    i know one female leader who didn't deserve the spot in the first place, and did a great job of running a very good sg into the ground

    lol soe and nurse phantasm was the #1 ranked team ladder people but they started refusing to play against me and nihilaa, that's the only reason why we weren't top ranked. we went 10-0 then people just wouldn't do rateds vs us anymore. we even went easy on some teams and still won by over 50 kills

    the freaks roster at its prime was decked with badass players, what are you talking about?

    there was a time when great pvpers like ajax, frozen, and max even spent time on the bench. freaks had a loaded roster.

    before the mez resist nerf it'd take 6 stacked holds to break through obsidian shield+acrobatics. plus acro decreases the hold duration, i'd only bring like 8 bf's against a troller and I'd be covered for the entire match

    he did beat my spine/regen once (went 1-1 vs him with that build), the dm scrap with acro fared much better vs controllers than regen did. Blasters on the other hand would give me trouble sometimes while they were cake with teh regin

    i think ob shield also used to have a higher hold resist than integration did, not entirely sure on that though, i was never a numbers guy.

    It featured the first time a rad/psi defender was used in an official match (Chris Havok on Rad Hawk), and the last time a spines/regen scrapper was used in an official match (Rystorm).

    actually my spines/regen was used quite a bit on the freaks team, and used in freaks vs hvnd with my triple taunt build Somewhere along the line I got changed to a rad/psi spot because taunters were getting phased out in favor of bubblers or sonics

    tribute went out undefeated,

    I recall Tribute getting beat by a Hell Raiser team, but the HR team had a couple of fillers (which wouldn't fly in today's nazi-ladder system). By today's standards, it would have probably been a (serious) "practice" match.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hell raisers have never beaten us, we beat them 3 matches to 0 (although they were good matches). Only time I remember dropping matches to them was actually when they had a team of 4 set people against PUGs against a random team (me and aeolus and a couple others), we won the first match and then they were like 'heh, switching AT', and they brought an emp and 2 ice/nrg blasters running near-perma FoN. yeah they won that next match pretty heavily against not nearly the same kind of setup

    Granted HR was badass back in the day. During Tribute's run that was the only team we faced that we didn't totally oblilerate and they were actually low scoring matches. It's too bad they weren't more active since I'm sure they would have been a huge force for quite some time, they just didnt have enough people. In our 'official' against them, it was supposed to be 8v8, but i think we had to cut it to 7v7 because of lack of players on their side. One thing tribute had going for it was we had a deep roster of about 20 people, which was actually big at the time for a pvp group. Though in i4 HR was the only SG I saw as a 'threat' until HVND started becoming prominent. Good times though, both matchups against HR and HVND were epic

  19. trash talking will always be present in any form of competition.

    i don't buy that whole 'im not pvping because some guy trash talked me'. the real story is the guy got owned and he can't stand the fact he has to re-learn the game for pvp, and that his uber pve toon sucks at pvp and will likely have to respec/reroll AND improve skill wise to be anything special. But hey, it's always easy to put the blame on other people for your own shortcomings, so that's what most do.

    I've been trash talked a bunch to, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. If anything, it just motivates me to melt more faces
  20. well i gotta say you're a freakin warrior. 16 hours in 1 day, i'd fall dead doing half of that
