I'm actually Rhaelys_RS and I use a normal poleaxe. ^_^
I can't see the picture, but I'm guessing it's Balton.
I don't think you want to be on any new NA watchlist, probably will trigger you as a potential target for the new autoblock conspiracy witchhunt, because "you can't just be that good", lol, you just spent hours and hours on the duel server for no reason.
On an unrelated point, has anyone even seen Carebear_Harmless Peasant playing lately?
ManofWar
- whines about every. little. thing.
- will also kill you
This is a thread about the people to watch out for on NA servers since, more often than not, they'll kill you. For most of these players the best way to beat them is to fight them with a group or distract them while somebody kills them nefariously. I'll begin:
Goretooth_ATS - Should be by himself
- Bec de Corbin
HarmlessPeasant - Haven't seen around in awhile
- Anything. Just run the other way when you see this player.
Silveredge_ATS - Who?
- Short 1h + Shield
TS_[some tag]_Zanthos - belongs here I reckon
- heavy cavalry, or on foot with a morningstar/2h
Rhaelys_RS - ok
- poleaxe and heavy armour
- also nice to talk to, if you get the chance
Leman_Russ_Chaos - Yes, watch out
- different each generation, kind of smelly
TS_Boyar_Robin_Longstrdie Overall yes, toughest archer for me to duel
- normally a bow but, up close, he's still going to kill you and your entire family
Socrates of Chaos Not a standout, maybe haven't watched much
- 1h with deceptive speed, damage, and other "oh shi-" qualities
ManofWar - Will kill you for certain
- whines about every. little. thing.
- will also kill you

Socrates we need to duel pronto!
Also, thanks for adding me to the list Diomedes(click to show/hide)
Wow, was I just snubbed in the opening post? :shock:
I meant this again as in a prediction on the rampant trolling and flaming sure to come as people clamore to get on the list, or dispute who is already on it. Hence the gif picture of a nice fellow eating popcorn and enjoying the show.
And let us be real here, TS has never talked to me in my life besides Kolee so I very much doubt that anyone ever intended to invite me into teamspeak in the first place. :lol:
Good to see your stance on me sir! Best of wishes, and my apologies for any slight that I may have given you.
Good hunting, and clear fields.
To bad my ping isnt that good anymore on the NA servers. Some names I actually remember.If it were only 100ms I might actually still play on the EU servers. Sadly though, I get a minimum of 220 ping on EU servers compared to my normal 50 in the US. =(
Well I can say I was feared at least on one EU server for like 30 minutes! Im notorious too! :P
Why does something like ping even exists, sucks that this community is like split up by 100 milliseconds right?

Rhaelys is actually not a nice person, he made fun of my family then called me a butthole and killed me. :(

Well that is pleasant, and screw Rhaelys, always trying to back stab me!

Maybe instead of opinionated guesses there should just be a way to access the Top 25 rankings? Rank is kept track of now.
Rank is based on XP.
I think the list is a bit too inclusive to be honest. All the players mentioned are excellent to be sure, but I would only leave a handful (and add a few) that I would consider top of the line
Goretooth, ManofWar, HarmlessPeasant, Rhade, Tyrian are probably the 5 that need to be swarmed or ranged down if you have any chance of winning the round.
Cyranule, Lemen Russ, Tydeus, ROHYPNOL & RUFFIES (as cav), Rhaelys, (and a lot more that aren't included here): are all top notch players that can single-handedly decide rounds, but while I'd lose to them 19 of every 20 times there isn't the same sense of dread as running into the aforementioned 5.
Whatever happened to Balboroth?He still plays, I've seen him on the most recently in BRD's server, TunaTown.
He was the most epic spamitar/shield user of all time.

I feel the most dread against Cyranule actually, just saw him go 63-3 on a battle server yesterday with a longsword (normally hes 1hander), haven't seen any of these other guys do that on a battle server lately even with danish greatswords and becs.
Ranged was on that day. Why did no one shoot him down?! D:
so why isnt there any mention of the LLJK?
Idk bout you but us LLJK are pretty famous for being just SUPER GOOD. /sarcasm
LLJK will never be mentioned in these threads. It is part of being LLJK. No matter how many times you top the kill charts you will always be bad because of the LLJK. Sorry charlie.
I think the people on this list are mentioned because they do it consistently and have a high chance of pulling out a clutch finish even if outnumbered 3+ to 1.
I've seen plenty of LLJK and Dracul do great things, but the people on these lists do it day in and day out. Not everyone on this list wears heavy armor either...
I think the people who make these lists follow old guidelines from the list before, causing a never ending chain of "Goretooth is the best player!" when he really isn't. I'm not going to lie, he's a good player but I don't think he does amazing things daily.
We here at Dracul know what it's like, we're on the top of the scoreboards quite a bit and we never get mention. I've seen the same with SoA too. I've seen Allers destroy enemy teams by himself, he was in a tunnel with 6 - 7 guys behind him, and all he had was a one handed un-heirloomed sword. He turned around and obliterated every single one of them. He ran out of the tunnel to kill the rest of the enemy team.
So what does it take to get on this list? Heirloom heavy plate armor to masterwork, grab a long weapon, heirloom to masterwork. Join a server with plenty of people and spam around? These "watch list" are always like this, they include the people who are in the biggest greatest clan or have the best weapon and armor. Shouldn't this be based on skill?
hes a good player, but in native, he would get his ass handed to him i believe
did he ever complete the challenge? Last I heard he bitched out and never showed up on the native server
Thats what rhade said, I do not believe he would lieI was there for the thing. Allers had to go watch American Idol so he couldn't go to Native to finish the 2nd half of the match.

I'm not going to deny some of your clan mate's skills because from what I've seen most of them clearly know what they're doing. But here's the catch: if they're playing seriously. I don't think people take Dracul seriously because half the time you guys are in peasant gear chopping at trees or running around with practice weapons. In my mind it mirrors how people see LLJK - CaptainMorgan for example I think is a pretty good player but because of his association I don't think people will ever consider him in any of these lists.
This list is not about who is the most skilled, or best duelist, or best spitwad maker... This list is about the players that are consistently lethal.
Allers is a lethal player but he mostly goofs off so that is likely why he did not make the list.
You can argue all you want about goretooth for example, but at the end of the day he nets kills. Sure he is gaining a lot of Grace from his armour (even though when he is wearing his green pezzy outfit instead of his black armour he still is on the top five) sure he is using a build more suited for battle then for duels, but at the end of the day this list is about a watchlist not some arbitrary better-duelist-then-you.
Rhade for example was pure murder in a duel and is honestly one of the best duelists I have ever seen, but he was taken down faster then usual in battle due to his hyperspecialisation on dueling and his past dueling experience, and thus would have a problem of battlefield awareness and often get killed due to it.
So again, this is not a list for most skilled with X, this is a list for battle players that will kill you more often then not, or take down a huge swath of players before going down. Too many duelists have tunnel vision in battle or don't use proper tactics and terrain advantage, and the best skills of blocking won't save you there.
