First off I want to say that this is my first thread, and that I made it mostly to experiment and stuff, so be nice and please tell me if it's shit.

I find it funny how extremely ''creative'' people are on the interwebs, and you see it all the time in gamertags and stuff like that. I always get cracked up good when I see try hard names like XxSn1p3r_Pr0d1gyxX and xXXElit3xGodxOfxCodXXx or Pr0xSn1p3rG0DxXx.

So what is the funniest/most tryhard gamertag you've seen?

And FYI, there is a history behind my name, so it doesent count :3 I was an age of conan fan, and I made it to troll WoW players

Oh man.

Anyone remember a while back here there was a guy called, forgive me if I'm mistaken in some capacity:

xX_sk4t3rg0h4n_Xx and he always said like, you gotta skate?

Aw man I loved that guy. He was a terrible poster.

Yeah those aren't tryhard gamertags, just little kids. If you have played Gamebattles for CoD, you'll know what tryhard gtags really are. They always choose some stupid word and then mess it up with alternate caps and x's or z's. So something like x ReFleXzz or o CluTchZz o, or AniMosiTyz v2 etc.

I'm surprised there was no mention of "Ninja" "Shadow" "Dragon" or "Killer" in your OP.

Although to be honest I don't have much room to mock the gamertags of others... Flanlord may be nice for originality in that it has yet to ever be taken in any game I've played, but it doesn't really get much for creativity... or making sense.

I wanted to swap to Fractalligator after a few Day[9] dailies, but there are just too many websites and games to change my tag on now. I am stuck.

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.)

I think xXShadowXNinjaXx was pretty up there though... I was more shocked to actually see it outside of a joke about gamers than anything... looking back I wonder if it was a joke.

i know console shooters are generally looked down upon on this site, but my god the people that play it are even more retarded. I was once in a lobby and I swear to god, there were three people with almost identical gamertags, it was like iiiSNiiiPeZZZ, iSniiipEZzzZ and iSnIpErZzZ or something lol. I don't get why people do it, do they think it looks cool?

Thank god I don't play these games you are referring to and so have no idea wtf anyone is talking about...

Are "gamertags" associated with xbox or does it mean any game handle? And why are people using "tryhard" like it's an adjective or something...

Also...

Who the hell does that? Gamers referencing classic literature huh? My TL handle does that, but my SC2 handle doesn't, and I'm sure 99.9% of people won't get the reference anyways...

It is actually the opposite of creative.. using X's and I's is probably as mainstream as you can get.

XxD4_Bullz23xX. According to you this is a work of art. To me its a 10 year old whose dad left the game out and he installed it.

My friend and I always joke about these xbox live try-hard gamertags. We'll ask them "Hey, what's with all the kisses in your name? (referring to the 'xXx') oh! are you a girl?" and then rage ensues. Cant count how many times we've used that joke. never gets old : )

I used to play Gears of war on XBL and oh my god was it clouded with tryhard names. For true inspiration look at anyone from clans like iTz, xT etc. A quick search shows the fragmovie "xT - XpLiCiT TaLeNTz" ..says it all.

i think the worst ones are always the sephiroth ones. On any wow server there's at least 4 different spellings of sephiroth, i remember sepritoh, seph, sephinroth and a few sephiroths with various accents over the vowels just on auchindoun-eu. Not enough facepalms in the world.

In L2 people used the name llllilliliiililllilillll For it's functionality when PKing people people wouldn't be able to target you using commands. But it was also a bitch for your friends to PM you haha.

