I wonder in light of Serral's recent accomplishments, his position in the "Greatest of All Time" is a tad low?

He lost a close Ro32 match against Classic, and while Serral has improved his position since the vote with this HSC victory, so has Classic with another GSL round of 4. So I don't think it would necessarily have changed that match. Serral did perhaps get a bit unlucky bracket wise, but so have a number of other players.

It's a bit low, I agree. However his results startet showing in 2018 while other players (Classic, Stats, Inno, etc.) were successful years before him.

Had this TLGOAT thread been made a year later, who knows maybe Serral would be #1.

Maybe you can put sOs there but definitely not classic.

Classic might not even be top 5 protoss. Rain, Stats, Hero, MC, and Parting might all be above him.


Classic has a lot of hardware, dating as far back as 2014. A GSL, an SSL, 2 ST, an IEM, 3 premier silvers.

that's more hardware than Rain, with more longevity.
hero has 3 weak IEMs, and nice but unremarkable Korean placing.
MC has 2 Gsl and a weakass EU. a red bull? that's less than classic has done.
Parting has 2 premier wins, no GSLs, and longevity, but not much else.

Classic has had himself a really nice career.

Right now I'd say he's somewhere between 15-20.

If he repeats his run last year with an equally impressive accomplishment, (lets say winning Blizzcon, HSC 20, GSL vs the world, all WCS stops, and the Asus) he's probably the GOAT

Only problem is we've never seen him in a prep based tournament. If he only won blizzcon and then hopped over to Korea to get a GSL I'd instantly out him as the GOAT.

I know it's not in the logistics but I think the GOAT needs at least one GSL proper, or an OSL SSL equivalent.

In the end it's the thing that broke Taeja's case

It's almost two different games. It'd be great if there were some form of preparation tournaments outside of Korea, as it takes a lot (too much?) to uproot yourself and move to Korea for an extended period just to play in 1 tournament. Especially as he'd probably be losing money in order to do so.

I'm also fairly certain that right now his fans care far more about him being the GOAT than he himself does.

What a relief to see another Classic fan, greatest protoss in my opinion. Classic is still heavily underestimated and he has been for his whole career, Stats in the only one that can reasonably be argued to be ahead of him if you ask me.

Still besides Taeja and Nestea I think this BO8 looks pretty good

MMA's got an additional Premier tournament win over Polt, and he's been a much stronger team league player. Polt is one of the most accomplished Terrans of all time, but MMA's got the edge

Taeja was the most feared player besides Life at one point. but I'll never understand how he didn't win a WCS AM at least. who the hell was knocking him out?

MC vs MMA is one of the closest polls imo. I voted MC but I think they are basically tied.
But none of them is a top 10 Player anyway imo. Bracket luck worked in their favor.

I agree it's one of the closest polls; I think they are both top10 material, instead.
