don't worry there will be plenty of room for all the sc2 games.

PLEASE elaborate :D

Im guessing hes referring to what some other guy posted: There will be no 5v5 games. Which means CS, Dota, LoL would all be excluded. That should leave the arena for SC2 and maybe 1-2 more games at most?

Well those are mainly football/ handegg arenas, and there are two Swedish ones of 65 / 43k. It'd be kind of silly to have a starcraft finals in that big of an arena though.

4k will be just fine.

Edit: Hockey isn't very popular in Sweden. Even the 7k seems alot to me. Probably only fully seated when we're fighting Finland ^_^

It already says which game will be shown there in the OP.

"StarCraft II, Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition and Quake Live"

Which is actually great as those are the three best games to watch from a spectators point of view (those and BW, but BW doesn't have an active competitive scene in the western world).

To be honest I think they are actually better off with not showing CS, Dota and LoL there, as those are pretty much useless to watch unless you are very much into the game yourself.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Haha, good fucking questions. Although I'd love to see MC strutt his ass back and forth on there doing a slashing motion at the audience.

Just remember to tell jtv/twitch.tv to fix their horrible European infrastructure!

Valencia was down right unwatchable at times in Oslo, Norway.

Facts are evil.

Previous DH arena held about 1000 people. At least as many people were trying to gain entrance to the fully packed finals last DH Winter. There was even more demand at last DH Summer (and the summer events are smaller).

I guestimate a minimum of 2500 will attend the SC2 finals. The real number I'd wager will be around 3000-3500. Though if these news spread well enough there might be an explosion of non-BYOC visitors to DH this winter.

Assuming of course a snow storm doesn't hit again this year.

This is so freaking unbelieveably awesome, and I'll be there! :D

There is only one thing that I need to know before I can rest peacefully (after DHW11 ofc^^), and that is IF DAY[9] IS COMING THERE TO CAST OR NOT?! Does anybody know anything about this?

I'm pretty sure he'll be there. D'apollo and him are kind of the main casters for the event.
Maybe there will be some more streams + casters like Husky and TB.

Ehm, what? Hockey has more spectators than football in Sweden. Not that it matters though...
