It should be a great tournament, with NASL + Apollo/Artosis the casting will be awesome. Looking forward to seeing how Stephano does as well. | ||

Gz to NASL and gj Dreamhack! Does anybody know if they are allowed to stream till the finals or just during group stage? Soo many awesome players, impossible to predict the winner! | ||

It's likely that they made subjective decisions on who seems worthy of getting seeded/'invited' to the 2nd round. Which is a bit... iffy, but ultimately alright if there isn't really anyone in Round 1 who is clearly more deserving than anyone in Round 2. In this case it looks pretty good to me - maybe you could make a case for CoCa/Puzzle given too much of a benefit of the doubt, but considering that they were funded for the trip by the community I think that seeding them into the 2nd round is a valid good will gesture. Unlike something like WCS NA, where there was a few seeds were complete BS and made no sense, which is why the subjectivity of it there was much more of an issue. | ||

They're Koreans, and they were very strong, but there is no way of knowing how good they are at HotS. But on the other hand, they were funded to go by the community, so it seems like an okay move to give them to the benefit of the doubt. It would be a bit disappointing if the fruits of donation were getting knocked out straight away by random no-name swedish player in games that quite possibly won't even be streamed. Also Dayshi forever underrated haha. He's looking stronger than Morrow right now, and perhaps even Babyknight. | ||

"All streams will broadcast until the Final 8 show, where only the Official stream and Partner streams broadcast the show." The official stream partners are DH Spain and Romania. So no, NASL will not cast the final. Source: http://open.dreamhack.se/news/99-broadcast-info.html | ||

NightEnd Ro4@DHW11 didn't make the cut either, alongside names like MorroW, White-Ra, Elfi, Strelok and BabyKnight to name a few. | ||
