Bakedchicken one of the early speed clear build theorycrafters with many level 100's in the early days. Many people, including streamers, styled their play after him.
I think a fun historical mention could go out to two individuals. ProjectPT and bakedchicken. ProjectPT was essentially the antithesis of what the current game has become. He was an advocate for slow methodical gameplay. He hated the idea of having to blast fast and often set out to prove you don't have to zoom. He pushed for people playing solo self found before this was even a thing in the game. He was also known for being highly critical and highly controversial with his very vocal takes, often calling the devs out for making - in his eyes- dumb choices. Bakedchicken is almost the exact opposite, the super grinder blaster of shield charge coc discharge or vaal spark fame. Blasting his way to level 100 by just going fast back when that was actually a challenge. Chancing headhunters and corrupting them, not even blinking an eye at the bricks. But most importantly, his very crude and degenerate gamer style humour was a blast.
TBF POMs economy content probably did a lot of good for those capable of taking advantage of it, so I dont count him as 100% infamous, even if the 1% view him that way. He was pretty controversial as a builder, though, I suppose, and definitely didnt make a name for himself as a player (the topic of the series).
I'd say ProjectPT is one of the most legendary infamous players and he is the inventor of SSF, the truest ethical gamer of all time. Also shout out to ZenocideGenius and ZiggyD for doing the first big PoE Podcast ever, State of Exile
@@1Regards Fuck man, the dude who did HC Atziri (wasn't it world first at the time?) alongside wasn't it Zeno? The fellow Norwegian. I swear he had kind of a goofy name as well? He now just sometimes streams Melee. I think he played a support build, and died on trios. Also, Havoc man..
I only play true ethical SSF Hardcore. I delete every meta unique i find as it is unethical to keep it. When my character dies, I delete every item in every stash tab as it is not true ethical SSF hardcore otherwise. I Vorici brick every 6 link i land as it is unrealistic to ever 6 link an item in true ethical SSF hardcore. I skip Labyrinth because ascendancy classes are unethical powerhouses. Every time a vaal orb drops, i immediately use it on a randomly equipped piece of gear to increase the challenge. I've had global and trade chat disabled since i got my beta invite in 0.9.2d in merveil fireball optimization curse duration patch, because player interaction gave too much advantage. I've send 84 emails to GGG's accord over the years asking for unlimited ignore players space so i can make sure that nobody talks to me when i am in town. I read and listen to every lore stone, notes, books to fully immerse myself into the true ethical SSF hardcore experience. Every time i go into this General and read the words meta, trading, blade flurry, clear speed, headhunter, so on and so on, i make sure i thrust my vibrating dildo one to three times to punish myself accordingly protecting my TESSFHC experience. I've stolen at least a dozen credit cards from my parents to pay for the 3250 normal stash tabs to show my support for GGG and the true hardcore game they developed. It deeply saddens me that PT was the only one that spoke the truth. Why do you self proclaimed SSF Hardcore even try to pretend that you are truly SSF hardcore? You make me fucking SICK!.
Zizaran and Esoro for building upon the visualization of the build guide videos. Jungroan/Rue/CaptainLance for actual build making imExile , havoc , steelmage as honorable mentions for racing/streaming
I don't know where he ranks on the "famous"players tier list, but havoc did a great job putting together a fun racing community with regular events. Not only did he have community members racing, but he also had members doing play-by-play and color commentary. Fun stuff, and one of the few times I enjoyed watching other people streaming a game over actually playing.
Empyrian and his group for doing the craziest early league farms, and making some crazy "test/fun" characters as end league project, or other end league projects. Also Zizaran of course, i guess you mentioned him kinda but needs more recognition. Other mentions: Neversink (most used tool for PoE by far i would say), demigodlol, quin69 zdps buildmaker on hc.
This is a nice change of pace and we truly need to honor the legends that kickstarted the PoE community. As for who should be in the next episode, Pohx is natural fit for it and maybe Zenocidegenius(if i have his name correctly) who played it alot years ago and i followed him a long time. And of course Neversink deserves a place as well, our loot filter god.
