Try getting your info straight before you post
I konw he's done more then making finals of WCG, but it wasn't until he got to finals of WCG until people seriosly started considering him to be one of the best. Compared to what mondi, testie, and draco have managed to do in their time, andriode hasn't accomplished THAT much. Not unless russia has a shit load of huge tournies and such we don't know about.
Androide is too inconsistent. When he plays on the top of his game, like that dropship game on gaia vs legionnaire in wcg, and like vs Silent_Control(pretty much dominance) he's atleast among top 3 maybe the best. Same can be said for Assem though, but neither of these players are playing anymore so it's no use placing them on a "top foreigner" list. Oh and about the topic, cant be answered because there's no one who stands out above everyone else. Picking a top 5-10 is easier, because you can actually base it on accomplishments the past 6 months/year.
Again, it's difficult to compare these guys because of timing and such.
All I can say is that it's undenyable that Androide did the best against the pros in WCGs. He beat leg and control both in the final stages of the tournament.
The kid played fucking great the whole time, so you gotta hand it to him.
But again, I'd be very comfortable betting on half of the ToT lineup to beat him in a showmatch. Take it how you will. Bottom line is there's no way to pick a best player so we shouldn't bother.
lol, I don't get why everytime someone beats someone else who is WAY MORE accomplished in tournaments, "O HE IS BEST FORIENGER NOW FOR SURE". Cut it the fuck out.
My best foriengers list:
Assem Pj Lx Super Mondragon Testie Draco Advokate
Order isen't important but Im sure the chinese players are better then the europeons+testie, except for maybe assem.
well maybe not pj cause he's freaking inconsistant as hell. But Super Lx Hbq... But most people generalize china as only pj, cause people think he's the best in china lol.
True, all because of luck and magical faeries that make Androide lose because he never cares. Then he swears a lot when he loses. But that's only faerie dust and illusions.

its a generally accepted term used to mean non korean. theyre not saying hes a foreigner of his country.
I believe The.Super should get a mention, He is #5 currently on pgt and does not really have any weak matchups. Assem is still very godly but is semi retired from serious gaming now I think. I believe if Pj didn't have to switch to all P and still counts as a foreigner, he is the best overall because of his TvZ/PvT. Other than that, right now ToT)Sen gets my vote. He's won a lot of important games in the past couple months.
