Nice to have you! Nee blood is always more then welcome. My list of best EU players would be consisted of : Terran : 1.Clem, 2.HeroMarine, 3. SouL, 4. Uthermal, 5. MarineLorD Hot prospects : Milkicow, AqueroN, Arctur, Cuku. Also, Kas is pretty god as old guard. Protoss: 1. ShowTime, 2. PtitDrogo, 3. Harstem, 4. MaNa, 5. Skillous. Hot prospects : MaxPax, arrogfire, goblin Spatz. Hellraiser and Gerald are close to top5. Zerg : 1. Reynor, 2. Serral, 3. Elazer, 4. Lambo, 5. Vanya/Denver. Hot prospects : souleer, garitos, kiyj. Also, Bly, SortOf and Stephano are really good with chance that former best EU pro Stephano make comeback if he is active. I probably forgot someone but scene is active and there are many good players we dont even know. Like, guy named Battle, german terran made impressive run in 3rd qualifier, almost qualifying. I dont know much about NA scene, someone will do it better then me for sure. | ||

Serral and Reynor are the best foreigners by quite a big margin. And then you have the 2nd tier foreigners but still very, very good like Heromarine, Clem, Showtime, Special, Astrea, Neeb... | ||

There are a lot of players at the top. This year has been more even than most. Serral is not expected to win EVERY tournament. Reynor is losing to more players than Serral and Koreans. Newer players are performing really well (Astrea and Clem being 2 examples). Veteran players have had some hot streaks. Exciting times for fans of non-Koreans. | ||

Clem , Heromarine and uThermal seems equally a bit sharper than other foreigner terrans. For zerg there is basically only Serral and Reynor, there are many others very good players but they are all clearly below the two previously mentioned. Foreign sc2 is in a really great place right now, hope you will enjoy your time with the game! | ||

Drogo is like Rogue with lower peaks, instead of winning GSL or Kato, he gets a top 4 in DH EU  Both are realy inconsistent | ||

These two best foreigner players, Serral and Reynor, are heads and shoulders ahead of the other foreigners, although still mortal, and are toe to toe with the best Korean players. Astrea is a very good NA Protoss player that went and trained in Korea for some time iirc. His results in War Chest Team League are a bit inflated by having the best ping advantage against every opponent iirc, and he has less experience than Neeb, another NA Protoss player, who was the best foreigner in 2017 and stayed top 2 or top 3 foreign Protoss ever since (and probably between top 3 and top 8 among foreigners). Clem is a very promising young French terran, probably more skilled than HeroMarine (according to HM) at the moment, but with less experience so his performances have more variance. Overall the aligulac list is good, but does not really take into account (afaik) the stakes of the games played, so the EPT points list is probably more accurate to gauge the foreigners, even though the sample size is still a bit low. Welcome to StarCraft 2 esport  it’s a good spectators game | ||

In the NA scene, which I'm not as involved in but still now a bit, Astrea's been making a big splash and Future isn't somebody to forget either. PiLiPiLi also just managed to win a ESL America's cup and he seems somebody to watch out for. Nina is in good form as well. As for streamers, Gabe (HeRoMaRinE) streams almost daily, and Lambo, Harstem, uThermal, Elazer, and ShoWTimE stream pretty regularly as well. I heavily recommend to check out Harstem's youtube channel if you haven't already, and uThermal also posts really informative guides. Really almost everybody in the sc2 scene right now is a likable personality, whether you're foreign or Korean. PartinG's streams are absolutely hilarious, and TY and RagnaroK have youtube channels that have english subtitles for some of their videos. | ||

To the point where I (saying this with complete and utter bias) think that if either of them were to be flown to Korea right now they'd win a GSL. Clem and HeRoMaRinE are still incredibly good, and ShoWTimE is also definitely up there for EU scene. MaxPax is a name to watch out for, now and in the future, as he just turned 16 and he's also 6.8k MMR.

Also, Bly, SortOf and Stephano are really good with chance that former best EU pro Stephano make comeback if he is active. This is a pretty good list of the best European players atm. Of course Serral is still better than Raynor, but otherwise accurate  . Like others have said, Serral and Raynor are above rest but especially HeroMarine and Clem are giving them a good fight whenever they meet up. What goes to American scene, it has been mostly all about Neeb, Special and Scarlett, who have been able to perform well in tournaments. There are rising talents there for sure like Astrea, but others can open that scene better than me. Generally the American scene is sadly lot smaller and not that competitive compared to Europe. From Asia we have few names who show up; Chinese player Time has been somewhat a rising star for few years now. He has still room for improvement and when he has a good day he can compete with the best. Pretty inconsistent though. Then there is a legend from Taiwan called Has. His only "tactic" is cheesing, but it can many times bring you very entertaining games. Its very hit or miss though. Welcome to the Sc2 scene ! Its a very fun esport to follow and cheer to. | ||
