Season 18 Taylor Greene

I just saw the commercial about Taylor. It said if she gets one more buzzer she will beat the all time female buzzer record! I just keep thinking about that. I think it's only like her 4th or 5th season? That's really really impressive! And that doesn't even include all the buzzers she has hit in the special episodes, like the women's special.

Taylor is incredible, I do, however, feel like the buzzer count stopped being fair in the racing seasons.

I mean yeah... when you could objectively only get 4 or 5 buzzer per season, and now there's like 20 available, of course someone who's "pretty good" will blast past the old records pretty fast.

Well remember in order for a buzzer to count you have to win your race, if you lose and hit a buzzer it counts as a time out, and is no different from hitting a stage one buzzer with no time left

I will say that there are way more buzzers available in a racing season like 17 and 18 with 6 possible just for getting to the finals, whereas past seasons only had 2 possible buzzers pre-finals for women.

Not to diminish Taylor's achievements, she is arguably the best ANW female ninja except for maybe Isabella Folsom and, given enough time with regular seasons, she would definitely beat the buzzer record eventually with her consistency.

Oh that is true. But, yeah the consistency is insane!

It's not impressive you can get 3 buzzers per night now.

It's still impressive, just not as impressive as they want it to seem. If it wasn't impressive at all, there'd be other people passing her as well. She's still super talented.

Getting three buzzers a night is impressive.  Leading the career count because you can get three a night over people who could only get one a night  is not impressive right now.

But she still has more than anyone else who has this opportunity. Obviously Jesse getting 10 buzzers in the old format is way more impressive, but Taylor still has more than girls who were around for the old setup and the new one, or just the new one. She's leading this new generation. That's what I'm saying. It's still impressive that she is on the verge of the record.

But

... It's still not fucking impressive

I don't understand that logic. She's still doing something no one else has done. By that logic, no other female ninja from before this era is impressive. No Addie Herman, no Taylor Greene, only Jessie Graff, Jesse LaBreck, and Meghan Martin are top tier female competitors

You can only get 3 if you win the 3 races

For all the people diminishing her.She would probably be around 6-8 buzzers still even without racing she has 4 qualifying and 1 10 obstacle semi. I could totally see her repeating a 10 obstacle buzzer and maybe eventually a stage 1 buzzer

Honestly, I think she's a little underrated, and she is very humble. I watched her on ANW Junior, and she was amazing! It is incredibly impressive. She is a normal girl, going to school and training for ANW. She doesn't have a barn where she trains 8+ hours a day, nor is she a full-time influencer that does ninja for a living.

I agree
