I think swedes (including myself) have crowned ourselves the leading E-sport nation in the world (counting out Korea).

I think we also, atleast for the moment have the best lineup and hopefully it will stay that way for a while =)
The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable.

Ukraine seems to have the most solid lineup I think.

Sweden > Ukraine > Germany = USA > Canada > Most of the rest

Sweden and Ukraine are pretty self explanitory

Where Germany has skill USA makes up in pure numbers, and then theres Canada.
Survival is winning, everything else is bullshit.

Sweden I would say, of course a little biased but hey:

Jinro, MorroW, Sjow, NaNiwa, ThorZaIN, Sase, Lalush, jimpo, Naugrim etc.

2 MLG victories, 2 IEM victories, final 2 in TSL 3 are swedish, Jinro GSL semi twice etc.

Doesn't matter if you're Swedish or not, it's quite clear from tournament results that Sweden is second after Korea. That said, Ukraine is indeed amazing. That the US and to some extent Germany is strong is not surprising, but Ukraine is not a country you would expect to be a beast in esports, and Sweden just has such a small population that it's quite amazing how many good players there are.

Feels shitty to be a Swede and sucking hardcore at the game though, need to live up to my nation, get my shit together.

Considering the 122000 dollars Sweden has taken so far in price money, Sweden performs better than the US and Canada put together.

but as you could see in nationwars, thats not close to ukraine or germany and not even top5

i think so far its Sweden, Germany, Ukraine in the top3 followed by USA and then its start getting close perhaps russia

to better see:

sweden: Jinro, MorroW, Sjow, NaNiwa, ThorZaIN, Sase, jimpo, Naugrim, haypro etc. (no i dont think lalush ^^)

ukraine: kas strelok white-ra dimaga

germany: socke mondragon goody hasuobs tlo darkforce ... not mention delphi inuh xlord mardow naruto miou rine farmer and hopefully soon infernal etc etc

Ukraine has like 4 or 5 top tier players :\. I think Sweden easily has it, followed by the Ukraine, I really dont see how people can list the US till some of the players travel outside the states to prove themselves, or hell even win an MLG.

Wow Tolkien I don't agree. Players who have european level in France are Adel, SarenS and Stephano. I think we can add KenZy and MoMaN when they are in a good shape. AureS can egually snipe some top european players. And that's ALL.

SonG is of course not bad, but It's totally not the same level...

Soju don't play competitively so not at all.

And cArn... LOL.
