Those are offline individual leagues and they gave seeds to a bigger event. Aside from GSTL and Proleague I think all teamleagues are minor there is just less incentive for the players compared to individual leagues.

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

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.

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