Well... I made a Stimpy clone named Kofilin, only using the awlpike 2 handed and spin thrusting like crazy.

Prepatch I used to do 4:1 in duels and battle only using my looney tunes axe  :mrgreen:

That one had a serious balance problem.

Make a mauler only character and if you must use a spear against cav but no other weapon you must fight in melee with a maul against all occasions and by maul I MEAN a maul not iron mace or bar mace.

Try it it's fun but hard (Weapon speed affects block animation speed).

There was this guy running around in plain cloths and a dagger which was amazingly effective. Must be an agi build because he was fast enough to step in range between swings. Also very good in chamber blocking with the dagger.

I love using my Langes Messer in 2H mode. Sort of a western katana equivallent. Fighting the 120 reach two-handers with a 90 reach blade is not so easy in particular since I am not an agi build, but damn it is fun. The thrust is polearm animation which means no lolstab and very short range, but it tends to confuse the opponents. I am still much more effective (which is still not much) with my vanilla Goedentag though.

Nemeth has an alt char, that has 9/30 str/agi build, 3ps, 10wm, 10 athletics and uses long dagger.

He says that he can even manage to get some kills with blocking only by chamber and running around opponent.

Because he is FAST. Not fast in the way you know someone can be fast, like running fast for few sec or so. He is fast.

I saw it. He runs around battlefield, choses opponent, comes, try to get a hit, if he FAILS to get a hit, he run out of enemy's range BEFORE enemy strike back. Awesome to see.

Yeah, he killed me twice (shame on me). First time I did not understand what the guy was doing, I did not even notice the dagger. I was wearing this sheppard cloth and he killed me in two stabs. I found it fun. Second time, I was wearing an armor but was close to death from previous fights. His mosquito stitches killed me eventually. Indeed he can step out of range of slash animations, really disturbing. He is also good at chamber blocking. Congratulations to him.

I tried chamberblocking with a dagger and it's a bit easier to do compared to other weapons (still very hard for me).

High agility+REALLY fast weapon gives you just a tiny bit more time to react to your opponents swing. It's just really hard to chamber feints or held attacks.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

The most unusual fighting style I've encountered was back when I met KruntFu(KuntFu?), he used ladders to fight. Ladder fu. =D
This was when there were shield walls, organized cavalry charges, etc. in c-RPG, He would run up to a enemy shield wall, protected by allies, making a square shield wall around him, which would open in a section while He ladderpulted the enemies away... Good 'ol pulting fun. =)

That was when there were no NA servers, so, I don't even know if He still plays or not. Oh, also, I don't think ladderpulting was forbidden at that time. XD

Its not really a "style" more than a super sweet move I do.  I bet some people pull it off, and many more try to pull it off and fail.

If I am on a roof or castle and someone is climbing a ladder to get up to me, I jump over the enemy, spin 180 and stab them.   Usually kills in one hit, leaving the dead person extremely confused as to what happened.

I pulled this off the other day, probably the funnest move to pull off in this game ^^.

I also just like to rush towards someone and do a 360 and slash them, it's not that effective but sometimes it will throw them off and I can get behind a shielder and kill them.
