Well, this is essentially a popularity contest, and Sen has a huge followings even though they are not very vocal on TL.

Looking forward to Sen claiming the best non-Korean title... He has been in the conversation (constantly one of the best non-Koreans) for that title many years...

He can claim to be the best foreigner only if in this tournament play the best foreigners.

What do you mean with high? You mean low, right? That's why this happend, and I pointed it out earlier in the thread.

I still think any other low voted player could have pulled this off as well, check out how many followers they have on twitter and just half that amount would have earned them the top spot in this voting. I think most players didn't just write about this on twitter, in their fanclubs and so on.

Grubby 51 xxx
Vortix 7 858
Welmu 3 735

And about Sen, well the asian esport scene is probably huge. And I am not gonna write he didn't deserve the spot, most on that list deserves a chance to play for the best-non-korean-title imho (if only the list of invited players where bigger, though I don't know yet how many will be accepted to the open brackets so that could fix the problem I guess).

To Madals: gl gl with the tournament, I will watch for sure. I so wish there was a way to donate anonymously (not just to this tournament, but in general) then I would try to contribute as well.

Are you familiar with the phrase, "Your reputation precedes you"?

Do you think Idra is not a nice guy as well?

Subbing via my twitch would only show a twitch user name. Donating via payal would only show your name (which, if you leave a comment I wouldn't share anywhere).

IndieGoGo also offer an anonymous method too

This was a popularity contest primarily and everyone knew that.

I didn't, I'm pretty sure this thing is called The Foreign Hope.

Hoping for some more race diversity since it's mostly zerg already but it would be kind of a shame if Snute didn't qualify

Snute's already in. Mana announced he was giving his spot to him because Snute was next in line for an invite and he felt Snute deserved it more. Check the last page if you want the tweet/post

since all the games will be played on the EU server...

hows the lag from Australia, China, Taiwan to EU server?

EU players might be getting an advantage when playing non-koreans from not EU...? just wondering

Snute and Bunny not being in the top 4 is questionable.

Also a very nice gesture Mana!
