Ubisoft is so bad that they're getting shade thrown at them from threads in totally unrelated video games.
Electronic Arts is so bad that they've effectively become a meme for blatant, soulless cash-grabs.

On-topic, how long has Skolldir sat at the top of the list now?

I'm only awful as a reaction; small comfort, but it keeps me going.

But Skoll sitting there actually means next to nothing as it's based on most played of all time rather than season. A more accurate board would probably show lots of Rae/Lonestar/Smiles/Snork up there.

Today marks the 22nd consecutive week since the 25th of May this year Skølldir sits at the top of the list. Lonestar broke the string of Skølldir dominance for 1 week otherwise, excluding this exception, you can add another 18 weeks on top meaning Skølldir has been at the top for every week save 1-2 weeks the entire year. Keep in mind in 2017, Skølldir was only at the top for 1 week and in 2016 it was 13 weeks.

People can say these lists mean nothing but they can also choose not to comment either. I don't mind the criticism but if they want Ronimo to better represent player trends with 'Nauts such as Raelynn, Lonestar, Smiles, and Snork then they can ask for a reset.

However I notice few things have changed in the mentality of people throughout the years. Instead of asking who should be at the top because most played is misrepresented ask why you won't play those at the lower end? Are you really one of those Max Focus mains who dominates everyone else? Of course you are not - you don't exist. If you buck the trend and defy the expectations of the metagame, premade groups, and every guide available to be competitive with top-tier players, then it'll cascade into general strategies for other players to follow otherwise people will play safe to what works and continue to stay the course until a change occurs to buff/nerf their favourites to force a change by necessity not by preference. The fact is Froggy G and Skølldir have very similar playstyles and were designed to reward pug mentality. I have no doubt in a constructed 3v3 they would falter to organised plays but then this comes down to player not 'Naut.

Niko has been one of my staunchest critics of this entire thread because he moved this thread from where it started but you can go look back at his own words on this thread and find the reply where I matched his Leon dominance to the exact weeks they occured to validate this list has 'some' legitimacy.

You want to test how legitimate my list would really be I challenge the playerbase to go play an entire season without touching Froggy G or Skølldir or Lonestar or anyone who has maintained a safe curve for when things change. Instead of conforming to change why not be the change you so want to see here?

Let's see some Derpl mains - after all he's famously pathetic on these lists and the one time he wasn't the Froggy G/Skølldir mains were complaining. Same with Voltar. I wonder who they were...

bet you want some witty comment on strange man-animal hybrids and people nicking your horse well don't worry I neighver forget subtle correlation to other game releases!

...

Just don't make them Buffalo* extinct. Again.

Wow Deadlift you were 2 weeks away from being Chrono Legionnaire'd.

I only just saw what you posted like a month ago;
since Ronimo made the favourite naut "all-time since launch of new servers" it's very hard to actually change it, since if you played 600 games of a naut since then, you need to play another naut for 601 games. So while this thread outlines how much people play skolldir, it doesn't say much about recent trends, which is a shame. And Ronimo doesn't seem to have an interest in fixing this.
