- The thing is, nobody really knows what makes 117 better than the other Spartans. He's not the strongest (Sam), the fastest (Kelly), the smartest (open for debate, but not John), the best leader (Kurt), the best sniper (Linda), the sneakiest (Anton and probably Gray Team as well), the most versatile (Fred), the best pilot (Joshua), the most determined (James), the most impulsive (Will), the best at demolitions (Grace), or the best at 0-G (Li). That doesn't really leave many areas, but John's best quality is, in my opinion, his ability to survive anything. Anything. He's incredibly resilient, true, but that's not mostly what I mean: quite apart from surviving through adversity, adversity just doesn't seem to touch him. He's lucky. Anyone who has played Halo or Halo 2 on Heroic will acknowledge that although it takes considerable skill to play through the whole campaign on Heroic without dying. But playing through both campaigns back to back without dying once not only takes extraordinary skill, there's a couple places where it's just down to dumb luck. In that regard, John is lucky, and that's why everyone says he's the best of the Spartans. -theblackthrone (atthecenter) (ofultimatechaos) 00:41, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
