I think Khanada and Epikwhale should be in the conversation as well. Epikwhale has 6 fncs wins, got 3rd at WC, and is super consistent. Khanada is only a 1 time fncs winner but he's the only person in the game to make every grand finals and he's always in the top 5, I think he's the most consistent players of all time.
The Mero glaze is wild work, he played with one of the best IGL's for most of his FNCS wins and sure the LAN win was good, but it was probably the least competitive LAN in Fortnite history. Additionally, TaySon has had the second most dominant chapter of all time, which is only beaten by Peterbot in a shorter chapter with less big name players (newer big name players, less veterans etc.). TaySon got 4 FNCS wins over 2.5 years, Peterbot got 4 over 3 years with a huge drought in the middle. I think Mero doesn't even make top 4. My list would be 1. TaySon, 2. Peterbot, 3. Aqua, 4. Queasy, 5. Mero.
5-3 are interchangable as of now. If you think Peter is 3rd and Queasy is 5th, that's perfectly fine 5. Peterbot 4. Bugha 3. Queasy 1 and 2 are also interchangable, but it's clear for sure. 2. Tayson 1. Mero Peter dick riders gonna get triggered he isn't number one
The only thing that disqualifies Peter for me is the fact that while he has four FNCS wins, one being a lan, he was incredibly inconsistent until chapter 5. Even when he won with Bylah in chapter 3, the chapter was still inconsistent. Consistency across chapters is one of the biggest things I consider for the goat debate, and Peter just recently got that consistency. Now, if he keeps that consistency next chapter, even if he doesn't get anymore FNCS wins, he's definitely the winner of the debate
Debating goat in an rng game is a bit complicated, also why do we only look at placements, how about looking at how those players performed, looking at things like eliminations, clutch plays etc.
1 is mero, undisputed goat with 6 fncs wins on a major religion including globals, and multiple to 5 finishes. 2 is bugha due to his wc win and 3 fncs win with many top 5 finishes, 3 is tayson cause of his 5 eu wins but no good lan placements. THIS IS OBJECTIVLEY RIGHT
Just relating this to American football, I would say Bogga is the Tom Brady and Peter bot is the Patrick Mahomes where is Booga for a long time being considered the goat but now a new challenger coming in trying to take the throne.
It not fair to say Peterbot is the goat right now because he’s only got 4 fncs wins he is 4th and Bugha is 3rd because he’s got 3 and a World Cup win. Otherwise keep us the goat
Why I should be considered the Fortnite G.O.A.T? Because I have the IT factor who can beat duos, trios & squads by myself in arena & BR when I have my favorite loadout. Why I'm not the Fortnite G.O.A.T? Because I'm unlucky like Eomozo finding teammate(s) & because new Fortnite players like myself who have no streaming PC are getting shadowed by content creators
Peter is the only one that can take those crazy creative fighting skills & transfer it to winning tournaments. Everyone else in that goat debate would get cleaned up by reet in a 1v1 , let alone Peter.
I’m happy you put EpikWhale in here, the argument that they were all on west, still insanely impressive. He also got 3 in wc solos and 12th in wc duos. He won gamers 8 with Malibuca so a language barrier, and got top 5 in zb gamers 8. Global championships of 27th place each time is a bit sad, but he has great achievements
