He hasn't won anything of significance in SC2 nor has he placed even somewhat highly in any major tournament. There are way better tosses out there. Mostly because incontrol has the brain and determination and skill to do fantastically in korea, unlike ALOT of foreigners who would struggle adapting to the completely different playstyle. Alot of europeans have proven to be inflexible in this regard (except a notable few), and almost all of the north americans as well. Huk was able to adapt through sheer force of will. But Incontrol definitely has the ability to do well, he's been bogged down a ton in foreign events due to being a part of everything, and he's proven when he sits down on focus's on starcraft (for about a week) he is good enough to qualify for the GSL, so why not give him a month and the ability to rock the world with his intelligence. | ||

DeMuslim - Hands down best Terran outside of Korea, only rivaled by Fenix, or TLO(when TLO plays Terran) Sjow - Another extremely good Terran from Europe, he has shown to be the most accomplished player in Europe according to the TeamLiquid database, and he has announced he has plans to go to Korea I believe. Huk results have fallen off compared to tt1s and manas, demuslim is not the best terran, there is about 5-6 terrans in europe, kas, strelok, bratok, naama, sjow etc that are on a similar if not sometimes higher levels, | ||

It is therefore that I believe that every one of the current players deserves a shot over the coming months, across multiple Code A seasons: + Show Spoiler + BRAT_OK (Russia) from team RoX.KIS DaRK.FoRcE (Germany) from team Alternate DeMuslim (Great Britain) from team EG Dimaga (Ukraine) from team mTw Fenix (Peru) from team Fnatic GLaDe / mOOnGLaDe (Australia) from team FXOpen HuK (Canada) from team Liquid Incontrol (USA) from team EG Naama (Finland) from team Mousesports Naniwa (Sweden) from team Empire Sen (Taiwan) from team Fnatic Sjow (Sweden) from team Dignitas Socke (Germany) from team Alternate White-Ra (Ukraine) I would also add MaNa (Poland) from team Mousesports to this list, but considering his young age, it would not be easy to do this for him, which is quite sad. I believe that many of the foreign players that have been often mentioned in this thread (I will just name qxc here representing them all) are not worse players in any way, but in an imaginable Bo5-Round Robin between KR,US and EU servers I would expect only these names to appear in the top 50 in the end. But who am I to judge? I may be wrong. In any case, this thread has already provided some excellent choices. I'm just a fan and spectator Thank you for your efforts, John and GOM | ||

picks: Socke/KiWiKaKi (good tourney players) Sen or Dimaga I'm having a hard time to choose between Naama, Brat_OK and Sjow. Naama is pretty solid and proven himself @ DH, Brat_OK is a beast with crazy tactics. I'm having doubts about Sjow, he seems to destroy his opponents if he wins (which is a lot), but when he loses it's almost always bigtime. I also think his lack of mechanics will pose major problems against the Korean harass tactics. Normally I'd pick DeMuslim as terran, but I feel he hasn't shown a lot these last couple of months. I don't know if he's slacking in practice atm., but if EG sends him to Korea and he'll get the chance to practice there, he won't disappoint. invites by vote are silly anyways, set up a tournament for each region: 4 qualifiers: NA,SEA,Europe and China/TW | ||

TLO is already Code A, he just didn't want to play. But my recommendation would be BratOK, White-Ra, Dimaga, InControl would be cool too | ||
