You're welcome. As an EU player I can also confirm that blindguy is horrible in melee, and used to kite with his superawesome cool meleearcher hybrid.
Don't be rude, Guy has just this very special way of talking that may discourage other people from talking to him if they don't know him. I remember that in the beginning, when I hop on Templar TS (ex. when Nordmen were inactive or just in the middle of the night), I met Guy for the first time and we had some sort of argument and stuff. I didn't really like him but as we played a little longer I slightly got to know him better. His way of typing on the forum is a bit too offensive and he tends to insert stereotypes in his jokes etc. and that may be why he said the 'bad NA players' thingy. I do not say it's ok what he does but I just thought that it may be helpful, if I explain it here, so you all have easier time understanding each other and don't treat it so seriously. He also likes to exaggerate so Tydeus shouldn't take Guy's complaining any harder than typical player's whining.

I know I quoted u twice in this post but yolo...Guy is a good player. He may not be the best of thy best but the last thing you should say about him is that 'he's horrible@melee'. With his crappy PC and half-working keyboard he's doing fine. Also he used to be one of the very few archers that were carrying 0 slot weapon that you couldn't block with - a normal dagger. Everyone else was using either hammer or pickaxe, but dagger was more stylish and it required some skill to chamber with it in dangerous situations. As far as I know, he stopped using his short sword because it felt too easy to deliver really nice damage with the new 1h stab.
The funny thing is that no matter how much you whine at 2h or 1h, those are polearmers (+cav) (at least EU side) that are the most efficient battle units. Chase, Teeth, Dieler, Knitler, Tor, Gurnisson, Polepoop, Blueberry_Muffin (when polearmer) +some others always get the greatest results on EU1. I know those are all great players. I don't want to derail this thread but can anyone EU-side remind me of any other player playing 1h or 2h that is as battle-efficient as those guys that I have mentioned? Maybe Saxon or Jackie?
In my humble opinion, those are polearmers that do best among all melee classes in a battle.
