I guess that means IdrA isn't a real foreigner this year?

2007 had the 8 following players:
Nada Draco Bisu Testie Savior Sen Nal_Ra Pj
And I dont believe there was ever a Blizzard WWI for 2006. There has been Blizzcon since 2005 which had Nada, Legionnaire, Nal_Ra, Mondragon, Yellow, Assem, Reach and Testie.
Blizzcon 2006 never made a showing. Never took place for the Blizzard family.
Blizzcon 2007 had YellOw, Skew, Iris, Xellos, Reach, Testie, Savior and Nal_Ra.

The details should be:
SAVIOR Ma Jae Yoon Zerg Winner of the 3rd Shinhan Bank OSL, Pringles MSL S2, Pringles MSL S1, and UZOO MSL
YELLOW Hong Jin Ho Zerg Winner of the GhemTV FindAll Challenger Starleague
NADA Lee Yun Yeol Terran Winner of the Shinhan Bank OnGameNet Masters, 2nd Shinhan Bank OSL, IOPS OSL, KT-KTF Premiere League Championship, 1st GhemTV StarLeague, Panasonic OSL, Bankin Robbin KPGA Tour 4th League, Pepsi Twist KPGA Tour 3rd League, and Reebok KPGA Tour 2nd League
XELLOS Seo Ji Hoon Terran Winner of the 2005 WCG Progamer Seed Selection, 3rd OnGameNet Challenge League, Olympus OSL, and OnGameNet Challenge League
NEVER Park Ji Soo Terran Winner of the Arena MSL
...
and JANGBI, IDRA, and whoever the final player would be.
-_-
As for the final player, I suggest sending JF.

Wish there was more foreigners. Blizzcon was like a mini-WCG for me where top foreigners play against pros. Too bad no Mondragon or NonY
Next Blizzcon, NonY may be on the roster since he is the favorite to go to Korea.

If they skip a year then maybe the next Blizzcon will have the SC2 tournament.

Visa will decide who will be there at the end so if the player could not get it they might invite another US/Can player

Canadians don't need visa?

Send Nony. He's cool and good.
If he can't go, send JianFei, he is arguably the best foreigner in the world right now.
If he can't go, send Mondragon, because he's cool and good.
Thanks in advance. This Thats what I call north american teamliquid view. I know both communitys european and north amercian and I tell its a long time ago since a north american has been the best foreigner. And no neither Idra, nor Nony or JF are the best foreigners atm. Mondi isnt too cause he is in bad shape atm (otherwise he would be the best of course). I think its Dreiven who is the best atm. But its hard to say I admit cause many MYM, a few ToT,Idra, JF and Nony are almost on the same level. I like you hannoob so I will leave flaming out of this but you are wrong. You would have made a better case listing Draco.. the guy that actually won the WCG that Dreiven attended and took 3rd in? The reason you didn't is because Draco is a confusing person that nobody can really tell in regard to how serious he is. Draco is the best European atm.. perhaps foreigner. Mondragon is a close second for european. Top foreigner is hard to tell. Credential wise JF has the best claim considering all players went balls out in TSL and he bested them all. NonY is in amazing shape but I'd still give the edge to JF as a more well rounded top player. To say that a NA player hasn't been considered the best in a long time is... short sighted imo.. very short sighted. If winning TSL doesn't make you a good bid for top non korean I don't know what does.
Well you showed me once again that your name is not Skew, Idra or Nony but that you are one of the mannered americans. I apologize because my post was a bit too agressive. Maybe JF is the best foreigner atm (his reaver micro is simply amazing). But the last 3 years before were dominated by two european players. First Draco and then Mondragon. They were better as all the north american players at that time even better than Testie. I admit that it changed now because Idra has his korean training so he might be able to beat Draco and Mondi now, Nony became super strong especially in PvZ and JF won TSL. (Infact winning one tourney does not show to me who is the best, you have to judge the overall performance in all tournaments)
So what I generally critizize is the fact that teamliquid user tend to overrate the americans because they dont know the european scene too well. In addition guys like Idra or Nony seem very arrogant to me overrating themself (although they are good).
I think I expressed myself more clearly now without being so aggressive. Thx for the friendly not flaming answer, although Nony and Idra might be more skilled atm, you are definitely my favourite north american player beside g5 and JF cause you guys behave like normal humans and not like flaming kids.

Er... what is this Visa nonsense? In some countries you need a Visa to visit another country? Everywhere I've ever been I just hopped on a plane with my passport and flew there. Forgive my ignorance.
