TBH, Xur isn't that great of a player, or leader, or really anything. However he has been surrounded by competent people who can reliably keep each other safe, way back when BO's assigned squads and everyone stated off as "Standard" marines # 5 billion. That being said, Banter Bravo for life.

I don't think I agree with what you just stated, Those competent players followed me because I am a good leader, granted my robustness differs from time to time, I have good moments and I have bad moments. What people dont seem to understand is that Ive made a name for myself BECAUSE I was good. You followed behind me before Kreydis, you should know how many times Ive lead marine victories in pre-alpha, and I know I didnt do it by myself, I had a good team as my sword and shield.

Let me rephrase that. In a sea of incompetence you are a shining beacon of hope. However you've had some pretty hefty disobedience faults with you here and there. Granted you're still the SL I'd rather follow then 99% of the random names I see now'a'days.

I've been rescued from some of the dome-hives on Lazarus so there is yet hope for the subdued marine...

As far as Xur goes, he seems to surround himself with good players, and failing that, he just plays solo, my observation.

Well, I've escaped from a xeno nest before. I shotgunned my way through the hive and as I shuffled my feet out the caves, to sweet freedom, I screamed and finally got chestbursted. Wasn't even mad.