Love the idea of this series, just so many good people to list. Demi, pathofmatth, ziz, mbx, tarke, sirgog, belton, grimro, ghazzy, empy, donthecrown, kittencatnoodle, imexile, steel, quin, raiz, cutedog, ziggy, shitstainsteeve, nugi, havoc, tyty, mathill, and the list goes on. Also love the shoutout to long gone people who have paved the way for us, EE made his guides right around when i started the game and is why my very first league i got through red maps with a bad build, really got into the game, and have continued to play since as my favorite game
Great list but missing two key people: The entire reason we even got temporary leagues was because *Kripparian* mentioned the idea to Chris Wilson. *Hellmannn* was a famous speed runner when GGG used to have HC races to award players with uniques years before tytykiller.
@@MichaelPohoreski Pretty sure Ladder reset was always a thing. Idea gotten from Diablo 2 obviously. Do you mean have content specific to each ladder season, or "league's" as they're called? The idea Kripp gave them, as mentioned in the video, wasn't League's. But it was to release larger content updates "expansion league's", on somewhat of a schedule, than release them at a random point in the year when they're done.
Great video! So nice that you mentioned Engineering Eternity, he deserves all the credit. The quality of his old build guide videos are unmached to this day. There are many obvious choices for future videos, but i think the rarely mentioned Tarke Cat would be an interesting choice for the next one. He wasn't your typical content creator, had a great impact on the community & almost got hired by GGG :)
@@TalkativeTri I feel like you should have added the 'Part 1' in the title. I know you said it in the end. But its common at this point for people to skip the last bit of the video. Would make people exited for future episode & just better clarification
Imexile - I mean, Ben rocks, but Nick got to an unbelievable level really fast. Also, presenting E^2 requires a follow up with Karvarousku. They were in the middle of an Atlas-series before GGG remade it and they threw in the towel.
I mean, most people would count Karv as one of the genius level builders before he moved on, but I think the topic of this series is about accomplished players. I do recall him having some accomplishments in racing as well, but I think he is MOSTLY known as a builder.
Cutedog_/GeneralTsos needs to be mentioned. After his rise from the tough streets of Chicago, nowadays he has the most ethical strats and new player friendly streams that deserve to be praised by the PoE community. His findings in 3.23 proving the equity hypothesis to be true are a testament to his dedication to the game.
Id love to see the ladies get more credit, we need more women gamers, and lauding them is a great way to make new ones feel welcome. I really appreciate the FC podcast (havent been keeping up lately - generally falling off on podcasts, but hoping its still going). I think Lily has some racing accomplishments to list, and while Lara was a great personality and really knew the game, Im struggling to list her player accomplishments, tbh (but perhaps Im just not super familiar with her).
Ghudda, the man who created an unkillable HC character using a "Cast on Death" spell chain that would crash the server, resulting in a rollback to "resurrect" the character. He reported it to GGG, but still got banned for the rest of that league. And that's just ONE of many game breaking bugs and innovations he created over the years.
My lineup guess for Pt2 would be: Mathil, Ziggy, ProjectPT, Lifting and since we're already at the time of loot filters, probably Mr. Filterblade OR Mr. PoB, as tools people should definitely not be forgotten in the chain of famous players.
Your best video ever. Reliving Krip's era and impact was fantastic. EE's guides were fantastic. Tie23he was proof that perfect practice makes perfect. Can't wait to see the rest of this series. Keeping it positive/wholesome is the way to go for sure!
Kinda sad not seeing Ziggy in the first part, but I'm sure there's more parts to come! (Also don't forget Tarkee for his podcast in a few recent years)
Mathil so big he has an effect named after him. Ziz, jousis, neversink and kittencatnoodle are must haves in my eyes. Have learned tons from Demi and path of math though they fall more onto the infamous sides of history.
@@obitum HAHA. Yeah, that was the meme back inthe day. People would literally watch a Mathil video, see what unique's he's using, and buy as many from the market as they could. Knowing all the items were about to 4-5x on the market.
I think Aila deserves a mention in part 2, dude showed up out of nowhere and won consecutive SSF HC level 100 races for a year straight with some of the most creative builds I've ever seen
Lovely content buddy! Hope to see Ziggy, Mathil (most respected streamer in POE), Lighty, Ziz, Tarkecat (where the hell is he now?), Jousis, Cutedog, Path of matt, MTXtreme, Path of Exile builds channel was also one of the first build guide maker (no idead who runs it though) and few others i cant recall their names... One name you should never mention is FastAF.. he's fake, so many fake videos he's made... Kiitencatnoodle deserves a place too.
