hello everyone. I feel i should clarify this from my perspective. From when i dinged 70 to when i blew up my daggers (maybe 1.5years later?) i don't remember losing in a series to anyone except fluppy. I don't care if i got jumped out in cz by a group of people, that stuff happens all the time to anyone. I could write a list of people that i beat and it would include pretty much every good player on ares and a few from other servers also (hitmachine was 7-2 to me). Most of them had a gear or level advantage against me (NYchris, Somethingsmells, Fastfingaz, Lordos, Buddha playing NYchris, infi, Perpetuous, Darkness, MONSTERKILL, SoulSlayer, Krakatoa, Futility, F9, Bacardi151, Xrated, and loads more). Of course i didnt record every fight. I duelled anyone at the time, even if they were obvious cheaters. Back in those days, EVERYONE knew how to combo well, the standard was higher because there weren't retards using DD helms spamming 3 minor heals like there are now.
After i released my 1st movie and combo guide, people became so desperate to record a win against me that they would resort to anything, killing me afk in arena, or like KIMPEE did, ask for a duel and then only show in a movie the fight i was not HP scrolled in, ignoring all my wins afterwards, when i especially told him not to. After months and months of people doing this, it is hard not to be cynical about duels and to stay friendly towards people who will put you on youtube if you lose and call you a cheater if you win. I refused to duel anyone i felt had a totally unfair item/level advantage. After beating hitmachine on a pretty even character originally, he asked for a rematch on Arcangel, who had +9shells and +3uniques, confirmed by a friend. People said i was a pussy for declining a duel that was a certain loss. Whatever...
Probably the biggest mistake was duelling beterr a few weeks after i blew up my daggers. I was using mirage +7 and sherion +7, and was out of practice, versus a guy 5 levels higher with +9daggers and god knows what else. As expected, it went on youtube and the flaming kept going and going, i quit a bit after that because it is not fun when the game turns into having to duel dupers just to prove yourself. When people will side with a cheater over me when they don't even know me, it made me lose any faith in the ko community. I am not "stuck up", if you judge me on my forum posts alone which are 90% windups and trolls then that is your problem.
edit: read somewhere that my combo was slow...
the first combo on the int priest in my trailer, and the combo against f9 is about as fast as you can possibly go without failing skills. Its about consistency, not speed. if some people are so much faster, i have never seen them.[/b]
