Thorzain get's rick rolled by Idra in every match they meet in a tournament. Also Stephano is a bit overrated and I do not think the ESWC is a good reference since they did not use player booths and the casters were casting the game over the loud speaker in FRENCH. Probably the most deserving people and actual best are Naniwa, Huk, and Sen who each have proven it through their consistency in winning and placing well in tournaments. Most of the other people on the list have had times when they were knocked out rather early or by someone who shouldn't of beat them, while Naniwa, Huk, and Sen pretty much make it to round of 8 in every tournament they enter and are rarely caught by an upset.


Thorzain and Idra have played two Bo3's. Thorzain won one of them 2-0, Idra won one of them 2-0.

And you have no proof that Stephano could hear the casters and there are instances of his play that definitely suggest he didn't (for example being completely unprepared for a big warpprism drop by Mana, or for that matter Mana being completely unprepared for a big banelingbust despite the casters yelling, in english, "Baneling Nest", and the crowd going wild at the same time).

This guy is spot on. Incontrol and Tyler have always been consistent. By that, I mean constistently bad.

I think it's kinda wrong to argue on who's the best overall. It's pretty clear to me that the "best foreigner" is not the same player month after month. Obviously, we would think of stephano for october. But he wasn't the best 4 month ago. And he may won't be in 4 month.

Let's just agree on who's the best at the moment, like, if today we set up games between the candidates, who'd win ? And maybe argue over this. And argue again next month. And next month. Even amongst the Korean it's hard to pick ONE truly best player. It once was Nestea, then MC, then MVP, then Nestea again... etc. (These are examples, not necessarly facts.)

It's wrong to try to know who's the best based on one year ago events, or just on 2 days ago games. We should focus on who we think would win if there was a tournament with all these players Tomorrow.

Or maybe i misunderstood the definition of what is a "best foreigner"; and therefore I apologize.

Stephano has best results by any foreign an even most prize money won and he does not train in Korea like Huk does, in terms of skill they are probably on the same level right now but Huk practices like hell in team house, something that Stephano does not ,but Stephanos talent is probably biggest in the whole starcraft 2 scene (yes if he trains in Korea he could be on par even with Nestea, yes i said it!)

or only one piece is eaten and the rest is thrown out after doing coke of 6 hookers' backs.

if so, haypro is a good candidate

It baffles me that people think Kas is more deserving to be on that list than IdrA.

Right now Huk, but if stephano keeps improving he'll be a boss
