Kilgor didn't have enough time on Jebus and he crashed with all the skeletons... So, regarding Kilgor's skill, he is a top player and he can give trouble to the strongest players, while ordinary players without an advantage cannot beat him... That's why I'm so categorical...
PS: Of all the newcomers (first game less than a year ago in Heroes 3), I would definitely single out Kilgor (his skill grew from 0 to a top player). I watched the games of everyone listed above and didn't see anything supernatural... But anyway, all the guys are great.
I didn't write anything about my own skill at all, and I am perfectly aware of the level I am currently playing at. I have no habit of either living in a fantasy world or downplaying myself. And, yes, essentially I "don't care about the opinions of others, especially anyone in particular", because it's all subjective. I am amazed by the CATEGORICAL NATURE. "I saw Kilgor's game, he almost beat Maretti twice, and therefore he is a top player" — sorry, but that's ridiculous. Hellight has beaten Maretti, Gomungulus, etc. Maybe 1 or 2 times, but that's not the point. He still won, right? Darkello almost beat Cobra in a tournament, and Cobra was pleasantly surprised by Darkello's play. I beat ProtoS Arhon and God, lost to Javdet twice "almost" and to Piterius — I gave those games away on minor details, just lacked experience at the key moment. What am I getting at? I am in no way diminishing Kilgor's skill or anyone else's. Just don't be so categorical, that's all.
Why measure dicks in this thread? This is a nomination; the winner is determined solely by voting, and what criteria people vote by is another question. So don't argue, and instead wait for the outcome to see how it ends :)
I completely agree.
P.S. Tvaryna advertised himself perfectly.
Tvaryna is a well-promoted brand, indeed. :cool:
