A: Bobby Fischer

B: Anatoly Karpov, Judit Polgar, Mikhail Tal

C: Ding Liren

D: Veselin Topalov

soggy_dumpling_8: Strongest ever is Carlsen. Greatest career is Kasparov. Highest peak over his peers is Fischer. That's the whole debate.

LostTaco48: No Capablanca is wild. He barely lost a game for eight years.

dave_a31: Topalov will always be toiletgate to me

lost_moose: Ding only won because Magnus didn't want to play

nuggetlurker: I love Tal but he's not top 10 all time
