CS GO has been pulling from twice to 3 times the viewership of SC2 guys, this isn't something we should be surprised at.

Since CSGO has so few premier events, I'm not surprised DreamHack wants to run with it

So far, CS:GO has had limited exposure in DreamHack's world circuit, with the game having been left of out of a number of events that take place in several countries throughout the year.


Does that mean that potentially, StarCraft II will be excluded from smaller Dreamhack tournaments?

France is a strong home of CS players, but the SC2 crowd here is gonna be mad at no SC2...

You're complaining about a SC2 forum complaining about SC2 being scratched from being the main event? Sorry, but we're not here to circlejerk about CS:GO....

I mean I get what you are trying to say but come on, cut us some slack.

CSGO deserves that main stage treatment, but I'm not that certain about Dreamhack's future SC2 presence.

MH. I remember at last DH:Bucharest they announced Sc2 later than the other games, I REALLY HOPE it is the same case.
(also because I'm already doing programs for it )

I'm pretty sure DH is going to announce DH SC2, the French Facebook page kinda confirm it.

I'll post more infos about it when I'm home.

Hopefully all the DH events will still feature SC2... Otherwise that'd be a really bad for the European scene.

I don't mind that at all. As long as they cover SC2 well I am totally fine with that.

It's not just the viewership, you gotta think that 2 of the most "popular" teams are swedish, which makes it also a political decision. And with Thorzain/Sortof/Nani/Sase kind of gone from the main stage this makes perfect sense.

This is truly worrying (esp. the part about not announcing SC2 yet....).

Yeah CSGO in Europe is a bit like sc2 in Korea in terms of player and team skill. It isn't quite as 1 -sided as the sc2 scene though. Thing that strikes me as odd was that I recently saw Artosis casting a CS:Online tournament in the gom studios and then I saw tasteless casting some kind of weak looking CS ripoff called 'crossfire' with lilsusie or something only a couple weeks ago. Maybe valve purposely doesn't grow CSGO in asia because they dont want the Koreans to dominate I actually think its because Asian gamers only seem to like f2p games these days.

DreamHack France announced LoL, CS:GO and Hearthstone as the FIRST three games that'll be played. More will come later and with the size of the french SC2 scene, it's pretty safe to assume there will be a SC2 tournament.

Exactly. Not only that but Moman will be there as a CS:GO coach AND SC2 fangirl :D

apart from the fact that CS:GO is growing, sweden is like the heart of CS in Europe (they have a ton of good players), so it makes sense to have it as the main game


My thoughts exactly

Here's to hoping NiP wins DH Summer 2015.

This is cool, I'm not a massive fan of CS:GO compared to 1.6 but it's getting better and more interesting to watch now. It's not like something being on or off of the main stage makes any difference to anyone at all unless you're at the event since you see all the same content on a stream anyway.
