It will turn into a popularity contest more than anything, thus Idra will win as he has many fans. Had you put Destiny in there he would be top 3-5 easily.

I voted Sen, no explanation should be needed there

Is it bad that I don't recognize immediately which country Mana's flag represents?

Is it worse that I wouldn't recognize immediately Stephano's, Dimaga's, Kas', and Ret's flags either if it weren't for SC2?

If you were to walk down the street in the US and ask everyone who the president is you would get at least a few who didn't know it was Obama. You'd actually get quite a few.

I agree with your answer though I lean more towards Huk.

Very interesting topic!

Also, you should have included Destiny in the main poll just to troll everybody and see how many fanboy votes he would get
memes are a dish best served dank

can we please stop labeling select as a foreigner?
he is born and raised in korea, and to think of him as american is just absurd.

if nestea moves to the us now will he be the best foreigner? no he is born&raised as a progamer there just like select. i rly wonder why all of you seem him like a foreigner when it is just absurd in reallity.

he was at least a full time KOREAN progamer in wc3 and ONLY went to the us to avoid military service aka he was OLD when he moved.

Although I love this type of polls, i'd say a good 30% of the votes are popularity votes. Idra above sen? yea right but popularity does that.


not just popularity but also shortsighted, skill can only be determined by looking back (in case of starcraft 2 volitility) not by looking current moment(wins and losses).

Same reason why both SeleCT and HuK participated in the Blizzcon NA qualifier.

SeleCT is Korean who lives in America... and he represents NA.

But HuK is Candiamerican who lives in Korea... and he also represents NA.

Hm...

My head hurts. I just stopped caring about it. Less headaches. I suggest you do the same.

Yes, very bad. Everyone should know Poland.

And Sen's flag is Chinese Taipei.

why is SaSe on that list? I guess I don't know many of his achievements other than a Code A invite.

i guess americans are bad with flags in general because they dont watch football(soccer) that much

OT: i think idra dont belong on that list either...but since there is only one vote i pick sase.
