There is only one important question which must be answered. Will there be beer to buy at the venue like during hockey? >:3

DH has to follow its no drugs policy. Unfortunate but understandable.

Wow, sick! That's a true arena for sure. Hope to see it packed during DH winter.

Next step: Sky boxes!

I don't think that they'll have that many people attending the event to fill the arena.

Dreamhack oh Dreamhack come visit ur beloved neighbour Denmark and host an event soon please! That way we wont have to settle with SLAP live ~_~

I guess we should get good at starcraft first but w/e =[

On topic this is really great and a nice improvement! There were lots of ppl who couldnt get a seat last time and hopefully this will solve this. and 400k is a fuckload of cash, like what, 50-60k USD? Not bad. A teenager/young adult could live of that amount of money for a long long time.. and comfortably to.

Dreamhack is a LAN, this isn't. How many of those 13k visitors are actually SC2 fans or came there to watch StarCraft/something else.

There were an estimated 4k people trying to get in to DreamArena Extreme this summer. Also, the winter event is much larger than the summer event. I have no doubt in my mind about this being filled during RO8 and onward for SC2. Absolutely no doubt.

And... DH is much more than a LAN. It's the world's largest digital festival. There is much more to it than video games.

Well, this is awesome but as far as i understand this it will be the same as the other dreamhacks which means there will be just one match at the arena (the final). Don't get me wrong, SC2 is not the only esports and I really don't want to get other games to be overshadowed by SC2 but _just_ the finals at an mind blowing venue doesn't make me that exited.

Thanks for the info, didn't know about the DreamArena part. By the way, i also think that if somewhere in the world this would get filled to its fullest, it would be Sweden.

Absolutely amazing.

This is by far the biggest venue thus far for Starcraft outside Korea and a major step for esports in general. I can only imagine the atmosphere there. When Thorzain is playing it must be like
times ten or like
when he is winning.

I really absolutely wish I could go there, but alas, I cannot. I will make it my mission to go next year though, would be so great to experience it first hand. If you can go, you definitely should.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.
