US Whos the best rogue...

Who do you think is the best rogue in the 29 bracket?


  • Total voters
    96
  • Poll closed .
my man original was added late but is surging to #1 already

While I do agree that, you must really play with a person in a "best of list" or have some sort of experience with them, there is a valid point to make.
Relevancy is an actual source of helping to determine a "best of".
If I have not heard of a certain player, or know much about him; There is a reason for that.
You have not made worthy adversary or partner, at least not enough to have a great impact on someone deciding whether you are good are enough to be a "best of".
As for bias, yes most people will vote for their friends, which also brings up another point.
Regardless if one is good, there are babies who will go against their adversary too.
Let's say your not friends with any of these guys. You are probably gonna vote for the guy that helped you win most BG's.
NOT the guy who beat you in most BG's and is very skilled opponent.

@Livingforce You should of allowed multiple votes, maybe 2 or 3, if i'm gonna be bias, I at least still want to recognize the real good players. (not to say i'm being biased at all, my vote went to who i truly saw progress to top)

My top 3 would have to be:
Original, the source of relevancy my actual witness of him progressing AND the echo's of success in the community/forums. I've been friends and enemy with him at points.
He has gotten many feats in endgame (glad and sht) and in twinks, and is just a really good player in general PvP. Not just rogue, but as his choice of "maining" a rogue in a lower bracket, he has definitely mastered his skill cap. He has also made a name for himself in the community. He even got into 19 twinking and joined up with Skill Ratio. It just goes to show how good a rogue he is in lower level brackets.

Visual, the source of relevancy is also my actual witness. He is the only rogue that comes to mind that still puts up a good challenge in pug's. I've seen him carry a whole game with very poorly skilled players. He does rely a lot on consumables but I don't think they are enough to mask that he has actual skill. He has been a long term player of this bracket to get respect out of that.
He has been my adversary 90% of the time, so there is no bias going on here; I will say when someone is worthy regardless of friend or enemy (not just speaking in the gulch, but socially, i am not friends with him)

Tapout / Hamgod, the source of relevancy for this one is mainly evidence of success rather than actual witness, which to say is actually a pretty powerful thing, to show you are a good player without speaking or ever meeting them. There is much to say of the evidence, but i'd have to say the main things are him winning tournaments. I don't know the guy very much, I've only HEARD of what a great player he is, and I have SEEN him winning at most most if not all his challenges. Again, that's is a powerful thing, to not know a player that well but to already have the sense that he is a great one.

but again i can only vote for one
Well articulated thought out explaination for the players your mentioned, this is what I want to see more of.
 
Damn, I made the list! I appreciate that. This is an awesome thread.
However, I am not the best rogue here so I(nor anyone else) did not vote for Tideylol.
Paigexd vs. Visual is a tough one, can't wait to see what happens.
I've played many a bg and many an arena against both. it's safe to say they are pretty damn equal.
 
Visual v Paige? Of course Visual will win that, why? Cuz her racial it's more OP than humans racial and more when is rogue v rogue.
That's from my point of view but yes it will be interesting to see.
