The "Goats"

The goats, short for Greatest of All Time, is a colloquial title given to players considered far above the standard caliber of player skill seen in the tournaments. The term came about during the Among Us Invitational 2022, referring to Wes and Miindy, as both players came in as dominant favorites, and currently hold the majority of titles given out thus far with Miindy having 2 and Wes having 1. While the term was officially named during the Among Us Invitational 2022, it has existed by less standardized names prior to the tournament.

The goats are controversial players, not due to their actions, but rather due to their position as players significantly above the skill level of the average playerbase of the tournaments. Some consider their participation unfair and have asked for their removal, and both players themselves have considered not participating due to feeling "overpowered". Others however point to the victories of underdogs Ryan and Philip as arguments that they do not make the tournament unfair. At this time both of their participations in the upcoming Indigo Major is uncertain.

## Greg Gaming 1

During the first Greg Gaming Invitational the term had not existed but Miindy was highly favored to win, yet suffered her first and only defeat thus far to someone not considered a "goat" in her 10-8 loss to Ryan during the tournament Semi-Finals.

## Greg Gaming 2

During the second Greg Gaming Invitational Miindy was yet again the only player considered to be within a higher skill bracket and emerged as a heavy favorite despite her previous loss to Ryan. Miindy eased to victory, beating Pizza in the final to claim her first title and the first title to be one by one of the aforementioned "goats"

## Greg Gaming 3

The third Greg Gaming Invitational served as more or less a repeat of the previous tournament for Miindy. Once again she was the overwhelming favorite prior to the tournament, and won a second consecutive title beating Teddy in the final.

## Among Us Invitational 2021

In the first Among Us Invitational Miindy was once again a tournament favorite yet was not the only with the additions of Meziic and Wes to the tournament roster, both of which were considered to be of a higher skill level like Miindy. Wes and Miindy met in the first round of the tournament with Wes delivering Miindy a 9-3 loss, handing Miindy her second loss ever and her worst loss to date, relegating her to the losers bracket. Meanwhile Meziic cruised through the first round without defeat before suffering a 9-6 loss to Philip. Meziic faced Miindy in the second round of the Losers Bracket, with Miindy pulling out ahead in a 9-6 win, Wes would cruise through the next couple rounds with ease while Miindy did the same in the losers bracket. In the Semifinal Wes would face Philip in a fateful encounter with Philip winning 15-13 in double overtime sending Wes to the losers bracket final against Miindy in which Wes won a much closer more intense match 9-7, sending him back up to the Grand Final where he would lose again to Philip, denying both of the favorites the title.

## Among Us Invitational 2022

Going into the Among Us Invitational 2022, Meziic confirmed his intention not to participate, leaving solely Wes and Miindy, who would become dubbed "the goats". Both Miindy and Wes achieved perfect records at the end of the Group Stage and fought their way through the bracket until meeting in the Winners final as many predicted with Wes triumphing once again over Miindy 9-7. Following Miindy's victory over Candy in the Losers final, Wes vs Miindy was confirmed as the Grand Final. During the three part series, Wes pulled ahead as winner winning 2 games to 1, giving him his first title.