  • "Dividers" ie x in "DarkXRose"
  • "Decorators" ie xXx in "xXxSPAWNxXx" (especially amusing in SC2 since no name is "taken" and you can't use the excuse that "Spawn" was unavailable)
  • Alternate caps used as decorators ie "AzNgOdKiNg"
  • Uncommon alt code characters ie "Fa†ali†y" (uncommon now at least, since nobody reads books)
  • Numbers used to represent sounds or letters ie 8 in "sk8erboi789"
  • References to darkness or satanism ie "DarkShadowLord"
  • References to Dragonball Z main characters, ie "SSJ5G0G3T4"
  • References to pop culture-ized Viking literature ie "s2Loki" (not as applicable in SC2 due to campaign hero)
  • References to FF7 main characters ie "XXS3PH1R0THXX"
  • References to race ie "PiNoYbAlLa"
  • Hints at in-jokes that are not in-jokes, ie "bobcat420"
  • References to drug use, ie "xXKushKrushXx"
  • Hints at gaming prowess, ie "elitesniper"

Use of numbers to substitute as letters within names pisses me off too, but that's not really "tryhard," I guess.

Personally I think random names involving Obama are straight up baller status.

Yea i still hate names like "DarkSoldier" or something like that, as well as the XxXxX names and l33t speak.

But what i hate most is the names that begin with "i" like iXxxx. Sooo annoying, and a lot of people use it nowadays

Steam lets you use characters that aren't part of the normal latin alphabet, and you ended up with people using the Greek rho as a p or chi as an x. Then they'd pick accented letters over regular ones and it was the funniest thing when you'd go against a team that used character maps.

my name was so classic on XBL, I used the auto name generator and it gave me "sadmushroom." Not knowing that this was a "loser's" ID, i had to play through hundreds of games with xXdArKsLaYeRXx and SSJVeGeTa look alikes teasing me for a silly id, ohhh adolescence.

also, i love how some people in CoD1 and 2 put more effort into making their IDs and clan tags then actually playing and practicing. i recall one conversation with some RL friends where i told them that people would remember them if they were really good, not if they had cool looking names and colors. they then told me that nobody wants to to remember an ugly name, and booted me out of vent..

"hey im searching for a team, but please dont respond if your team has dragon dark lord knight or defenders in the name"

and some other guy said

"oh hey im the leader of the darkdragonknightdefenders we have a teamspeak and we are some very funny guys"

The 6969 at least suggested that the name was ironic, but then he had to go and kill it?

If you have the skills to back it up, any name is fine. It's only annoying when people suck (or even if they have average skill) any they try to sound intimidating/serious.

Also, no one seems to mention how annoying the prefix, "Legit," is.

The only really, "tryhard," name I ever used was a one that my clan (the Cripples) told me I had to change it to. But to be a smartass, I made it, "ACrippledEagle," because I had just watched the episode of Scrubs where J.D. tries to jump from a couch to a counter to win a bet, and falls flat on his face.
Not that try-hard, now that I think about it

I don't know if anyone else remembers, but when the mini series Band of Brothers was popular, half the people in every FPS were named Cpt. Winters or Lt. Speirs or some other character from the show. I played MoHAA at the time so it was doubly bad since it was a WWII game already.

There was a German counter-strike player named Sniperwolf. Story:
+ Show Spoiler +
Let's just say he was considered to be one of the nerdiest guy (the heavy metal, computer-gaming and rundown type of nerdy, not the math type of nerdy) living on the planet.
In CS there is the tradition of having a round played with knifes, and telling everyone to drop their weapons before that, saying "drop or son of a b*tch", "drop or gay", or something like that. German Mouz team replaced that by saying "drop or sniperwolf" (gaining a lot of laughter of german spectators, and severe confusion of international opponents :D)


Any kind of nicknames and/or clantags containing the following: Ninja, Killer, Assassin, Black, Dragon, Night, Knight, Order, Fragger, 1337/Elite, Owner, [any name of military special forces unit], X (a highlighted one or several), special forces or any kind of national tag (such as [ger]) usually are
a) young kids
b) bad players

exeptions exist, such as German XlorD who chose his name when he was young. However, once he went pro it sticked to him, so when he grew embarassed of it and tryed to change it to "Ixi" (his nickname made from his nickname, used by fans) he was unsucessful.
When they were introduced, he made a witticism, hoping to be liked. She laughed extremely hard, hoping to be liked. Then each drove home alone, staring straight ahead, with the very same twist to their faces.

