Best Contest Team

As far as I know, Hank is still with Duncan, Yuuki left maybe a year ago (I might be wrong there), and Augie left one or two months ago.

Zach’s Nats trophy says hi

YYF and CLYW is catching up

This years Nats were like one of the few times he actually won a major contest. Almost everyone of yoyofactorys team member a have won multiple contests and always place high no matter what contest they compete in.

point taken. I guess I do agree actually.

All the teams are good. Players just have bad days. Its just a matter of whos having A GOOD DAY and what team their on.

Best team is yoyofactory, but my favorite team is yoyojam :slight_smile:

sOMEThING, so much talent.

YYJ:
1A. Eric Tessa
2a. Joseph Grand Yasushi Toshiaki
3a. Alex H. Jun Sora
4a. Rei John Bryan Ben Ian Alex L.
5a. Takeshi Sora AJ

I saw your name, and that you posted in this thread.
This is EXACTLY I had envisioned.

Anyhow, the best contest team changes day by day. Yoyoers do NOT have consistent ratings EVER, so to be able to look at team WWGG and say ā€œthey are better than XXYY,ā€ is a pretty bold (and ludicrous) statement. My example of this is Jensen 2009, Jensen 2010. A player can choke at any time. And the fact that your placement is dependent on other people’s performances as well as your own makes it hard to say that any single team is better than another, because they simply aren’t really ā€œbetterā€. They just had a better day than the members of the other teams. That’s all it boils down to.

I think YYR should get an honorable mention.

Shinya Kido, Ryota Ogi, Takuma Inoue, etc.

Hank hasn’t left Duncan. Matter of fact, Hank is currently the longest standing member of Duncan Crew. He’s just traveling Europe right now.

:smiley:

Not only was Hank one of the very first people invited to join Duncan Crew but he even pre-dates my involvement with Duncan by a couple years. (Hank’s the one in all grey)

Zach placed higher than both Marcus Koh and Hiroyuki Suzuki at 44clash. He’s no longer at the point where he’s barely winning and placing high. He’s going to be a serious contender at Worlds 2013.

Everyone can think what they please. I think Zach is good and much better then many players but CLYW is NOT a better Contest team then YYF. That’s all I’m saying

They’re definitely a good contender. YYF can’t be the best forever. CLYW is gaining many titles under it’s belt. Good for them.

Agreed. Zach has clearly taken his play to another level. He would have to be on any serious list. When I saw his performance at Nats I was amazed at how much more sophisticated and fluid his play has become. It was a joy to watch.

I hear he did very well at 44Clash. Way to go Zach!

Why did you post that video i cant get it out of my head aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh stop whiping please, please
