TB <3 host tried so hard though..he seemed nervous, and wanted to get longer answers out of players. They gave pretty good answers considering the questions he asked. Not sure if he was nervous or he didn't think of his questions before hand. Well, I don't know it just seemed the whole ending was a bit awkward.
endings are always awkward. lol

Most people aren't there to watch any tournaments so it'll probably remain that way. Also, of course the DH summer audience was shit when they were in day9's tent with room for 200 people? Dream arena crowd was ok.
And yeah the line to dream arena went through the whole area i think.

DRG with the champagne bottle is still the most awkward thing i've ever seen. I do think the award ceremonies are a bit much most of the time. even the mlg and gsl ones get awkward at times. I honestly think the best solution is to let the players celebrate/acknowledge crowd and then take a break and do the wrap up interviews off stage in an interview/backstage environment. Also hosts need to work a bit on the questioning. I'd like to steer clear of the "how do you feel" , "does this give you confidence" type questions. Can we not accurately assume that winning makes a player happy and gives them some confidence. I much prefer to hear about players mindsets during games, etc..

Nooo needs to be like in Formula 1, i.e champagne spraying over the winner, national anthem playing xD. But agree'd with intrerview behind stage after the players have celebrated personally on stage for the crowd.

He was good, but the award ceremony was still terrible, they gave DRG some champagne and he didn't have enough hands to hold everything, let alone spray champagne around...

if idra made a 2nd spine on antiga he wouldnt have lost 10 drones. just 1 drone and 100 minerals for the price of 10 drones.
not sure why he wants to defend with the bare minimum when its obvious 90% of the time terrans will try to hellion him.
Because Idra rarely makes mistakes in mechanics. And if he manages to get away with bare minimum he gets ahead and that only gets him further ahead as time passes. He gets stronger longer the game lasts.

Should have left the talky bits to TB / Apollo but other than that it was a great show.

Grats IdrA
It's been a nice 2 months as an IdrA fan
Just looked at the MLG champions bracket... Idra has the hardest set of players, and Naniwa has the easiest...

Good job IdrA, one strategy, boring as fuck but perfectly executed, well deserved.

congratz to Idra, ggs
Personally I expected more from Whitera and Huk

The best ceremonie was when Slayers won the GSTL. I will never forget that. Ever.

Well done to TB and Apollo, very good casting throughout the tournament.

Yes, especially HuK after his MLG victory. Remember that Dreamhack + HSC back to back? That was awesome.

I think he has the BW approach to strategy. If the strategy is good enough it should be viable in most scenarioes. I actually love to watch it as a Z. He does nearly the same thing every game vs T... but he adjusts a but to be able to defend on a razors edge. Beautiful to watch as Z. Skipping roach when T "forces" you to go roach gives you so many timings T isnt ready for.

Dreamhack summer had a shitty audience tbh. It's been held at a convention. http://web.finnexpo.fi/Sites1/DigiExpo/en/Pages/default.aspxIt's probably more of a space thing. They only seemed to have space for like 100 ppl. And then there was another 20 sitting on the floor.
there was probably room for 100 in the stands... but the areas beside the stands were full - extending back further than the stands - probably around another 100 when I was there for Elfi vs White-Ra.
