Keep them on. What they lack in pushing boundaries, they make up for in style. They practically ooze it in their best replays. Like that one replay ChezDa has where he splits uke then smashes the two halves together, then chases after the crotchblock, I still love that replay, it's distinctly ChezDa.
Plus, I feel like there should be a balance. If you only put the best, it sort of feels excessive in trying too hard to showcase something. Putting some older replays that maybe don't stand up to current standards for being the best, but still look nice, rounds out what's presented, and sort of gives the impression that you don't have to be breaking records or causing the internet to collectively orgasm to be acknowledged in game.
