sup playas?

I'm gonna run another big tournament, and just like last time, there will be nice prizes, except this time you'll get the prizes much faster!

What I need from you, the community:

1. Post all of the good North American players you can think of, that are completely active, none of the players who won WCG 6 years ago, and you still ride their wang.

2. Label each player with a current skill ranking, between 1 & 10, 1 being the lowest skill, 10 being the highest skill.
<b>Compare everyone to just foreigners, don't compare them to Korean, or the rankings will be much lower.</b>

3. Post the country they are from & which race they use.

4. After you're done with your list, list the best 3 players on the list that you think would do the best vs. pro gamers, and reasons, not just because "they're good".

5. Don't dare to spam this thread with any stupid comments.

Well, I don't know that many gamers in North America but this is how I'd rate them, and since you didn't give any sort of standard by which to rate 1-10, as in what a 7 would be, my list is inclusively proportional

Testie, Canada, 10, protoss
Oldy, Canada, 8.5, protoss
Jianfei, Canada, 7.5, protoss
Nony, USA, 7, protoss
Blackjack, USA, 7.5, terran
Artosis, USA, 6, terran
InControl, USA, 7, zerg
G5, USA, 7, protoss
Idra, USA, 7, terran (8 TvZ)
Dinot, USA, 6, protoss
Bandit[Light], Canada, 7, protoss

Note that 6,7 or whatever is not bad. It's just that if we're talking about North America inclusively, then Testie is the #1 North American player, meaning he's the 10, while no one else can really be a 10 cause in my opinion no one else in NA is as good as Testie.


There are a lot more people who I know are good but I don't have any experience with, like Schism[Light], some other [Light] guys, some other people

I'll add more as I think of them, but I'd think you'd probably know more players than anyone who might post wouldn't you PR?

Yes.

There's new people I don't know about, skill wise, so this is incase I don't miss anyone.
Also good to get a combined rating for players, by people who watch a lot more recent replays of North American players than I do.

Dino is much better than 6 man. So many good American players say that he can beat many good amatuer koreans and top americans .

i think that list is a bit off tbh. I think idra's tvz is better than an 8, at least.

Theres all the people i can think of atm if i think of anymore i'll add to the list...these are just my personal oppinions on the players from me playing them and watching reps...(tho i havent played some as of late they may have approved or gotten worse depending on the person)

err i think the people who would do best v pro gamers would be assem, testie, and Iefnaij (probably) becuz obviously testie and assem have *played* v progamers and iefnaij has played in televised tourneys so he has some experience....plus i have a soft spot in my heart for that cute little canadian

Mexican players included I'm assuming. If so, heres a few. I can't really judge them on a skill level but I'd say they're Mexico's cream of the crop:

I remember him doing quite well in a tournament that he participated in here not too long ago. I think it was the one where Draco won and there was alot of administrator problems. There was a big fuss about someone (cant remember whom) screwing others out of a spot? I honestly don't recall the name.
