Haha so glad you mentioned it. I was just thinking of my old nickname @$$@$$!|\|. That sure was hot and made me feel godlike. I think the clan tag was _.-+'*[p0!$oN]*'+-._ . I was very proud of that one.

For the most tryhard nicknames, you have to skim through Turkish CS or MMO players (both have an average age of 12). 7 out of 10 have the following words in their nicknames with letters 'g' and 'k' may be replaced by 'q' for no reason:

Dark
King
Lord
Devil
Evil
Slayer
Dragon

AHAHAHAHA DURCHSICHT :D

FYI: Durchsicht means lookthrough or something like that. Sicht means sight, durch means through.

Like that "durchsicht", I used "VisionAssistantUser" for a good time. The word "VisionAssistant" comes from my whinings/BM in sc2/dota/BW. If I got ganked in NC in dota/enemy 1a2a3a4a'ed my unscouted base, I just say "nice vision assistant" or "which version of vision assistant do you use" accusing my opponent of maphacking.

Some guy yesterday had:

$xN00b_K1ll3rx$ or something like that. It was definitely 'noob killer.' Ironically, he was terrible.

There was a day9 daily (about a 2v2v2v2 BGH in Brodowar) where day[9] talked about a "CyberDarkShadowBlade" guy.
It was hilarious :D

I played the free2play Shooter Combat Arms for a year (under the name TheFinnGamer ofc),
you see so many names involving pro, sinper, ninja, etc. I'm just going to the first 20 pages of the leaderboard and picking out the worst ones:

lllllln3sty
B1mb4m1nk14
xIMMORTALx
5H0T_P3RF3CT
Gangsterdk45
-PoSSeSSioN-
And my favourite: xXx_ShAdOw_x

WannaBe[WHITE] - AFAIR, a TL user said this was official nickname of some [WHITE] clan member.

5PoolEveryGame - dude had a thread how he really 5-pooled all time on this account and won a lot.
What what the the fuck fuck? That blew my mind so much, I doubled every word in the phrase 'What the fuck' to get: 'What what the the fuck fuck my what the the fuck fucking what did the drop dropship medivac where in the what in the hell?' - Day[9]

I'm undecided on the topic of attributing ones name to a famous pro gamer. Sure you want to be like Boxer if you call yourself SlayerS_<anything>, but if you're not as awesome, you're just shaming the name!

Same with FruitPeeler. Whoever you are, you don't even play zerg, you play terran, and terribly at that.

you obviously missed the joke

it makes no sense for a fruitPEELER to play zerg

Pretty much anything with cApITaliZaTION or weird XxX[insert name here]XxX overkill, makes it hard to read, hard to pronounce, and as said, tryhard and pathetic. I'm not even sure that the underscore in my own name wasn't necessary or overkill.

First time I saw Azp. But that kid was freaking pro. but then i started seeing garbage like Tzk. To have 3 or less letters in your GT you have to be unreal.

My xbox live name is "Fatal x uK" from back when I was a juvenile playing Halo 2 - only play FIFA these days on the box so I wouldn't pay £8 to change it when I play people called iTz F1FAkINGZzx etc etc
