Haha yes, such half-hearted sneaking with banshees. I think the spores were already started before the overlord spotted the banshees too.

Rogue's achievements are pretty insane, but so are Maru's with 4 GSLs, a Super Tournament, an SSL, AND an OSL, also the Proleague performances, and WESG ok too but mostly, Maru has a lot more 2nd, 3rd, and 4th places than Rogue does yeah I think Maru is clear I used to believe in the Code S mystique more, but given what progamers admit themselves about their priorities, I think it's clear that the big money tournaments are significantly more important. Rogue is my all time GOAT  Just because a tournament offers more money doesn't mean it looks better on your resume though, look at WESG and its 32-player pool where like only 4 or 5 are good
Doesn't matter. The players care about winning WESG more than winning a "harder" $10k online tourney.

Sure, but competition level also plays a role in weighting tournaments, not just cash,

Yeah, but what the players care about is meaningless in a GOAT discussion.

Clearly it matters a lot. Or else we'd weight every wardi event with a stacked roster equally with the GSL. Players are better judges of stakes and what "matters" than fans.

Eh...sure given two tournaments at the same time, one with 60k and one with 20k, you will rather prepare and focus for the 10k one.
However these tournaments don't happen at the same time exactly. And you would rather have 80k than 60k. There's also prestige and the level of play.
GSL. Level of play is pretty consistent. You cannot say the same for the world championship or ESL and dreamhacks where you have two very clear tiers of players. The GSL is without a doubt a harder tournament.

by that logic the GOAT list would just be a highest prize-money won list and then Special would be a greater player than Mvp

We're clearly talking about different things. And if you're talking about the effort players put in in winning a given tournament, players don't have to put much effort into winning WESG considering only the last 2-3 matches are (possibly) difficult.

Yes but the koreans don't care meme aside, players prolly give their all to every lan tournaments with a +10k prize for the winner.

I will say that one thing I'm super happy about is that the "final GOAT" is definitely still up in the air depending on the next couple of years. Any of Rogue, Maru, Serral (depending on how much you weight his 2018, not trying to get into a debate) still at it; maybe people arguing for Inno if Rogue/Maru/Serral don't have many more accomplishments.

I can't see a world where someone would rather play Serral, Reynor and Clem than DRG, Hurricane and Dream. The top GSL players play in both kind of tournament.
