It's an interesting topic to bring up, I agree with the sentiment that more multiplayer legends are due (along with MMA, artists, modmaking, etc)

It is an important statement, but I don't necessarily find it to be very... true? The youngest legend prior to my inclusion I think was Static, who registered in 2014 and received it from very specific circumstances. If we exclude him, the most recent legends are from like 2012 or older. I don't feel as though this is a problem with multiplayer specifically but just a problem with the legend system as a whole which is now hopefully being rectified. I'm not exactly young myself, I registered 11 years ago. There have been legends historically who received it like 4 years or less after registering

However, I feel like to "qualify" as a legend, people have to generally like you. That isn't and shouldn't be true at all. Kanye West is a legend in music. Are you going to tell me Kanye was a bad artist? (we aren't talking about recent music...) The qualifications for recognition confuse me quite a bit. If the reason they aren't a legend is XYZ, is there any point in time when it could be something separate, maybe? So that those who have been funding this fuckass economy can get some recognition for how much time they spent clicking balls against someone else?
This point confuses me though, I feel as though legends are intended to be for the community (their idols, who they look up to and resonate with) and so those that aren't "generally liked" I find would be odd inclusions that would surely upset more people than would be made happy. Replaymakers are playing by the exact same rules as comp players, it's not anyone's fault that the comp environment typically leads to toxcitiy/scamming and the like which can make it more difficult to justify, though there ARE some comp players that have been missed
I encourage you to write nominations about those you feel deserve it pretty please ^_^
