Hypothetical Goat Question
With all the talk surrounding Guma potentially cementing himself as the ADC goat with his MSI victory, I started to wonder a potential hypothetical. Faker right now is cemented as the Goat without any meaningful debate, but could he ever be surpassed?
Assuming Guma continues his incredible performance with HLE, what would it take for him to surpass Faker as a goat? His career right now always has that asterisk caveat of having played with Faker, which in my opinion unjustly undermines his performance for the three years that led to T1's threepeat victory at worlds. Right now, Guma is probably the closest in reaching the absolute peak that is Faker's untouchable Goat status with 3 world titles and an MSI victory without Faker, so what more would he have to do in order to surpass it?
