The Tordread moonshot out of nowhere is my favorite part of this video. Thanks for the great overview of GL across the years!

[@bigbrady2244]

even his rating chart was aggro

[@DeejusProductions]

I love these sorts of charts, thanks for doing this

[@DeejusProductions]

Also I'm happy I made a brief appearance lol

[@Incuggarch]

This is a really cool way to visualize AWBW history. Great work! 😁

[@humita.channel]

oof that penguin showed up out of nowhere and blasted the graph

[@tehrealoneill]

Ant and that other Chinese player had a strangehold for years, and then in the later half of 2021 everything exploded. I saw you and Deejus pop up towards the end!

[@aa01blue38]

ANT13's domination is even crazier when you put into perspective the standard-specific elo: Standard was basically the only mode at the time so there's no other modes to boost elo, and it was not until ~2022 that his standard record was overtaken

[@AdvanceWarrior]

This video just makes me sad that I missed out on so many years of Advance Wars pvp, regardless of how many times Walker has told me how difficult it was to play back then. But I am happy being an AWBW player today, and during what is arguably it's best state. Great video, boss!

[@atruebossawbw]

Don't worry, right now is the best time to play AWBW :)

[@AdvanceWarrior]

@@atruebossawbwMy current experience has made up for it :)

[@mr.s.i6642]

It was almost unplayable 5 years ago when I tried Awbw for the first time.

[@AdvanceWarrior]

@@mr.s.i6642 Walker told me something very similar. He told me I would've hated AWBW if I tried it earlier.

[@Healcannon]

I only got into watching AWBW a few months ago. I missed out on so much. It feels much like how I didn't realize starcraft broodwar had a competitive scene until the starcraft 2 beta was out. Its awesome to see games like these thriving and having their own stories.

[@semioriginalguy]

As a player that has been on the site off and on since 2005 it’s nice to see a lot of familiar names from long ago

[@ahukawokhami8722]

Hope you are doing well. Its been 10 months you havent posted. We miss you

[@Down516]

Tordread blasting in with his tanks, all Guns blazing !

[@slugmaguts69]

Super cool video. Love seeing familiar names

[@ericd1022]

I enjoy your videos man, keep it up! I especially like the game commentaries

[@MrKingONerds]

This was awesome, as someone who joined the site only a couple years ago it's cool to see what the history is like.

[@davidwhidden9337]

People mentioning Tordread. x123456789, that guy's? Little infantry ran a whole marathon and then some.

[@Go7Penguin]

Let's go penguins!

[@lpsp442]

Noot noot.

[@dhomowars]

Really cool, great work! I left AWBW in 2011 right before the league started ha!

[@younes530]

nice work 👍👍👍

[@m.t.5339]

Tordread shoots up then right back down

[@AdvanceWarrior]

Have to admit, still a strong @$$ player

[@m.t.5339]

@@AdvanceWarrior hell ya, just beat rimer

[@StarFlash250]

Holy shiet how did you make this? Very cool

[@atruebossawbw]

Walker kindly provided me with the site rating data, then I had to rearrange it to find the top players every month and input it very slowly into the graph software, then just edited all the rest afterwards.

[@maxjohnson0703]

Didn’t realize how many people have been playing now vs in like 2012 - 2020

[@lpsp442]

Awesome! Really intriguing watch. I had no idea that Chinese players sat at the top spots for so long until recently.

[@yaiirable]

Awesome!

[@HeadpatsFromSenpai]

Good video

[@brasmak2606]

the current top is more recent than i thought, this was nice to watch.

[@bk1128]

It would be so cool to see some of the old masters come back.

[@Eternalwarpuppy]

Did something change in the MMR scoring system to cause such a surge? It looks like 1400 was as high as anyone could go for years then all of a sudden several people shoot way past 1400 and into the high 1600s.

[@Go7Penguin]

The system was the same throughout, as far as I know, but there were surges of new players which adds points into the system

[@atruebossawbw]

It's caused by rating inflation. The more players that came onto the scene the more points there were to be gained and so the ceiling gets raised.

[@YourUncleDuncan]

That was vury cool

[@peterchauvin1486]

That's cool

[@RaynmanPlays]

The tragedy of T_T

[@yungboi7500]

[@wei270]

[@ekkehard8]

One third of all games were GL?
