Yup.
These lists are nothing more than popularity contests. There are plenty of people on lesser "known" guilds that are far better players than any of these listed. Teamplay wise (gvg) the top ranked guilds may play better as a team, that doesn't mean they have better individual players. And most players don't know squat about the metagame enough, or know about map tactics enough, to recognize "good" players, only ladder position. And ladder position for the most part is meaningless. I won't name names, but I know of one guild that blew into the top-50 by simply doing necro spike - and once they started running into good teams that carry one simple spell (cry of frustration anyone?) they got creamed repeatedly and fell apart.
They think of themselves as "good" players - yet they simply mastered following a countdown spike. Mashing a couple of spells, and mass heal parties isn't "skill". They exploited a particular damage spike and that's all.
So either this thread is a shameless effort to smooch some butt, or promote friends. I'm not going to do either.