I've never really understood online names and aliases. I must prefer someones real name instead. I think it's one of the reasons gaming isn't taken very seriously. But more on topic, anything referencing drugs just makes me facepalm.

Generally anyone who takes a name from a well known established lore character or famous players.

Any variation of Inuyasha, Arthas, Illidan, Legolas or Sephiroth are not original or cool. I don't mind if people make references with their names, but c'mon try to be a little creative.

Having tags that refer directly to cars/guns have got to be the scrubbiest things I see, closely followed by the dipshit references to weed.

When you have numbers in your name at the end, i mean just think of something else.

XXXX is stupid aswell it just looks like ass overall and nobody will actually remember your nick.

Young women on MySpace sites also used to almost have the same nicks "cutie_girl", "princess88", "loveheart" etc it was pretty stupid.


I am so happy Bnet forces players to just have a goddamn name, not numbers, random letters or (URIOUFAS)==)R=A) type names

[image loading]

Kinda sure you are wrong. It's FWD cars that don't officially drift, because they are steering with the same wheels that give them any acceleration. Not only that but to "drift" in an FWD you have to e-brake. You can slip drift in an AWD car. Impreza's, Evo's, and Skylines are commonly used in drift competitions and have been for years.

But yes these kinds of names are stupid in my opinion. Especially the drug reference ones.

My other ID i use for most games when i was younger and sometimes now is ElmoOnCrack/eLMOonCRACK. Still one my favorites.

"Billy420"
"SirSmokesALot"
"TokerM420"

Kinda sure you are wrong. It's FWD cars that don't officially drift, because they are steering with the same wheels that give them any acceleration. Not only that but to "drift" in an FWD you have to e-brake. You can slip drift in an AWD car. Impreza's, Evo's, and Skylines are commonly used in drift competitions and have been for years.

But yes these kinds of names are stupid in my opinion. Especially the drug reference ones.

My friends are so creative. They're not try hard.
One of them is Sissy Boy and the other one is Johnny Deerp. It makes me laugh so much.

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, 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.

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.

I think xXShadowXNinjaXx was pretty up there though... I was more shocked to actually see it outside of a joke about gamers than anything... looking back I wonder if it was a joke.



There were some really cool WoW nick names though, such as Benafflock, Oprahwindfury, Harrrydotter or a tauren called Hasselhoof.

What is so special about 420?

MyLittlePwny

This is actually kinda funny when you see it for the first time.


How about pointing out some really tryhard or bad progamer names?
As a german I am kinda ashamed to have out players named DarKFoRcE or NarutO. I can understand this kinda thing if you are korean, but as an english speaker? Really?

Names I remember from WoW (some even were my RL friends):

GagsTheMan
JonnyTwoHats
MageHunter (was a rogue in vanilla I pvp'ed with)
OldGreg
ManKiller
InFlame
Arthas ... dayamn... most tryhard name in WoW, I guess
((one kindda funny though, was my troll friend going into blizz's rules where it clearly says, you cannot call yourself stuff like Neo2000 ... Then he names his character Neototusind (Neo2000 spelled out in danish... Every time he needed a name he went into the threat about banned named. Also made PovlPimp, Nuclearatron and simular names))

I never really loved those names, where you just smack words (or even sentences) together to form a name... And yeah, Killer, Shadow, Dark, Satan, Ninja and random xXx shouldn't even be allowed to have in your nick...

As mentioned earlier in the thread...

IMMVP and TheBestfOu are pretty damn tryhards

On Topic:

The names which annoy me, are stuff like Own5u, Pwn3er, and other dumb 1337-speak influenced names that seem like they're made by 13 year olds trying to look threatening :p

Ended up playing TF2 the other day with a guy called:

Fagdolf Hitler


I sometimes wonder what point people are trying to make with their IDs.

Personal favourites include fellow TLer SirGling.


