The fact that Ret is so low yet IdrA is so high is pretty disgusting. xD

Ret/Huk/Thorzain are PROBABLY the best of their respective races. Although it is incredibly easy for me to replace Ret with Stephano/Nerchio/Sen and Huk with Naniwa/Sase/(maybe MaNa). Thorzain is probably the best Terran though

Both idra and ret have more results than Stephano and Nerchio, results matter more than ladder stomping

Sen is going to get worse because he is in Taiwan, no longer playing KR servers and will get worse very quickly.

Clarification : He is focusing on Taiwan esports and tourneys, he is not even top 200 on KR/TW ladder and doesn't practice as much there.

Huk is not a foreigner. Get it right.

*Edit- If you consider Huk a foreigner then you can't consider Select a foreigner.

We don't really have a best foreigner, because non is consistent enough to be dominent.

I guess HuK would be close atm.

i suggest everyone who's interested to watch stephano play first person on his stream, once you watch him for a while every other foreigner seems so slow in comparison

he's tearing up the koth fxo right now... again

How can Select and HuK both be included? One is a foreigner, and one is a Korean. No matter which person you think is the Korean, that's how it is.

Huk, because he is the only one who is playing Code S and he also managed to avoid the Up&Down-Matches. I would only change my opinion if another player will get into Code S and have some good results. Or maybe if a foreigner smashing everyone at MLG, but this very unlikely.

To all the people saying: "Why is Idra on the list?"

During the beta he was one of the best players worldwide. In the early seasons of GSL he qualifed for everyone of them. (Or almost all ^_^ can't remember) Afterwards based on his preformance he was placed in Code S. After returning to the USA he might have not dominated the foreign scene with some huge result's but he did place high in every MLG. Also some of his games really stand out (going 2-0 in MLG pool play against MC). The biggest problem with Idra is however in my opinion that he sometimes just lacks the right staight of mind ( gging to early). However he has shown that when he is on top of his game he can take serie's against the best of the best (korean's) in the world and therefor in my opinion at least deserve's a spot on the list.

Also i am not an Idra fanboy... i probably hate him more then the average TL user
(sorry for horrible English spelling and grammar)

Abit dissapointed that White-ra, Strelok nor Morrow is on the list.

Morrow har probably won more tournaments than any sc2 player to date, together with strelok.

He is by far the top 2, if not the best zerg in europe(tied with dimaga)

Has had so many top placements and huge wins. Don`t know how the process of ditching morrow for dimaga went, but could throw them both up there imo. The more the better.

Players like SaSe and kas are still super underrated, really sad that they gain so little recognition, oh well.

Decent list overall I would say, and the missing list is turning out quite good, except morrow not getting enough votes.

OT: still between naniwa and huk imo

LAN performance is what matters. He no doubt has the potential to do amazingly well and he'll get the opportunity to prove himself soon enough.

Polls like this are quite limiting.. as a few are worthy contenders for my vote. Idra definatly wins the not deserving vote tho, way to much publicicy not enough good performances.

Wow, stephano? You people are worse than artosis in buying into forum hype or overreacting to one game, bet half the people voting for him have only even seen play him once or twice. At least wait till he attends a MLG or something to declare him the best foreigner.. Lan is what ultimately matters most for a pro gamer when measuring skill, some players own on ladder or smaller online tourney but suck in a lan tournament.

Select should be above Idra if this is based at all on current skill, rest of poll looks somewhat reasonable.

I consider Nerchio the best. A bit surprised he isn't listed, White Ra is also missing.
