Select doesn't train in Korea, he should be on this list (by this logic you can say Huk(possibly idra) shouldn't be I'll agree but that conversation has been had).

I do not want to be rude but I can't understand why SaSe is in this list. I think that White-Ra deserves to be in this poll more than SaSe.

I voted for Thorzain but I think (and hope!) I will be able to call Stephano the best foreigner soon, I just love the way he plays.

SeleCt is from the master race therefore he gets my vote. He has also been playing really good lately, winning the american blizz qualifier and wrecking in his code-a game.

I think on his best day HuK for sure. I'm sad he's traveling so much these days, although he must be having the time of his life :D

why is idra in that list?

sen first then huk!

Because Idra is a really good player and crowd favorite. He just hasn't been doing well as of late.

My vote goes to huk ^^ I dislike thorZain

You do realize he is currently in Korea in Code A right? I believe he's a foreigner in HuK's right but still lol.

Huk is recently not delivering so good results. I think Thorzain has become pretty good. So my vote for Thorzain!

Can't believe people voted for Stephano. He hasn't prove himself yet.


Proof? He is classes above IdrA, he is roflstomping best korean TvZ players, so seriously...u can have opinion that IdrA is best but saying something like that for such a talent and person that PROVEN himself in last 2 months is stupid.

Sase deserves more votes. I wouldn't say that he is the best but he is absolutely ahead of Idra at least.

Agree, the only matchups I'm not that sure about are TvT and PvZ, it's really hard to say who's the best there.

As for the poll, I voted Thorzain as best, IdrA as not belonging on the list and Nerchio as most deserving to be on the list, as evidenced by the fact that I'd give him the title of best Zerg in two of three matchups.

ThorZaIN and Huk are the ones who have consistently shown good results vs Koreans

Well..If you just look at results it's Huk.

However, looking at how the player actually plays the game: Sen, Thorzain, or on rare occasions Ret. Huk is just so hit or miss, I never get the feeling that the guy is truly that solid. Leaning more towards Thorzain at the moment.

I cannot understand how Idra is even considered. Couple of months ago, yeah sure he'd of topped many lists. Recently, however, I don't even think he's top 10.

In online tournaments. All sorts of weird and wonderful things happen in online tournaments which don't happen at LAN's.

Stephano still needs to prove himself at a Dreamhack or MLG like Huk did.

Thorzain's win ratio vs Koreans is not good.

I don't think it's that hard.
In the starcraft-world "foreign" = non-korean.
Select is Korean, borned and raised.

If the poll said, "best foreign-trained", "best in the foreign scene" or something like that I'd agree with you.
If you're not getting better faster than everybody else, you're getting worse.
