We a bunch lots of sites covering starcraft, but they don't even seem to link to each others events. Gosugamers isn't that active and focus almost solely on international starcraft. Rakaka is more of a tabloid that focuses more on headlines than actual content. Fragbite is more of a Counter-strike site. Where was/is all the interviews/updates of swedes competing in korea? (Jinro, Naniwa, Sase, Morrow, Cytoplasm, Haypro). Where is all the interviews of swedish weekly cup winners? Why doesn't anyone report from all the swedish bar craft events? Why aren't there anyone creating TL threads/Calendar events of Swedish tournaments? Could Dreamhack be the swedish starcraft hub we need? It has the reputation, the organization, the sponsors and the incentive to make swedish starcraft grow. | ||

Nyheter24-gruppen (Fragbite) hosted the stream, it's natural for them to have a great coverage of the event and they indeed deserve props for doing a great work. I'm Wake, newswriter for Rakaka and I can only give you my perspective, you know. I apologize on my behalf if I've been inactive. All I can say is that it's very hard to find the right writers for the content that Rakaka wants to provide. It is indeed more of a tabloid & and yes we spend energy focusing on headlines rather than content, that's pretty much the the thing with Rakaka. You keep on mentioning Rakaka writers showing up at different events and not giving any interviews. Have it ever crossed your mind that these individuals attend events as themselves sometimes? LaLush is a Starcraft 2 player, man. He attended one EsportSM qualifier to play, not to interview. Don't expect everyone to always walk around with a camera and a microphone just cause they got the Rakaka logotype written in their forehead.  When it comes down to the actual coverage on the event online, we've put up streams on our website. Have you visited esportsm.se? They did an amazing job covering the event themselves with interviews. Rakaka put up streams & information at the top of the website but when there already are so much great work made on Swedish, why re-do it for the purpose of just putting a Rakaka-logo over it? | ||

Rakaka could do with more activity but other than that they're great. If you want something else/more dont be afraid of starting a site yourself  | ||
