I didn't even play on the server when bard best of the best happened. However, I'm not saying I'd win, but certainly the tournament might be better named "Best of the Players on Said Date Able to Commit to Playing in the Tournament". [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Not to diminish the bard BoTB either, but the bard epic is so game changing and only a handful of bards on the server had epic at the time. I know everyone thinks their classes epic is game changing, but not like the bard 1.8 modifier to all songs including singing is - not to mention you can melee while chanting. I was on a bit of a EQ hiatus at the time, so even if I had epic I wouldn't have shown up, but a bard with epic should never lose a duel to a bard without.. ever. I'd guess there were less than 5 epic bards on the server when BoTB happened as TMO was the only guild with epic bards at that time, so it was basically pre-determined among those very few players.

That being said, I got destroyed on a stupid mistake at 2v2 against a team we should have dominated, so not like I can claim I'd have done well at BoTB.
