With the alleged B&M Wing coaster making it's way over there - and the loss of now 4 coasters at SFMM, this park has the most coasters in one park.

There's some world class coasters there (Zadra, Hyperion) and some decent rides along with pure filler but generally is a pretty decent spread.

I do think the overall quality of SFMM coaster is higher - from the B&M glory years such as Riddlers and Tatsu (less said about Scream the better); to X2 in it's prime and absolute classics such as Viper and Ninja and that, for me probably means I'd still consider it the coaster capital despite not having as many coaster.

I guess "Thrill Capital of the World" branding SFMM has going will now be more relevant since they're no longer the roller coaster capital of the world. Energylandia has some really good roller coasters but I agree with you that SFMM has overall better quality. Also, we don't speak of the problem child known as Scream! They better not skimp on out maintaining Riddler and Tatsu. Those are literal crown jewels. It's a shame X2 had to go but the lawsuit gang won that battle.

The only benefit to Scream existing that I can see is that there was no value in converting Riddlers toa floorless ala Mantis/Rougarou
