Players that influenced your style of play.

[Solidify]

Demonfaze, Weaver, and Mattey- All great wbs made me want get better in wb, but none of them know me of course.

CrimsonX- Probably none of you know him, but he was a sick mother fucker, and he taught me how to play, he made me want to get better so I coudl kick his ass. So he could stfu about saying how much he owned me in school

Everest- Hes the one that brought me to .?go base and I actually got picked while on Elenya, go figure eh

And spiders like: koan, hellzno, sleepy weasel, Philos, nuudeli, holydude, bram. None of them know me, but watching them helps a lot.

IcyK, Gemfire- We all used to have hardcore competition between us, made me get better faster.

[HellzNo!]

Dueling Javelin- Mr. spam and DarK! would have to be my biggest influnces here. Dark! tought me baseelim and basic skills, spam taught me 5v5. Playing alongside pj non stop for 3 years has really helped my game, and i always feel confident with him beside me. Also, playing aside great javs liek scuzzy and blood, as well as smart javs like lethe and koan can only help your game. Also, strategically, FON helped out my game the most, than scuzzy sureshot and mythrandir.

Base Javelin- The big 3, probably my most favorite javs of all time besides pj, mostly because this was my favorite base ship at the time they were teaching me, and the 4 of us seemed liek pioneers in the base javelin. Mr. Spam, mr.mew, and Jedi <ER>, these guys taught me every shot i know, every step of base javelin, and practicing with these guys helped me alot. There was always pearl jam, but when he started javving, i basically gave up on the ship realizing my time was done that doesn't mean he didn't teach me anything tho.

Base spider- I learned almost everything about base spidering from rogermexico, and like pj said, he taught me every ship in basing i know. He was the smartest baser of all time, and i guarantee that if he was still active he'd have this team as the powerhouse of basing without a single loss and be a championship squad each season. with the skill we have now, and his coaching, we'd be unstoppable. Also, i learned alot from watching and playing against diso's spiders, although i don't liek admitting it, bram thunder nockm x machine etc... all taught me how to spider. Also, props to sleepy weasel.

Dueling bird- i basically learned this from elim, where i spent most my time my first year playing this game. I always watched banzi and fbz play, who were probably my biggest influences, but sleepy weasel also helped my wb game alot. Also, i can't forget x-wing, a pure wb dueling squad, we played 2v2 3v3 4v4 5v5 anything we could within our squad to practice, and it worked, we all developed our games, too bad we split up, we coulda went places.

[K2Grey]

Rough, koan

[Due]

Dele & Kam: showed me the better art of WB's

[Kid Kaos]

Anyone from the old Siege squads, I used to watch them alot in elim, especially Banzi.

But over the years I learned my own style of playing in a warbird, althought I tend to forget how to from time to time, must be why im sucking recently.

[IVelocityI]

Annihilator13 - Showed me how to do radar shots, and tips for dodging.
DeMoNoFdArKnEsS - Taught me how to rush, and when.

[Noah]

Oh, and large props for Rejected Basers who taught me alot in basing

[Nimrook]

Basing
Thundermare.. he was the one who taught me base javing like 3 years ago when he was on Cripples.

Javing
Well i'll say the whole Shriek squad changed the way i play jav... they all play in an aggressive way... which made me into a pretty aggressive javer also.. but Top did train me for awhile when we were on Aura.

WB
wb.. i would say monkee and foxy... they were always wbing with me when we were on Sk8.. then Shriek's style made me even better.. thanks to annul and them.. =)

[Torn Wing]

Skatarius - For teachign me that letting go of the shift key is not an option.
A. I. - For recruiting me to U F O my first squad, and getting me started into dueling.
Aura - (Auraz) For being an awesome guy even though he's mentally retarded and I have to feed him intreveneously.
Honor - For giving me a name that was halfway decent.

[Awesome]

lol i think a lot of you missed the point

i think this is supposed to be a thread listing people who helped you get better at the game and who influenced your style, not "Player A - he gave me a cool name, oh and Player B stands up for me when bullys harass me"

[Exotic]

basing -brook , telling me how to spid, nockm , got some jav shots from him, and raspi for getting me into basing

javs - rough ,i dunno why, i come over and he tells me some stuff sometimes

wb's - exotic

[Nickname]

Dueling:
(J)
Path of Daggers First teacher to ever kinda show me the jav ropes, i knew a bit abotu javing but he really helped me a lot.
TopGod kinda took me to the next level.

I went mostly after this on my own, but Rough and me have talked about it a lot. I think i really learned the total element of succesful jav teaming from my cripple days (so wix, arsen, aprix, rip, decoy, drow etc)

(W)
Soul_Hunter back in like my first few days this guy kidna showed me the ropes.
Caramon wow more old names, my first real rival if you will he was awesome and we were really evenly matched. If we did 50 duels we'd each win 25.
Path of Daggers again, showed me the real ropes.

I then went into a huge funk. I should also mention XeQshunR, he taught me some stuff.

Ripper and A Dceoy Crips days again, showed me how to team really well.

Thats basically it, i'm not huge on the wbs, i seem to be able to either aim or dodge really well, but neither at the same time, someone feel free to show me.

Basing (Jav)

Nickname I taught myself everything to the poitn where i was right behind PJ and nockm as the best base javs of the era. I really just learned how to use my lag probperly from watching the tmares, pjs, nockms etc of the day and how not to by watching 2d.

Basing (Shark)
Bloodzombie was my first and only real sharking partner for the first half of TWL season 6 with Palliesh. Perhaps the best shark in the entire game.

Then the cram came and i stopped caring.

EDIT: writing this makes me want to come back and lag you all in the base jav some more.

[LaG KiLLeR]

scuzzy sureshot for playing javs with me everyday for a while and teaching me how to jav correctly. Setting up a chat for just me and him when I needed help. good friend.

topgod for teaching me more of the fundamentals of the javelin game, predictioning opponents, making them go where you want them to go.

jon/genes and some others for being good ass people to team with 2 on 2. can't touch us biznatch.

-Legacy-/Supremacy/Aura/Ceo For bringing back my wb game. I can finally aim radar with my 800/600 resolution and don't have to ruush only.

deluge for losing to me horribly in a wb duel...that boosted up my ego and self-confidence

lag killer for teaching myself to rush...lots of you guys just can't handle it. jav/wb/weasel what is it.

[LaG KiLLeR]

Ancients: for giving me a reason to kill all you fucking stupid terminally ill ugly looking crap monsters (Except pakastin, your cool). Other than that, you guys are actually somewhat of motivators to make me try or do better. All that spam and bullshit just gives me inspiration and determenation to beat your bitch asses.

[Mutha-Tucka]

Jessup (youaredead) - first man to ever let me on a squad, taught me alot about WB also.

jazzed up - taught me how to dodge.
