they are all sick nerd ballers in my book really good players and nice guys.
but to be honest. nobody stands out enough in the foreigner scene to be considered best. skill of a player is too complicated than to just look at results or recent tournament games so im not sure what this topic is about xD

Poll:The person who the community likes the most at this point.

haha yes indeed. altough i think white ra would win that easily if he was on the list

It's not about his personal life which was set in stone before Starcraft even existed, it's about which scene he trained in.


With this logic HuK/Jinro are Korean and TLO is Swedish... SeleCT IS Korean /end!

Idra may not be the best atm, but he has certainly been the most consistent since release. He is at his lowest right now but id still say he is top 5 and has been top 5 through out all of sc2, I dont think any other non korean(i hate the term "foreigner") could say the same. So Idra is the best of all time but id say Huk or tzain is the best right now, although Huk has been hurting him self lately with all the traveling i still went with him.

also think Nerchio and Morrow deserve to be on this list

Actually if this poll was 7 months ago, 100% jinro. Idra has never been the best foreigner.


Naw, Idra still imo. Idra still had the edge with much better results back then. Not to mention he and many other zerg had to contend with a lot of bullshit tournament maps.

Idra has been in the toilet recently, with the last time he looked good being...MLG Columbus? However, to say he was never the best foreigner is just flat out wrong. I'm not really a huge idra fan but he should be credited with being the best foreigner throughout the beta and well into the early parts of 2011. He won an MLG, beat tester and won King of the Beta, and qualified for every GSL open. Probably would've still held on to his code S spot for awhile if he hadn't gone back to the US.

I agree with Thorzain being top! However, where's Socke on that list? I don't think he's the best, but I do think he is quite good.

yea its like people just vote who they like the most...

sen is probably the best, I havent seen him loose games since like the NASL finals, T-zain showed that he can compete with koreans playing a good series against DRG, and stephano tearing it up lately and ofcourse huk (who hasn't realy dont that great lately)

Noone else is even close

IdrA for sure.

He achieved so much in GSL, MLG, Blizzcon and NASL.
Can't deny his overall knowledge of the game and skill.

Select has always been considered American. He lives and practices on NA server. He just has korean backround in his blood (similar to other NA players)

It happens when you have a community poll. It becomes a popularity contest and the results end up being biased.

As much as IdrA has struggled in recent months Kas deserves to be on the list more then he does? Stephano is really better then sen? tons of questionable choices but its the nature of the arena.

Select's a foreigner because he lives and practices in NA. Even if he's Korean, he doesn't practice in Korea (at least not before) so I think he counts as a foreigner.

HuK and Jinro I would count as Koreans now. Nani and Thorzain has been in Korea for like a month? Not enough time yet in my opinion.

He is Korean, was born in Korea, speaks Korean as his native language, considers himself Korean and lives and works in Korea.

By your odd logic, SaSe is chinese, since he played from China for four years.

Just give it a rest, I know some US people are desperate for any success but trying to convince people that Select is American won't help your cause.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

How can Kas be on this list? The man can seriously not win on lan events for some reason and should definitly not be on this list.

Jinro, SjoW and DeMusliM is just a few other Terrans that could replace him ez.

EDIT: And also, SeleCT doesn't practice much on NA. What I have read and heard he trained alot on the KR server from USA before he went to Korea. So using the "he practice on NA" thing doesn't really count in his favor lol.
