New vs old
Just was wondering who would win. Today's duelers or past older duelers (before 2010) if they were to duel today some how. Pretty sure there is a thread for this i didn't google

I would say the newer duels, there are some pretty solid players these days, not saying the 2010 duelers and before suck they just wont be as experienced as the new.

Pm me for help or if you have any questions.
the duelers now would smash old duelers hands down, just by the fact that most of us are skilled in almost every mods, most of the old duelers probably stuck to one mod and didn't get to experience other mods or never wanted to duel in them, there are far good abd players now than back then

Well the thing really isn't about the individual skill of players. The playstyle (meta) in each mod has changed. I only know stuff about TK, so I'll take that as an example. Tk 3 years ago was very different thank TK nowadays.
The old-school style of TK (aka one hand forward 2 turnkick) would get destroyed by an easy defensive style. Mods change when people find out new/better ways to play them.
Duelers nowadays would win old-school duelers because they play the mods better.

Simple as that imho.

What beef is saying is on point. Even if Old Schoolers were more creative and thus hit a higher skill ceiling, they didn't play in the "do whatever it takes to win" meta that new duelers are familiar with. The meta heavily favors new duelers. I say that as someone who's dueled in both eras.

You get bodied by staff in duels.

Anyways, I think oldschool duelers would have a decent chance if they actually played a bit before hand. If they just came back to duel someone who has been playing frequently, they're more likely to lose.
