Having played tanx for a few years and having known most of the great tanx players during that time, I have comprised a list of the very best, many who no longer play on a regular basis. So here it is;

1) Ultra Br (a.k.a massacre upr)

Considered by many to be the best, ultra combined huge talent along with tactical awareness to devastating effect. He was aggressive in battle and had lethal accuracy which often led him to totally outplay his opponents. His terrific brazilian flair confused his opponents and also showed great sportsmanship.

2) Pancho villa (a.k.a DestructorAzteca)

Pancho shared similar attributes with ultra and had vast amounts of experience. Being one of the veterans of tanx he rapidly improved at a faster rate than many around him which led him to dominate for a long time in the game. Sharp movement and pinpoint accuracy in shooting accounted for this.

3) Minni Me

Supposedly the earliest tanx player, minni me became the first real king of tanx. Extremely sharp in all departments he was virtually invincible when in top form. Unforunately due the criticism he dealt to ghost rider (a moderator) he was permanently banned from the game and this subsequently led to infrequent appearances under cover.

4) Brock lasnar (a.k.a Spiderman)

Very similar to minni me, brock's rapid shooting meant he destroyed opponents before they had the opportunity to retaliate. Had the potential to become the best but mysteriously left.

5) Bryan Br (a.k.a Unidos revolution)
One of the founders of brazilian tanx, Bryan helped introduce hundreds of brazilians to the game and demonstrates great skill in every aspect of the game. Along with his fluent english, his consistency and inability to make mistakes makes him very hard to beat.

6) Terremoto

Another brazilian with outrageous skill, terre was one of the most feared opponents around. Given his excellent knowledge of the game and the map, he got the better of most of the opponents he played against and was on occasions unplayable

7) Snakedaddy

One of the most talented players in the game, snake showed great skill and had the potential do beat anyone. However playing the game whilst being drunk at the same time often led to careless mistakes and ultimately cost him in the end.

8) Wretched Urchin (a.k.a Al capone)  

Another veteran of the game, urchin had great technique and intelligent tactical ability which led him to defeat every top player in the game. Brilliant when on form, urchin was a specialist in open play and devastating in tournaments.  

9) Klayton

Klayton was blessed with great flair and the ability to quickly work out his opponent's moves. He invented the 'reverse turn' and was the first to master it. During the time he played the game he inspired many of the new players and was highly popular.

10) Taliban Forces (a.k.a medina division)

A great character, tali adopted a fearless attitude which resulted in him not being intimidated by anyone. He reluctantly joined the most difficult of operations and would often emerge top. He made up for his lack of technique with his huge array of knowledge and understanding of the game. A true legend.

11) Tank Master

 
An ambitious, arrogant yet nevertheless an open and friendly young man. Tank always sought to improve himself since he joined in the early days of tanx, and was eventually rewarded with great success. Possessed pin point accuracy with grenades, he exploited this talent to full effect in battle.

12) Williams the one (a.k.a miliboy)
A player who appeared on many subscribed nicks, mili largely played on hills and was often direct in his approach. His complex moves were difficult to pick up and had the rare ability to fight more than one opponent at one time. Left after falling out with a moderator. 

13) Mexican rebel

Mexi was another who possessed great kill, particularly in shooting and constantly varied his movement in battle to baffle his opponents. Notorious for his ability to defeat top players, mexi's tremendous humour made him very popular.

14) Uag Iron

Iron focused his game centrally on tactics and brilliantly used the map to great extent. Having always been a decent competitor, iron took his game to the next level by studying others and practicing regularly.

15)anddlay

Anddlay showed an unparalleled rate of improvement, studying the technique of others by training with them and combining this with natural and unique shooting ability to make him highly effect against some opponents. Anddlay achieved a lot of success despite being relatively new to the others mentioned above.   

16) Bandit

Another player with plenty of skill and accuracy. Difficult to beat when in aggressive and direct mood.

17) O Master Br

Very effective with grenades

18) UAG Alex BR

Dangerous on hills and grenades.

19) UAG. Ruck

Good all round player with plenty of experience

20) UAG Rayos

A promising young player with great skill adopted from others but yet to prove fully himself in the game.

These are my top 20 and i dont think i have missed anyone out. Some of the 'top' players right now dont deserve to be on the list because they usually bank and have yet to truly show they are great players. Anyway if you think you or someone else should also be included then send me your thoughts and i may revise my list. Thanks for reading, gtg now, laters..
