It's waaaay too early to be able to accurately figure out who the best foreigner is. With that being said, Thorzain is looking pretty good of late.

Yes, he still does not deserve to be on the list. Beating two Korean players does not change the fact. If he keeps playing consistently like he did in the playoffs (for comparison see his performance in the groups) he will belong on the list. For now he still is not even the best foreign Zerg. Of his 3 matchups only his ZvT belongs to the top foreign play, his ZvP is far behind Ret, Sheth, Morrow and probably also Sen, Nerchio and his ZvZ is worse than Nerchios and probably also Dimaga and Sen.


Correct! I'll bet that he will bomb in the next tournament he enters.

I've noticed a behavioral pattern, a "grack-pattern" if you will; sucks for a long period of time -> gets mad at all the haters and trains like a beast -> wins a tournament -> get laids/parties/celebrates recent victory -> back to sucking -> repeat.

I don't know, he is probably practicing more now and the win might give him better outlook, so hopefully he will keep his form. The thing with him is I think that he has problems accepting that SC2 is much more volatile than SC and losses to somewhat worse players have detrimental effect on his motivation. So it is not that he will not perform well in the next tournament because he won this one, I think the opposite, but if his performance in the next tournament won't bring the results he expects it might put him in the slump again. But frankly this is armchair psychology so just ignore it and let's see MLG and IPL.

Its obvious you are alone then. Most people think having idra is "totally" unreasonable,except this time its actually fact rather than imposing my opinion on others.

DeMusliM and Nerchio should totally be on that list. They are better than at least half of the players included in the poll.

Agreed. I'd put them above Sase, Kas and maybe Stephano (who's better, Stephano or Nerchio?).

I'd give the edge to Stephano but Nerchio is sickly good aswell. It just seems that Stephano is a abit more well-rounded and consistent.

Yep I think they both can be on top of this list. From watching a lot of idra's and sen's streams I can say that idra does not really play any better than sen.

Best tvx MU:

Tvp = Thorzain defintely.
tvz = Kas (his macro is kinda bad, but he has the best tank control imo). putting thorzain here is just stpi.d he just doesn't have the mechanics to beat good zerg players consistently. Him being slow is not a good thing actually. Its just a consequence of his low apm.
tvt = tough to say. guess its close between thorzain, kas and strelok.

Have not seen major play for a few weeks but he isn't far away from the top spot in any of the MU. He could very well claim 1st after i have seen play in blizzcon.

Demuslim has consistently beaten Kas in every TvT they've played in the past few months. His TvT is extremely strong.

Thorzain's form is not really recent considering the game is out just over a year. His form is on the top of foreign scene for around 6 months already.

On the other hand Thorzain actually beat good Korean zergs, something hard to say about Kas.
