  • Players that influenced your style of play.

    Most everyone who becomes good sits back and learns while watching this game. Who are the people that influenced your style of gameplay and where?

    The people that influenced my style of play are:
    Spybreak! - Used to sit in arenas with him and just experiment with burst shooting/dodging and games of the sort that helped you get great at burst selection and dodging
    Utopia - Great overall player and terrier who I learned off of during his WildFire and Cripples days. Learned Javelin and Warbirds from him. Cool guy.
    Hannes - This guy is my shark, he and I have the best shark/terrier combo in Trench wars at the moment
    Domi - Been playing with him a long while, got great teamwork with him and work with him like clockwork
    Sika - Showin' the skills back in the TWT Disoblige vs. -FINAL- days for me and a couple years before with earlier ventures and elimination whoring; Showed me that you can be respected and disliked at the same time as long as you have skills, sort of infamous I guess (dumbass people)
    Lord Viper V - Used to be one of the greatest terriers in Trench wars and I was glad to play javelin/spider on the Zero hour team while he was there; Learned alot of aggressive play from him
    Ruby and Divine Rides - Learned how to dodge warbirds from these clowns.
    Fireballz - Second shark I figured out how to play with like clockwork
    2dragons - Great squaddie who helped me use bots in private arenas with spybreak! a couple years back for practicing
    brookus - Him and I have switched back and forth for the last few years as the best terriers. We used to play hella together and kinda see who would man-up a better performance every time. Was great competition and still is. Used to switch burst shots with him.
    Khisanth - Showed me how to pub right and practice with pub to perfect certain skills
    Talon - Always pubbed with him bounty racing
    Thundermare - Played Star Warzone for basing with him and pubbed with him on those stoned summer late nights/ early mornings
    Raspi - Watching aggressive spiders and having one on my team
    Spearhead - Watching spider perfection and learning technique
    FieryFire Poozzman Destroy Death row and SaiyanSoldier - When you play around great players you get better. These are all great warbirds and utility players for overall great games.
    DUMBRIT! - Best spider I work with and learned how to drop him off so that he's the best spider out there. He is the number one spider in Trench wars and I'm sure at any time can stick out a 18-8 vs. anyone in warbirds or javelins. Any team. Gangster.
    No one can kill me - For showing me that place shooting is useless and randomly lucky. And that good players shouldn't turn into place shooters.
    Warportal - Though, I never lost to him--everyone predicts for him and we have a little feud type of shit. He's a great terrier to play against and keeps the competition rolling
    Mantra-Slider - Probably greatest utility player out there but never quite committed enough to help disoblige get number one since around trench wars pyramid thingy. He made mad base games happen with skilled players in private arenas and tune my game.
    Blood and Banzi - Learned how to play javs and warbirds, though I thoroughly own blood.
    JeBu - His whimsical attempt to speak English kept me on some times just to see the stupid shit he'd type
    Mythrandir - Elaborating on the cram and his practice league he helped create along with the private basing arenas helped my game overall. Even though, pub is the best place to practice any ship.
    AcidMouse and Sorted - Former huge dominant warbirds that are fun to watch
    BoKi - For showing us that you can suck and be on a good squad
    Wix - Being a representative of public arenas and skills
    DaBram Bram - One of the best spiders now-a-days and used to watch and learn from during his elimming days at scrotal's horde!!
    Ara - Learned how to be a clutch player and how to play an even record and to dodge and run in warbirds
    Disqualifier - For showing me how the best squad in Trench Wars works not once, but twice
    Mjollnir (skeleton) - Being one of the best duelers out there/ javelins too
    Mikena - Learning how to get on fire
    Incognito and K.J. - Javelins
    Arsen - baseelim guy

      None of these players can take credit for how badly i suck, because most of the time when i neglect to dodge or don't aim straight, it's my own fault, but these people showed me the ropes in tw.
      • eRad - showed me the rock shot when i started playing tw and repeatedly beating me 10-0 in duels back in the onix days was an inspiration to get good at this game someday and hopefully if/when that day comes, i can beat him in a duel (probably will never happen, especially since i dont wb anymore)
      • Hercules - for showing me some key moves in javs and teaching me how to rush, when to shoot bullets, when not to and all the little things that go along with the jav game.
      • Lews Therin - Trying to train me in wbs, showing me how to rush and how to defend against rushers
      • Rule - when i first started to play javs, i asked him for some advice, he told me about the very basics about squad duel javing and also after a while told me to stop typing and ignoring my enemies and to just focus only on the game when i'm playing and to not argue with people (still workin on that).
      • Annul - watching him rush and now getting a chance to rush alongside him in squad duels is helpful, well, when he's not trying to rack up double-digit in tks.
      • 2dragons - for schooling me in wb duels by using rocks like no one else i've ever seen and showing how valuable they can be

          Da Maniac :invited me to #mythrandir, after wich I actually started basing.
          Pasco : he ruled Camisade a bit as a dictator, but nonetheless he pushed the entire group we had to a higher level. I guess I used his style in spider when I started to spider.
          Pearl Jam : for like actually pick me in #mythrandir, and as shark mostly.
          Greven : If I was with Greven I'd still would be sharking I guess, great to shark with.

                  Wix - For recruiting me and teaching me what 'being on the rag' was all about (I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.)

                  Danyo - For teaching me what 'hatred' was all about (Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.)

                  Boki - For teaching me what 'being a hard ass' was all about (Do I look like a people person?)

                  Louis - For teaching me what 'not giving a shit' was all about (I have plenty of talent and vision. I just don't give a damn.).

                  Cig - For teaching me about how much a person can change (It sounds like English, but I can't understand a word you're saying.)

                  Mitch - For teaching me what ego is all about (I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to worship me.)

                  Drow - For teaching me how to switch positions quickly (Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.)

                      Just a few guys I can remember actually helped and practiced with me, this is for WB only.

                      Skater, Nepleptic, Fireballz, Soul Burner

                      Those were the main 4 guys, I'm sure I picked up lots of things from people in elim, back when there was no res limit I would watch guys like Tofu, Lowball, Static Burn mainly. After the res limit, I wasn't as worried about watching what other people were doing, I had my own style after that.
