He won a kespa cup of a single matchup + a lucky bracket, using a meta that no one was familiar with, and soon after it became standard he stopped being so good. I mean Neeb has been amazing but he hasn't overcome many of the past (or even current) legend foreigners just yet. I'm really not trying to bash Neeb because he's great, but those acheivements sound a tad more impressive than they really are. Like its amazing to get ro4 at WESG you say? a cup stacked with legends like Zerghamdi and Drager? | ||

I haven't seen any other foreigners do that in a series. Elazer and Nerchio took out Solar, but ZvZ is another beast. | ||

On the original list, I feel like Ret has been overlooked. His list of accomplishments : Assembly Winter 2011 Champion MLG Columbus 2011 top8 Europe Battle.net Invitional 2011 Champion Dreamhack Winter 2011 top4 IEM Sao Paulo 2012 top4 Redbull Lan 1 2012 Champion Dreamhack Stockholm 2012 top4 HSC V Top8 NASL season 2012 season 3 top4 IEM World Championship 2013 top8 IEF 2013 3rd place WCS Season 2015 S2, top16 as well as being already older when sc2 came out, concistenty over 2 titles (bw, sc2), and years of playing at the top foreign lvl, results spanning from 2010 to 2015. Obviously had a huge dip later in his carreer, but I still think the results speak for themselves, would be in my top10-15. | ||

And no going through an easy bracket in Kespa cup is not as big of an accomplishment as you make it out to be. Nerchios results were only against foreigners which isn't very impressive (compared to the other players on the list.) In KesPa Cup and blizzcon he got crushed. And Beating Zest, Rogue and Stats certainly isn't easy. | ||

I think Nerchio overall one of the strongest foreigners, also showtime is on this list for me. Because it is a lot of harder to rock nowadays than at the early stage where koreans had not all built up to these monster macro machines that they are now. | ||

Why are people arguing about 2016-2017 foreigners from a list that was designed in 2015? | ||

That seems like a pretty hard claim to make, would it have been possible for Serral, or someone else in his era to pass Stephano, or is it more of an idea of the highest skill era that that only old SC2 matter? | ||
