      Well technically he is actually not even close to being the puzzle GOAT, Ray Robson holds that title without a doubt. I think he is a 4 time consecutive puzzle world champion now, and he has outperformed Hikaru several times. Hikaru obviously crushes him in actual games but when it comes to pure puzzle solving Hikaru doesn't stand a chance.