Edit: Just remembered, a couple of years ago, an engineer I worked with asked for my Steam details so he could add me as a friend. I thought, "He's a lovely guy, a bit quiet, but genuinely helpful and always friendly." A few days go by, I completely forget about the whole thing until I'm dug into a game of Day of Defeat (you know when you get really into a game and forget everything else):

in wc3 there were alot "Demonhunter666" or "blademaster420" games, anything with 420 in the name usually pretty bad. or just numbers like "300" etc. all bad players.

My brother and I use Fanglord and XtremeKnight1, respectively.

Somewhat less OT, is it just an Australian/New Zealand thing to include your nationality in your gamer tag? I see an awful lot of cringe-worthy "AuzziSniper" variants.

killer instinct was the first tournament i won. and some terrible gaming service along time ago said i had to have number and a capital in my username. Then later had you enter a game name, but didnt realize it as they werent clear, kind of a play on the whole have a number stuff in your password, but epic fail. so i became KiF1rE... the 1 is also kind of a reference back to my FPS days. i came up with this name back when i was like 12 and just stuck with it.

Somewhat less OT, is it just an Australian/New Zealand thing to include your nationality in your gamer tag? I see an awful lot of cringe-worthy "AuzziSniper" variants.

I remember 10 years ago when I played age of empires UMS games online, and leet was 100% standard, so no one even questioned it. Nowadays when I see it, I generally assume that the person is under 15 and just adapted it from other people. I don't think it's a matter of people thinking it looks super gosu awesome epic, it's just what they're used to. Looking back, the names were ridiculous though. I'm glad BNet 2.0 IDs are limited to letters.

I don't find an issue with all of the weed references found in MOST gamertags (maybe it's because I myself am I smoker). It's only when someone's purposely trying to be cool and only smokes because they think it's cool that it makes me mad.
Like, I have friends who have weed references in their name, and it ends there. I'm fine with that.
If I see someone who's name is xXx42oiTzW33dBluntK1iLl3rxXx and their motto, bio, location, and name are all just weed jokes that I'm annoyed. There's NO WAY that that person has the motor skills to play video games AND smokes enough to justify all of that shit.

Shut up and stop ruining it for the rest of us.

I'd say it's all the flanges that try and pick cool 'neo' sounding akas. This is especially common on brood war, where guys get motivated make a smurf aka with a new fancy sounding name thinking it will make some sort of difference.
Names I'm referring to are like:
BlackSummer
RedSwan
AloneIWeep

Just seriously, stop with this bullshit. It's incredibly annoying and makes you seem like an angsty 16 year old.

Get over yourselves people they are just screen names no one cares. I blame this thread on Tastosis. They are always harping on having these so called fantastic screen names and ragging on korean names. Artosis sounds like some sort of cold or virus you get in the winter time and tasteless sounds fresh out of the mind of a bad ass 13 year old. Aside from the "XXXs1nperxzxzx" type names they are all about the same, may as well be numbers.

Names like these make me happy that I quit Call of Duty. At least in this community names like that are frowned upon as opposed to seen as being "pro."

Then again "pro" CoD and professional StarCraft are so different it shouldn't be that surprising haha.

This isn't a try hard name, but one of the funniest names I ever saw was JoeMama.

Now, I'm sure that somebody out there is saying, that's not funny at all. But when I played him I did a super cheesy build, and therefore I all-ined JoeMama.

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.

i ALWAYS come across the name "sickshots" spelled with varying degrees of capitals or purposeful misspelling no matter what game I play.

I play LoL, there's someone with that name playing as Ashe.
I play WoW, I see a hunter with that name.
I play SC2, and I come across a "Sickxshotz"
And none of them are ever mannered.

I'm beginning to wonder if it's the same person.

Any name with x used as a connection between two words, or used at the ends of the real name xxx___xxx

Not to bash on optikzero, but the way it's stylized with capitals almost seemed tryhard. :x

Any name that brings complete disrespect to clans (LiquidRootEg).

Any name with numbers at the end, beginning, or somewhere in there for 1337speak.

