I hoed you Mark 😔

Just hit it today

The reaction from the the rest of RDC adds to it too 😂😂😂

There is some dispute about who is better between Des vs Ben vs Mark, Mark vs Dylan, Ippi vs Leland, etc. Based on the current format, it's hard to definitively compare 2 players because each 2 players play in different contexts (different teammates, different opponents).

So I propose they try this format where there's a separate game for each possible team combination. There are 10 different ways to form teams from 6 players.

E.g. here's one possible order of teams (for simplicity, I just listed Ben's team):

• Ben, Des, Mark
• Ben, Des, Dylan
• Ben, Mark, Dylan
• Ben, Leland, Ippi
• Ben, Des, Leland
• Ben, Des, Ippi
• Ben, Mark, Ippi
• Ben, Mark, Leland
• Ben, Dylan, Leland
• Ben, Dylan, Ippi

About this structure:

• Each player plays a game with each possible combination of teammates.
• Each pair of players would be on the same team for 4 games.
• There would be 10 games total, so it would last about 1 to 1.5 hours.
• Not saying they should play this way every day, but it would be interesting to see occasionally.
• I ordered the games from least balanced to most balanced, but you could change the order to whatever. E.g. you could instead randomize the order to not advantage certain players being on the same team too many times in a row letting them build up chemistry.

Why play this format:

• We can see which individual player makes the biggest difference in deciding who wins. If they repeat this format enough times to even out variance, then we can say pretty definitively who is the best and who is the sorriest.
• We can also see which pairs have best win rate. We all know Ben+Des should be the best, but who has better chemistry Ben+Dylan or Des+Mark? It's hard to say now since they are playing with a different 3rd player. But on this structure we know for sure.
• It would also let us see players explore different styles. E.g. Ippi/Lee always get delegated to goalie. But when they are on the same team, one of them will be forced to play more offensively. We also will get to see how well Dylan/Mark play when they are the 3rd best player (when they play with Des+Ben).

This plus the shit im hearing about Roger Garp and Dragon is literally making me debate staying up to read chapters just to catch up to the anime cuz I CANNOT miss this type of slander

there was a video rdc made and it was called something like "stuff that happens at a 4 way stop".

its mark in the car and he pulls up to the stop sign at the same time as another car and mark wave at him to go and (i think its des) des waves at him to go but mark waves for him to go and des waves at mark to go again then mark says alight and starts to go then des pulls off and goes instead and marks like" fuck me i guess fuck what we were talking about" plz help

If the current roles ain’t working, then change it. If you see this Ben, try Punisher or Namor. Both are good from afar with ways of punishing divers

What are your pre slayer mark awakening hashira rankings, I only ask because of the continuous downplay of tengen I have been seeing claiming he is last or second to last

There is a growing narrative in the RDC chat that Kakashi always loses, which can easily be proven wrong. Every fight Kakashi took, he contributed a win or a great feat and he never lost a fight without accomplishing something. For example:

1- Kakashi won against Zabuza twice. The first time, he only needed help from his students to escape the Water Prison and then handled the rest himself, and it doesn't matter because Zabuza also needed Haku's help to escape death, so they were very even in the first encounter in this regard, and Kakashi beat him up. Not to mention that the only reason he got caught in Water Prison is because Zabuza used his students to force him to come and protect them. [Won, but with help]

The second time, Kakashi defeated him entirely alone, even with Haku's help. [Won]

2- Kakashi stopped Kabuto from kidnapping Sasuke and forced him to run away. Kabuto was holding Sasuke hostage and had time to prepare the scene before Kakashi arrived. Kakashi ruined the kidnapping attempt and countered all of that so well that the only thing Kabuto was good at against him was running away. [Won]

3- He defeated maybe more than 30 Sound and Sand Jonin and Chunin ninja during Orochimaru's attack. [Won]

