Who is it then?
I chose the 7 most skilled players of all time (imo) to add to the poll. However, if you think it's someone else, please specify your answer. xd

The line has become too blurred these days to have a single "best player" anymore

You forgot Combined and Riot. I realize Riot isn't as good anymore, but for his time, he was incredibly good. Plus Combined is insanely good and verifies a lot of extreme demons. But as to the best player I would have to go with knobbleboy or combined.

Other because there is no "most skilled player ever" because players keep getting better.
If I had to choose atm, probably Knobbelboy, Riot or SrGuillester.

If I had to choose atm, probably Knobbelboy, Riot or SrGuillester. Riot, while the best of his time, was never even close to as good as many players today. Just because you're the best of your time doesn't make you the best of all time.

It is impossible to decide who is the best in my opinion. Here's why : Basically we've come to the point where the best players are beating the exact same levels, and these levels are pretty close in difficulty (except for Knobbel but he is the only exception), so what level they beat isn't really the determinant factor to rank them. What matters however is the speed at which they do so. However it's not the speed as in the time elapsed between each hard level they beat because 1) someone can beat a level in 2h and someone else in 12h yet it will feel like they both beat it in one day even though it's not the same thing. 2) people tend to practice a lot of levels at once so beating a lot of levels in a short period of time isn't actually all that impressive (which is why Guillester is a bit overrated). Attempts are a better indicator of the speed at which players beat a level, but they can be very easily faked so we can't really trust anyone on this. Result : there's no real way of quantifying one's level.

too many to compare and to actually pick 1 from.
if we had 1 person who majorly stood out,then sure. but they're all too tight to pick one.

Honestly it keeps changing like every week: "Oh he verified this extreme demon level so he's the new best player" or "Oh look he beat that level after a few thousand attempts, our new pro number one right here!"
I think it's safe to say that it's more of an opinionated question more than a fact: I believe it's more difficult to judge someone's skill on a game like Geometry Dash anyway since you can't say that because someone's beaten more harder demons than you they are a better player: the other person may not have much time for the game and whatnot.
If I had to choose though, I'd say Luqualizer. He beats demons at the rate it takes me to beat hard rated levels and not a huge chunk of people know him so in all honesty he deserves the spotlight more than any other player at the moment.

I agree with everyone else. We have so many new skilled players these days that we really can't just go and say that one of them is the most skilled. This was the case even back in the day with the Riot vs Cyclic debates (though we now know that Cyclic did hack, at the time it was effectively like this), some said Riot and some said Cyclic, there was no clear winner until Cyclic exposed himself.

I'm the most impressed by Wooshi. The other day he beat 4 extreme demons in 24 hours, and Srguillester impressed me too with his 7 extreme demons in a week. I think Combined is up there as well, but doesn't have as much patience (he beat subsonic super quickly)
Honestly, I am impressed by anyone that beats an extreme demon at all
