And White-ra has been dominating the Euro ladder etc etc same with other protoss. Most of the foriegnors we see go over to Korea do just fine on the ladder but then have little sucess when it comes to tournaments. Ladder is a very hard and not a good way to measure skill. At this point, accomplishments> random ladder strats Pretty sure nobody except huk has made it into the top 5 of the korean ladder with TWO ACCOUNTS AT THE SAME TIME. It doesnt really matter tho, when he finally gets a chance to play another tournament (GSL Code A, MLG etc) you will see how good he is, until then its fair enough if you want to put someone else as the best protoss.
And I'm guessing you would vouch for HuK based on practice games as well probably ?

He is his teammate and he doesn't play against the European protoss, so I don't think it means to much when he says that Huk is the best foreigner protoss. People normally perform better in practice matches, so you always see players who rate their teammates higher than other players.
I'm really looking forward to foreigner tournaments with the Liquid guys (like MLG).

global challange was in cologne at gamescom, global finals will be in hannover at cebit but there were also 1-2 global challanges at asia (chengdu, dubai, etc...) in the past seasons. it seems like there was a global challange in shanghai in early august which was part of season 5 so i just missed that one.
