too low rate, sry.
condom only spends his time on 2690+
Okay 11. This is blatant pting as well. Chris recs should be banned from aoczone, this guy is worse than ertug.
Ban condom from Aoc zone..he is nerd..
The skill level between a 2000 and a 1600 is way bigger than a 2200 and a 2600, so I'd say that's a very bad example.
But yes, everyone that have achieved 2500+ is overrated compared to the level of those at 2200. If everyone would use their highest nicks at any time, the top tier would fall to 2400 in time, whilst the 2nd tier would end up at 2200-2300 and 8th_wonder to 1600. Then the rating would be much more realistic as a 2400 should win at least 3 of 5 aginst a 2300 and the ratings would remain quite the same and stay balanced. People adapt their nicks to the point loss.
Yes, the fact that people can have more nicks makes it a possibility to sit on your higher nicks once you gain too few points from winning games. If you watch the teamgames of TyRanT lately, we're winning 0 pts 9 of 10 games, what's the point of playing rated games in that case? It's basically lose, lose situation, but we've been doing it so people get records to watch, and some opponents doesn't want to play without rated.
Yes, I can lose to Wrath, 5 games in a row even, so can Chris, Daut, Jordan and the rest. This makes having a coop or using a lower nick a more 'comfortable' journey. That's how it has become, and that's not gonna change untill something is forced upon the highest rated players in form of a rating system fix or everyone agrees to use their highest nicks constantly.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I have used coops or lower nicks many times to not lose too many points. But I will also claim that I've been fair in my use of the highest nick or my lower nicks vs other opponents at any time. And that's how it is for Chris, Daut, Jordan and so on(except Tim). Everyone will use their highest nick whenever it's appropriate rating wise with the way the system is now(except Tim). So all in all, I think noone should get bs for having a coop or using a lower nick vs a lower rated opponent(except Tim who uses 0 games 1600 nick coop in a pure PT way)(grass).
It's no secret that the rating system is broken, and I honestly don't think people should care too much about the ratings unless something changes.
What?
I'd challenge you to a 1v1 as well but I'm pretty sure you'd back down.
