YYDS is a new acronym in Chinese and is essentially the same as GOAT. GOAT stands for Great Of All Time in English and YYDS stands for 永远的神 (yǒnɡyuǎn de shén) which literally means "forever the God". It originated when famous eSports player Shiny Ruo shouted Uzi 永远的神 (Uzi yǒnɡyuǎn de shén) to his idol Uzi, a retired Legend of League player.
