It is like shooting fish in a barrel. Hell I see one guy that won over 200 straight games doing this.
If you are really interested to find out who the best players are, install Map Rank, and check out their average rank opponents. This will give you a better understanding of who the best players are. I see a couple of players among this list that are indeed very good players, but the rest are just noob farmers.

I don't play them because they only play noobs. If you think that earning points from beating unskilled players makes you a good player, that is your opinion. You have to play and beat the best to be the best in any sport that i can think of. And you are right about the Map Rank debate. I do not wish to get into that debate again, but this guy is asking a question, and I am telling him what I think. You are free to tell him what you think. But I am not going to debate the issue with you or anyone else. I am sure that if he or anybody else wants to study this issue further, they can just go to the forum archives and find all the different views on this debateprismsaber wrote:porkenbeans wrote:These are NOT the top 10 players.

First of all we don't need to start that map rank debate again. Your theory of map rank = skill has already been thoroughly refuted in other threads.
Secondly, you play 1v1 on weird maps. Therefore, you wouldn't have a clue about who the best players are because you don't play them (the only way to judge that is worth a poop).
I play everything but freestyle. I only play multi-player games if I know the players. There too many cheats and multies, to do otherwise.prismsaber wrote:Some would probably play a private game or two with you but you'd have to go outside of 1v1 sequential.

Grab some friends and lets play a team game.It will be me, Prism, and 2 more vs you and 3 people of your choosing in a seq quads game.
Lets put those skills to the test.
Surely you are not a noob, and thus it would not be farming would it?
Or a seq Triples if you like

I know what you mean by it being hard to keep your RR up as you move up in rank. Especially when you start public games, as I do. My RR has dropped to .90 as a result. Still an EQ. but I can certainly see myself dropping off of EQ status sooner or later. I have always said that the cut off points should be re-evaluated. The stats are indeed the true story. They are after all only a compilation of various facts. It is those facts and how to interpret them that Map Rank tries to address. Chip has done a great service to players by attempting to do this. However, as has been pointed out before, As a player gets toward the top of the leaderboard, it is increasingly harder to maintain an EQ status.Mr Changsha wrote:porkenbeans wrote:These are NOT the top 10 players.

I suspect you mean the no.2 Rabbiton. Currently playing with him, and I have to say, never have I played with/against someone who has made me feel so amateurish. Absolutely top class player.
Map Rank only goes so far..it is a great guide to the relative strength of an opponent on a particular map or style, but the equaliitarian tag is the irrelevence I have always said it is. I myself am beginning to drop below 0.8, and I rarely play anyone below a captain, in fact I always try and play the best opposition I can. Yet on current form I'll be in the noob farmer category..yet it means nothing, other than that I am struggling to find players of my level who can play my styles effectively, or have the interest in playing my styles.
However, you are right to the extent that the Top 10 may not be the best ten players...but so what? This is hardly a revelation! You have to be playing for points to reach the top 10 and a lot of the truly best have dropped out of it due to a lack on interest in being over say 3,000 points. But I would venture that most of the truly great CC players have made the top 10 at one time or another. I would certainly say that at some point I myself would like to try and get there and consider it at least a part of what makes a great CC player.
But go back to your 1vs1 games...which are the real standard by which all great CC players should be judged...!
Best player in CC
