bahamut was one of my favorite not-quite-rivals-because-he-was-usually-ahead on all of DCL. He always brought something different to the game than I could find from others -- the laser 1 kills, the willingness to pull out fusion in circumstances nobody else would, that brutal 9-suicide Logic Obs promo match where I needed to finish with 14 kills and he was determined not to let me get there. Hope we're able to connect at future LANs.

I respect that you competed. I respect that you almost always gave me a challenging game. We certainly had our ups and downs, not terribly surprising considering we are both very competitive people.
You were definitely a memorable part of my DCL career.

The true martial-arts master of dogfighting, bullet-time, and emotional/instinctual play. bahamut doesn't read his opponents, he feels their presence; he doesn't dodge incoming fire, he steps around it. Clearly one of the eternal elite.

You’ll always be the man in my book. GGs, brother!

Bahamut is zen. Bahamut is one with the fusion and with the plasma. Bahamut hails from a place of perfect unity with himself and with his space.

You've been a dear friend, and I've enjoyed studying the game with you. A true blessing, and we'd have all been impoverished without your influence. Your excellence is bright, and I am grateful to you for sharing it.

No one made the skill ceiling seem further. If I had to pick one pilot to save the world from imminent alien invasion and I was assured the best possible version of that pilot, I'm probably picking baha.
