Just because ? :|
You Forget he is still in the Code S , Advanced past his group demolishing the competition....Make no Doubt about it , Dreamhack and homestory are not easy tourneys to win...He is undoubtedly the best foreginer Right NOW

Huk won dreamhack and sen lost to july at dreamhack. Didn't huk beat july then? Huk winning dreamhack and homestory is more impressive than sen getting third in nasl.

With all do respect, concerning the previous open bracket that TSL Puma went through, arguing solely on actual substance:
There were a crap ton of koreans in it, koreans that could have easily destroyed every foreigner, in the main season. Puma in no way in the previous Open Bracket had an easier time then every other player in the main season. I think the Open Bracket was complete in a 24hr period? with no preparation for players in between brackets? But PUMA made it through all of it, and then through everyone in the top 16.
Maybe in concept and practice, under general situations, the open bracket is unfair or flawed. But the players who were actually in the Open Bracket with PUMA, that bracket was very hard and in no way was an easier road for PUMA. And wasn't an easier road than the road that everyone in the main-season/playoffs had, at least not this time.

MC lost to Huk in homestory so does that mean Huk is better then MC? you win some you lose some. thats why there is no best foreginer but a group of foreginers that are good. huk is probably the best Canadian sc2 player and foreign protoss, sen is the best foreign(hes still asian so idk if he can be considered foreigner) zerg. and terren? who knows they are all over the place.

You obviously didn't watch Huk demolish MC, Idra, July, Moon, Naniwa, and everybody else associated with Dreamhack and Homestory Cup. MC got HANDED by Huk. So yes, he can beat MC, Puma, and Sen. I'm willing to bet he wins 2-0 against MC in the Code S round of 16 as well. Sen is EXCELLENT. but Huk has been showing amazing results recently and you're a fool to think he's not the best foreigner

As others have said: Dreamhack and HSC3 were NOT "small lans" look at who HuK had to beat, especially for HSC3 and you'll see why people consider him the best foriegner, his run was SUPER tough to get there.
Also, MMA is STILL an absolute beast. He STILL has only lost to some of the best players out there and rightfully earned MVP for two GSTLs.
HuK and Idra are pretty 50-50 lately, with the last win being HuK's at HSC.

#2 can beat #1 but won't be #1 because he can't beat #3,#4 and #5, but #1 can.
That's how rankings work, think about it.

Idra was the best player in the world day one of the last MLG by your standards. You drink the kool aid too quickly. Huk only now has a .500 record in the GSL and has a losing record against idra. The point is it's about a body of work and no what you've done the last month or two.

I'm not saying I'm 100% sold on HuK being the best foreigner, but the ignorance in this post is overwhelming.
1) Dreamhack is not a small Lan 2) MMA and Ace dropped out of Code S while HuK is doing well in Code S 3) Idra doesn't 'beat' HuK, HuK actually beat Idra last time they met. 4) http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players

Getting top 3 at the NASL is not a bigger achievement than getting 1st place at Dreamhack and Homestory Cup.

Without FF or Storm it's GG for gateway armies. But really it's not so easy. You have to build lots of ghosts and drop them perfect on correct units. You mess up you don't have enough rax troops and get rolled over.
Also don't short sell PuMa's outstanding drop play strangling MC on resources and keeping him at home.
