What is the hardest 'what is the hardest..' poll to answer?

The kind that asks you to pick between pieces so hard, you have never even attempted them.

Hardest Chopin etudes.

I think that is probably the most disputed set of pieces on this forum.

I've never seen Liszt's etudes, or Rach's etudes ARGUED to such extent!

I love it!!!  The anger that a Chopin Etude thread can reveal in people  :D
Interested in discussing:

-Prokofiev Toccata
-Scriabin Sonata 2
