Serral at 18 cant see this having any kind of blowback

The only one I can see Serral being ahead of is Rogue (even though I disagree) but there's no way he's above any of the others. TaeJa, Polt, MC and MMA have won around the same amount of tournaments as Serral who were on average harder to win so there's no argument there. Putting him above any of the top 10 is ridicolous.

At least when we go by pure achievements without giving extra points for dominance which the Serral fans desperately want to do to justify him as the GOAT.

Polt, MC and MMA had great periods for sure, are they ahead of the guy?

What has Dark done to be ahead of Serral, especially given their head to head?

18th?

The difference between players like MC, MMA, Polt and Serral, is that in all periods of their careers MMA, MC and Polt were championship contenders.
so yes they are ahead of Serral

Since GOAT means Greatest of ALL TIME, not just the last two years, there is no argument that can justify Serral as ever being even close to GOAT, first of all cuz he was a nobody in WOL and HOTS (a nobody in 2012-2016, he only 'got good' after KeSPA dissolved), which means the AT (ALL TIME) part of GOAT is already denied from him.
Now he could definitely be in contention for the Greatest of LOTV, but not All time.

Well not really my point, was Polt ever the best player in the world at any point in his span? He’s had a great career no doubt, but does anyone think that?

Why does Kespa breaking up count against Serral? If anything it’s a plus point that a guy from outside of that background can hit the pinnacle of the game.
