Greatness is completely subjective. I can say Has is the greatest player of all time because of his genius pylon wall and you can't disprove it. The only thing that can be somewhat objectively measured is the level of success a player had. | ||

If you believe voting would have given the most objective results for GOAT, then they would also give the most objective results for qualifications of GOAT. | ||

We aren't valuing if he is the greatest person ever, we are valuing if he is the greatest sc2 player ever. He probably wouldn't get far in the first competition because of his matchfixing, the other one though... | ||

He doesn't even have to make investments, he could just stash it all in a savings account with a decent interest rate and retire at the age of 19. Though he'd have to settle for a somewhat cheap life if he did that. The grapevine says Life squandered most of his legitimate earnings on gambling, which probably made him desperate enough to match fix so he could get more money to gamble away, or payoff gambling debts. | ||

So Life is basically SC2's version of a child celebrity... seems all awesome on the outside until a year or two passes and all the dark shit behind the scenes comes to light. (though a source for that sort of allegation would be nice) | ||

The only argument for Mvp is that he has won more GSLs but I consider a blizzcon to be at least equal if not more impressive than a GSL. Also stating that life isn't anywhere near GOAT is just wrong and biased. Even if you think mvp is #1, life would still be extremely close no discussion on that. Jürgen > Life. Life is probably the better player of those two, but Mvp is the greater  | ||

(confused face) http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2015_KeSPA_Cup_Season_1 If e-sports gambling is anything like sports gambling, there will be wagers on the winner of a series and also on the number of games that will be won or loss. And the sequence of those games. And any random permutation of events that is remotely possible in that game. | ||
