At this moment the EU servers have yet to be hit with DC's despite being (anecdotally) as busy as NA servers - likely more so as its not the middle of the work day. Your assuming that the majority of NA took the day off to play 7.4 which is why I think your making baseless assumptions (to match your tone about novel sized walls of speculation).
The us have 4 logical data centers and the eu only two, so any comparison between the two are going to be apple versus oranges (not to mention that they are located in different parts
of the world, different telecom networks and so on)

I just dont like that people assume that from now on servers disconnects are ddos attacks by default and eager to brandish it as an excuse on behalf of SE.

The healthy reaction is: if the service is not working, by default the culprit should be assumed to be the service provider. They are big boys, if it is actually not their fault they can tell us themselves.
