Sen and Major not being top 4 is somewhat cringeworthy. This is a "most popular foreigners tournament". Hope the tournament goes well though.

I'll give you Sen, but on what basis is MajOr being below Snute/Bunny/Welmu cringeworthy?

are you referring to Destiny I? He beat MC and violet to advance out of the group stage, and he beat major and kane to finish second.

I mean, that is a pretty awkward way of working that. And it didn't have only Korean invites; major and Snute were both invited.

Still not true? Which one?
Destiny I's "Open qualifiers" were the top 8 from NA, and there were foreigners invited too -_-

Hmm I was wrong, there were 2 foreigner invites, although only Major actually played Huk.

The ladder qualifier was open though, it wasn't a region locked thing.

I will be drafting 8 players from the top of the North American ladder. In order to qualify from there, the following conditions must be met -
You must be playing on an account who's name reflects the person playing it (no barcodes!)
You must be the only person laddering on the account.
You can't hack, cheat, boost, trade wins or commit any other obviously silly shenanigans.
The qualification period for the ladder will end on Sunday, August 3rd, 23:59 EST. At that point I will take the top 8, non-barcoded accounts and invite them to the tournament.


As you can see it wasn't region locked to NA players.

You do realize it's extremely easy for these pools on teamliquid to be botted by people with programming skills? If someone has a player they really want to see, they can get many many votes very quickly (but still not go crazy and make it look obviously suspicious). I know that it can help attract people, because the players will ask their fans to vote, but at the same time it can also be easily abused.

Oh well, will still watch!

Would you please add myiKane to the list, and give him a vote for me? He made top 50 GM on kr recently, and semifinals in Destiny I, not to mention that he's won series against Life, Hero and Suppy recently.

Can we help spread the word and create pressure to get Rob Pardo to replace Browder as head of Sc2? Pardo led the team for broodwar, frozen throne, and wow/BC. We need to make this a thing before LotV development starts. Think about it.

Snute just got beat by another foreigner in WCS who isnt even in this poll....cmon u supposed to win the entire thing this season...u the best foreigner...

so for example, if Snute is not in this top 4 popularity contest, and so must go through the qualifiers for the 2 spots

Snute would be knocked out of the entire "Best Foreigner Hope tournament", and not be counted as BEST foreigner

good thing Snute is popular and in social media and will get invited so he doesnt have to go through the qualifiers for the 2 spots like most the foreigners will have to do right?

I have no doubt that both Vortix and Welmu are top ten, and possibly also Kane, but until they prove themselves again recently, I'd really have to go with Major and Dayshi over them. I don't know where to put Happy and Bunny. I think they're both also top 10, and I think they're probably better than Vortix and Welmu, but I doubt they're better than Scarlett, Major, Snute, and Dayshi. It's just an awkward time for me to try to rank foreigners, because we haven't seen them all in one place very recently. 2 months ago, I would've been very comfortable in ranking them Scarlett, Dayshi, Snute, Vortix, but now I'm not really sure.

Every Finn who doesn't vote Welmu is betrayer. They should be exiled to Sweden. I can't think more horrifying punishment.
