I love Rage, but picking him as a team player?
Sterling would not have won if Plare hadn't attached to Rage and then repped for him...
KN may not have been as good back then, but at his top (pre-injury :'() he was an obsessive beast.

What people don't realize is Sterling evolved as a top team with the same people over the course of like 6 years. If Rage wanted to join Intrepid or Assassins at their prime then he could have - and would have done just as good as Dingo/Travis. Instead he decided to play with friends and stuck his neck out a lot in games to try and make big plays.
As for Kingnewbie, the reason I point out that he wasn't as impactful back then was because the talent pool was larger - subsequently making his light in league a bit dimmer. Now we have a population of like 80 and he sticks out more because the talent pool is substantially smaller.