Names with Pinoy, Latino, Azn, BR, etc. crammed in the handle is an abomination.

And there is a plethora of gamer handles in each of those categories...

There was a German counter-strike player named Sniperwolf. Story:
+ Show Spoiler +
Let's just say he was considered to be one of the nerdiest guy (the heavy metal, computer-gaming and rundown type of nerdy, not the math type of nerdy) living on the planet.
In CS there is the tradition of having a round played with knifes, and telling everyone to drop their weapons before that, saying "drop or son of a b*tch", "drop or gay", or something like that. German Mouz team replaced that by saying "drop or sniperwolf" (gaining a lot of laughter of german spectators, and severe confusion of international opponents :D)


Any kind of nicknames and/or clantags containing the following: Ninja, Killer, Assassin, Black, Dragon, Night, Knight, Order, Fragger, 1337/Elite, Owner, [any name of military special forces unit], X (a highlighted one or several), special forces or any kind of national tag (such as [ger]) usually are
a) young kids
b) bad players

exeptions exist, such as German XlorD who chose his name when he was young. However, once he went pro it sticked to him, so when he grew embarassed of it and tryed to change it to "Ixi" (his nickname made from his nickname, used by fans) he was unsucessful.


I have the most tryhard names
Was WeaponXAssassin on PSN then ChaoticBlack here and on SC2 and later on PSN and now am Screwby on SC2.

Pretty much anything that isn't a name. Nouns, Verbs, or anything remotely descriptive are just fairly annoying. For example, Artosis is a good tag, tasteless... not so much (though it's far, far, far, far, from the worst.)

I knew a guy who was upset when he finally got xbox live and found out the tag "Sniper" was taken.. that's what he used on LAN's.. I facepalmed a little.
The random name generator when you create a new account on xbox live is awesome, I lapsed my actual account because I wasn't going to be in the country for a year, but activated a free trial month to play halo reach with my friends.. It gave me Furtiveleek07 which I thought was so ridiculous I kept it.
It was a lot worse during Halo 2 when Xbox live first really took off, 1337spartansniper masterchief1337 etc Not sure if it's improved recently, haven't really played xbox live much since Halo 3 turned out to be totally wank.

Haven't played against anyone on SC on ladder whose name made me laugh / facepalm yet. Still time I guess.

You gotta admit, Kitty was kinda adorable though.

EDIT: Jesus I just remembered AngelGirlPrime...the hell man. These are less tryhard though and more plain weird.

uhhh does it count if someone has the same name as a pro player or anyone else in that matter? Because it counts as them being tryhard to be that player?

Aside from the "XXXs1nperxzxzx" type names they are all about the same, may as well be numbers.

So... you start out saying that people should not care about online IDs, but then you start hating on artosis and tasteless because of their IDs? -.-

I can't believe no one has said this yet (maybe I missed it?). People with "MLG" in their name ex: (MLGxXxPrOxXxSnIpEzxXx) or clan tag (ex: [MLG] xXxQwIcKxXxScOpEzFtWxXx) rocking a .83 kill/death ratio.

One that sticks out to me that i've seen is IgOt2MaNyH8rS or something like that.

Oh god I hate those people. There are like 20 TLO's on Europe server, I have played 2v2 against probably 3 different mTwDimaga in diamond league 2v2 with no 1v1s played, and I always get just as pissed every time I see it.
My nick is totally worthy of all question as well. Picked it cause I found it somewhere in wikipedia, changed it a little bit and thought it sounded cool. I think I just clicked away and found some demon in some religion called Euronymous.

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


In WoW every ran around with a name stolen from some odd fantasy Book like Aedasle Andalea, Areaya, Aereaie, etc..

found that incredibly boring.

A friend of mine when we were young had no money and the 60€ for xblox live were really much and he names his account:

MonsterHalo001

He wanted to name it "Halo" but that was already taken and then xbox Suggested Monster and 001 as addon and he took both xD

A nickname says a lot about a person.

I usually don't even read nicknames with xx or whatever symbols involved. I like cool names, not long though.

