Why does it make you feel good if you cheat to stay on the top of the list?

Because being on the top of the list makes some people think he's good and insecure people generally desperately seek approval?
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.

I derived no small amount of humor from this thread. Plumbo, do you unironically believe that people will view you as a "good" player if you have a high duel rating?

For anyone who doesn't know, Plumbo has something like 36 strength and duels in full plate with a heavy bastard sword. His typical tactic is to block as little as possible and just swing wildly, because he knows that he can usually make 6-10+ mistakes against a normal opponent while killing said opponent in 2-3 hits.

While this naturally kills people who still miss their blocks, it never gets anyone who is actually skilled at the game/owns a morningstar. As far as real ability goes, Plumbo doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as any of the top NA duelists; in fact, even by the standards of other very high strength NA duelists like Tretter or Sosarian Knight, he compares very poorly.

For him to be complaining that duels are "broken" is the definition of hilarious.

Even with cheating, you're worse in duels than 96.2% of the community, including myself.

If you state a random number and a biased opinion it's a fact, if someone else does so it's an opinion.
