Really great event, definitely a storybook ending adds alot to the epic feel (would not have been as good if polt won).

- song when thorzain won I think somebody requested it.

For organizing all this good stuff, he deserves five minutes on his own stage, independent how good on camera he is. Same goes for Sundance, Carmac, David Ting etc.


I agree. I see no problem with organisers coming on stage at some point. the amount of work required to make these events happen is staggering.

Obviously, these guys deserve some limelight and a great deal of respect for all their hard work. It was more HOW he did it that I just found a little contrived, patronising and embarassing.

The event was EPIC though all round, and they deserve every ounce of credit, I was just a bit embarassed for everyone involved for that 1 minute period. I think he thought it would go down better than it did.

That's just nitpicking tho.

Absolutely phenomenal event. Why is Sweden so much better than the rest of Europe?

This was a fantastic event. TY Dreamhack, I would say the weekend was very good day for SC2 overall. There was a lot of good things happening.

Some terrific matches at MLG especially the final series between MKP and DRG
NASL did a neat Barcraft hosted challenge match between Sen and Tod duking it out
Scarlett again confirmed its time to take her seriously with some terrific performances in the IPL team event (Corpuscle commented replays) before crushing Aurora in a challenge match
Day9 and Husky bringing us the After Hours Gaming League finals demonstrating the grass roots strength of our favourite game
Stephano finally came back from his holiday and as if we had forgotten showed us just how amazing he is on his stream (I bet he wished he had gone to Dreamhack though)
and of course the absolute highlight was the terrific overall Production of Dreamhack with Thorzain proving once again he creates some of the best Sc2 memories (Remember a year ago when he won TSL?)


pps special mention to Team Liquid for being the hub of all and making it so easy to access all this wonderful content



So sick nerdchills watching this again

I don't understand how Dreamhack gets sooooooooo smooth FPS compared to every other tournament, it's just such a big difference even though the other tournaments all have good quality aswell....

Yes, yes it is. An event that's so epic overall could have been even better. Offering criticism on a specific point could be considered nitpicking. For me though, it was a pretty mortifying and cringeworthy moment within a sea of pure gold. I just HAD to bring it up as nobody else was mentioning it.

I'm not a hater :-)

I really really loved this dreamhack, The best combination of caster was of course apollo + incontrol.

Then MannerZain telling the crowd to cheer more for his opponent!!!

And it's totally fine with me to have just a 2-day event. My weekends are usually not free anyways so it's easier to catch up!

Best ending to any tournament yet? I mean with the storyline, the music, the crowd. That's a brilliant moment.

That might be true, but for me: Real cheers from the crowd >>nerdchills>> forced clapping we sadly see all the time in MLG/american events, so I guess even if Polt would have won it would have been an awesome response from the crowd nonetheless (compare Hero's victory - so much more enthusiasm/real emotions FTW !)

For me DH felt abit strange at first due to the huge number of "no-names" especially on day 1, but ulitmately it proved for me that you can get great games and a great atmosphere (and thus a great event) no matter if your line-up is stacked with $$ or not ... IF you provide such a great stage for the game.
Thanks alot for that @organizers - and the great crowd there as well. *tips hat*

Also, best clock/time solution I have seen yet.

except for the terrible sound sometimes it was good.


when was that? i watched almost everything yesterday and didn't notice any sound problems


They were messing with the sounds so sometimes it was really low and other times music was way higher than apollo+wolf's voices etc.

Im sorry, terrible was not the right word to use, it was unstable!
Everything will be ok in the end. if it's not ok, its not the end.

This is how it was for me aswell. Such an awesome tournament, free streams is the only way to spread the beauty of e-sports.

As it seems you were the sole who actually noticed or took offense, perhaps the error is in you?
