Would be pretty surprised if they don't ^^ Hopefully they hold a tournament in Northern Sweden as well.

You are right, but LoL and Hon is the "in" game to sponoser now, and sort of big money in this tournament. Also they would not like to have a player switch from Dota 1 to Dota 2 mid session. Even if the games are very alike there still quite out shadowed in media by playing the "lesser" version. But on the real subject a nice SC2 tournament. Wonder what format they will be doing? Is it something like MLG where you get points by attending? A worrying fact is that we don't have any SC2 player left in the country with Sjow also leaving(yeah a few is coming back like Thorzain). Maybe let Haypro and Morrow battle it out? It seams as they will have a International tournament during the fall that will be going on in the winter throw, maybe traveling throw Europe then. | ||

The way i understand it an esport arena called "Stockholm Esport Arena" has also been built which is over 400 square meters big and located in the centre of Stockholm. Is it just me or is 400 sq meters not actually very big? | ||

Probably about $16.000 going to SC2. This means each event will have a pricepool of about $2000.for SC2. Not the largest sum but still more than enough for a national championship. I'm looking forward to this. | ||

Yeah, just the fact that they made a place entirely for eSports in the center of the capital is amazing. I really hope this project is succesful, as we could see Sweden becoming the European home for eSports. Some big bank accounts have been drained considerably to afford that place. | ||
