I hardly play against great players. But the challenge of a best player totally depends on how long I play SRB2. If I play SRB2 now and go against MegaSonic, LXshadow, or whoever, there's a slight possibility I'll lose, since I didn't really play(at all) much last months. But if I play it everyday alot, that possibility becomes much smaller.
Gametype plays a little role too. I'm kinda decent at match, but totally suck in CTF. 2/3 of the time I get beaten by players that lose 2/3 of the time against me in any other gametype. Lag plays the biggest role, and most of the time ruins the match's fairness.
Well, a general list of good players I played with:
------------------------------------------------------------------
MegaSonic(Great for warming me up in match)
LXshadow(Keeps beating me in CTF >_<)
Moonlander(I barely win from him in race everytime)
Mystic(At least I could keep up. Bit laggy server, especially because of the traffic)
Furiousfox(Played against him a year and half ago with a slight bit of lag. Defeated him twice, got beaten up two times. Dunno how mighty he is against me now.)
SSNtails(Not that great, but he won 3 of the 8 times in CTF*cough3VSmecough*, and it was a fun match.)
Secret(Overall decent player)
Sabre(Sole devil in CTF, but not so tough in match or race, though)
SuperSonic - the real one(No longer that tough, but his first CTF match against me was awesome)
ZuperSonic(Your average player with no glaring weakness. Just had a lot of fun matches with him)
Whackjood(2 weeks ago or so, I played SRB2 at my friends house, and could host a short little netgame. I dunno if he got good, or I lost lots of skill, but he was quite a tough opponent in race)
AND MORE I FORGOT....
