The best non korean is Elky because he has the skill and he managed to stay competitive in Korea for the longest. People like Sven and Slayer were very talented, but they didn't stay competitive long enough to be the greatest.


By that logic wouldn't you vote for giyom?

sven was one arrogant fuck back in the day...and he didn't try in 70% of his games. that is why people don't like him and why you have a rep of "tsu raping sven"

it's a close call, but I vote for Elky because he is a better player.
Human teleportation, molecular decimation, breakdown and reformation is inherently purging. It makes a man acute.

Sorry thats simpley not true. Elky wasnt the one to stay the logngest time competitive in korea. That was definitely Grrrr... . It seems just, that this was before your time.

Grrrr... made around 6 X More money with bw then Elky.
He dominated the bw scene 2 years. And he is simpley the best non korean gamer ever.

Or how do u want to find the best without objectivity ?
He won the most $$$
He is the best
Or do u want to let count single games ? Maybe even online ?
Fergot it. The poll shows, that at least some people here have a clue.

then who was it who posessed his hands and forced him to write on his website "there is no gamei launcher for mac".

and best zerg of all time? has he ever won ANY money ?
people are similar in nature. its the experience of life that makes them so different.

This poll, as many have pointed out is a fairly simple choice being Grrr as the #1. No one else even compares to achievments and time at the top.

Although, my personal preference leans towards Slayer becuase I think he would have been very impactful on the pro gaming scene if he didn't have to serve in the military.

Originality doesn't count for much if you can't win anything like NTT and Tsunami.

Yes Grrrr... is easy choice for #1

Yosh #1 1v1 and 2v2 wgt(saft sven nazgul still played at this time I believe) and 2000+ gamei at around the same time is pretty damn impressive

too bad he got banned from final tourney for abuse lol~ but he was still goodsu!

Tsunami was a great gamer. But nothing more.
Sven was a great gamer, but i dont know.. i think Slayer is enough. Why Slayer and Sven ? I think some gamers are missing. But there is no doubt that in overall Grrrr... is the best non korean gamer of all time.

I think Blackman instead of Sven. And Fisheye or others instead of Tsunami


Why slayer? He was one of the best players in the world when he had his peak of gosuness...in this poll only grrr can match that
yes

GIYOM the Charismatic Toss (547) 30%

NTT the chinese style SCV maker (293) 16%

SAFT the pride of the swedes (293) 16%

Sunglasses ELKY the Desperate Terran (282) 15%

Boxerless SLAYER the non korean (232) 13%

Tidal wave zerg TSUNAMI style (137) 7%

SVEN the viking (45) 2%

so far, I think results are pretty fair
Boxer will be in the US on the 16th - perhaps to give advice to South Korean President Roh, who is on state visit to the US this week, on how to handle any surprise tank pushes by North Koreans
