Whoohooo go Lerryy

and Dick how come you critisize Larry with you primative skills, you're the last person to critisize a player like him. You're a lagger, you will never get credit in OB no matter how good you are if you lag

Yep.

Agreed, take Cynic he is a cracking player but always got discluded from top tens etc because of his lag.

Annoyed me that did as he deserves more credit than what he got.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of guys recognise his skills and he did make some lists it's just that he was always a top tear player IMO but overlooked due to having a higher ping than whats considered acceptable by most.

Iam not criticizing Larry, I was just wondering why this guy is considered to be so good. Just a general question about OB history. Ive been playing this game for 4 years now off and on, sometimes with long breaks up to a year. But everytime I am online, I see Larry getting dominated by Fatny, Unstop, HTF and/or Bear.

So I wondered if Larry always been second best. If that was the case I wondered why he would be in the HOF. But someone told me that back in the days Larry dominated everyone. So now I understand why he is in the HOF.

I have nothing with or against Larry, was just wondering why ppl think he is that good. And appearently in his prime he was awesome.

As far as I know and have seen. You may be a great fighter or even a true upcoming HOFer but if you lag youll never see any credit.



For example me. I started OB with the ping of 130 on a good night. it wasnt fast but it wasnt the worst ping. I wasnt that bad of a player but no means the best. When the server switched my ping went to 180-198 at times. I was stilling beating some good fighters but always lag was the case.


I made top 10s in some peoples list but alot of top players claimed it was lag. I started hanging out with my cousin which had cable at the time. So I tried ob on a good connection and I did very very well.... But still could have been a fluke.... from that point on every so often I'd play on a fast connection and do pretty damn well winning titles....and beating good fighters or at least making it a show.

After that I decided to call comcast and get cable net. I fought a few 100 fights on NG then I decided to make HTF from that point on once I went to cable I wouldn't be going back to dial up.




lag fighters dont get the credit.....Not saying they arent great fighters but they need to prove it. I didnt under stand it when i lagged but once I got a fast connection i hate lag fighters other then a select few like my old lag partner

Correct HTF I am a lagger and therefor I will never receive any credit. But what does this have to do with Larry?
