Hi!
As many others also have, I have been thinking about how awesome it would be to be able to go down to you local bar, get a beer and watch a StarCraft game on a big screen together witch other fans. I have been thinking about this for quite some time and it will soon be possible for everyone in Stockholm.
I have had a few meetings with the managers of Olearys Sportsbar and they are very positive to the idea. The are willing to make it a repeated event if the first StarCraftbar goes well.
My question is:
What tournament would you like to see? Olearys want so dates and I want to know what would be most interesting for the fans? Something within a month but not in the nearest two weeks, thats to soon to plan.
Thanks!
Facebook Group with additional barcraft events! http://www.facebook.com/groups/263581126992851/ The Crib is fully booked but there will also be another barcraft in the stockholm vicinity!

MLG and this weekend and I will be there.
|
I'd defenitly join in for it if it was in gothenburg or anywhere in västra götaland.. but for the tourney just get any of the big ones.. MLG/IEM/GSL etc and make sure its a final.
|
Damn well done.
I am sure everyone would love GSL + Homestorycup III and MLG.
Brb moving to Sweden.
|
Wow sick, they should do the same in Iceland. Still cool that your doing that!
|
Ha, I wish I was old enough to go to bars in the first place. Sounds fun though, I'll be sure to visit in a year~~~
|
Feels like NASL goes fucking all the time. So I guess that could work. GSL if it's on and around lunch hours, NASL in the evening. Possibly something else the hours after 22.00
|
Well dreamhack would obviously be the big one atleast considering its a swedish event and its in slightly more than 2 weeks so its very close call
|
The awesomeness of sweden is about to explode!
|
Man this is so sick! Any tourny really. Olearys is like my favorite sports bar in Stockholm! WHich one have you been talking to?
|
Probably needs to be something big that people actually care about. The problem is that there are usually no finals on during the evening swedish time. Best bet would be the Dreamhack playoffs IMO
|
That would be awesome, I might even travel to Stockholm if the circumstances allows it.
Regarding what tournament that they should cover, an event like MLG would be awesome. Guess it might be a bit hard to get the ball rolling for this MLG so quickly, but how about the next stop? I think the events that includes swedish players, but also the best from other countries would draw the most viewers, otherwise I would have suggested GSL.
|
Well missing dreamhack playoffs would be a big mistake imo its easly the best especially since the bar can then market it as a Esport night not just starcraft
|
concidering that Swedish women are some of the hottest/most beautiful in the whole world, one might concider starting a relationship with one and move to Sweden
but it's just so fucking expensive >.>
awesome news!!!!!!!! i want to see that in Denmark too
|
I'm not sure of dates of tournaments but Dreamhack probably would be the best fit. The homestory cup might work as well. The gsl would be great, but it's kind of in the wrong time no?
|
I'd say go with ESPORTS instead of just starcraft. And just the finals of one of the tourneys. We do get alot of content over shot periods of time compared to other sports.
MLG for instance, 3 days literally packed with games.
|
Somebody should to the same in Göteborg (Gothenburg) it doesnt need to be in a bar tho, could be at a LAN café to (GameZ, Vasa Gaming). It would be so awesome!
|
|
Definately do it on a finals night of GSL or MLG or one of the other really important LANs.
I wonder how long it would take to drive from kent uk to sweden....gaming scene here seems very dead....
|
Hi!
Thax for all the quick feedback.
The Problem with Dreamhack is that i am going to be there and work and since i am responsible to Olearys and they want me there for at least the first event.
