Oliver Lang is unquestionably the most individually talented player in the history of paintball. If Ryan was the architect of Dynasty, Oliver was the artist and leader that inspired greatness in all those around him. Known for his game-breaking moves, unmatched ability to read the field, and elite poise, Oliver was the most dominant player in the league for over a decade before his retirement. He was able to consistently produce World Championships throughout multiple eras of paintball and did so on multiple teams. He was the spiritual and emotional leader of the greatest team ever, San Diego Dynasty, and used his unique approach to the game to become the highest earning player of all-time. He was able to assert his will on opposing teams in a way that no other player before him, and no player since, has been able to replicate. Oliver rose to the top of the sport during the most crucial period in the game's history. During paintball’s push to become a mainstream sport, Oliver pulled the game in front of a worldwide audience of players. The vast majority of tournament players over the last two decades fell in love with paintball while watching Oliver Lang make huge moves on ESPN and his contributions to the sport can never truly be quantified due to the vast reach of his influence. He is the most influential athlete in the sports history and his relentless drive for his own perfection of the game has been a key centerpiece of the sports success.
