Inspired by SoMuchWin's topic 'Best Cedar Fair Coaster'

Same rules apply, whats the best Merlin coaster? (Only noting major attractions, nothing like flying fish etc, but I'll put other option if you want to state differently of course...)
 

Colossus

Giga Poster
Saying Colossus because its my number 1, and kind of my name.

But I would go out on a limb and say that if I had rode Colossos, it would probably get my vote.

I think it's a close call between Nemesis and The Swarm.
Vampire (chessington) and the Dragon (Legoland) are in my top few though.

I wish, I could be able to vote for three of those coasters, but as I can't I'll just vote for The Swarm (My other two votes would of gone to Colossus and Vampire)

Nemesis.

However I'm biased as it's my number one and there's a fair few coasters in the poll that I haven't been on yet. ;)

Best coaster Merlin have put in is The Swarm, things like Nemesis were not Merlin so I don't count it as theirs :)

^But well done on not going everyone's usual route of "vote for what I've been on" method. IE, why those comparison polls currently ongoing will only ever be bollocks.

Off topic made up example to highlight a point:

25. Sonic Spinball vs 74. T-Express

Winner: Sonic Spinball 37-2 because we're a bunch of absolute morons

Back on topic:

Colossos. I haven't been on Swarm, but having ridden something not entirely dissimilar (Raptor, though Swarm looks marginally better), I highly doubt it would even come close.

Certainly not Blue Tornado because...

I love Nemesis so much, I've brainwashed myself into never liking any other coaster more.

ACTUAL lmfao! Hahahahahaha!

Let's qualify this by saying that the only one I've never been to is Heide Park, so one of theirs could possibly win. However going on the ones I've actually ridden, then it has to be Nemesis. I know it's an enthusiast cliché, but there is just *something* about it that genuinely excites me. I just love it so much <3

Ahahaha! Excellent.

I voted Stealth because I'm a bit of a fangirl, but in actual fact I think it's probably Colossos.

I vote Stealth, my favourite coaster in any Merlin park. Nemesis Inferno is a close second, with Nemesis not too far behind either of them.

Three very good coasters imo.
