Huk, Haypro, Jinro, Sase, Ret, Morrow, Naniwa, Tod, Major, TLO, Nightend, QXC.
Probably some others too.

Hmm, never heard of MYM Starbuck, yet he takes out Lowely, Harstem and Adelscott. Guy seems to be on a roll today.

I'm pretty sure HuK and ThorZaIN tried when they weren't handed seeds. Also a couple of the guys on old-Quantic who were in Korea for a bit?
Also SLoG and cArn, right? And the foreigner or two in the most recent one a week or so ago who we've never heard of.

Indeed. And to be considered better, I'd say you'd need to match his kill-list either in individual leagues or team leagues.

Yeah, MYM has an eye for talent, as evidenced by their pickups of Dragon and Krolu. /s

I'm naming 10 that could do well just for funsies. I believe Tails is stronger than most EU players.
Stephano, Lucifron, Vortix, Naniwa, Sase, Mana, Nerchio, Grubby, Demuslim, Ret, Snute and Kas are all players I could see do ok in GSTL.
*edit* Regarding better than Tails, I think none. But wouldn't be surprised to see any of these players defeat him in a tournament.

What about all the ones that got invited to Code A/Code S and then lost right away? A huge amount of those were competitive players and the fact that they lost right away would suggest they would have had trouble in the qualifiers if they had actually tried.

We don't know how good any Europeans are right now because they've barely played HOTS competitively.
We all assume Stephano is still number one but he's been smashed in HOTS so far.

Results wise it's MaNa -> Luci/VortiX atm, I'd say. Haven't seen anything out of Stephano.
Bunny/Welmu/BratOK last foreign hopes