Many more notable players. Some of the top of my head - Charan (one of the biggest supporters), Havoc (first level 100, one of the best racers), Shitstain Steve/Turdtwister (the madlad), Zizaran (community), Kittencatnoodle (lore expert), TalkativeTri (the shill/most positive human), etc. etc.
Great video! My first endgame league was Ancestor so I'm quite new in the grand scheme of things. But I love learning the history of the game, Thank you!
Cutedog_ and DClara1 are the two streamers I used to watch, so many memories of blasting maps while their stream would play in the back ground. Cutedog and Ziggy D doing commentary for the China Vs Rest of the World race was so good, "He is playing 4d underwater backgammon right now"...
You better cover GCP man lol, he was the first to discover the gem recipe and kept it secret for months, he was probably the richest player for a very long time.
Started playing because of Kripparian and the Molten Balls Cyclone Berzerker was the first build guide I followed which was done by Engineering Eternity.
A long while ago, there was a player named Ventor (I believe it was) that hid the interaction between scouring and "prefixes/suffixes cannot be changed." At the time, this was a big deal. He was accused of RMT and so on. To me, he was quite infamous.
I think Kitten Cat Noodle definitely deserves a mention for all the lore. jousis for the memes empy for the insane group play havoc for trying to get more people into racing and being a great racer himself. belton, who's not the man we wanted but the man we needed in the tft war, and an insane crafter with great crafting videos. (who funnily doesn't use pob.) hawg and darthmtx, the new guys
I want to bring up an old name: Eirikeiken I know him as the first person I saw making MS Paint meme builds, and the guy that got keeps getting his Wormblaster build hotfixed by GGG lol
I cant believe he play one build for decade, so he even create a website only for one build. That crazy. Also who plays poe know how GGG can nerf to the ground any build. And his build never was overpowerd but still survived.
no way theres no pohx in this video :D mathil and quin lol so strange maybe he has part 2 coming I decided to not delete my comment because I was stupid enough to comment before finishing, so this one is on me
@@hmp01 And ProjectPT, PathofMathh who told f to GGG. But ProjectPT was not banned for it, he played WoW for a year or so and after it came back to poe, created private league on HC with all options on (yeah, even banned stash) and played it with 50 viewers Also do you remember the legend Moldran?
EE was one of those I always check out. In the end I like the formating, but the builds not so much. About him stopping, there were a video competition hosted by GGG and he was one of the top 3 (or won, I don't remember). The video was a teaser for a build guide, a Lab runner Jugg, was really good edited and fun. For reasons only Freud can explain, he got so much flame for it that he ended up not releasing the build guide, even sharing his script in the TH-cam community page. Ever since I never saw another of his guides. Probably it wasn't only that, but burnout too. But having so much hate comming at your way might have sealed the deal.
While perhaps not the biggest PoE cc, my favourite one has got to be OMGItsJousis. The Forbidden build and all his video's following have given me a tonne of laughs on him breaking the game and making ludicrous builds.
Awesome Idea for a video! The ultimate community highlight of who's who is super good. I, on my part, offer a deplorable mention of the bastard who made that one unkillable character in Hall of Grandmasters unique map =)
I went with the WHOLESOME angle for part 1, who should I include in part 2? Let me know!
Neversink and Openarl come to mind. Their tools had and have a huge impact on the game for players.
Pathofmatth?
PathOfMath and the "BFR" incident 💀💀
Agreed on Path of Matth, which several others have already pointed out. He's both famous and infamous, but should not be forgotten. It's actually hard to give suggestions, as I'm sure you did your homework really well.
For me, AKANE Ch.
She is a lesser known japanese youtuber, focused only on mine builds, but goddamn her builds and videos were so detailed and good (with some great song selection too).
For me, she's one of the examples of players who love an archetype so much, they dedicate their whole content solely to it.
You should 100% mention Neversink. I'd wager that 95% of players use filters constructed by his tool
What is that?
@@Blujay188 neversink is the main dev of Filterblade, the site that most PoE users use to construct item filters
Perhaps honorable mention to the current Delve phenom ShitstainSteveReturns
At almost 43k atm 😂
He's still mining for netherite.
Eldritch Miner
Connors better in my opinion.
he hit 60K depth a couple of days ago .
