Woah woah buddy, tbf i wasn't gonna go for 200m first on invention since i thought scuzzy just had it, but then he slowed down a lot. I calculated and saw that i could snipe it if i spent 20-30b so i went for it. If i had gone out and be like "HEY SCUZZY IM COMMING FOR THAT RANK", he would probably just picked the speed back up at a better spot and get rank 1...
Was never my intention to be sneaky honestly

He bought it. End of story. There's no skill involved in that. Praise him all you like. But having the biggest bank does rule this game. Always has and forever will. I find that difficult to praise.

He had to earn the bank though. Like it or not Le Me has earned his rank by being one of the best known merchants in the game, perhaps not in history of the game (I have 2-3 head in my mind) but certainly as a current player he is.

When you look at people like Maikeru or any of the others who went for #1 they were never going to win the race. Maikeru was always going to require selling items in his bank or relying on donations to win toe to toe, and even then it was very unlikely he would win.

Le Me had experience of 200M Races, the capital and also the same intensity as all of the other top players.

It's like comparing a big company like Apple with a start-up, maybe the start-up has equally talented people, but they don't have the capital or experience in the market.

Don't forget Le Me also turned down a Guildmaster Tony's Mattock early on through not being the right price, he wasn't the first to buy one. Maikeru got one given to him early on (to borrow, free).

Between the top players they may have put in similar hours, but Le Me not only had the same consistency / intensity, he also had the financial capital to have an edge on other players.

You can't really say anything against Le Me when it comes to the race, he earned it just as he earned his wealth. There is absolutely no devaluing the accomplishment.

There's absolutely no reputing it, there have been some great skillers in the past, Drumgun, Zezima, the Old Nite, TKS, Suomi, N0valyfe (there are plenty of others slipping my memory right now) but Le Me will be remembered in that bracket in the coming years, just he's not playing at the games peak years, perhaps he doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

To say otherwise lacks foresight and humility.

he was talking about invention. for that time.

and are you saying getting the biggest bank in game requires no skill? is that why you dont have the biggest bank?

money has always been involved in being rank 1. from the start

for the race with arch. are you saying rank 2 3 4 5 etc didnt have the bank? (even though they did) le me won by a huge margin. with 2 3 4 being taken with in a few hours. but rank 1 to rank 2 was a huge gap. skill is required for that.

dont be so salty

Here's somewhere you'll find actual skill

https://secure.runescape.com/m=hiscore_ironman/c=vn-Ps-sG5Wo/ranking?category_type=0&table=28&date=1590711819279&time_filter=0&page=1

Iron accounts pre-99(and honestly pre-105) had to figure out how to efficiently spend chronotes in order to effectively grab upgrades, achieve the expedition hour count for the different qualifications, as well as some having to sacrifice days to grind for dragon mattocks(assuming they didn't get lucky with tetras) for space and time.
