Fatality is full of himself since about 2 years ago.

He was pretty average at Quake1 and I remember beating him a lot of time on the Q3 demo (got a few screenshots from the last tight games)

I was playing about 5 hrs in a row everynight, with a bunch of spectators in queue. After his defeats, he always waited for another 30 minutes to try me again and again... for about 5-6 weeks. From the first to the last week, he went from 20-2 to 5-3 scores. He never beat me but I can tell you this guy really did put the time and effort to analyze and work on his gaming. (at that time, I remember only two people beating me by 2-3 frags [on 300+ guys], but they were anynomous) - The game was fresh and new.

I was not surprised he became pretty much the best player in Q3 then on CPL, etc... you can't go wrong if you have skills and play 8 hours a day. The final version of Q3 sucked bad though, and most good players did not really play it to have fun.

Anyway, I prefered a low profile guy like Gemini... or even Thresh that was way cool. They kicked ass both in 1on1 and teamplay.
