Chinese gamers not included. I think this are the four non korean gamers who made the most cash with bw. And thats what counts. Maybe Nazgul earned more than fisheye but no other. Not Sven not saft not anyone i remember so far. I think i've read something like that. Grrrr = Around 300000 $ Elky = Around 80000 $ Fisheye = Aroung 25000 $ ( With computer stuff and other prizes included ) Slayer = Around 15000 $ ? He won KBK and of course some other shit  NTT = Wcg 2nd, wasnt he ? If i would chose the Best non korean gamer ever with skills and dominating and game style, not only with cash my opinion is like that : Grrrr Slayer hasudrone Fisheye Pillars Maynard Zelias All gosus Srry i have fergotten many other gamers comparable to the ones on this list | ||

For me NTT who couldn't play eliminations for WCG ( don't remember which year ) was the only one who could do something in Korea. As I remember he was late for the finals in Holland and he couldn't play. Slayer, he played BoxeR and lost. I think he lost in that match 3-0 not 3-2. Maybe I am wrong. It was so many years ago. It was the last contact with korean players without going to this country. The best player from Europe vs new star from Korea. Zelias, many tactics, very good player but for me the best person who was writing every minute of the game and what to do. Many players that time was reading his strategies and first timings in the game. This was first apperance of logic and technic way to win in SC. BlackMan, he was third at WCG ( I know Elky was 2nd year before ). The best zerg player outside Korea that time. It was a very big impact in Poland. The best macro when playing zerg. Grrrr, the first player who went to Korea and played very well. His reaver drop was incredible. Even today his reaver drop is one of the best in the world. Of course there are many otrher things but this is the most catchable for everyone. And... Montaro. First terran player who show others that protoss and zerg can be stopped in SC ( not SC:BW ). The same time like Grrrr who was then a rising star. His site and short screen play locking down carriers and using nuclear after lockdown carriers and building 6 or 7 barracks and pomping marines against zerg. There are more players, but for me they are the most important for SC outside Korea. | ||

In my opinion people can do more for some games, bussines etc. than earning and counting their power in money. NTT wasn't 2nd at WCG. He never appeared in Korea. 1) If you dont do it by money and by watching replays and vods. It's senseless to discuss, cause then u can name the gamer u liked most and no one cant even say you are wrong. You cant be wrong then. But i think u somehow HAVE TO compare their greatness with winning money everything else doesnt count much. For sure some legendary games, strats, inventors, developers, moves ect.. are all honorable and to get mentioned. 2) I may be wrong but i rember a picture where u could see 3 gamers at wcg. I_LOVE_STAR NTT and someoneelse i dont remember, maybe chobo or sven or i really dont know. But i am pretty sure ntt got 2nd and won 10000$. Maybe it wasnt WCG. Maybe only something like that. Correct me if i am wrong @ Bigballs : i dont know if fish earned 15000 or 30000. But he won quite something : 10000 wcg 400 amd challange 1000 with other tournaments 5000 with Prizes 400 with ebay and letting stupid gamers pay 10$ to get a game vs him. so around 20000. Maybe more or less. | ||

Slayer went to korea and played Boxer in the now defunkt Rival Revenge matches. Slayer lost 3-0, I only remeber the last game where boxer owned TvZ on Char. On a side note, ChRh, then random, gained a lot of fame by beating boxer 3-1 in the same show a little later. edit: char not chair:o | ||

Conclusion, you are too young to understand that these years it was a different playing and wasn't counted into money. | ||

In my mind now I see the news from broodwar.com. The scenario of these two players with their suits which are normal right now | ||

Conclusion, you are too young to understand that these years it was a different playing and wasn't counted into money. and you should really get your facts straight. | ||

For your personal best gamer or the gamer u admired most or you think who owned most u can go by everything u want. Inspire when did u start ? U even know Kali ? Did you play FSGS ? I started in 97/98 and no thats nothing to be proud of. But u cant tell shit u dont know. I played at the first two years. I liked Grrrr... and his skill and his development of toss. I hated Boxer because he kinda pulled Grrrr.. aways. But i try to be objective at least. And objective = Rate gamers by success => Success = Cash . And not gosu games or replays. I hope u understand me now. The gamers i rate the best arent my personal favourites. But its all about objectivity. | ||
