Naniwa gets a new spot from Anaheim I spose, so he is staying. Think Thorzain said he was going back to Europe again.

Naniwa was going to stay even if he didn't get a new Code A spot since he's there to practice but nice if we get to see him in GSL also. ^_^

After this, Dignitas will have arguably the strongest lineup for foreign SC2 in the world. EG triggering the "arguably" there.

Mouz has won the only major team tournament, Evil Geniuses master's cup. It should be noted that EG didn't even make it out of the group stages in their own tournament. In the new season, thus far Mousesports hasn't even lost a single game and are currently scoring 8-0.

As such, they have to be considered the best foreign team. Not to mention the fact that they are a true foreign team without any Korean players.


I would say Team Liquid is the strongest squad at the moment even without Huk. Watch TL in the GCPL and see how they do.
Don't mind me

  • According to the Liquidipedia, the top non-koreans are (in order):
    (P)HuK, (P)NaNiwa, (T)IdrA, (T)SjoW, (Z)Ret, (Z)SLush, (Z)Sheth, (P)KiWiKaKi, (P)Socke, (Z)HayprO, (T)TLO, (T)SeleCT
  • (P)HuK is already in Code S.
  • (P)NaNiwa, (T)ThorZaIN, and (T)Fenix are already in Code A spot from MLG Columbus.
  • (Z)Sheth forfeited his Code A spot in July.
  • (T)IdrA, (Z)Ret, (Z)SLush, (P)KiWiKaKi, (T)TLO, (Z)HayprO have all publicly stated (or already refused previously) that they won't go to Korea with a Code A.
  • Therefore, at best you're looking at (T)SjoW, (P)Socke, (T)mOoNan, and (T)SeleCT.
  • After those four, the players are: (P)CrunCher, (P)Wannabecool, (P)iNcontroL, (P)Tyler, (P)White-Ra.


Wrote this after MLG Anaheim. A few things changed since then. (T)IdrA confirmed to return to Korea, so he may be taking a spot. (P)NaNiwa , (T)ThorZaIN and (T)Fenix all got knocked out in first round, so they may need free spots again for another shot.

I think NaNiwa said that he will take code A spot from Anaheim, I doubt IdrA will take his since he said that he wouldn't go until oct. So I'd guess that Nani, Sjow and one more will take the spots, depending on who wants it. Ret has been on a roll lately so maybe he got motivation to go to korea and get some good training done. Dunno otherwise, I think Haypro is up for it if he gets it.
♥ ThorZaIN.

Go Sjow! Whenever I look at his play, I feel like he has so much room for improvement and he's already such a good player which is saying a lot!

Somebody should change Idra from being terran as he was to zerg. This is SC2 now.

The first thing that came to my mind upon reading this was if/how badly the Korean street fighter intro voice will mangle his name. Looking forward to it and more talented foreigners in the GSL :D

Someone tell GOM to fix the schedule for foreign Code A games now. Seriously they're at 6 am in Sweden -.- If all the players are from Sweden why can't they move them to later/earlier T_T
