Regardless...

Getting into top 50 is simple, if a team wants to be lame. You know it, I know it. No different than players that are r9 earned via IWAY - you telling me they are a top player? Give me a friggin break. Rank is just as meaningless as ladder position, if you want to exploit portions of the game. If you don't know that, then you're either ignorant or delusional.

If you're thinking that somehow I'm supposed to bow down to you simply because you belong to a certain guild - you're looking at the wrong person to do so. I'm not some 13 year old fanboi. Your opinion carries no more weight than mine. And you're even more delusional if you think that the guild you're in suddenly qualifies you as somehow a better player with a better opinion than everyone else.

Puh-lease.
Edit: Waste of typing.
I disagree with your points and have yet to see any example besides 1 guild that has not maintained a steady place in the top 20.

PS - I promote my e-friends!

As far as I am concerned there is no BEST player. For every situation there is ALWAYS someone better. Besides there are a ton of players who don't play PvP that often and then there are others who don't get noticed because they are in lower ranked guilds. The variables are endless. If these so-called BEST players are truly THE BEST then most of you are too naive.

The best has yet to come my fellow fan boys.

I agree completely, there are no best players at a class.

Soul Wedding is the best monk ever, the best monk that will ever come to grace this game.

After we won a few flawless matches with our monk as the only monk in a previously balanced build, we declared him to be best monk ever.

I have to agree with mimi completly, setting your skillbar to SURVIVE SOLO does NOT take skill, skill is like keeping your team alive while being pressured like hell, or overloading the other monks by COORDINATING with your teammates to divert their healing. Actual player skill IS NOT using healing signet or troll unguent or spamming crippling shot, its ability to play his/her part in a team and do it right.

Doesn't look like any of the people mentioned so far were mentioned for their ability to solo.

Thom's question makes me interested. Here is my list :
Warriors : Acid and Bloodlight Eyes
Ranger : Hutto/Lulu
Mesmers : Obscura and Eun Jong.
Necro : Sheep
It is hard to say who is best monk, but as 2 monks go together, I will choose EW's monks ( Nick and Dephria) or EvIL's monks ( Soul Wedding and Only One Star). I mean when they play together.

Warror: Stefan and his beer belly
Monk: Alesia <3 shes so hawt
Necromancer: Claude and his beastly blood spike
Mesmer: Dunham and his leet distortion spamming skillz

That would be my all-star team right there...the other 4 party members would only slow them down.

I would play every slot and dominate.
Wait... that doesn't work in this universe.

I would go with my guild, some of the most competent players I have come across in-game. In my humble opinion, our GvG team is the best and could wipe the floor with any and all IWAY teams we were faced with


Party leader would be my guild leader: Karl (KARL I LOVE YOU!), and we'd have our very own SUSAN SUMMERS as either monk or flagrunner.

This is a silly thread IMHO. "Best" players indeed, as if there is some metric for "Best Overall Player". The game is much too situational to break things down to that point.
Quoted for truth, kinda.

I think people have "best" and "invincible" confused. It's about what they can do with what they're given. You know... It's the little things that add up to make a big difference. Good spatial awareness, reading and predicting the enemy's actions, using the terrain and jinking to avoid projectiles, bluffing signets to draw out interupts etc.

Warrior: Last of Master, probably. Bloodlight is definately good, too. I just like Last of Master more because he's the one usually teasing the Rangers with Healing Signet. I haven't seen them play since E/Mo's practically took over flag-running though. Oh and Jepp from iB, only seen him play a few times but I've spoken with him before. It's nice to know some people can be good at GW and not let it go to their heads.

I don't watch the other professions enough to really pick one over the rest I've seen.
