Ever since the StarCraft II Beta most of the known foreign names transitioned - but this doesn't mean there's nobody left. Quite a lot new players made themselves a name in the past two years. The ICCup staff tries to introduce the top foreigners and best ranked ladder players to those who might've not been following the events closely. We have now, with the help of Cia[AoV] six interviews so far - with more coming up.
The list includes Napoleon, an oldschool player and race picker from Finland, Babo, a Chilean 2on2 player, eonzerg, aka. the Coach from Spain, Largo, one of reps.ru's news editors and Russia's best Terrans, Bakuryu, the moustache Zerg and WCG 2010 Germany participant - and last but not least Astro, aka. DraW, a Canadian Toss with many smurfs. We tried to ask both standard questions, sometimes opinions about current events like the SSL 7, but also interviewed them about their past career and their experiences in the community.

Napoleon's interview was an interesting read to me. I always liked his playstyle, although I didn't really notice him until ISL 2. It's especially awesome that my favorite matchup to watch him play, his TvZ, is also his favorite one to play ^^
