I don't see how the two are mutually exclusive.

The dreaded EG CURSE.


The dreaded curse that doesn't exist!


Idra used to be the best foreigner.
Huk used to be the best foreigner.
Thorzain used to be the best foreigner.

Stephano is the best foreigner......


Idra was in EG when he was the best (from the beginning). He has literally been with EG since the start of sc2 and has put up great results in them for all of sc2 (this year he obviously isn't). Curse doesn't exist, he went in a slump not because he stayed in EG.

Huk well let's be honest once 2 base aggression kinda got figured out he's been off the map.

Thorzain I can't ever think of a time where he was counted as the best Foreigner (one of the best sure but absolute best not sure he was ever considered the best).

Stephano is right now the best foreigner and I don't see that changing.

To throw in another member they got Puma after his NASL season 1 victory and Puma under the EG name has had GREAT results for a lot of sc2, good MLG runs, won Season 2, IEM iirc and has had great tournament runs. He hasn't been playing so hot lately but that isn't because he's still on EG.
When I think of something else, something will go here

"According to ESFI sources" Sorry but that's garbage style news. Nobody here is surprised so we all accept this immediately - myself included. But as a general way of conducting the delivery of news, that kind of crap does not cut it.

Why go to medical school Stephano? Just get EG to overpay you for 5 years and you've got yourself retirement at 24.


Err you need more then 500k to retire lol.


lol why are you guys talking about retiring... Stephano isn't even old enough to drink in the United States and you guys are acting like he's 50 or something haha.

Congrats to Stephano. Based on his body of work he deserves it more than any other foreigner in SC2 history. Let's hope the money doesn't make him complacent.

NaNiwa is the best foreigner until Stephano goes to Korea and proves otherwise.

This will only be a good pick-up for EG if Stephano shows more dedication to EG's team-league matches than he did to Millenium's. Personally, I'm pretty sceptical about his level of dedication.

I'm sorry but just because Naniwa made ro8 in GSL twice does not make him the best foreigner. Especially when he goes and completely flames out of other tournaments right after.

Naniwa isn't the best foreigner at all, have you seen his tournaments lately? Dropping out first round in iem is inacceptable if he wants the title "best foreigner"

Reputable site who has never lied or written exaggerated news.
One of the first to break news about RGN disbanding, the end of Check6 and untangled the Gwin drama bullshit?

Not really garbage style. Maintaining good sources, without revealing name, but giving detailed numbers.
