The only thing I can think of in response to this is to tell you to go **** yourself. How the hell do you have the audacity to call arrogant the newer players who put in the time to develop the skill needed to excel at this game all while saying that they didn't earn those titles and that they were inherited?

The new top players did not inherit their reputation; they earned that reputation by outperforming others.

don't know why you mentioned extacy & kalante they both still play pretty much everyday lol. oh and they're both still some of the best players in this game. :P aside from people like them I swear the community keeps getting worse the longer dust goes on... it's the strangest thing.

Many of the best players I have ever played with or against where in this Corp. Battle.

Legends come and go. I've never been one to enjoy a spotlight.
Its complicated thing to sit and look at players today & compare them to players in the game a year ago.
The status quo of the game is very much different on every level.

Personally, I've been tanking in Dust for a long time. I've been through & continue to slither in a sea of nerfs.
I've seen & faced the best competition. I've felt the thrill of victory - overcoming impossible odds.
I miss all of the tankers I used to roll with. Who had my six, Tankers that I could count on. Almost all of them are gone and it ain't fun to think about.

I would hope there are some who remember my acolades. Other players are what makes a legend possible.
Never will I gloat or perceive myself as the better tanker. If others make me a legend, So be it. If not, So be it.
I'm sure all of the other dinosaur tankers feel the same as me.

Everyone plays to the best of their ability and honestly there are a lot of missing names in your OP. But remember, Things change with time Burns. The new legends made today are the same as before. It just all depends on what legends you know - There are many unspoken for.

Most legends end when people no longer make an establishment to maintain them.

Most real legends would stay legends despite the nerfs and changes to the game. Take every single one of them on as a challenge.

Wait... IWS snitched on Cubs burns

I know man I was there. But do you actually know the person who reported/ accused Cubs of RMT

It sounds to me like you are doing the same thing people do in sports, and try to compare players of different generations to one another.

It is impossible to say how these newer players would fair against some of the older ones. I am sure some would flounder, but I am also sure some would surprise you and hold their own.

While I understand have some respect and deference for some of the original players, I think it is quite uncalled for to do so at the expense of some of the newer players that show some skill. I think it a bit egotistical.

If you are using myself as a measuring stick, I am afraid you are using the wrong device.

I can die to Cubs just as easily as I die to Militia Assaults and Heavies.

Its not hard to kill a 200 HP scout that can't defend himself once spotted, especially when he mostly carries NKs, Flaylocks, and PLCs.

That Heim guy is a beast and is gorgeous
He's been around since the beginning and has a chode

I killed 2 homos and dropped, got killed and **** my pants.. I thought I was safe playing with myself
