CriticalBastard (CB) was an FML Admin a while back and played a big role for the time he spent here. He has taken the long trek to create an incredible game from scratch. I figured I'd post it here for anyone who would like to support him on his new gaming venture (link to his kickstarter campaign below).
1) HTRT - Extremely versatile and flexible FFA player who thrived on aggression. As mentioned by many, his game made to be amongst the most fun to watch because he not only had great Macro, but it was combined with incredible micro and gamesense. His fighting ability was incredible and he always forced the action and put pressure on players, even if it didnt suit the overall end-game. Most likely the most fun player to watch during his time.
2) Under.sTa - #1 Ranked solo player on azeroth with an incredible win % turned FFA pro, mainly played elf with a pro demon hunter but could play almost any race. He had a very good understanding of macro and timing, but showed much of the same aggression as HTRT did but with more restraint and an emphasis on manip. He was the total package, and most games it was almost unfair due to his individual skill - he was always a target for getting teamed in the mid game.
3) Magadansky - Honestly the most consistent player of our generation. Multiple FML championships, even more finals appearances - stable figure in the scene and had a long-time love for the gametype that never seemed to waver. His solo influence shows in his advance micro, but what separated him was his game sense. The ability to mix manip and timing attacks to his advantage won him so many games, along with the fact that he didn't need an incredible amount of resources to win each game because he won almost every fight. The true total package.
4) Wrecktify - Probably the most skilled human I've ever seen and 2nd only to Maga in terms of all-around skill in terms of fighting, macro, manip, and game sense. Wrecktify solidified himself as one of the very few human FFA players to hold their own at every stage of the game from early to late, due to his individual skill.
5) King Orcs - Although not all exactly the same skill across the baord, its pretty damn close. I was lucky enough to be active during a time where the # of high skilled orcs was absolutely stunning (I remember 1 FML playoffs match having 3 highly skilled orcs in 1 match - nobody could pick a winner). Plush, Nline, Yz, Daseland, Darkness, Lel. All incredible in terms of fighting, macro, and game sense and if even 1 was in the game, you knew it would be a god watch.
6) Eshan - Had to put this guy in, how can you not love being a spectator to the king of manip?
Honorable mentions:
- Fury - If he played more he'd be in my top 5, but he got teamed too much and i dont blame him for stopping. King of dual race. - Blex - Unique style and powerful fighter, plus one hell of a dota player. - Rebbats - Q-Veta - Renaud - Lost - Bobas
All players who could have been or were amazing soloist (Lost did pretty well in solo Sc2 i believe) and have amazing micro/macro skills. It would be a game of the ages.
I started with NE bc my cousin was playing it and taught me how. After TFT i got introduced to Dark Ranger and started going DR archers rushing chims every game ftw. After awhile it got boring and I started playing other races and had a lot of fun, to a point where all I do is random now!
Thanks everyone its great to be back :) You'll start seeing me active next week since all my tests are this week :) I can't wait to reunite with old friends and meet some new ones, and I'll be sure to admin everything as fair as possible and help keep FML running forever!
