The last Dreamhack final was in a way bigger stadium, right? In a way bigger town. It was the same town? It was the ice hockey arena ten minutes down the road, as far as I'm aware.
Yes, same town, 5-10 minutes from the LAN. Guess it'll be ther in winter,due to the fact that DHW is somewhat bigger

Khaldor: Mana, did you imagine yourself standing here on the main stage facing Dimaga in the finals of the tournament?
Mana: No, I didnt think Dimaga would make it this far.
Too bad interviews are so much better in my head than irl.

No, we won't. SC 2 started off with a player base of 1 million+ players in the NA. It's a tiny fraction of that - around 10,000-20,000 by my last log in to the NA server - who play online ladder matches. Competitive RTS games aren't that attractive to casual players, and it's the casual players who make up the bulk of MOBA viewers. MOBA Please stop using this term. It's fucking retarded. -The Society of People Who Undestand What MOBA Stands For Can you explain what it is then? First result on "MOBA" into google is a site about LoL strategy. Aren't LoL, DOTA, HoN etc. MOBAs? I'm not trolling. Genuine question. MOBA is a term coined by LoL developers iirc, imo the problem with the term is it doesn't describe AT ALL what happens in a DotA/LoL/HoN type of game, so I hate it. Multiplayer Online Battle Arena?? WTF is that?! There needs to be a term to describe that kind of games though. Give me a better one and I'm never gonna use moba again  Defense of the Ancients. Where each team defends their respective Ancients (bases). Quite simple really. ARTS - Arena Real Time Strategy fits because the genre grew out of the broader genre of RTS, through W3\ -- Incontrol hyping, finals will be soon... Gabe Newell is trying to coin ARTS as Action RTS, which is stupid and makes no sense. Yah, since there are so many RTS's without action.... yea havent you watched PvT ^^ 1 fight gg may the best emp/storms win
yah, or some of those TvT splitmap mech games... lol ^^

Well, it's a free and relatively casual game, with in-game stream support (hint HINT, blizzard?). It's got a way higher playerbase than SC2 as well, again, because it is free to play. If SC2's multiplayer were suddenly F2P, we'd see SC2 player number surge! No, we won't. SC 2 started off with a player base of 1 million+ players in the NA.

I thought he meant last Dreamhack as in Dreamhack Stockholm, taking place in Globen. I don't know where this thing is happening.
