best warcraft 2 player of all time

[Jorgenson]

But I also know that we had 3 10's on our team plus 5 so team total of 25

😂

[woot.]

There's days when we are unstoppable, I wonder what I ate those days going to keep track from now on.

As of 2004 or so, the top players were almost certainly:

KHB
Ash
Valkrie, even without hacking
yah'mon although he may have hacked
Nerzyman

There were great players before that, like DethWlkr and Azteca. And those two were likely better than some of the above when all played regularly. But they stopped and the others got better.

And I wonder if there have been any major updates in how the game is played in the last 17 years. Maybe faster mouse clicking and all. But what do people do differently now?

The King of the Hillbilly series is probably the best way to analyze this.

Only one here I haven’t played with much is Nerzyman. The rest are no where near the top in 2021.

Biggest things I think are customizable hotkeys and replays. In 2004 it wasn’t as easy to rewatch games of top players.

uh, why the fuck isn't Dugs[anz] in that list? i scanned it like 3 times good and proper, but couldn't see him. he's clearly the best of all times, wtf

[woofy]

just scanned it again, definitely not there

The best players of all time are long gone. They got good, dominated, got bored, and quit.

Jayhawks always tells me this.

The game has changed a bit, it's widely accepted for people to edit hotkeys and utilize macro's these days. Apparently cheating has become acceptable, which is why most people who have posted in this threads opinions are worthless.

Pretty funny since you almost only play with the biggest hacker of all of them, u8!

Best War2 player of all time is a loaded question since theres been different "best" players during each era, and what makes a player greatest is a subjective question..

When I first came to Kali95 in 1996-97 the "best" teams I played against were Azteca/Metal, DethWlkr/Stalker/DethWish, but you had many other REALLY well coordinated teams potentially with less skilled players like Pimster/Guan-Yu/Watje (the hehehe clan), IN clan (Incinerate, who I met at Foxwoods Casino ironically, Tillerman, etc), the FearDaUPS~ guys were really well coordinated, a lot of this game was teamwork skills not just individual skills.

Later on when in Kali and when BNet edition came out the Divine Intervention guys were the best, King Hillbilly/Punkash were the most dominant team the game has ever seen, but there were SO many good players anyone could be beaten at any time, even my lackluster skills could win a game here and there against those guys.

The difference I see in the greatest players of all time was their ability to play with lesser skilled players and still win.  On that front, Punkash was the clear best player to ever play the game with Nerzyman very close behind, I played 100s, maybe 1000s of games with those guys and they knew how to carry, instruct, and literally tell you almost unit by unit how to help them win.  They made the guys they played with better, which IMO is what makes a great player.  As good as guys like KHB, Azteca, and many others were, they pretty much cherry picked their allies, only played with the best of the best, and of course won a ton, but they werent passing along their knowledge and helping others be better.... maybe that was the strategy, keep everyone else a step behind.  No doubting how good they were of course, but the egos and trash talking of lesser players was a bit nauseating.

This is an old thread.

General consensus is that tk is #1
