[discussion] Who is the most talented EU League of Legends player ever?

SoaZ has eight. 2018 Spring/Summer, 2017 Summer, 2015 Spring/Summer, 2014 Spring, 2013 Spring/Summer. He was also a finalist in 2016 Spring, 2015 Summer, and 2014 Summer. Since the EULCS has existed there have been exactly two splits (2016 summer and 2017 spring) Where SoaZ didn’t win or or reach the finals. He has a world championship (agreed less valuable being season 1) and an additional finals appearance under his belt, and has gotten out of groups at worlds in all but one of the 6 World Championships he’s attended. He also has an MSI group stage.

Perkz, on top of his 5 domestic titles and MSI win, has one MSI groups appearance, one additional worlds semi appearance, and that’s it. He’s been to two other worlds and failed to get out of groups, and one other MSI where he also failed to get out of groups.

So in my mind the question just boils down to whether or not you feel like Perkz actually winning the international MSI title supersedes his otherwise (relatively) mediocre international record. To me, that’s no. Even though SoaZ hasn’t won an international title since the iffy Season 1 Worlds, he’s consistently a better performer on the international stage, and he holds more domestic titles.
