Cheeky shout for Stark on flank scout. Big plays on lan and across a few eras too.

When I first started watching TF2 the Mike vs Stark dynamic was like lame Esports nerd version of Ronaldo vs Messi in EU.

CW the other standout of course.

You can't have a goated team if you don't have Stark in it

lolguy underrated: the diff for that wG win over Froyo a little while ago imo

my picks are mostly coming off of memories from i46-i55 era of TF2 with some NA bias due to just me watching more NA games than other regions. I also added a big list of honorable mentions for each role to give some players credit during this time period and beyond.

flank scout: clockwork
honorable mentions: shrugger, enigma, jay, yz50, arekk

pocket scout: b4nny
honorable mentions: ruwin, hafficool,

scouts who were really good but i dont remember which role they played lol:
yomps, slemnish, corsa, kiler4fun, flippy, schocky/stefan

roamer: blaze
honorable mentions: seagull, mike, laz, drackk, ma3la

pocket soldier: kaptain/jay/yomps
honorable mentions: yomps, TLR, i55 b4nny, lansky, grape

soldier honorable mentions because these players swapped a lot between pocket and roamer:
silentes, tek, zebbosai,

demo: habib
honorable mentions: east coast yung b4nny, kaidus, warhuryeah on LAN, bdonski, i52 termo, ryb, brego, duwatna

medic: i dont think there's a definitive best med player skillwise so I just listed good medics below:
shade, harbleu, knoxxx, bonobo, mirelin, thefragile, raymon, indust, pyyyour

multiclassers (people who were not top of their role imo but were consistently very good across multiple roles): ash, harbleu, starkie, paddie, ams

the most interesting roles imo are demo and pocket soldier as I think their roles have changed a lot since the i46-i55 era until more recently.

sry if i forgot people

IMO there are only 3 positions that have a clear front runner and everyone else is fighting for 2nd place. There are a lot of great players to compare but these 3 proved to be far above anyone in their respective roles.

Medic -- Shade
Demo - Habib
F. Scout - Clockwork

As for the other classes:

Soldiers -- ROFL good luck with this one. There are at least 10-20 solid choices from NA, EU and AU
P. Scout -- probably b4nny but once again there are a hell of a lot of other solid choices that did the "pocket scout" role amazingly and can make cases I suppose

for me i think

Why nobody mentions azn he is the best multiclasser from all time

blaze on lan ping played his role better than anyone ever has, it's just his role happened to be roamer
