The initative takers are well known characters in the norwegian esport organizer scene, and they have done several big tournaments in the past. I am sure these are the best people in Norway for the job, and their #passion is real. Looking forwards to this! Can't wait! Might have to buy Sumo for this^^ | ||

Hoping we get some kind of effect out of this like that Eh, I'd say South Korea is the closest. ESPN has done some online streaming / TV finals for a couple events IIRC. Hopefully this keeps the EU scene alive, they pretty clearly have the best foreigners currently. | ||

Try not to take this post the wrong way, but eSports has been broadcasted on TV since at least 2010 here in Taiwan, and only a few months ago did it make TL front page news when I announced the English stream. LoL is also broadcasted on a few select 1080P television channels here in Taiwan as well. I guess you guys could say my point is, "Why not announce this when there is official news regarding the prize pool, players, etc. etc." EDIT: none the less, it is good to know that there will be more SC2 and CS:GO content coming out from Europe in the near future. | ||
