I made one of these 4 months ago:
https://www.vlr.gg/572626/goat-of-valorant
From they way your poll is going right now, it looks like Ethan, F0rsaken and Alfajer surpassed Chronicle
We have yet to see the greatest of all time or maybe we just don't recognize them yet.
But I'd say the best player so far is Aspas but he doesn't have the wins to be a goat
true goat: Leo
goat: Boaster
goat if not igl: Alfa/Chron
americas fans' goat: Aspas (Chron/Derke clear btw)
na fans' goat: Ethan
prx fans' goat: F0rsaken
