I just watched a fantastic Dreamhack Valencia and I was amused but also super tilted that once again, our Dreamhack champions cannot defeat the final boss - The Champagne Ceremony.

I thought it was the Korean's, but after seeing Geoff 'Incontrol' Robinson teach the winner the wrong method, I realise it wasn't their fault.

So today we learn how to do a Champagne Ceremony from the Professionals: Formula 1 Champions.

[image loading]

[image loading]

1) Open the bottle WITHOUT SHAKING IT

2) hold your thumb over the Champagne opening and shake!

3) expose ONE THIRD of the opening for a BEAUTIFUL MISTY SPRAY.


Here is Formula 1 legend Lewis Hamilton showing us how:



If we work together and get this information to the Koreans, I think we might finally defeat the final boss of Dreamhack. GL HF GG

This too shall pass

Its not just about opening the bottle. Its the whole show. The beautiful mist of Champagne into the crowd, the host, and into the mouth of the Champion.

Maybe the semifinalist should've been given a bottle aswell?
I don't particularly like you.

You're being too harsh on him.

+ Show Spoiler [Identity of Winner] +
Sacsri had never even been to Dreamhack before, much less won it, and he told Smix he hadn't even touched a bottle of champagne in his life before, yet he got the bottle open and spraying. That is bonjwa level of champagne mastery.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

So basically, all was iNcontroL's fault for years. Damn, TaeJa will be so pissed at him when he'll know.

while we're on opening champagne, the secret to is to hold the cork steady and twist the bottle while pulling. Most people try to pull on the cork. starcraft life lessons
