[Ansteorra] best of the best

[McFarland, Glenn]

Zach,

In my opinion, Steppes Warlord offers the best chance to see the best of the
best. For the reasons you outlined many of the best may not fight in a
particular
Crown but will in Steppes. Steppes is centrally located so it draws from all
parts
of the Kingdom and its reputation is such that it draws from outside the
kingdom
as well. 

Crown in some ways is a better test of will and determination than Warlord
but for 
pure skill on skill you can't beat Warlord. 

Regards,
Sir Thorkel Magnusson - Steppes Warlord IX

I have heard it said a few times that the best fighters, all fight at crown.
That if I want to see the best of the best, then that is where I should go
to watch fighting.  But how can this be true.  It seems that this would only
be the best of the best that also want to dedicate the next six months life
and their savings accounts to the dream.  Is there any other venue that
attracts the best fighters in one place for a tournament?

 

In a similar vain I find it best to be in a circle where the warriors around
you are all better then yourself.  It is truly the best place to learn and
grow your skills.  I would love to one day fight in a tourney with the best
but I don't desire to be King.  So where does one truly test ones skills
once they have reached that level if they have no desire to rule?
