RULE has gotten a lot worse than when he was at his best.

RULE fairly walks through every opponent he is tasked with on LB right now, winning his last GC after barely battling for a year.

If the standards used to be lower, how can this be the case?

GrizzEAT, Dissizit, ILLoKWENT, Rican and whoever else is a top name right this second, are NOT better than Illimit, UNKNOWN ARTIST, DaDDiO and Jason. Nothing against the 4 guys. As long as they don't let up and ease off the elevation they might be the greatest to ever grace the site, but that's just a fact.

The standards right now, when barely a single top name on the site knows how to properly use wordplay, are ridiculously low. I bet not a single guy on LB now could take a tournament on Netcees, where as in the past LB guys went and dominated on other sites as well as being big here.

This is all pretty much the reasons I focus on elevation so much. Maybe this second things aren't their best, but they might well be again and every bit of investment into that is worth it.

Just my spin on the debate going on here.
