idk if this is outdated or not, i literally took it from the legend subforum "Introduction" post, but assuming that it isnt, the truth is that literally none of these people care about the community in any palpable way. they just want to make more toricoins. these people are in no way fit to be role models either, as was already discussed in this thread. im down to see shmevin as legend tho, as everyone else has said too, its just that noone else fits this criteria whatsoever really
None of the people that I've named dropped in this thread have been the flavor of the month. As noted in my initial post, it shouldn't be given out like candy. However, again, everyone I've named-dropped has been at the top for a long time. Whether you like them or not, that is the truth. These are players that the majority of the community would see in an event bracket or CL lineup and audibly sigh. That's cool.
I do agree that a legend should be a role model. And I can't say for certain that they don't care abt the community, that's an unjust statement. But as a matter of fact, yes, Shmevin should be a legend. But the other 3 I mentioned should be given their chance at immortalization, some more than others, ofc. It doesn't have to be through the legend pathway; just something. I'd like to mention three other names, but this isn't a glaze post; the names are for others to decide.

Shit, even that's fine DD. achievements can be paired with their bad actions, so at least it's not ignored like it never happened

they give legend to replaymakers that innovate
u still havent told me what anyone has done that diamond cant do
but sure let's participate in a discussion about who can use movememory better

this is a lot more reasonable to me, some kind of unique forum flair or ingame title could be cool, like when u click on staff ingame they have the lil badge in the user profile popout window. could do some stuff with that. however that seems highly unlikely considering the only person actually developing the game quit, so we'd probably have to stick to some kinda forum flair instead. something that isn't just a usertitle at least since you can just get a custom one if you pay anyway, something separate would be ideal. i just think the title of legend is too far, gives it a lot more weight that i personally dont think they deserve to have

Play lenshu like you
Make More than 3k USD off duels
Make people play this game again
Show up.
Idk your point skizz, you talk about movememory as if that makes the difference. MM wont put you above 10kk, might not even be 1kk. I've seen players who use mm because they don't wanna waste time goofing up an opener by accident. That's why you get blown away in the first 2 frames by most anyways

I still think 2 of them deserve legend status, but that's another topic.