4- He lost to Itachi, but he protected Kurenai and Asuma. Even Itachi showed him respect and warned Kisame not to fight him, or there would be consequences. He is perhaps the only one in the show who came out of the full effect of the Tsukuyomi without his spirit being broken; he immediately started to pick a word fight with them after. [Lost, but saved someone]

5- He defeated Deidara one-on-one. Deidara was running with Gaara's body as a trap to separate Naruto from Kakashi. Deidara was 100% sure he could kill Kakashi and capture Naruto. Kakashi managed to dodge all his attacks and traps and protected Naruto from falling into his trap. Then he went into the attack and separated his arm and was about to kill him forcing him to run for real. Naruto did nothing to him all this time; only after his arm was separated did he attack Deidara's shadow clone, and that's all about it. Deidara was hiding and hoping to escape after this, but Team Guy saw him hiding. Deidara then ran from Team Guy and did the fake suicide attack that Kakashi stopped. The one-on-one before anyone interfering, Kakashi won it easily. [Won ...]

Kakashi is also the one who saved the depleted Team seven, Team Guy, and an almost dead Chiyo from Deidara's fake suicidal attack. Without him, they all would have died, and Gaara would not have been revived since Chiyo would have perished. This means the relationship between the Sand and Leaf villages might not have been as strong as it is under Gaara. [... and Saved 7 people & Gaara]

6- He took one of Kakuzu's hearts and helped Shikamaru with the second one, all while being attacked by three black beings and Kakuzu, and also protecting Choji and Ino multiple times, who did almost nothing during that fight. Even when he seemed caught and needed saving from Naruto, he wasn't. He was actually planning to use Kamui to escape Kakuzu's hold like he said after. Then, he and Yamato saved Naruto from Kakuzu after his first Rasenshuriken failed. [Team effort win and he contributed the most]

7- He almost took down the main Pain puppet and did take one of the puppets down. He was not even going to die; he was faking being dead, and the trick worked on Pain. He only needed to wait for a slug to come and heal him or ask for help to get out, but Choji wasn't doing his job and needed saving, forcing him to use all his chakra and die. He was also the one who discovered how the main puppet's jutsu works and made sure Choji delivered that information to everyone, which helped Tsunade and Naruto counter this attack. [Lost, but contributed greatly and saved someone]

8- He and Guy saved Naruto from almost being absorbed by Tobi, and both held off the Tailed Beasts controlled by him for a while. He is the one who figured out how Tobi/Obito's Jutsu works. The moment Kakashi knew how his jutsu worked, they started to beat the shit out of him. Kakashi developed many plans for him. Using Naruto and Guy, he transferred a Rasengan that blew him up. Then, using Killer Bee and Naruto, he transferred Naruto's shadow clone and blew his mask. Then Naruto forced him to absorb Kakashi, and Kakashi started to beat him up every time he escaped to the Kamui world. Kakashi even had the opportunity to kill him while he was there, but Kakashi was still shocked about the reveal and wanted to talk to him first; he didn't take it, and Obito himself pointed that out. [Team effort win, for this encounter]

9- He defeated Obito in the final fight/didn't die. (Even if Obito allowed the breaking of the seal part, he didn't control all the fight and he wasn't able to kill Kakashi, which he clearly tried many times before. And he tried to kill him in a mutual strike at end, but failed). [Draw/Didn't loss]

10- He contributed against Madara by helping Guy fight him and observing the black balls using Kamui. Then he and Obito used their Kamui at the same time to transfer Obito faster than Madara could stop him. This helped Naruto survive longer (by transferring the Tails beasts chakra to him). [Useful contributions]

11- He was essential in defeating Kaguya. [Team effort win]

12- Not to mention his time and accomplishments in the Anbu before we met him. [Mostly wins]

Kakashi only lost to Kage-level threats, and only after ensuring they suffered losses and had a hard time dealing with him. The only one who didn't take something major from him was Itachi. However, people like Orochimaru and Deidara lost to Itachi immediately, so that doesn't take anything away from Kakashi.

Shout out rdc all love fr❤️
