DreamHack and the head sponsors EIZO, Logitech G and Kingston HyperX are very proud to present the first competitors for DreamHack Open Stockholm 26-27 April. It's the return of past DreamHack Champions, Evil Geniuses ThorZaIN (DreamHack Open Stockholm), Mousesports MaNa (DreamHack Open Summer), Team Acer Nerchio (DreamHack Open Bucharest) and Grand Final and 2012 Champion Team Liquid HerO (DreamHack Open Winter). Also the DreamHack Stockholm Invitational (2011) Champion SK-Gaming MC returns to DreamHack competition for the first time since 2011.
DreamHack are thrilled to welcome the legendary  Jaedong from Evil Geniuses to play in Sweden for the first time and also make his StarCraft II debut in Europe at DreamHack Open Stockholm. Find the full list of competitors below, more competitors will be announced in a second batch in the upcoming weeks.
Last week, DreamHack presented the star-studded caster line-up including Apollo, Artosis, iNcontroL, TaKe and Adebisi that will be covering the event live on-site. Spectator tickets is still available at www.ticnet.se but in limited amount. The event will be open from 11.00 to 24.00 each day, with the Final 8 show during Saturday afternoon/ evening (exact stage schedule TBA).

More Code S Koreans and Kespa players but i guess neither will happen with GSL starting soon and the same with Proleague unless they will have a break at the same time as this tournament is (which could be true since the good players on EG-TL will be on this event).

Ofc. I cannot think of a tournament where all their core guys haven't been unless they couldn't make it for personal reasons or had prior commitments.

Better bring some good korean terrans.

why are you keeping coins in your couch XD? Hopefully the ticket won't be that expensive and I would go but have no money and it's far away from where I live TT

I guess getting those tickets was a good move!

Hero, MC and the Dong himself?
Cast by Artosis, Apollo and Incontrol?
Could there be more star-power? Also good to see Adebisi. \o/
Dreamhack has always been awesome and this one could be the best yet.
If Incontrol gets the honour of casting alongside the legendary Artosis, my hype- and entertainment-levels might explode.

ADVENTURE TIMEEEEE~!!
not only in your signature, but because I think Artosis and Incontrol would create a very analytical, very high-end cast. They're both intelligent enough that even if one takes the role of commentator instead of super-knowledgeable ex-pro it will still be funn of incredibly accurate presumptions and conversation.

I doubt Kespa will be participating in foreign events for the most part, MLG has a partnership which is the only reason why they send a few players over there

Wowow. Can't believe Jaedong will be playing at Dreamhack O.o Also, the BossToss is back at Dreamhack... sick.
