Back in the days, assassins in maplestory were stereotyped for having naruto names like oOonaruto123oOo
I always liked names that were "originals" like 1 word names so i tried to make one in sc2 asap but then i realized u can have more than one name that's same x.x

Anything that refers to the consumption of pot tends to piss me off rather than make me laugh.

Was playing gears 1 annex yesterday and everyone who joined our room had a randomly generated name like limabean321. Swear the worst people play that game now just sit and lancer from spawn.

anyone with 420 or more then one x in there name piss me off aswell. Think these are the guys who blindifre 805 times with the sniper go 2-15 and post a montage on youtube so everyone thinks there pro. .

anything, with numbers in place of letters, i dont know if its try hard, but it makes me laugh, i also think anything wih xXx is pretty tryhard. that or something like Aldaris, and your a protoss player, and you have the aldaris portrait T.T
if it wasnt for mules terrans would have to 15 hatch every game.

Some people say my name is kind of tryhard. I don't think so and it certainly wasn't the intent. I think of its kind of internet-classy, a throwback to names filled with numbers. Alternates are my0wnr4pture, or myownrapture on b.net. Numbers aren't always trashy (see: Day9).

Tbh this thread isn't really 'tryhard gamertags' this thread is pretty much "bad gamertags" or "my old gamertag(s)".

The xXx gamertags or Wolf/Sniper/Slayer/etc with sHifTinG letters are not tryhard, just bad usernames that 12 year olds think are cool. I mean, do you really think all the XBL people with the username xXxSN1P3RL0RDxXx are tryhards?

SlayerS_'Boxer' is pretty try hard. How didn't I see this one mentioned? Some of them I think are kinda funny, the people with 420, 1337, or 1234 at the end are definitely at the bottom of that list.

I always liked the WoW names where it would be very spec/build specific, and a couple weeks after making that character they weren't playing that spec/build. (Shadow priest named Bubblznthings, the Holy paladin named Retforlife etc.)


Yeah WoW names where so bad, god i got tired of seeing shit like obamadin.


Obamadin made me lol.

Because you don't read threads before making assumptions..
now run into the setting sun, and suffer, but don't mess up your hair.

The worst tag I've ever seen was, DKXXXDKDKDK. I still don't know what he was getting at. It was in WoW so it could be refering Death Knights or Denmark.

The most common for me were on Counterstrike 1.6 in France
All you had was variants of tonymontana and naruto, literally one of both every game..

A lot of the Korean player names are not-try-hard-enough. Guys named after months, refreshments, and even worse, other players.
