HuK and Idra are mediocre in Korea(Both top foreigners though...)
Demuslim haven't seen enough of really, though from what I've seen ehhh mid tier foreigner.
JYP Scary as fuck

What? Huk was mediocre in Korea? lol...

Yea he was and IS still mediocre in Korea.... in Code S? No, did he do anything special while he was in Code S? No he is mediocre...

Sounds harsh, especially seeing as I am a big HuK fan but he is nowhere near top tier in Korea.

Yea maintaining status in the best league in the world is definatly mediocre.


It can be and is a case by case basis....see Kyrix/Ensnare to name a couple.

Is EG the #1 foreign team? Hmm. JYP said so, but i'm not sure.


Ehhhh, I actually like Liquid's two Koreans over EG's. Zenio and Hero are more solid than Puma and JYP.

JYP has the potential to be the best Protoss I've ever seen, but right now all you have to do is send a Terran and he's fucked. Also it's not like he didn't have good TvP practice partners at TSL; Polt is unstoppable in the match-up and Alive is really good at it as well. Slayers' worst match-up is TvP; MMA, Ganzi, Ryung, etc. all struggle against Toss.


JYP has problems with Korean terrans, but what about the foreign tournaments? The foreign terrans who could put up a fight are few, and this makes the foreign scene perfect for JYP.

As for EG being the top foreign team, one could certainly say that, and have very convincing arguments behind it. But Mouz really impressed me in the IPL Team Arena, beating Slayers, colMVP, and Thorzain even all-killed QIM. If only Mouz, Liquid, and EG would all compete in the GSTL...

It was just a silhouette. Usually when companies or products use a silhouette to say something new is coming, the actual silhouette isn't the player or thing that is coming.

thanks for your input...

Nice pickup for EG. Hopefully the rest of the team will be able to play with him often even cross server.

JYP has a baller zerg, a baller protoss and a baller terran to practice with in EG in Korea, I doubt he will be playing a lot with the others to be honest.


Yeah totally ignoring that he will be living in the Slayers House - possibly the best practice environment in the world..regardless of EG

What do you consider "anything special"? He stayed in Code S and beat some big names. If your criteria of not sucking is basically round of 4 or higher in GSL then your list of players who suck must be pretty huge.

When did I EVER say he sucks? WTF? I said he is Mediocre in Korea and one of the best foreigners...... how does that equal me saying he sucks? seriously......

HuK and IdrA have done as much as PuMa. Especially in GSL. I don't know how you can call 2 players that have consistently been Code S when they've played in Korea 'mediocre'. Whilst one that hasn't even qualified for Code A yet 'Scary as fuck'.


HuK has done nothing in code S and is currently not in Code S...
IdrA was in Code S way back when, we shall see what he can do now....

PuMa has won back to back NASL
JYP is in Code S and one of the best up and coming protoss players in Korea....

If Idra makes it out of his group or HuK can make it back into code S I may change my opinion but as of right now I seem them as mediocre in Korea.


IdrA has won IEM, IPL, Assembly, MLG, placed ro8 code S and won a bunch of other tournaments.
HuK has won Dreamhack, MLG twice, Homestory placed ro8 code S and won a bunch of other tournaments.

Both have taken down some of the best players in the world. The likes of MC, Bomber and NesTea.

How is that mediocre? Some people.

Even Idra himself said competition at IEM was meh. IPL was ez mode. he placed ro8 in Code S so long ago the game wasn't even developed enough for their to be a skill difference.... same with HuK's first MLG win.

Taking a couple games off top players here and there does not equal being a great player... winning consistently does and neither of them can say that they have.

As I said they are easily some of the best foreign players, but in Korea skill wise they are mediocre....


I love how you completely skip over the tournaments where they had to face strong competition, and focus on the negatives.

I'm done derailing the thread arguing about a statement that is so blatantly either just really ignorant or dumb. Maybe both. Congratz JYP and EG.

I left them out because yes they did win against good competition, I'm not taking that away from them... As I said they are some of the best foreigners, just merely said they are only mediocre compared to the talent pool in Korea....

And yes Gratz to EG and JYP will be interesting to see if/when he comes to MLG's etc.
