But i have to express a bit of dissapointment, ive seen a trend the past events that you release "big Starcraft 2 names" very early, and the hype begins, and then they drop out 1-2 weeks before the events. Generally they are being replaced by Swedish/European players who simply doesnt have the same skill level. Last event it was Anypro, Marinekingprime etc. There must be some way to avoid this? Myself for example have canceled my Trip to Jönköping because Clide, MC, Killer dropped out, they were the players i wanted to meet basically. Players should be aware of potential Scheulde problems long before 1 week before the tournament. EDIT: And MC ofcourse ... :-) | ||

Heart beat sensor ● The semi finals and the grand final will be played in the DreamArena AMD SAPPHIRE. The four players will need to use a heart beat sensor during the matches. ● The Heart beat sensor will be attached with a stretchable belt around the chest. This will be tried out in advance and attached before the final show begins. This could be sick!

EDIT: And MC ofcourse ... :-) With SC2 still being rather young, the scene still constantly changes and shifts. Best example is Leenock winning MLG Providence. I don't think anyone saw that coming, just like everyone was baffled when the KraToss MC dropped out of code A after having won 2 or 3 GSL championships. The Starcraft 2 is very unpredictable and volatile, and it's one of the main reasons why I like it so much. There's a lot of variations in player style and you get to see a lot of new stuff each new tournament. If anything has a chance of making Esports more mainstream and going beyond its fanbase of "nerds," it's starcraft 2 imo. LoL has the viewer count, but SC2 has the excitement and skill ceiling and most importantly, the casters. Looking forward to Dreamhack Winter! | ||

How many tournaments is he going to miss? I've been hearing the EG hype for a year now and he's shown up to basically none of the major tournaments whether due to his arm, travel problems or schedule clashes. | ||

Yes the stream may work for some, but not for everyone. When the stream reaches too many viewers the server gets overloaded, hence throttling bitrate to some viewers. And all of this is very much based on where you live and what ISP you have, because everyone will have different routes to the server. So no, I'm not kind of dumb, you are just clueless. | ||

You know, you just described how it was indeed a problem on your end. =) Not specificly your fault, but the problem being your ISP/routing, which is definitely your end and not DHs. DH cant do much else than sending out a boatload of data out on the internet, if you're unable to receive that data at a satisfactory speed, tough luck. What do you expect, a personal cable from DH home to you? =) | ||

Other than that this will be a sick tournament. Hopefully the streams won't lag like they did in DH Valencia. | ||
