Best T was Androide and i hope he will prove it on this WCG too :-]

Im mentioning players that stand out for those particular matchups. Come up with other players that can compare to assem/rets tvz then. Anyways we know rets gonna start playing so I think its totally just to name him even though he isnt that active right now. Breakdowns ZvZ can only be matched by Mondragon, and iNcontroL/Scnibl0r when they're in the zone.

There isnt exactly a wave of P players that has impressed me PvP. Fisheye won Pusan and took a game from Nal_rA. Perfectly just to name him in that MU regardless of activity (he played just over two months ago), and you need to look at results over a reasonable amount of time ie 6 months to 1 year to accurately judge a players current skill level. 6 months ago I had Draco in top 3 PvZ and got laughed at, now everyone is praising him like a god because he finally proved it. When it comes to Androide I just havent seen any foreign terran having sexy vulture control like him, and generally play nonstandard harass micro intensive TvP and winning with it against good Ps. Doesnt mean there arent others who are really good though. I just havent seen anyone that stands out which makes it hard to come up with a certain player. Androide stood out in that MU when he was playing, but Im not gonna argue on it because that's my opinion based on the replays I saw from him in tournaments(not only WCG).

Of course many players arent that active now, because there's basically nothing to practice for. ECG got cancelled WCG prelims are still 3-4 months ahead so meh.

Oh and Supers TvP is pretty solid yes, though I havent seen enough replays of him in that MU(past 4 months) to tell if he's the best.

I read on yaoyuan that Super will release a rep pack soon featuring most of his PGT games.

hehe that'd be a feast.

soo..were not supposed to be proud?
These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

Why does this topic always come up after a tournament? There is no 'ranking system' warrant such a label in our scene. If you aren't pro then you are mediocre at best. Those who think they are invisible better think again. There will always be the same names. Until someone stands up and starts winning every single tournament they enter just drop it.

He's not the best foreigner, or else he would be playing in Korea.
Pj and Lx however, are good enough to have been scouted by SK Telecom and are doing very well against some high-leveled Korean amateurs. Pj 2-0'ed quite a few recently.

having a top1 in this game is almost impossible because draco may own right now but in 2 months or so he will slump, besides testie did raped zvp, and mondi raped testie, and pj imo is pretty incosistent, because i just cant believe a guy with so many training in korea cant do what draco, testie, mondi and even assem did, but W/e

Draco is good, but there's not enough ground to call him "best foreigner."
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

dont say top 1.

top is plural.

Ill fix one person at a time.
How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano

bad reasoning. skill is far from the only determining factor in going to korea, especially in the case of pj/lx.

HBQ was v.good, but nothing else. Super's TvZ doesnt impress me.


Obviously you didn't seem him tear apart Siva in CKCG. He demonstrated a level of micro/macro that goes unseen in the European/American scene. I can name only one person outside of Asia who has that macro in TvZ, and only a few names with that micro.

pj will have good pvz in time. his pvz has already become a lot better since he went to korea.

i don't see much talent in lx though. i think he will be one of those players who must rely on risky builds to win.
And this hot potato has vanished into thin air.
