The answer

It is not permissible to describe a player as "God" or "Godlike" because "God" means deity, and "Godlike" means divine or lordly, which confirms their intention to liken him to God. God alone has no partner, and none resembles Him; everything else besides Him is created and has no share in divinity. This act is the handiwork of the ancient polytheists. One must be cautious about uttering such words, for a word can cause its speaker to fall into the Fire.