It was Kripps discharge ignite build that got me into PoE all the way back in mid 2013.
ditto!
that's awesome
Omg I remember that, he was leveling in act 3 merciless zone.

He hated the idea of having to blast fast and often set out to prove you don't have to zoom. He pushed for people playing solo self found before this was even a thing in the game. He was also known for being highly critical and highly controversial with his very vocal takes, often calling the devs out for making - in his eyes- dumb choices.
Bakedchicken is almost the exact opposite, the super grinder blaster of shield charge coc discharge or vaal spark fame. Blasting his way to level 100 by just going fast back when that was actually a challenge. Chancing headhunters and corrupting them, not even blinking an eye at the bricks. But most importantly, his very crude and degenerate gamer style humour was a blast.

@@obitum HAHA. Yeah, that was the meme back inthe day. People would literally watch a Mathil video, see what unique's he's using, and buy as many from the market as they could. Knowing all the items were about to 4-5x on the market.
How has no one mentioned poedan. First hardcore uber elder kill and basically every new build idea is stolen from him.
PathOfMath definitely needs to be mentioned
Well maybe he is reserved for next episode
I clicked specifically to see PoM lore 😂 thanks for saving me some time.
Yup, Kripp got me into the game way back in 2013.. I'll never forget! May his OJ be ever flowing.
I think Aila deserves a mention in part 2, dude showed up out of nowhere and won consecutive SSF HC level 100 races for a year straight with some of the most creative builds I've ever seen
Lovely content buddy! Hope to see Ziggy, Mathil (most respected streamer in POE), Lighty, Ziz, Tarkecat (where the hell is he now?), Jousis, Cutedog, Path of matt, MTXtreme, Path of Exile builds channel was also one of the first build guide maker (no idead who runs it though) and few others i cant recall their names... One name you should never mention is FastAF.. he's fake, so many fake videos he's made... Kiitencatnoodle deserves a place too.
Many more notable players. Some of the top of my head - Charan (one of the biggest supporters), Havoc (first level 100, one of the best racers), Shitstain Steve/Turdtwister (the madlad), Zizaran (community), Kittencatnoodle (lore expert), TalkativeTri (the shill/most positive human), etc. etc.
Great video! My first endgame league was Ancestor so I'm quite new in the grand scheme of things. But I love learning the history of the game, Thank you!
Welcome aboard!
LOVE this kind of content man a Tri spin off of an old favorite (as an ex-WoW veteran), Madseason is a dream come true
Belton AKA GOAT
PoE streaming scene is one of the most proliferous. Glad to see it get some recognition
This is your best work on here yet, awesome stuff😊
Cutedog_ and DClara1 are the two streamers I used to watch, so many memories of blasting maps while their stream would play in the back ground. Cutedog and Ziggy D doing commentary for the China Vs Rest of the World race was so good, "He is playing 4d underwater backgammon right now"...
2 players that made me play this game for so many years, Kripparian and GhazzyTV, both excellent players and content creators.
always cool to see the OG getting the respect , Kripp is srsly one of the most legit/humble streamers ever
Another suggestion for an infamous player would be DeMiGodking
Vastly prefer this type of content during news drought. Thank you Tri!
Engineering eternity was huge in making poe really enjoyable for me. Amazing guides!
It's crazy how I can instantly tell I'm watching Ben play with no other indicators except his gameplay ability
GFL needs a mention. He does an exceptional video series every league.
Demi, the OG drama! Look into it.
You better cover GCP man lol, he was the first to discover the gem recipe and kept it secret for months, he was probably the richest player for a very long time.
buddy, your already famous. your consistent in depth PoE2 vids... your up there :) grats ;) x
PathOfMatth definitely, once respected, now infamous player.
Grimro, the spreadsheet man
Can't believe no one mentioned slipperyjim
bros fishing the asmongold reaction at the start of the video hahaha
Great to see EE in here, channel was a godsend when i started. Id have to suggest suit as well, lab champion.
Started playing because of Kripparian and the Molten Balls Cyclone Berzerker was the first build guide I followed which was done by Engineering Eternity.
I honestly always thought arpg weren't skill based game that much until Ben. What a fkn legend.
Great video, very much enjoyed it :)
Great video, look forward to the next. EE was my go to for such a long time, set a gold standard for information presentation.
