Jinro, SjoW and DeMusliM is just a few other Terrans that could replace him ez. Maybe not won any lan events but Kas but I feel confident saying he is probably the best EU terran besides Thorzain.. I might have huge euro bias but I feel some people from the US don't really belong in that list. Even though it's almost impossible to see who the best foreigner is I wish someone would host a world championship without koreans just to get a better idea. | ||

He just has korean backround in his blood (similar to other NA players) No he hasn't. It's only a small part of NA players that wants to call him "american" just because NA can barely produce good players and SeleCT happens to be one of few good players on the NA server. Most of the NA players with korean background wasn't born and grew up in Korea like SeleCT. He repped Korea in DoW @ WCG and he uses the korean flag, I doubt he would call himself an american. | ||

HUK on the other hand Still managing to stay in code S at a time when Protoss is really weak in Korea, even as the top Korean protosses fall to mediocraty. He is easily the best foreigner and best Protoss player on the planet. | ||

He is easily the best foreigner and best Protoss player on the planet. fanboy alert i'd say thorzain huk sase and maybe stephano all deserve to be called top foreigners. white ra just hasn't shown too many results as of late, and sen is always a mystery since he doesn't participate much. i'd say that sen would be the best foreigner in the world if he lived in korea though. i'd put my money on huk as of right now. thorzain's still got a lot of room to grow in tvz and tvt. i'd say sase is a lot better than most of you think, i'd say he's top 5 foreigners select is always a dark horse. he's always there but never top. he won NA blizz tourney but that's about it. i'd like to see more of him, he's definitely got the talent. | ||

I find it funny how people say IdrA is on the list when he made it to the Ro8 of the GSL, and was in it for 3 straight seasons. The game may have been newer, but that's still WAY more than any other foreigner except HuK. Thorzain is prob #3, SeleCT #4. | ||

He's also shown very good results on Assembly, IEM Gamescom. And he's polish ![]() But as it is right now, i would go with something like this: Tier 1 Thorzain, Huk, Naniwa, Sen, Ret. Tier 2 Stephano, Mana, Demuslim, Nerchio, Sase, Dimaga, Major, White-ra, Socke and maybe Lucifron Tier 3 Sheth, Morrow, Sjow, Strelok, DDE, Hasuobs, Darkforce, Brat_OK, Goody, qxc, Killer, Kas, Happy, Beastyqt | ||

I understand what you mean... :p But no doubt he's a beast and will show it at ipl. Atm Huk didn't even go through the bracket in all the last LAN he attended, (or lost in the first round like in valencia), i don't know how he stays in code S. But i guess sometimes luck matters ![]() | ||

Jinro have the best (by far, HuK didn't managed to get to ro4) achievements in GSL for a foreigner, but he's slumping hard right now hence he's not on the list (but I would like he gets back to top code S ![]() For now I don't feel Idra as a top foreigner, he didn't put really good result for a long time now, and sometimes really loose in embarrassing ways. By the way he keeps thinking that Protoss is OP vs zerg (O_o). | ||
