The answer is Rogue. He won a GSL and used his bully pulpit to say Zerg OP. That puts him in the running for GOAT even if he doesn't have the number of tournament wins as others.

Definitely Serral. He was whole year long the guy to beat.

I think serral would have beaten dark at blizzcon if they had gotten to play. Reyner is just serral's kryptonite, and by kryptonite I mean the only person that can go about 50/50 with him.

Serral easily. Reynor is the second best though.

Serral winning this poll shows how delusional his fanboys are.. Blizzcon/GSL/ST >>> 2 HSC, 2 WCS and GSL vs the World. In the tournaments they didn't win they were both regularly top 4/top 8 so you can't even use that to say Serral was better. Dark was top 4 in every GSL this year.

As much as I like Serral thinking about it objectively I have to give it to Dark by the tiniest of margins. Winning both a GSL and BlizzCon while Serral didn’t even make the final match. (Which was a huge disappointment I would’ve much rather seen Dark vs Serral than Reynor).

I dont understand why everyone is so certain Serral would have beat Dark.

Dark is an extremely talented player and had obviously prepared hard for Serral. The first thing he said after beating Raynor is that he was disappointed that it wasn't Serral in the finals. It seemed like some shade, but apparently he knew everyone was going to go around saying he was second best, even after a killer year when he took the most prestigious prizes in SC2.
