    If you have won a title, you may go to Saber's lavish after-championship party. If you have not won a title, please continue sitting on the bench in purgatory.

    (Like Hammer, I am a bit unsure who has or hasn't won.)

    I'd also consider bjd from this league as well, but I can only speak for S3SL.

    He is (or was, dunno if he is now) pretty active, yet no dice.

    Re: Who is the best longtime GM to never win a title.

    I think the best answer isn't really an exact answer. I suppose if I ever got my ass into gear and released the power rankings, you'd see that the top 12-15 have all won at least once but more importantly, contend almost every season in every league they are in. So in reality, all the best long time GMs have won, essentially. I'm sorry, but if you make the playoffs just once or twice the entire time you've been around and that's between 2-3 leagues, you're not a best longtime GM, you're just a longtime GM.

    a co-title with the CPU? Anaheim did avenge that 2021 LCS loss to Detroit by beating them in the LCS in 2022. SD lost to Pittsburgh in the first round.

    C'mon Zito dude, release the damn GM rankings.

    On a non-ego boosting note, I think BJD's prolly the best, although his inability to part with Fortuna and Todd may have cost him a run at a title.
