I am curioushow everyone classifies a top tier player-
I would break it into 4 categories
tier1- builds consistent top 10kds that are killed because they are threats
ex- tank wolf, lynog, Jones, Pussy, flazer , many more- o
tier 2- has an ability to run wars, destroy other alliances and improve activity
Fepo, Cobras, tyrsis, Neal/kes, Guardia, etc
tier 3- Top hof kds.
tank killer > all
tier 4. pro whores who can stay alive and finish top 10
so many- don't even know where to start-only in dreams (the most consistent pro who're I know) seperithoth
I think thats how I see it, there is definitely crossover- but Idk- what do you all think

Rank 16 -people getting PK'd when FW
Damdred
(thinking about the the whole Uni has been like this this round lol)
Pussyland isnt tier 1 at all, cobras is much better than him
Tier 1 = top 10
Tier 2 = 11-30
Tier 3 = 31-100
Tier 4 = People who would finish top 10 if they just knew how to survive a round.
Tier 1 - early top 5 (not out of newbie) around week 1-2
Tier 2 - those that finish top 5 after a few people die
Tier 3 - 5-15
Tier 4 - rest of the top 100
Tier 5 - 100 - 250
Tier 6 - Illyria
tier 1: dw/ fw
tier 2: mt/ mount
tier 3: mysti/ volc
tier 4: terra
tier 5: oceanic
tier 6: hg
In my opinion the strategy of this game is more than building skills, its finishing skills as well. You have to take everything into account, and if you finish at the top you are doing it right, if you die before the end, you are doing it wrong.
You can't just say all the good players get killed off because they are a threat. The real good players know when to be a threat and when to fly under the radar.
It's like the game Risk. If you over extend you get smacked down by everyone because you are a threat. You have to take a small continent, 1-2 chokes, build up your defence, make yourself unhittable, then when the big guys finish going kamikaze on each other you move out and win.
If you want to make a Tier list based on what is fun to play, or who is most respected by the community, by all means, go ahead. but if you want to make a Tier list based on skill (the ability, coming from one's knowledge, practice, aptitude, etc., to do something well) then this:
Tier 1 = top 10
Tier 2 = 11-30
Tier 3 = 31-100
Tier 4 = People who would finish top 10 if they just knew how to survive a round.
is accurate.
Surviving to the end isnt a skill, you can login once a day explore build sms on FW and finish top 5 when people are killed in wars easily, that isnt a skill.
A skill is getting to the top before the good players die, in week 1-2 there is actual competition for the top 5 spots.
If you was to play the round with the intention of surviving and building a survival kingdom and didnt finish top 5 id be worried.
In other words, a 'skill' as Qwj puts it, is someone with no life.
It's a matter of opinion. I happen to think if you don't get kted your useless and should go play FarmVille... This is a war game,not pretty pretty kingdoms.
Tier 1 - Top HoF
Tier 2 - Top breakers
Tier 3 - Whores
That is accurate. Playing for rank on a text base,prize-less game is just boring and a waste of time IMO.
Thats not accurate at all, because even if you turtle and do really well at it, you will still get multied/ ktd for being a potential threat. So if you you find this bank who maxes your probes, you instead tell other people so they would rob it instead of you, they would do better. Then those players would get killed cause they are doing better than you. Then by your count, the player who did worse would be a better tier than the players who did better than you.
This isn't about endgaming scores where we see ranks based on the archives that could be seen as being a top tier player. If you really want to flaunt your ego so much that you have to have some sort of credibility as a player because you can't do good during early/ midgame compared to other players, then shut the fuck up because you lack credibility in total if you can't manage anything on anyone.
