Most corps/alliances would be rolled over by the alliances of old, EoN, Cronos imo are the two strongest alliances to ever grace Dust, Mav/cubs/eugene/lordchaos/sha/traky78 all powerful leaders, people who wouldn't give up, didn't stop until they got what they wanted. Good times tbf
If you're going to put Cronos in there then you can't leave out NF

FA fought down till the last few districts.
Why did AE just bow to Kane and let him swoop them into DNS?
If I was AE I would have just knuckled under and pushed back.
Unfortunately for FA, this left us in the 2v1 situation which meant we were going to be done at a certain point of time.
Regardless of the history behind it all, the times playing PC against NF and AE were the most fun for me.
Other corps like Nyain, DDB, Pradox, KEQ, etc seemed like practice matches inbetween NF and AE matches at the time.
+å was once part of NF, so the leadership probably got along with Kain? But this was a long time ago, +å was just starting out... Good times

Yeah, AE was always 1337 But I've always truly wondered who would've prevailed in an AE vs. imps fight. They were both dominant during two different times along DUST's development. But if you've been around DUST long enough and remember each, experienced each, then who do you think would have won? You have to remember that a good amount o AE came from the Imp/IE group. But judging from what I perceived, I don't think the Imps had AE's teamwork. But again, it was early in pc where everyone was still learning what's best. Imps' roster was bested by noone in Dust ever. They could have filled 2 squads with 7 KDR players easy. If the Imps would have adapted and learned teamwork to go with their raw talent, Imps would have won that war. Remember Regnyum, protoman, Reflex, Zitros, Ludvig, Moejoe, G-slick, etc. I'm not even counting the endless players that were competent enough to compete with anyone plus others that I can't even remember their names. Imps teamwork was awful. So awful I don't think any other team knew how to handle us. If you check our old website with our PC recordings and score - we absolutely dominated and never, ever, used a link. Lol We held a point - would never die and slaughter all in sight. The teamwork was badly coordinated - but the squads themselves were put in such a way that any group could handle any situation. From reps to revives to support weapons and main slayer weapons. Imps used to get together to talk where they put there SP to better form squads. They lived and breathed being the best in Dust through absolute skill. I can imagine how awesome the Imps would be if they used current strategies. Haha the Zitros =ƒÿ¡ Miss them

Agree mostly Dubbs, but I have little doubt who would have been winner in that. We almost beat Imp's A squad with a thrown together team(STB&Friends vs Imps match 3 of the day). Granted, there were a lot of really solid players on that thrown together team, but you would expect a little more from guys of that caliber who had been playing together for a few months. Imps had incredible pure talent for sure, but post-1.4ish AE would have smacked them silly. AE would lose a lot of good players, doc,Titus, etc. Imps would still have Protoman, Reg, Reflex and many others, as someone who was in AE, not when they were the "top" corp Though, they were no where near the talent of Imps. All in all I would have liked AE more if it would have ended differently. They were a bunch of cool guys but I wouldn't put their talents on par with Imps.

I had the chance to play against them when they were trying to push STB out the first time. We beat a team they sent out in one of the matches. Lo' and behold, the bat signal got sent out and the next match was against their A team. If I was doing the roster for them, I might have replaced 1-2 guys (If the criteria was "Pure Talent"). 10-12 of them had TAC ARs... It was a sight to see. Came down to one tick of armor(It appeared to both sides that imps had no armor left, couldn't have been any closer). The biggest takeaway was that their most talented team almost lost to a ringer squad. Admittedly, it was a pretty talented ringer squad, but if I made the cut, then it was certainly no all-star team... Maybe half an all-star team. We were missing Kono(Who was a big part of our earlier win), but did have quite a few 'best in class' players.
Point being: most of the teams that still play now-a-day would probably wipe the floor with imps as they existed then. They were operationally exceptional and above average in small group tactics, but relied on those advantages too heavily and never developed much strategic depth.
I remember those matches, I was in both of those matches, I believe. But I remember it was early in the pc days and we were still learning and trying to find our way. I believe that the Imps would have adjusted enough to dominate. I believe this because I look at some of the Imps like Regnyum who dominate pcs in every change of playstyle. They were never really tested in pc, prior to those first STB battles. They crippled Orion alliance so they must have took it for granted. But I think if they were going hard and wanted to compete, I'm sure they would have made the proper adjustments. Because to be talented as an fps player requires some sort of intelligence. And to have that much talent in their ranks would require on par teamwork to beat most if not all teams on a consistent basis. They burnt out too fast, that killed them. I was away doing baseball so I missed pc, not saying I could've helped them idk but they were burnt out and gone when I got home. RND, TP,+å were all good

Alright some dudes came to me about OH and me joining and I said fk that but the Imps will have your back if you are attacked or anything, then you guys grew and grew. That's about all I remember from that time period. That's around when I left for baseball. QQ t._.t
