In aoe3 high rank was rank 42 (major general). Which most people in that rank knew about rts sanctuary to. I was a col (36) but they are different games indeed. But I also played bw 7 months prior to sc2. | ||

It's an interview from about 6 years ago. http://www.ageofempires3-alliance.com/Artosis.3336.0.html I love that pic hehe ahaha, from the interview: "Can you tell us your history in the video games? Especially in the Age of series. I come from StarCraft, where I have been playing competitively for 7+ years on and off." For some reason, I thought this was really funny. Like, he can't get his mind off of SC and doesn't even address AoE when asked about his past with it. ;p | ||

They have videos and some other rankings @ rornews.net, there's still quite a bit of skill I think. | ||

I played AoE3 for a couple years, although I was never any good (My best rank was around 2nd-1st Lieutenant-ish). AoE3 was the first game I ever played competitively and I have a ton of fond memories.\ Did anybody here spend time on the various AoE Heaven family of sites? | ||

Not Arch Koven or Grunt level, but I played a lot with Chris and Capoch, and I won a tournament, planet age of empires path of the conqueror tournament (which in 2001 had a $500 prize pool). Capoch is the only good AOE2 player I know of that plays SC2, and he was at blizzcon last year representing LA. I have plenty of thoughts on how AOE2 compares to SC2, but I will save them unless there is any interest in them. I am 6 months away from a PhD in Chemistry and I have a 5 month old child, so I am not able to play very much, but I think its the most aoe2-esque game that I've played since that game died. I remember playing in that PAOE tournament, I got smashed by Gx_Kami. I know Gx_Iron played SC2 for a little bit after release, he has competed twice at MLG Dallas for SC2. I think I quit AoE3 right before TWC was released at that time I think i was at PR rank 40 with ELO 2.2k? I forget about the PR stuff but definitely 2.2k ELO. Uh and I guess i was 1800 in AoC and 1900 in AoM(pre-titans). On SC2 release I was top 200 on NA and SEA with zerg but I stopped playing in november 2010. | ||