Btw, the funniest ones I know, I invented with my friend while we played Warhammer MMoRPG: + Show Spoiler +
Phavensussy / Pairyhussy
- two elven huntresses (troll alts), don't remember the class names properly.

On a serious note - my main was Rottenkross Blighteye (chosen) and he had, if I remember correctly, Rinai Bloodmist (disciple of khaine), besides that he had an Ork (choppa) alt + Show Spoiler +
Buttfukka
. With my alt Dissartabald Baldassard (marauder), we had a proper Kommandos team to decimate enemy ranks.

Great laughs with that game, played only month though, got bored to death

P.S. I don't consider MMoRPG nicknames as real/proper ones, since I use them individually for every character and every game. So my first statements don't really relate to that.

On my WOW free trial I was KevinGarnet. Felt like it fit in well with the archaic names of old everyone in that game used.

My PTR acct. name (and BW name) is IMBrisk, and on GOM I was GrackofGeese420. I got Artosis and John to rage a little bit in the old days when they used to read user questions.

Ahh, the memories.

"SirSmokesALot"
"TokerM420"

Kinda sure you are wrong. It's FWD cars that don't officially drift, because they are steering with the same wheels that give them any acceleration. Not only that but to "drift" in an FWD you have to e-brake. You can slip drift in an AWD car. Impreza's, Evo's, and Skylines are commonly used in drift competitions and have been for years.

But yes these kinds of names are stupid in my opinion. Especially the drug reference ones.


=[


I dunno GTR, your's is different. You like just have 3 letters, it's at least somewhat mysterious, or ambiguous. At least you aren't SkylineGTRDrift4201337... That's more what I'm referring to

A friend of mine is called proxiSniper. I thought that was pretty wankerish, but it turns out proxi is the clan tag, and Sniper is his handle. They just end up douchebagish together.

SlayerS`BoneR did the job too.

XBL gamer tags prove the immaturity of the playerbase...watch your younger brother playing 360 Black Ops and just look at the games if you ever want proof. PS3 is better but not immune. F2P MMORPGs are terrible for it too.

my favorite is PoopFeast420. i love it when they take his questions on the GSL stream. artosis can never say his name without laughing, and it's just so ridiculous.

and i've stomped egIdra in teamgames soooooo many times. honestly, who is gonna think you're really Idra, with no 1v1 games played and you're like silver/gold in everything else.

The worst imo are names copied off pros or slightly modified versions, so many BoxeR's and TLO's etc. on bnet
Otherwise some of the worst Ive seen involve xXx or xX on either side of the name, u see that and its pretty much given that the names gonna be terrible.
Also irritating are the people whose names are like DayJ or thenumberj (I have seen both of these) and anything else based on some joke day9 or some other well known member of the community made.

God I remember one of my first CS handles as a kid was xXDeathsHunterXx

ahahaha to be 13 again... I used to think knowing spanish was super cool, and would translate lame ass names into spanish because it meant I was a mega badass. I also remember being in a D2X pvp clan that went by the tag "DarkWolves" Lolllllllll...

It's okay though. 24 years old and still using handles like ZombiesOMG, I guess I just don't take the name thing seriously.

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

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.

5PoolEveryGame - dude had a thread how he really 5-pooled all time on this account and won a lot.

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

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.

how do you 5 pool? Do you start off by killing one of your drones?

i like the XXXXXXXX420 type names.. like my name was taken but not wit 420 after it. or the clever 024 discreet stoner who thinks we don't know it's 420 backwards =)

A while back when I took counter strike way too seriously, I frequently got trolled by an auto-sniper camping dipshit who went by a nickname which roughly translated into "the dreadful yeti". I tried to get him banned several times but no one seemed to listen. Needless to say it was rough patch in my life.

Oh wait, that's just not true. It was the other way around. Guess I was always a baller.

Anyone that has a floating sperm in their name ~ or alternating caps. Luckily floating ~ isn't allowed in SC2 names, but that sure doesn't stop people from using it on forums~~!

