Atm. Stephano, MaNa, Huk, Sen are the top foreigners.

Combination of Sen, Huk, Stephano, Nani and Tzain. Those are the top 5 imo.

Why is Thorzain 1st and Huk 2nd ? How many tournaments Thorzain has won ? Only TSL. Huk has won 2 MLGs, Dreamhack, Homestorycup and hes in code S.

Stephano has done very well but from my understanding he has yet to beat a player of Bomber or MC's caliber in a tournament and has lost games to slightly lower players like Kiwikaki and just recently NightEnD in the ESWC pool play, his ZvP in general seems a bit weak to put him among the other two top foreigners, but we'll see as he gets more opportunities to prove the extent of his abilities.


How can you list Idra and Huk over Stephano when none of them have won 2 major lans in his last 3 lans. I would say they are equal. Maybe stephano is slightly ahead. The guy won more money in the last 2 weeks then any other foreigner since release

But its hard to say Idra,Stephano,Huk all 3 are amasing

Select doesn't belong in the list because he is not a foreigner. but, if you consider him to be one, then HuK does not belong
In theory, practice and theory are the same. In practice, they are not

I'm laughing at the majority of people thinking IdrA doesn't even deserve to be on this list, yet Kas is on there. IdrA goes through one slump, beasts it up at a tourney, and everyone immediately "remembers" he's on par with korean zergs.
Hey! How you doin'?

The reason Thorzain was at the top of list is because the poll was taken just after his great performance at DH, and after a month in Korea. Right now it's pretty clearly between Stephano, HuK and Idra.


...I wish we could get poll options to display votes over time as some kind of graph, would be interesting to track how things tend to trend....



The graph and, say, weekly voting could be very cool!

As we could see by Stephano's example, just in two weeks so many things can change

Lol, perhaps because just a couple months ago HuK HAD won 2 of the last three major lans and NOW he's won MLG Providence too.

Dunno if I'd consider idra to be on the same tier yet but he's close, and yeah stephano is amazing too
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I'm curious why Thorzain is rated so highly, especially against HuK. HuK has so many more success in tournaments, and he's in code S. Not that Thorzain is bad, just that I think he's being overated in this poll. Perhaps some people still angry that HuK left for EG?
Don't take me seriously, I'm no Pro. Neither are you.

By top koreans in ESWC you mean MKP? I wouldn't even put him in the top 5 Terrans anymore. Sorry but you should of looked at the roster before you pluralized Koreans. It should of been separated from IPL all together.

Idra, Thorzain, and MC also went to ESWC, and Stephano ended up winning it. That means that Stephano is better than Thorzain and Idra, who along with Huk, are probably the only contenders to position of being the best foreigner. MC and MKP are both top Koreans, so therefore the word "Koreans" is correct.

All three went to MLG Orlando and Idra and HuK placed higher.

See how easy it is to spin that?

Rofl what? Thats a terrible comparison. It's not like Stephano knocked out Idra and HuK.

Idra and Huk placed higher then Stephano at MLG, guess they are better than Stephano.

Well its hard to say ^^ In direct confrontations I think huk often lost to thorzain and stephano. But clearly in terms of tournament results and in the GSL, he's had more sucess than them.

As much as i love select, he is a step behind Huk. and even Sen who is omgwtfbbq recently.

So in short. Huk -> Sen -> Select.

Idra is close behind but i hatez him anyways >.> although alot less since his BM is now becoming almost truth. Everyone is starting to look worse then him ^_^

MLG was before ESWC. Idra and Huk were better than Stephano then, but now, he is better, since he placed higher at the most recent tournament. It should also be noted that ESWC is a MUCH bigger tournament that MLG, with more than 5x the prize money for 1st place.
