Can't decide myself for Naniwa or Stephano as best foreigner title. I am a Naniwa fan. Based on pure results and money earned, Stephano seems the obvious choice. But still, Naniwa feels right-er for best foreigner title. I believe his thirst for being the best is a quality Stephano didn't have (as much), and that really puts him up there for me. | ||

I'm quite a bit sad for VortiX, the guy showed so much promise in 2012, and never got really got that title, even a small one... Also, bit of a typo here: Top 8 WCS EU S3 201e | ||

Good list overall. One could argue about particular placements but it was pretty clear those are players deserving spots 6-10 and honestly it's not that important (or memorable) who's tenth and who's sixth. It will be much more significant for 1-5. | ||

Idra could be easily #1, I was always awed by his mechanics and his ability to look so fluid with his builds even when something went wrong. But then again, he was mentally unstable  I guess it's kinda sad that most of the players are Zergs... | ||

I believe his thirst for being the best is a quality Stephano didn't have (as much), and that really puts him up there for me. What is this? Definitely not Stephanos fault if he didnt care about being the best. Some people like rather being "one of the best" than "the best". Because "the best" is always controversial. Read the other article, it says that online results and money have no influence here. edit: doesnt matter which ranking list, Stephano and Naniwa are always top2. "most dramatical players" or "biggest celebrete players" and whatever else. | ||

It will be much more significant for 1-5. It's a bit of a difference in the opposition. To win Vasacast Invitational, Vortix had to beat SeleCT, ToD, MMA, Stardust and Jjakji, with Jaedong, Oz, Kas, Happy, MaNa and others also in the composition. In Battle in Berlin, Nerchio and Stephano were the two big favorites and Stephano lost to GoOdy in the semifinal, so they didn't play eachother. The field had 8 good european players in it, but it isn't comparable to Vasacast Invitational (trust me, as a GoOdy-fan, I wish it would be, since that would make his second place even more meaningful).

Come on, this one isn't really even close, Naniwa is ahead of her in every relevant aspect. GSL, Premier tournament win(s), h2h, earnings, WCS points (even in Scarletts best year). Can you provide a single argument, why Scarlett should be ahead of Nani? | ||
