    I strongly disagree. Just because you have bad memories of playing with Kanital (teaming) doesn't mean that he's not a great bird. He was on top of his game during caps where skill mattered more than luck. Kanital was one of the best xbow players/kiters that I've seen in the game even to this day. He really thrived off of his knowledge of range. You may say that "Kanital is not a good 1v1 player," but there's a reason why he went so far in 1v1 bird tournaments. And of course, one of the best duos that I've seen with such great chemistry was Kanital alongside Kellylita/Imkelly. Both great ranged players.

    If you were to reasonably take away any of the birds on the list, it should be Skimmey in my opinion simply because he did absolutely nothing after GCD. He didn't like the new system, so he renamed to Freeusfromgcd, hopped on for a few games here or there (and was really below average because he wasn't used to it) and then just quit the game out of frustration. You can't tell who multi-touched before GCD was implemented and the fact that he quit the game shortly after is a really good indication that he did. Other 'powerhouses' of the 56 cap like Xrax and HmmHmm definitely deserve to be ranked over him in my opinion because they never lost a step even after GCD was implemented.

    As for your other opinions, they're fair assessments. I would most likely put Nun on a top 10 list. The thing with Nobounds is that he was really great at one cap (76) and okay at other caps. And of course, he was great when pallies were one of the best types of classes in the game at 76 which kind of raises questions over where he should be placed. In the caps before that, he kept switching between dex, int, and str and never really mastered one. I would put Alwaysdtf/Absolutepally above him as a pally simply because Dtf never switched from being a pally. He was a pally for as long as I've known him in the game and was never bad at it, even when int or dex mages were clearly superior options. He's even made it to the finals of a 1v1 tournament when the game was filled with int mages at the 66 cap (and probably should have won, due to the buff glitch).

    Some players that perhaps deserve a spot on an all time list:
    Nun
    Crash
    Nobounds
    Papapat (one bear I really think should be on the list compared to some of those bears)
    Ace
    Ice
    Xrax
    Hmmhmm
    Zo
    Azi
    Alvin
    Flacs
    Haha's bear
    Edensfury

    Just off the top of my head. Most definitely forgetting some people.
