I will not list every player I know and thinks he deserves a mention.
Maybe some will already disagree with the list as it is, but its based on my experience.

Everybody can put himself or others to where they think they belong.

Pulsey make your own list.. Mine was written on the phone and it's far from perfect since i was not jsaed.. I mean focussed ofc i admit - you should be above patat..

Weisblut (chuckle).

Did he pay you?
Did you type BB instead of DD?

Billy Walsh is Gui, putting Gui in the same group as Weisblut is amusing, but sort of flawed with him in BB and AA.

actually i just opened the category to say everything beyond BBB is the same for me ;)

I edited it.

anyone who claims to be above me should look at their ugly ladder stats first.

pulsey best.

ur proud of stalling?

stall or no stall i'm still better than swimming noob

http://warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=5314

was ranked to be #6 untill i got bored playing MD with alt and gave up all games

btw to be arrogant as you are you should at least be a good player :|

Edited 7/6/2014 11:52:06

I'm pretty sure you lost those last two games anyway. Its no good saying 6# if you didn't actually finish.

I would be classed as A or BBB , I dont win wery ofthen , however thats not my weakness

mostly A

Agreed, your an excellent player mysteryman

Yay !

You should try joining [20] clan

My ratings:

1. Piggy
2. Piggy
3. Piggy
4. Piggy
5. Widzisz
6. Piggy
7. Piggy
8. Piggy
9. Piggy
10. Piggy

1. mysteryman

JSA is rating himself on average guys. Obviously he's number one when focussed and way out unfocussed. I think 9 is a fair average position.

Ahahah pulsey is noob. Maxi could beat him with one hand behind his back.

My list:
1. nah im too lazy ..

EDIT: Don't be to hard on JSA, remember he is retired!

No one is putting Fizzer on their lists.

Is he even a decently good WarLight player?

Best overall: 1v1s, team games (large and small), FFAs, numerous maps, LD, multiattack...

I seriously doubt any of your rankings take into account the totality of WL. And since the forum seems to overemphasize the importance of the ladders (very limited) and our leagues (also limited), I doubt we will ever go beyond this type of subjective measure of "best overall" players based on limited experience and knowledge.

A universal ELO would help. In the absence of a universal ELO, a league with 1v1s, 2v2s, 3v3s, 4v4s, LD 1v1s, multiattack 1v1s, and FFAs would be the next best option.
But we will never have a Best Overall Player Competition:

(1) the "best" players will cherry pick which games/tournaments they join, if any, based on what they are good at and/or what they like;
(2) top FFA, multiattack, and LD players are largely overlooked and wouldn't be invited;
(3) it is an organizational nightmare;
(4) it would involve too many games over too long a period of time.

So, we are left with rumors and gossip, forum chit-chat, Fizzer's limited ladders, a limited Champions League (no LD, MA, or FFAs, limited sample size).

In the meantime, anyone who even uses the words "best overall" is a bit presumptuous. You need data to measure such a thing! Currently, we have incomplete data!
