Crystal HedgeWolf used to smack me about a bit, but those were the days when I had like 15 mil SP, so he had a bit of an advantage.

inb4 you throw the names of vets at me. I can only compare myself to those I've actually played against.

Imma let you finish but Re-flex was the greatest scout of all time. 40 kills every game when scouts were UP with no cloak. The markof22 was the best RE user in the game. Exmaple was the best heavy. Crimson Moon V was the best cqc player in the game. Usuckatdust was the best long range player in the game. Cubs was the best FC. Sleepy zan was the best sniper to ever play dust. Protoman and james tie for G.O.A.T in general. slap was the best rail tanker. Mr zitro was the best blaster tank. mr snugglez was the best dropship pilot.

/thread

I'd go one of the OH scouts for fighting in an even less favorable game environment, someone in FA for REs( you know who you are), spoungly for heavy, Crimson was good, but I'd give cqc to Ariana or the twins, I'll agree with uSuck Veg because the other people that I have in mind played in a much more favorable climate(laser rifle/TAC). Cubs/high times were the most competent game leadership that I have encountered. I would put Reg as GOAT. Wasn't always the mvp, but was consistently excellent for vastly differing groups. He made everyone around him better. Not ignoring the skill of protoman or James, but there just isn't the body of work in 16v16 matches for the two. It would be like putting Barry Sanders as GOAT... He probably was, but we will never know for sure. Reg was Jerry Rice. Legend deserves some mention for tanking, he carried a team to the finals when people still tried... Snuggles or foxhound, but probably snuggles. Foxhound was more useful to teams because he relayed information too and participated more. Snuggles popularized the viability of ADS and was supreme at it.

Snuggles popularized the viability of ADS and was supreme at it. There are certain roles that are not debatable. Blaster tanking goes to The Legend...hands down. I would place my boy demzor up there (cause i've seen him wreck everyone) but i dont like to mention my RND brethren cause it'll look biased. But back on track, twins were the best scouts..hands down. Assault could be anyone....you can make an argument for everyone from OSGR to sgtnoneck, akrem, extacy, frost kitty, etc. People usually give best rail to slap but didnt Takashiro (englishsname) **** him in that RS vs Imp match? I mean, i dont know specifics but i do know slap went 0-5 and the killfeed read Taka taking him out. Not to mention that i've never seen Sgt Nova take an L as a rail tanker. There were many great heavies too...cant say one stood above all else. Same thing with ads pilots...however i do believe fiddle when he said snugglez brought it mainstream. Check RND out here

Did I not slay you kids hard enough? I see Regnyum, Valdez, Espeon, etc. mentioned multiple times, but are you forgetting who else they ran with in ERA? The god-squad that held down compounds with 5 people when we had 12 people pushing in? It was me, you little ***. I doubt I'll ever get this game on PC since it's likely going to be trash since CCP can't develop for ** and has no idea how to properly balance an FPS, but let it be known, I was a top 5 player. Came in here to drop your name. That YouTube video of you totally dominating the covered objective in the Ring map compound seals your name as a top 5 slayer. Superb gun game and situational awareness. Noone wants to mention Kobrah because he used to trash talk a lot.......but Kobrah is easily in that top slayer category. I really don't like to mention assaults because there, truly, is way too many on the same level too count. Check RND out here

I really don't like to mention assaults because there, truly, is way too many on the same level too count. The way i categorize assaults are based off of my 1v1s. You have below avg assaults, avg skill assaults (who barely shoot me), above avg assaults (who barely get past my shields) where alot of ppl on this are. Then there are only a few assaults who are the best assaults (50/50) on our 1v1s like Heim, Eldest Dragon, Kalante, Djinn Soul the crazy thing was Soul was still really good while FCing i do terrible when i FC(i always freaked out facing Soul because i really wanted to kill him), Regnyum, Tibs, Cavanni, Noneck towards the end of his Dust career he went from above avg to one of the top assaults, and xCerebratex, i think i would be up there untill they nerfed strafe speed after that i had to shotgun. I sort of do the same thing. I categorize assaults based on how much trouble I have during real 1v1s. But I label my 1v1s based on that we both see each other on the same grounds. Meaning we both have full health, there is no outside interference, and both are either behind cover or both are equally vulnerable with no cover. If someone launches a grenade that depletes 60% of your health or uses some sort of explosive weapon like an MD or flaylock to get your health down, I don't consider those confrontations either. I used to try to recruit to RND based on 1v1s that I've seen in pubs. I remember facing a guy named Doug Ugly in a pub back in late Chromosome. He was in a no-name corp and I could tell that he just joined Dust but he knew how to dance. I saw potential in him so I tried to recruit him and according to his response, he went with my pitch. But I didn't follow up as aggressively as I should. Cause when they reset everything, he was the 1st on the leaderboards in scoring and the Imps picked him up. Now, assaults that I used to have the most trouble with in a "real" 1v1 in my prime, were Kreayshawn Corusanti (in closed beta, I was no joke but this dude was no joke +1) Regnyum (one match he got me 3x in true 1v1 situations, so I had to give it up to him) Noneck (although only faced him a few times in my later days..but he's a guy that would go into the objective and not camp outside or at range like a lot of so-called beasts), arirana (post AE), Akrem Troakat ( he was just ******) A guy named Colombia Boss (one of the best assaults this game has seen, imo) Solar Qoio (had good 1v1 game) There are a lot of assaults that were great but some of them I never really ran into more than once or twice because I played skirmish exclusively. Or, some guys would always happen to shoot me in the back, or catch me after I just had a gunfight, or only come out when I was outnumbered, etc.....just not true 1v1s in my book. I have no doubt that Kalante is one of the best assaults in the game but for some reason I never really ran into him much when RND faced AE. If I did run into him he was standing in one or two triage hives. But I wouldn't take anything away from him cause there was a pub where he must have had like 50 and our team ended up getting cloned. Teammates kept running to him and we had the game locked. If there's anymore that comes to mind I'll list them but for now, those are the guys' 1v1 games I respect the most. **, I'm rambling Check RND out here

Edit2: Man some of these names give me a hardcore nostalgia boner Forgot about you......you are one of those guys who's 1v1 games I respect. I have a video of you putting in work somewhere. Also, although they were shotgunners (so I wouldn't put them in my 1v1 category), those are the only two guys in Dust that I've ever been nervous about when they were on the field. Check RND out here