A long while ago, there was a player named Ventor (I believe it was) that hid the interaction between scouring and "prefixes/suffixes cannot be changed." At the time, this was a big deal. He was accused of RMT and so on. To me, he was quite infamous.
Great video probably your best content yet!
I think Kitten Cat Noodle definitely deserves a mention for all the lore.
jousis for the memes
empy for the insane group play
havoc for trying to get more people into racing and being a great racer himself.
belton, who's not the man we wanted but the man we needed in the tft war, and an insane crafter with great crafting videos. (who funnily doesn't use pob.)
hawg and darthmtx, the new guys
Huge fan of this series and your stuff in general, keep it up !!
Belton imo deserves a spot on your list, this guy crafting is on another level. Great video!!
I want to bring up an old name: Eirikeiken
I know him as the first person I saw making MS Paint meme builds, and the guy that got keeps getting his Wormblaster build hotfixed by GGG lol
do you remember the legend of the gcp man
This video was absolutely fantastic and very well researched. Please keep them coming!
Great idea for a video! Slippery Jim next
Would love to see Pohx here, everyone knows him, Mr RF himself, with a whole wiki for a specific Build
I cant believe he play one build for decade, so he even create a website only for one build. That crazy.
Also who plays poe know how GGG can nerf to the ground any build. And his build never was overpowerd but still survived.
no way theres no pohx in this video :D
mathil and quin lol so strange
maybe he has part 2 coming
I decided to not delete my comment because I was stupid enough to comment before finishing, so this one is on me
@@hmp01 And ProjectPT, PathofMathh who told f to GGG. But ProjectPT was not banned for it, he played WoW for a year or so and after it came back to poe, created private league on HC with all options on (yeah, even banned stash) and played it with 50 viewers
Also do you remember the legend Moldran?
EE was one of those I always check out. In the end I like the formating, but the builds not so much.
About him stopping, there were a video competition hosted by GGG and he was one of the top 3 (or won, I don't remember). The video was a teaser for a build guide, a Lab runner Jugg, was really good edited and fun. For reasons only Freud can explain, he got so much flame for it that he ended up not releasing the build guide, even sharing his script in the TH-cam community page.
Ever since I never saw another of his guides. Probably it wasn't only that, but burnout too. But having so much hate comming at your way might have sealed the deal.
I swear, if this Video would have started with anyone BUT kripp, I'd have stopped watching :D
Good priorities mate, well deserved!
Heh, I did my research. I KNEW who had to be first.
GGG made POE, but Kripp also made POE.
Very happy to see EE included in the first batch!
Gotta mention the OG GCPman in part 3 or something. The front for one of the first cabals in poe, back when recipes werent common knowledge!
humble tri in the bottom left of famous players :D
I was waiting for the gigachad muscle pose 😂😂😂 Fun nostalgia content
great video idea!
While perhaps not the biggest PoE cc, my favourite one has got to be OMGItsJousis. The Forbidden build and all his video's following have given me a tonne of laughs on him breaking the game and making ludicrous builds.
Great video and series, thanks!
"his builds are wacky"
*footage of DD in the background*
lol?
Can't wait for the video w true real gods : eirikeiken, jousis and co'
Devmoon back in the poe race days
Awesome Idea for a video! The ultimate community highlight of who's who is super good.
I, on my part, offer a deplorable mention of the bastard who made that one unkillable character in Hall of Grandmasters unique map =)
14:30 Such a legend, EE is amazing
Zizaran (for his teaching content), Neversink (for filterblade), havoc (for racing), pathofmath (for infamous)
so funny how you can tell who he's talking about just from the first sentence describing them alone :D
Talk about Kay Gaming, Zizaran and Ghazy
probably not worthy of this video, but Aila's RF Occultist has a place in my heart forever
Lighty - For his on going All4One SSF unique collection series as well as his previous Rags2Riches series
Can confirm that Kripp was the one getting me into PoE, bought my first stash tab at "Apr 11, 2012, 11:30:50 PM"
IMAGINE NOT PUTTING ME ON THE LIST FOR MOST INFAMOUS PLAYERS...
Dissapointed.
gotta save someone massive for episode 2!
Brrrroooooooooo!!!!! Been a minute, missed your cracked builds back in the day. How you been?
I followed "Ben" when he was on limit for wow. I saw that he started streaming poe and didnt realize he got this big in it lol
