Taking the age old argument of Kirk versus Picard, to its logical conclusion.

A Starfleet captain needs to be a leader, a diplomat, and a strategist, all wrapped in one. The best captains are those who know all their protocols and directives, but also know the right moments to bend those rules for the greater good.
We've seen both legendary and mediocre captains in Trek, and it's interesting to look back and see how they all compare to one another.
It's been quite some time since our last video ranking all of the captains in Star Trek, and since then, there have been a few new additions that deserve to be included. In this list, we're gonna focus only on captains that served an important role in at least one whole season. It wouldn't really be fair to include captains like Rachel Garrett and John Harriman, seeing as they only appeared briefly in canon.
So, with a focus on personal achievements, leadership style, combat skills, and interactions with alien cultures, let's see which of these captains would 'boldly go' and which ones would simply 'go'.
