As said before: that list above means nothing.
hehe. Well, it means something, its just not the end all be all greatest list of all time, dominating with its absolute accuracy. Its subjective. Try not to take much offense if you aren't on the list. Could be that you are a great player, but I simply haven't had the opportunity to play much with you. Glad we were able to get at least 1 in today, though. And thanks for the replay - I'll check it out.
These are the players who I've had extensive experience playing with and believe should be bumped to Tier 1.
* ErksaConti (sedna) - inactive since Dec 1st - I personally found his greatest strength being with his premade teammate, sakke. Without his teammate, I found him to be much less effective. With his teammate, easily tier 1 with Sakke, but this list isn't supposed to be about teams imo.
* Hemp_Boy/rnz0 - He was quite solid when paired with thatguyyoulove against me and trouser. If I remember right, I've played a bit with him in the past as well. I'm trying to think of why I have reservations about popping him up to tier 1. But nothings coming to mind. hmmm... he easily fits on tier 2 atm, anyway. Hope to play with or against him some more.
* IamKira - I know enough to realize he's a decent player, but haven't played with in a LONG time. replay?
* Janook (I am shameless) - you are shameless

We should play some either together or against. I know you are quite talented at the game and easily fit in tier 2. any other replays?
* magnus333 - I've seen mag's play quite well with 2 dgs at this point (reg + occ). I'd welcome him as a teammate, but I haven't seen enough that I'd call him tier 1. Easily a good player, imo.
* morpheas768 (erebus) - I haven't played enough with morph to say tier 1. I've played some with and against. Solid player.
* NinkiCZ (rook + everybody) - i think there was a replay here
* Obscenitor/horsestrangler (rook + beast) - i actually had him up in my tier 1 list for a little while today - but then I got to thinking about. Its not that he's a bad player in any way, shape or form. He's a reasonable candidate for tier 1 imo, but he does or has consistently in the past dropped from games just before the citadel dropped, which puts him in the category of a stats exploiter. As a result, no tier 1. Could be he doesn't do this anymore though.
* pacov (beast + reg) - I appreciate the nomination. I'll be staying off tier 1 for now anyway.
* Sakke - see erksa comments
Haven't decided on Maccillia or GL_Mithrandir. There are also other players I know are good but haven't seen in a while.
Mac is tier 2 imo, but getting better and better all the time. I haven't played enough with Mith to say that much at this point.
I´m ashamed by the "good" players of this community and will see that a new game will be found with a kinder community. Sorry, but all are just watching stats. It´s frustrating!
Not everyone really cares about stats. A big reason for this thread is that stats aren't all that telling regarding a person's skill. But if it does come down to a pug game, if someone doesn't know you to be good or bad, stats are a good place to look.
Btw, Trouserssnake's rook wasnt that good, but then again maybe it's not his fault, Levi is not a rook friendly map.
Trouser's actually generally very solid with rook. But as he was laning with Katana's oak and from a previous game I gathered he wouldn't have shield at an early level, I pressured trouser over and over with reckless abandon which scored me more kills than deaths.
