I'm hoping TOP does well since he's been getting bad luck at GSL qualifiers.

Yeah, I'm thinking it would be best for foreign starcraft if a korean gets to the finals but gets beaten there. It will both give koreans more incentive to travel to eu and na (they can take home money from more tournaments than wcg and blizzcon) and it will give the foreign scene some credibility if the koreans don't win everything.

well i guess its better then no tourney to watch, but its Bo1 ugh so rediculous. These tournaments better straighten some things out. And who the hell is Actionjesus.... really come on unless this is some super human EU player we have never heard of, couldn't Dreamhack found better players to invite?(EU,NA or Korea. The answer is yes) Id love to listen to the thought process on it, really!

"ok, Idra cant make it cause GSL.... lets not invite other international players to give our tourney more public attention. no that is stupid, branching out is noob! instead lets invite a bunch of EU players nobody has ever heard of and then make foriegners play BYOC.... excellent, profits for all"

I dunno... is this EU humor? really Bo1 tourney for $14000 and you invite EU nobodies instead of reputable international players, that promotes YOUR tournament and makes it better. Instead you have a BYOC round and have all the Pro players fly to sweden and rape your local population to get their rightful slots, just so your BYOC is not boring as all hell..... I dont get it .

But I'll be very happy to see top 3 go to non-EU players this year, maybe it will wake dreamhack up next year and get some decent EU players on the line up. Instead of relying solely on a few players that are expected to do well and carry the EU, either at EU tourneys or international ones.

Those players you havent heard of has qualified trough other tournaments, 8 players gonna qualify from the BYOC. So, you can stop acting like a douch. Its a fair deal for more players to get to the top.

Also, its bo1 in the group stage, I agree, its kinda retarded, but its a huge tournament (Like GSL, qith qualification and 32 players that gonna battle for it, in 3 days, not a month, so. Also there is other things there, its not just a SC2 event).

And also, Dreamhack is the only european tour that has ever had Koreans in it. And all the players that are invited are expected to do well, Its probably just you that dosent have a clue about the scene or something. And its on Swedish ground, ofcourse there is gonna be Swedish players invited. Actually theres alot less Swedish players invited than it would be in any other tournament. If it was a US tour, there would be 99.9% americans that got invited. So stop bitching about it.

Also I can add that Dreamhack has a free that has ultra mega HD quality on it. All the other tournaments has like really bad streamquality and if you want better you have to pay 20 US dollars for a few days.. So yeah.

wow your post is full of fail... Why dont you go and read about how players qualify and how they chose them instead of just assuming stupid things?

It has been stated over and over again, 15 invited players, 9 players has qualified through offline events with DH on Tour prior to the event and 8 spots are for the BYOC qualifier on spot. Regarding the bo1/bo3 issue, that's for the BYOC qualifier, it's mostly filled by noobs with a handful of decent players, which means the better players will most likely advance even tho it is just bo1.
Really, play for fun!

A. I'm not American.
B. If this is the only EU tournament to have Koreans would it not be logical to make them feel welcome and extend an Invitation, not an invitation to participate in BYOC. Don't respond, the answer is yes.
C.Good for you its on swedish ground. That doesnt make your players better then other pro's who are not just NA players you narrow sighted mongoloid. Sure invite those BYOC slots for locals don't waste garentee'd more viewers and attention on the tournament by inviting well known players.
D. Look at MLG season this year, each event had more and more Non-americans in it. With a Swede winning the last one! And it would behoove Dreamhack to take note of how that tournament's international base is growing, as well as GSL, now.

Nobody is bitching about it, its an observation that Dreamhack is doing some crazy shit, and it's really not doing anything for them by doing so.
Untwist those panties and tuck in that skirt , buck up! you still got ActionJesus!

Well, if you would know anything InCa and TOP decided to come themselfes because the didnt qualify for GSL. Thats why they wherent invited, cause they are Koreans and they want to play GSL. Dont you think they asked the whole Korean scene if they wanted to come? I think they did but got turned down since Koreans likes to stay in Korea.

You didnt read anything I wrote? They QUALIFIED in from random tournaments out there, lol. Maybe Sweden and Dreamhack are more for esports and giving new "pros" a chance aswell, just like GSL does with the qualifying. I dont see you whining on GSL "WHO IS THIS DUDE, WHY IS HE PLAYING IN GSL OMG, THE SHOULD INVITE SOME WELL KNOWN PLAYERS".. Etc. So, whats the problem, I really dont see it. Everyone had the same chance to qualify if they didnt get an invite, just like in GSL except there is no invite in GSL.

So, the only crazy thing is the bo1 in the group stage. Cant see why anything else is crazy since it gives everyone a chance to play on a big stage with a big price pool. More than most tournaments gives you.

MapleFracta, stop posting - your logic is completely warped and your answering your own questions + asking ones that could be answered if you had bothered to read up on how people actually qualify for this tournament. It's not your typical tournament, and it's not supposed to be.
