you guys should know that the stream for LoL was "in" the client. So, if you started your LoL client - and you probably never heard of esports - your dreamhack stream started automatically.

Anyway lol @ the sly digs at MLG ^_^ would love them to support eachother more though not take sly digs at eachothers events and way they are produced


They, sly digs? I think you are making stuff up, this is not a blog from Dreamhack, and if you read the chart you can see that MLG was bigger in social media than GSL super tournament.

MLG is mentioned as the only tournament outside Korea that gets anythin close to Dreamhacks figures, wow what a sly dig.


Ermm in my English this is a " sly dig " @ MLG when they say;

Today there is no eSport event outside South Korea that are in the same league as DreamHack. The only one close is Major League Gaming in US, but they still have a few games and the live streaming numbers are not on par with DreamHack yet – the Swedish Pride is still dominating.


Saying they are the biggest eSport event outside South Korea? More viewers than MLG? And that Sweden is still dominationg ^_^ ermmm read between the lines?

Im all for them with friendly comeptition BUT i would not ever like them to get angry with eachother and they start having events on similar times and they start dividing the players up between MLG and DH. The reason they had so many viewers this time because it was literally a GLOBAL range of SC2 Superstars that turned up for that side of the tournament (Not sure about LoL).


I get your point, but I can assure you that my intention was not to make a "sly dig" at MLG. I just wanted in show which success DH Summer was when it comes to live streaming numbers.

I loved MLG Columbus and I loved DreamHack Summer, my intention was never to have a MLG vs DH.

LoL figures probably the highest by far, but I'm glad someone felt it was okay to show pride for something in Sweden, whatever it may be ^^

Kinda proud myself for being part of the construction as well as a crew during the event. Will absolutely be helping out there again if classes does not get in the way.

And the pressure for SC2 finals was insane, we had to scramble seats everywhere, got it filled to the last seat in the end.

Edit: For those wondering about the coming dates

Thats good I like MLG and i like DH, but i also like GSL and IEM events too, i love the fact they are all making such good tournaments for everyone to watch, and the players lists they get keep getting better and better which is amazing. I also try and support as much as possible, buying HD passes etc whenever possible to try and show as much support as possible. Thats why i dont want any rivalries or spite to one another just all happy E-Sports family :D.

Not like FIFA vs UEFA, or every football club vs FIFA kind of crap! That would be terribad

No it didn't, there was no autoplay.

And why exactly are we bitching at Riot again for embedding it into their client? How dare they support eSports like that! If Blizzard did that, we'd be dancing in the fucking streets.

More like such an embarrassing thread. A post about Dreamhack showing amazing numbers and half the posts are in some way or another negative and about LoL Vs SC2 vs other games and Dreamhack vs MLG vs GSL. Or just straight up negative like your post.

Great job Dreamhack, it was a great event and probably one of my favorite SC2\e-sports events so far.

Congrats DreamHack :D

Personally I don't care who the views went to because it is a sign of things to come. If Dreamhack takes notice of this success they can look into investing more staff, preparation and effort into streaming Esports which would only help the community grow, which is what we all want.

gg wp Dreamhack, Can't wait for the next time =)

WRONG

The stream didnt start automatically. you had to klick the play button to start it

and i still dont get why so many people on TL are bitching about LoL


But during that weekend LoL server were frequently down so people unable to play the game were pressing that play button to at least see a game I bet it boosted the viewership a lot.

Boosted viewership from people actually watching? Some sort of witchcraft? No idea why everyone shits on Riot so much for the embedded stream with no autoplay. u mad cuz Riot is x100 better than Blizzard when it comes to esports?
