I nominate me for... best user of dash to avoid attacks.
Although I have a question. Is this for PvE or PvP? Because PvP would be better fit in the Colosseum subsection. Also, if it is for primarily PvE, what is the criteria for being legendary?

Is it...
Taking out a rocket pup danger room solo on elite with 3 idle knights you are carrying through with only a combuster? Gunning down RT with 3 idle knights in about 5 minutes on elite? Or is it just the standard kill Vanaduke on elite while wearing proto armor (+ proto weapons for even more legendary goodness!).

put me in a sworder bro (did vana swords only if ye want pr00f)'

Also, best PvE player I've ever seen:
Nalrayi.
Vok is top 10, but Nalrayi is the best I've ever seen.

Last I checked, none of these people are getting paid to play SK professionally, so what exactly makes them a 'pro'?

All joking aside, egojerking checklists like this are just bound for drama. This oughta be good.

Swordsman-Ernst/Ernst-Swordsman for Swordie. He's a pure swordy. Both are his characters. Totally devoted to swords. Got the scissor blades too. Anyways, he really knows how to get the edge with a sword (pun intended).

Er, is this PvE or PvP? Either way I hate trying to give a best list. There are too many good players out there... but if we're crossing the line to PvP beware the rage that comes with it :p

Fangel

This thread looks fun

I nominate myself as a great fiend fighter. I'll say I can also make due with sword/gun combos. I wouldn't really want to say I'm exceptionally wonderful at this game, but I don't place myself below any average line made.

If this is PvP related, then drop me down to the team support role because when confronted with an enemy player alone, if they're a striker,I will lose 9/10 times.

I wish I could remember names but the only people I do runs with are randoms, and I don't convert their names to memory.

This is just random but whatever. I'm a bomber.

No-Thanks

gun - blueflood
bomb - eeks, rits(i think both quit)
sword - bladoom(maybe quit)

could vote more, but ppl often play solo, so i dont have many memories of gd players

ld:
gun - blueflood, motorcat
sword - namewithnumbers, sushh, tetriatics, kid-knightx(or ght-x?), chris, bacon-strip, tennis and many others(i know that darkcub n exileddread get pretty high dmg numbers, but the players that i listed have often proven to be good strategists too)
bomb - maybe if they still played eeks, rits

Krakob

I can't see Qwote on the bombers list. Shame on you!
Also, I'd like to see Bopp's name added to the swordsman list due to his awesome sword guide and I don't even know how long of helping nublets on the forums with their questions about swordsmanship and other things.

I do have one question about these people, anyway...
How many of them are people who actually have most weapons of their class, try them around, find a use in all of them, and don't just roflstomp everything with a triple max Voltedge?

Well said.

Krakob

@Hexzyle

Same. I've been a swordsman for two and a half years and I am in possession of most swords and I've found a use for them all. There's no sword I don't know where to use and if I'm using it, how to use it (except Wrench wand, where might that leftwards knock be useful?). After too many FSC runs with Combuster charge spamming and whatnot, the only joy I find in swordsmanship lies in strange and/or complicated tactics like switch swinging heavy swords (and light swords in LD), dashing along Spookats and knowing when to not shield cancel and midstepping with WRH, and so on.

Exploring tactics that require great cooporation is also highly interesting. Basically anything that involves Zeddy and an arena, that is.

You can technically make CE, use the CE to buy TF2 items, and then sell TF2 items on the steam market.

Thus, play SK for a living.

Shamanalah

my 2 cents

I don't get this Thread...

Nothing to show off how good people are, just a list of random names because people think they are good...

Some of my guild member "pros" and why they are pro:

Niyn - a legendary french knight rocking Chaos, even on SL FSC w/o dying

Psycomenthos - Another legendary french knight who's main purpose is to do speed-run vana the fastest (16 minutes for current Elite FSC Speed-Run)

Alphablade - 3000+ hours grind on the game (he's loaning 8k ce and grind cr from FSC to repay, easily!!)

Moukilleur - Awesome grinder player

Megadrone - One of the best hammer wielder of the game (also accused of using AT in LD while he never does, seriously, he's THAT good)

And me as a PvE soloer (all prestige mission done on Elite solo and a lot of personnal challenge done, FSC in 2*, RJP no shield, FSC no shield and so on...)

Each and everyone of us can do any SL w/o any problem.

Proof of our PvE strenght

I personally had 158 boxes and did a 32 minutes video with the member missing on that video...
