I believe IEM is the only title left that he hasn't won before
now no one will doubt him
definitely the best non-korean player ever touched this game (and the greatest of all time for me personally)

Great tournament, although I have wonder why the hell the schedule was so stacked in the first 3 days, like 12hrs+ of stream everyday, and this last day was only 5hrs. If you have time to spend, spread things out more evenly so that more fans can watch it live.

Meh, as the lag spike happened, Serral was already in the process of killing the cluster of roaches. I didn't see much mentality change between before and after.

I agree very much. I missed the semis

Greatest of all time is just hard to get when you started being dominant so late. But he's definitely greatest of LOTV imo.

I think at least 4, but him vs. innovation would be super interesting becuase Inno never got a world championship. I think him and inno are tied for 3 - but I could see arguments for either.

Rogue and Maru still the two GOATS and roughly tied with each other imo.


But the absolutely phenomenal thing is Rogue, Maru, and Serral are all still making history. This conversation isn't over yet and any of them could have incredible runs in the future that continue to shift the discussion.

Inno played in an insanely more competetive era than those other 3. He's easily the GOAT.

Definitely, but I think part of it was that it's Sunday. From the big LAN's I've attended they usually end very early on Sundays.

Serral undisputed best player atm. Unstoppable vP, crushed Maru 3-1, and just took down all the other top zergs in Dark, Rogue, Reynor

It's such an insane run, he beat all his strongest contenders in a row, offline.

Stakes slightly less high in groups, but close to the perfect dominant run.

It’s probably as close as we’ll get to a playoff
bracket where one of the top 5 has to go through all 4 of the rest

Well, thats THEIR scheduling problem, has nothing to do with the fans or the players. And to be clear, I dont mind the short 5hrs today, I was talking about the 12hrs+ on all the other days.

Let's just say Serral has a real shot at the title now, it depends on how you value results; for me, now, he's the GOAT along with Maru who has had a longer career but lacks a World Championship.

Yeah Serral having the better unit comp that pause allowed him to think about what to do next not to die etc. You could see Reynor was super stressed out biting his finger :/

Yes, to me (and i'm sure to many others) Inno is the GOAT, given how he dominated for so long, during the peak era. There were a lot of tournament contenders at that time and the game got constantly balanced to prevent OP things so multiple championships were a more accurate representation of skills (rather than race). Now we only have Zerg champions, so in order to win championships you only need to be like the best out of 3-4 players.
