digitalhughes: @s9 you stinkn' weasel!
Don't know which mech to pilot? Check out my guide to the mechs!
Want to hang out with some awesome people, including ReEvolve, Ashfire908, Rei, ThirdEyE, and even the world-famous Loc_Tr? Come to the #hawkenscrim IRC!

I'd actually be far more interested in knowing who the best pilot is for each mech
I say this because there is a very great chance that a bunch of mechs will not even be used in competitive play

Furthermore K/D/A is a flawed way of calculating player skill.
Look up steel killers, daD and dirtnap gaming.
those are the top 3 competitive clans or so i hear.
some of the best players I've played with and against are clanless. Clans dont mean your good. just means you work well with others.
EDIT due to reread: isn't referencing your own clan kinda tacky?

Personally, I believe one already posted in the thread.
I've not seen many more that really impress me.

I'm not going to go against someone who is yonger than me, has better reflexes than me, has a better rig than me, has a faster connection than me and more importantly who has much more spare time than me, who will destroy me in 100% of cases.

- Obligatory PC spec boasting, 'cause I'm rich.
- Shameless self-promotion links.
- Sneak a peak into every second stream voiceover ever.

I think you're missing the point of this thread...

I love your signature. Describes everything i feel about you. <3
I'd like a list of names, But unlike you, i want to fight them so i get better. Sure you get stomped, but if your observant, you can either copy them, or figure out how to break what their doing.

Don't want to burst your bubble, but after you turn twenty, maybe twenty five if you are lucky, your reflexes will progressively, albeit slowly diminish. In other words you will be physically incapable of "becoming better" and "keeping up with". This is why you don't see any cyberspotsmen in their 30s, they all bail out before getting stomped by newcomers.
And that's even before the hardware is taken into account.

I agree that competing against someone that is better than you will help you get better also...or just stay out of their cross hairs

That is one of the biggest reasons I can never accurately judge the people who I've played against unless I either have talked to them a number of times, or faced them in numerous situations.
Also speaking of hardware (and a shoutout), NotKjell does amazingly despite regularly getting 15 FPS. If he had 60 FPS, I'd be even more afraid of him than I am now. So in the end, while it does greatly effect performance, the best players can still overcome many barriers set by hardware. Also, isn't it slightly ignorant to call all people who are the best douchebags? You've never talked to them, so how would you know?

Some of the "Veteran Players" might have to differ on that opinion. I'm 42.

I've played online long enough to know my limitations and I simply won't go against anyone considered to be "top player". No point in that since the result is known beforehand.

but no, until they have more competitive events or an ELO system, we won't really know.
