How can you compare players from different years?

Titles and prize money are facts. Who played best is an opinion, and fans will always argue about it.

Prize money depends on the year: the prize pools from 2015 to 2021 were much bigger than today. TI titles are easier to compare, because there is only one International every year. Today's best players are on our Pro Players page, with their teams, heroes and ranks.
