imo every team listed nerfed itself with at least one mediocre player besides maybe apostles, but i’m not even here to debate guildsparring teams. the original topic was basically “rashard was only good because everybody else sucked” which is wrong. i’m sure he would be a top tier player right now (in 1v1) if active. not jerking him off anymore past this post, the man can defend himself if he cares enough.

Yeah there were a ton of good sparrers in 2012-2013. Peak time period for iDevice sparring plus all the PC players came over from client overtime.
Ares was seen as the greatest PC sparrer in 2012-2013 by most of the community. He destroyed some of the best sparrers of the time period. Plus back then there was very little delay compared to now.
Comyt dominated 1vs1 spar the same way Ares did back then the only difference is he wasn't flawing every great sparrer online on a daily basis the way Ares was.
Also most client sparrers who have sparred with Thallen and Ares since the early 2000s say very different things about Thallen but there seems to be a consensus to say Ares is one of the greatest of all time if not the greatest.
Just by Thallens history and spar style I think he is a very great sparrer but I agree I've see hits go through him many times. As Aguzo says it could be graal though.
There is generally a consensus that Thallen is the greatest in GST but I understand why people are skeptical about how fair it is. I am too
