Shoulda seen Flint, Hunter, Diode, Gruv, or Graves back in the day. Get any two ultra-ratings in a pub and it was literally a 1900sr. Worse yet, back then Apollo Sec was auto activated after a certain sr threshold (and team criteria for playing vet). So if you tried to make a vet or nm easy co, and got two of said players on top of 6 "normal rating" others it would pretty much default to apollo every time. This was dually hilarious because no one knew how to play it, and it was highly unfinished.

I'm pretty sure Gruvious was the very reason the cap was added, Peera once said he managed to get 3000 (or higher) rating, by consistently going mobrecon with very low hits. The BS high rating did cause some equally funny ratings loss. I lost 16 rating in a pub (from about 2300) after only 1 hit, from Erebos no less, while playing as MM.