Scanning my ladder:

FoOoYoOoYoO - no explanation necessary
KillaMagilla - rhymes are awesome!
June - Poor guy wishes he was July
ShankeR - This isn't COD
redpanda8 - All lowercase, arbitrary use of the number 8 (were there 7 other redpandas? doubtful)

I would say my orginal names from back in pre-steam CS days were kinda silly.

KK_Killer...

Then I named my self after someone who coached me in CS he was Dblbeanysnake. so i obviously went with Dblbeanysnake2....

Wc3: Not so bad I guess - Demon[of]Ice, was a clan ever memeber had to be Demon[of]W/E

And since WoW onward it's been "Phtes", Doesn't look try hard and tbh I still forget how I came up with it.

I like my new name I got in the beta, but as said before XBL gamertags are always hilarious to read, trying to read past 12 year olds' "l33tsp34k" takes me some time, the alternating caps and X's people use to try and make their worn out names like assassin, and ninja look original, is the problem imo

The worst are any involving "Sephiroth" or any variation thereof IMO.

Pretty funny story on the topic: my sister tried a few games of the original Call of Duty on PC and chose "x-sniper-baby-x" as her tag. Obvious this could be changed at any point, but my dad was far too lazy to ever bother and ended up just using the same name whenever he played, leading to a lot of chat-up attempts. Pretty funny.

More funny however, is when he got into a conversation about CoD at work with a coworker who mentioned that his nephew played a lot. The coworker asked what name my dad used so he could tell his nephew to keep an eye out for my dad. Not thinking, he told them he went by "x-sniper-baby-x".

I believe it ended in them singing "sniper baby, hurry down the chimney to me." to him, to the tune of the Christmas song.

Sometimes people comment on the "pro" in my nick, but as it turns out, it's just a contraction of my first and last name so the pro is "accidental" and I hadn't even considered the "double meaning" before I started playing SC...

Is my name tryhard? I'm into this genre of music described mainly as "freeform". So I took the name Freeform for a while. Then I thought it would be ingenious to replace the Free with a 3. So I don't think it's quite the same as gr8sk8r or similar ilk.
I'm even considering a contraction to a simple 3F. Triple-Eff if you like.

My old nick was ExDeath, and most people probably thought I was some tryhard or some goth kid, but actually I just really liked FFV.

ricerock3t
were some of my friend's

i remember making the ID 'omegaknight', 'skirmisher'

my email was, gundam_zero99

...lmao

ok, try-hard-wise, i don't kno......
naww i still make those LOL

i saw some pretty funny ids on sc2
CryMeAReaver
in fact i'm sure it's some of you guys using those id's haha

to be a little nicer, it's not too different than actually trolling.

just who wants to die to or get trashtalked by (bad example) HeAdSh0Tz4U
exactly. i'd be pretty choked myself if i was getting my ass handed by him

contrary to that, koreans don't really care what they're named
after a monitor, after a drink, after a unit.... who cares!

Every name that has the words man, boy, girl, woman, lady, Miss, Mister ( any variation), any female anime character name when the person is a guy IRL
If you're mad that someone else is brazenly trumpeting their beliefs with ignorance, perhaps you should be mad that you are doing it too.

Anything with numbers in pretty much, you have a chance on the internet to come up with whatever name you want that you think would be cool but you chose "john629". What. The. Hell.

He made some hellions, saw I had walled off, and left the game. I nodded.

I remember many people in Dota used to pick "Aomine Daiki" as a nickname in reference to Miracle, at one point the best EU player.

1997 was a more innocent time, and at least I've never used an X.

Sometimes people comment on the "pro" in my nick, but as it turns out, it's just a contraction of my first and last name so the pro is "accidental" and I hadn't even considered the "double meaning" before I started playing SC...

Tryhard? Back in Wings of Liberty progamers created "barcode" names III|||II||II and shit so noone could know who they were and check their profiles or add them.
Seemed super tryhard and borderline retarded to me.
