Well I doubt NO foreigner will get in. Considering the top players are foreign.

IdrA alone is close to definite, and anyone else is a bonus but still a strong possibility.

Not like there were many koreans in there. :p
But yeah, he will get into it. I'd love to see all the Liquid members in there too and they definitely have their chances.

Idra and TLO are as good as top Koreans.

Pre-balance-patch: definitely TLO in top 64

Thought it was a BW tourney at first, then I realized of course its a SC2 tourney. I would be surprised if foreigners didn't get in.

Wow, "a" non-Korean? That made this poll ridiculously easy. I'm sure at least one - with TL's support - will manage to at least qualify. The real question is:

Poll: How many foreigners will manage to qualify?

2-3 (218)
 
44%

3-5 (115)
 
23%

5-10 (40)
 
8%

None (35)
 
7%

64 :p (35)
 
7%

1 (30)
 
6%

>10 (23)
 
5%

496 total votes

Your vote: How many foreigners will manage to qualify?

(Vote): None
(Vote): 1
(Vote): 2-3
(Vote): 3-5
(Vote): 5-10
(Vote): >10
(Vote): 64 :p

I think there will be a lot of "good" foreign players in the GSL but in the top 64 there wont be too many, IdrA, TLO , jinro and nazgul are my top 4 picks. 5th being Tyler but he needs to get his priorities straightened out IMO

If what they say is true, and the Koreans, in general, aren't approaching SC2 as much as foreigners, then its quite obvious foreigners are going to qualify out of sheer number and luck.

However, if Koreans suddenly transitioned to SC2, then that's a different story. Foreigners stand no chance against Koreans who's average APM (noninflated) is above 250, no matter how much they've practiced in months.

Probably TLO or IdrA. I really hope TLO, cause he is a nice guy (I really don't like cocky, immature IdrA)

idra does not count as a typical non-korean player in my eyes because he lives and trains with koreans.

IdrA for sure, and I think TLO has a real shot. Other than that though I think it's a bit up in the air. I mean I would love for players like Huk and White-Ra (or, I'm sorry, Duckload-Ra) to get in but I'm not sure how they'll do.
If the quarter was in your right hand, that would've been micro

Yea, we can get in.
There will be a few heroes.
The game is so new.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

Depends on who participates. I am positive Idra will get in, but he has been under a Korean system for a long time now, it should be a given. Nony has the talent, but I haven't heard if he is going to try to qualify. White-ra is sort of in a slump and Dimaga has a lot of trouble facing terran. Outside of Idra the only person I see getting in without too much trouble is Sen.
