YAYY BOMBER <3 After losing WCS on a whim, he seems like hes in good shape and his play is really good, throughout the entire WCS America. This will be his tournament to win!
|
First DH jaedong is going to miss
|
Cool
Will the new ladder maps be used?

Interesting, Solar but no Stork or Roro. Saying that I just remembered IEM Shenzhen is on the same weekend.

im gonna guess the reason jaedong hero taeja and jjakji aren't going is because they got invited to iem shenzen if i had to guess

Honestly, I try to be sincere, most of the time, if I am being truly genuine, honorable, and proper, honestly

It's stacked, but not nearly as much as past Dreamhacks have been. No Taeja, Innovation, JD, sOs, soulkey?

Its a real pity this DH is happening on the same weekend as IEM. Hopefully both turn out to be fantastic though.
Naturally rooting for Bomber!
|
Hey, perhaps this will be the first tournament in a while without protoss champion? Nah, who am I kidding, Socke will take it all!
|
Welmu... :'( Like always when he has change to win he must cancel.. I guess that Elfi will take it then.

Hmm lack of KESPAAAAAAAAA considering it is end of season for Prime/Samsung/IM/MVP is strange. Oh well maybe next DH when all of KESPAAAAAAA are finished xD
|
TaeJa giving a chance to the other players by not coming, such a nice guy
|
i wish suppy went to more foreign tournaments... feel like his full-time is pointless if hes not going anywhere but its all up to EG i guess...
|
|
|
God dammit... The DH I decide to attend lacks Jaedong ((
|
Not so many koreans... cool!

You have to remember that IEM is that weekend and some of those players you're listing are attending that.
Also note that Proleague playoffs are 20-22 for one semi final, so no major SKT or CJ players will travel.
|

|
Btw, again IEM is same weekend as DH. IEM is almost always overlapping with other tournaments like ASUS ROG and DH. Isn't it quite weird?
|
YES! Bomber gogogogogogo!!!!!!!!
|
Welmu not coming makes me sad but rooting for Serral especially!

Everyone wants those summer slots. But in IEM's case weren't they paid exhorbitant amounts of money to host an IEM in Shenzhen?
|
No TaeJa this time, we'll have some suspense
|
Gosh fricking darn it, Welmu. Why do you have to do this to me once again? T_T
Well hopefully elfi or/and Serral will perform extra well then.

Bomber vs Solar finals please
|
Maybe in this long list of unknown spanish players, a prodigy is hiding and will rise on top of the foreign scene?
|
That's a rather weak line up overall, imo. Gonna be good nonetheless, because dh.

I wonder which protoss will take this one. Maybe Patience?

Nope. I'm sure First will take it. He's one of the best Korean Protosses atm. Also, Solar stands a real chance winning too. Not a very good Terran line up, but that's because Taeja decided to go easy on these people.

Well they had their chances at HSC/DH Bucharest but didn't make the playoffs. I think, that it is only fair of Samsung to now give Solar a chance, since he has been a valuable player for them as well.

Solar announced on his stream all the way back in like January or February that he was going to Valencia. I thought it was pretty far ahead of time but I guess he's been locked in for some time now :D

Holy unknowns, Batman! So many Spanish players and other players that have a chance to make a name for themselves here.
|
But... but... Jaedong?
|
|
|
cool to see solar . Not the most stacked, hopefully a foreigner is going to hold till the ro8 ^^

Pretty surprised to see no Jaedong since he's been going to most tournaments since joining EG. I guess right now I would pin HyuN as the favorite maybe if he can dodge the stronger Korean protoss or Solar
|
Wheres Sjaak?
|
TEAM MATRIX FTW ! Go baal ! Make them cry !
|
A tad disappointing, but will be fun!
|
I see stephano still has problems retiring
|
Suprisinglyl not so many Korean Terrans? O.o

lol, does it still count if they try because they are laughing too much?
|
Maybe I'm just blind but I can't see to find the map pool anywhere, will they be using the new ladder map pool and if so will they use the proper updated versions unlike ladder?

Yes but you have to do a twist. If Scarlett switch to Protoss for game 2. Switch for BW in game 2.

Solar and Leenock ftw please!

Looking forward to some AMAZING swarmhost games from M.Stephano

Regarding eligibility, it says on DH website "Each DreamHack Open stop will feature open sign-ups for 64-96 competitors." Does that mean anyone can sign up, even Bob the gold player?
Also, regarding group stages, for the past 3 DH events it says on the liquidedia page http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2014_DreamHack_Open/Valencia "The 32 competitors with the highest seed will begin their tournament in the second group stage. " I'm wondering how is seeding determined?
