Okay we're going to start cracking down on people bashing players for no reason. You don't have to like every player, but at least show some respect. (as of page 402)

I didn't really follow the foreign BW scene, so out of curiosity who was better/tied?


well, if you're gonna say "best foreigner of all time", you have to include all the players from eras before idra. that list is huge, and some are legendary. you also include players like giyom, elky.

furthermore, even when idra was playing, there are players who posted better results in korea (legionnaire for example). and there are foreigners who were as or more feared (mondragon, nony, JF, draco)

he's def up there.. but saying he's "easily the best of all time" is ridiculous


So what you are saying is that you have no definitive way to determine who the best foreigner was, yet criticize Artosis for having a (albeit biased) opinion?

Just let it drop :X

I'm pretty sure he'd be #1 with a possible consideration for Nony, only because Nony beat him in TSL2... I mean if idra played Grr or Elky who do you think would win?


In terms of skill, yeah Idra is the best foreigner to play SC1.

If you go by accomplishments though, Grr and Elky far surpass what Idra did.


So this is sort of like saying "Flash is better then Boxer."

Grr would have annihilated Idra. He was never the best foreigner, at any point.

lol haters.

Match 1: MLG` Shakuras Plateau
(Z)EG.IdrA vs (T)mouz.ThorZaIN

(Z)EG.IdrA spawns as the Red Zerg @7
(T)mouz.ThorZaIN spawns as the Blue Terran @1

2:20
Thorzain with a 2-rax opening, Idra with a hatchery first, and then 12 pool.

3:50
First marines out from Thorzain heads straight to Idra's natural. SCV comes too and drops the bunker. Drones pulled and the dance starts. Spine started.

4:57
Idra putting on a bunker-deny clinic here. Loses a drone and a few lings but kills the SCV making the bunker, forces the cancel and the marines pull back to their base.

CC started at Thor's natural.

6:30
Marines enter the natural and are behind the mineral line. Lings spawn and kill the marines. They do however delay mining for a while and prevent a ling attack as they were tied up.

7:20
Forget that, Idra counterattacks with lings and they start work on the few marines killing them. They also work on the SCVs and MULEs at the natural. They're in the main mineral line now and kill several. A hellion finally pops and kills them but ouch.

10:00
Thorzain with double fact, getting Blue Flame. Idra walls of his natural ramp with Evo Chamber, Baneling Nest and... Spire?

11:00
Idra takes a 3rd at 9. Thorzain sees it with hellions but they do nothing. Tanks and Thors being made. First few mutas are out.

I don't think Elky and Grrrr count. They were some of the best players in the world at the time, but the top foreigners at the end of BW were much better than the early foreign pros at their best. There were other good foreigners at the end of brood war that you could make arguments for as the best foreigners of all time. Ret and Nony come to mind.

Can you honestly say that if IdrA and Elky/Giyom/JF/Mondragon played when each was at their prime, that IdrA would lose? This is the classic Flash vs Nada GOAT argument...



That's a totally different can of beans all together. I don't know why travis took it in that direction myself.

Sorta but at the same time Elky and Grr lived in a completely different world. Koreans didn't dominate. Saying what they accomplished was greater spits in the face of the barriers Idra and the foreign community as a whole faced then
