Anyone that I recognize from the forums. Vas, Redshift, Zverofaust, Broceratrops etc.

Anyone I recognize from a competitive unit.

Anyone that says they are recording the match

a guy called anudiz. i went against him 3 times and he killed me twice with his 6ppc stalker.
the first time i ran into him i was piloting a jenner, going 150 kph about 600 meters away from him.

i came around a corner and BAM, center torso critical. i immidiately tried to hide behind a rock. after a few seconds i sprinted to the next place to hide, zig zagging and jumping around like an *****, but BAM, another 6 ppcs into my center torso which killed me then.

he did that stunt to a couple other lights as well, his aiming is just ... i dont know, almost surreal.

on one map he ended up being on my team, i was chasing around a jenner on forest colony in my spider 5d. He jumped around like a boss and tried to get rid of me with juming over the hill at E6. his upper torso just went over the said hill and the next thing i saw was a collapsing jenner, still in the sky and a message that said jenner was killed by anudiz with one volley of ppcs.

Now whenever i see him on the enemy team i trie to hug him to death.
I even have a notice on my monitor remembering me to watch out for this guy.


another one i love to hate is sean lang. i dropped acpuple of times against him , garth and some other ngng guys. we managed to kill them once but they returned the favour and killed us 3 times. we still have a score to settle, sean!

i don't really have one either.

will give a shout out if i recognize someone from the forums in the match (which is a rare occurance + i'm horrible at remembering names to begin with) then promptly proceed to have one of my worst matches of the day.

[DjKonline]

All the Red Triangle guys!! But I also enjoy dropping against some of the names I see in TS or persons on my friends list, it's not personal... but knowing that they know is like

How are you guys coming across the same people over and over? It is rare that I see anyone I recognize as having played recent.

My guess is that there are very few players with Elo rating less than 5, so they end up playing each other all the time...

The various numbered Damocles that are out and about.

[Rippthrough]

Everyone.

Power down and surrender your socks.

[JudgeDeathCZ]

Myself.
i have to learn a lot about this game(one thing is how to pilot Atlas...i rly hate them)

[MaddMaxx]

All of those, from the Steering Wheel UnderHive, who would challenge the OverWorld and its Leet group of E-Peen carrying MechWarriors of yore...

P.S. I do feel ganged up on in some games, sometimes. Does that count?

To say rivalry is to give someone some sort of equality...

I have no equal, therefor there is no rivalry to be had.

Back I say ye peasants, back to ye dwellings I say!

Try joining a league and playing competitive. It's easy to think you are good when all you do is pug stomp.

[Bors Mistral]

A nemesis, heh? Could use one of those.

OK, I'm taking volunteers.

[TruePoindexter]

I get excited/nervous when I recognize someone from the forums. It makes me step up my game so as not to disappoint.

[Tice Daurus]

I've yet to have a true nemesis in the game. During early CB, it was Bilbo, but since Bilbo helped recruit me into the DHB, I can't work up the hatred I had for him anymore because he always trounced me in game in the early goings of MW:O. Since then however, I have finally beaten him and my bloodlust disapated and I've gotten to know him and he's a really decent guy offline...when he's not doing drunkship drops.
When I normally recognize someone from the forums especially the meme thread, my competitive spirit jumps up several notches, but it's not like I have a hatred rivally for anyone anymore. And I've pretty much trounced most if not all of the people on the forums anyway. Not bragging, but it's...just not the same anymore. Maybe it's just burnout, maybe it's just lack of excitement for the game...I dunno. And it's not like many people here go..."Hey it's Tice Daurus! I'm gonna crush U!!!!" I'm not that important.

I will say this however, I do derive a sense of satisfaction however everytime I run into see a forum troll and trounce the crap out of him. I won't say it purposely to be mean, but there are times I've thrown up some fist pumps when I trounce someone that posts the most idiotic crap here. And I'll not post it in the game chat. I try to be nice towards everyone, but there is a sense of satisfaction when I crush someone that is truly idiotic and they end up posting inane crap on the forums. Privately, of course.

I can't really tell you the names of my rivals because I nurture secret romantic affections for them.

[Xtrekker]

Anyone who starts mouthing off over chat at the beginning of a match. SQUAWKers were top of that list. Don't see many of them these days...

[Denno]

I'm not important, or good enough to have an arch-enemy yet.

[Whompity]

The names are all a blur to me, so I have no idea. Someone this morning said "nice playing with you, ms. maybach" after the game had ended, but I have no idea if that was just flavour or what.

[Merky Merc]

My current nemesis is most definitely, the kaleidoscope monster.

Idk I used to murder every LRM boat I saw, now I just feel bad for the few that are left.

[TheFuzzyBunny]

Meh. Pew Pew... Whoosh Whoosh!

[BlackWidow]

All y'all !
