I'm surprise how little vote Morrow is getting, even less then qxc in an arguably more open group, his results pretty much compare to White-Ra in my mind, plus he's the original reaper abuser. Byun was a way better reaper abuser, that's why  White-Ra was of a higher caliber, a Legend in beta and got third in the first "World Cup pre-Blizzcon event"; koreans took his skills in high esteem, Morrow did very well but wasn't really reputed to be as strong.
Oh, ok I have an hard time judging player that were before my time

Here's the polls
First of we have the one you have all been waiting for, the JinAir prodigy is joined by my personal favourite WCS champion of all time, GuMiho and The-one-we-wish-had-matchfix.
In group 11 Flash start his run to try to because the greatest of both BW and SC2 and his joined by another BW great in Rain and two underdog.
Moon is the odd one in group 26 as the only one that had the power to resist the tentation of the uppercase key and in group 27 we should see an hard battle for second place.
Edit: Rain is the protoss one

Fun fact Pigbaby championship run in WCS America 2014 season 2 was perhaps the best WCS run ever, in his only final run ever he beat opponent who had a overall total of 35 premiers finals(!!!)
He had to goes through the online qualifier beating Ryung and iA before beating the Has in Chalenger and in premier league beat Revival-Huk-Xigua-Oz-Taeja-HyuN and Bomber.
He sadly got eliminated by future champion Bomber next season but not before eliminated Taeja and Jaedong in the round of 16 because he's a baller.
He also is the only WCS champ ever not to get at blizzcon (because there is no justice)

that whole wcs season was hilarious, I remember Pigbaby tried to carrier rush vs Bomber on one map in the finals

BOXER!!! 
And IMO, the right result with IdrA
I need to promote these legends of the game more, there seems to be a tendency to vote heavily for modern champions.
Remember, this is not a contest about absolute skill, but "greatness". And being great can mean you're much better than your peers, or the influence you exerted during your time, or your own personal subjective criteria.

Can confirm that I'm the only person who voted for patience and whitera lmao, because I'm on mobile and clicked it by accident.

Ryung > Flash. They were both far better in their team victories than at individual tournaments, but at least Ryung didn't consistently bomb out of the GSL every time.

Guys, Dimaga broke Nestea's ZvZ streak in a bo3.
He deserves to go through!

If Boxer was voted more than Hydra, there is no problem for Flash to be way ahead of Ryung(who didn't win a single Premier tournament in his whole long career).

If you rate Proleague highly (which you absolutely should imo) then Flash is clearly above RyunG.
|
Is that Terran Rain or Protoss Rain? Big difference there.

Boxer > Hydra is even more absurd, that is true.

Flash also beat Zest to win an IEM and lost to Life in a MLG finals. Its not like Flash had 0 individual success.

The fact that he was so mediocre compared to his BW success should exclude him from anything GOAT related imo.
It’s super cool to win an IEM and stuff if you were a random BW pro, but when you were the GOAT of BW having as little success Flash had in sc2 is really mediocre, he didn’t live up to his potential, whereas Ryung was a random who achieved a lot of solid top 4, which is IMO a greater achievement.
