In the long history of battle.net there's a few legends who stand above the rest.. Dacy.. seph.. and then there's marvel. @ jsp. ...
He's seriously one of the best duelers to ever play the game. He owns the shit out of modders as pure legit, with little effort. It's a crime to even oppose this king among mortals, because when marvel. wants you slain, it's axiomatic that you're going down in a painful way. I know he certainly made an impression on me when I telestomped his bowazon from three screens away on my TMC'ed 163fcr max block 50 dr 7k damage druid along with a fully decked out super-merc and he tanked my amp nados, glithced out and failed my auto tp before my diablo client even synched up with the server. It was at that point that a horribad scum bm modder like me simply had to take my hat off and admit it: "This kid is good."
Whenever marvel. duels, he's making a masterful work of art. The blood moor is his canvas, the blood of fallen duelers his paint.
If there was a such thing as an All Time Gamers Hall of Fame, he would probably be right up there, for his Diablo 2 skill alone. On a bad day, marvel. has more skill in his little pinky then I've ever had in my entire Diablo 2 career. Whenever I heard that his superzon NSA-skiL is going to be in the game, I dodge like a fiend. No way, I'm not going against that again.
The pain from her arrows raining on my parade will last a life time.
I seriously considered uninstalling Diablo II because of it.
Guys like this prove that Diablo 2 is not an old, dead game.. it still lives on, as long as marvel. , at least, is playing it; then it still has some of the best if not THE best who've ever touched the Diablo series. It's an honor to even be in the presence of such unfiltered godhood. He can take some of the most underpowered classes in the game and pull off things that makes your jaw drop. I wouldn't be surprised to see his bowazon win a 1v7 against 7x bvcs with with max block and full dr all attacking him at once. In fact, it'd probably be trivial for him. He could do it casually while working on his taxes and balancing his checkbook in the background.
There's so much more I could say, but the actual scope of his ownage falls beyond my feeble mind's ability to even comprehend.. he's transcended beyond a human being into an immortal demi-god. I'm not even worthy of being in the same game as him.
