I think White-Ra can beat any T if he can get away with his greedy openings.  But no.. not really. It worked once against MMA and right after that the Koreans learned what he does and countered hard. | ||

They have the most unfulfilled potential and the best environment to fulfil it (except Stephano, who is simply a French Flash, but it would be a shame if he never goes to Korea to reach his potential). He is a French Grrrr. Would be a shame indeed. | ||

I still think the title for best foreigner is too close to decide based on few tournies Ya, I feel like people are all for stephano now after ipl3. Obviously he is a great player. And obviously one of the best foreigners. But maybe we should wait for a couple more lans before we set everything in stone. Everyone is acting like Stephano being the best foreigner is a done deal now. | ||

Perhaps with lower end code a and b Koreans, but the top still just seems as big as ever. | ||

Ret took a serie out of a korean, Idra took down ARtist who is clearly not a top korean, and that's it. All the other foreign vs korean victories were Stephano's. | ||

Using IPL as a way to judge Korea v. Foreigners is not a good idea, in fact it's quite stupid because there are so many Koreans that are leagues ahead of most of the foreigners and didn't attend this tournament. Stephano is so ridiculously good. He just understands the game, it's amazing. However, I feel that he lacks the dedication to become the best of the best, after all he did say he plans to quit SC2 in about a year (he's just using it as a way to make some money, not that I'm judging. It's his choice). But, if he continues to receive a lot of fan support and if he wins these big tournaments he might stay a bit longer and pour a little bit more of his soul into it. It was stated before, and I agree, there should be a new poll. A lot has changed Foreigners fighting! | ||
