Similar players and styles

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2014-04-26 · 34 posts
After seeing the success of my last thread (top 5 best players) I wanted to discuss players who have similar playing style and skills. For example...

1. Rayne and Codeman Both of these players standout to me almost immediately. Whether you assign either HO to rape the base and camps the gens or to clear the flag of hof or lof the job gets done 99% of the time. Best at what they do, both are 1st round draft picks in any CTF tournament. You wont see these two HO capping as much as say a Gunnah or Tarzul but they both will demolish anything in their path for a free grab for your cappers. Both are also great at breaking standoffs. The only difference between the two that stands out to me would be the voice comms. Do I need to explain? Codeman you fucking robot.

2. Hexy and Mistcane This duo more commonly known as ''Hexycane'' may as well be vegetto the way they fuse together on tribal battle grounds. After years of gaming together and conditioning voice comms and play style, both players are extremely versatile on the defensive side of the field. Neither need to communicate with one another much as their instincts take over. They know where one another is at all times and this proves to show they play extremely a like. Both players can play on the stand, snipe, body block, kills in coming cappers...Or play the field and demolish HOs which they are at the top of the A-list in both categories. They are interchangeable and can shut down the best of the best. Whether they are on the same team or not you are more than likely getting the same player with either choice. Besides when Hexy goes offense... or when Mistcane rages. The only difference between the two players imo is Hexy's ability to shrike better.

3. Thaen and Tarzul Imo both of these guys are extremely similar in strategy and leadership. When it comes to making decisions and producing on the field both of these guys follow through. Both can cap, both can HO and HO cap, but what stands out to me most is their similar skill/style when playing LO SP or medium SP and clearing lofs/hofs. Maps like massive for example you can find either of them in your face in a fucking shield pack running in circles around your defense. I would say tarzul is a bit better of a HO capper but they are pretty much the same player on offense. When it comes to defense tarzul is a much better shriker however thaen probably plays the stand better as a lof. I am comparing their offensive play...


So mix it up some other names that come to mind are:

wingedwarrior and lghtspd
wormwood and Sylock
Astralis and Nevares
halo and gunther LOL
Proj and Enimga (when playing lof)




blakie and zergon
darkstrand and penis
gunther and clubkid

hybrid and brolly
brolly and hybrid
slicksters
God and goheels
EnvyAcid and a chaingun turret


Verve and Krash
similar LD styles, very similar LO styles

Zephyr and Astralis
in the few times I got to play with both, I was stricken by how similar their capping styles were

Feathertire and proj
both rage in pubs then switch teams to throw flag to enemy team during standoffs. both have extremely low ping but high rubber-bullet percentage. both have incredible waypoints/fog/other-side-of-hill awareness. both can seem to avoid being IFF'd or spotted, even with waypoints. both have ego issues. both are inferior to non-lagging stormcrows in snipe duels.
this is the dumbest thread and none of your comparisons even made sense to me at least
vax and dark omen
Yeah this is gay. Anyways,

ClubKid and No One Else. This noobfag is truly one of a kind. No one can compete with his utter foolishness.
the people you compare dont even have similar playstyles u newb i'll edit this later with a proper post
halo and berserker

I can cap in light, medium shrike, and HO. Halo can't cap. End rebuttal.

spot on hexy
EFX and Kilar and HotRodRe
(LD who are best used as Anti-HO, putting them on flag is awful use of talents)
Sylock/Wormwood
(Feels a lot like the same player, good HO who does what they are told, doesn't particularly stand out as good/bad HO, but gets job done)
Halo2/Berserker
(Exact same as the two above, but add try-hard, so maybe they get better)
Supaman/Glarm
(Shoot the laser, sort of play flag)
Krash/Adept/SilverEagle
(I can cap fast sometimes, but I need the prettiest/most clear flag stand in the world ever)
BOSS_DOGG/Trees on Woodymyrk
(They just stand there and do nothing)
