Wow those are some numbers! Good to see things going well for DH. I ended up watching it even though i had purchased an MLG spring arena ticket. Dreamhack is definitely the pinnacle of foreign tournaments.
|
Over a million unique views is very good. I wonder what the average concurrent views were though. Can't wait for Dreamhack Summer!
|
Dreamhack was amazing. Great production quality. Great casters. Great games!
Oh one thing. There was a point when the stream was suddenly really quiet. I made a reddit post and Dreamhack fixed it within 5 minutes. That was just spot on!
These numbers are more than deserved! Looking forward to the next DH!
EDIT: How could I forget!!! The CROWD (all capitals is in order here) was probably the best crowd for any StarCraft II event yet. That moment when Thorzain took the finals gave me chills down my spine. Go !
|
great songs during break~
|
|
well deserved numbers, great!
|
thats a really low average viewing time, I can't imagine concurrent was very high with that number.
|
The set and arena definitely looked ahead of its time, the interviews surrounded by that many people in the crowd definitely brought the players closer to the crowd. Setting a great example for future competitions!
|
I'm curious as to how well it did on Swedish television?
edit: derp : (
|
Too bad they don't publish one of the most important indicators: peak and average concurrent viewers. I guess they are not so good.
|
i'm way above the average. Watched more than 10 hours :D

Peaked ~90k during playoffs, 30-50k during pool play. 47 minutes avg. is not that bad considering it was "only" 90k concurrent at the most, with 1 million views in total.

Well at least I did my part in pulling up the average time...
Wonderful to see DH doing well
|
yeah this was my first live tournament live i went to, i went both days. I really liked the first day when you could walk behind all players and see them acually play, was really cool! Then on the second day, the play off day.. to be in that arena during the finals was euphoric! Also i am swedish, so when thorzain won, ofc i went crazy as well as 99% of the crowd in there
It was a really good experience and I am sure I will go again! I am acually thinking about going to the next one (which is somewhere in spain i think?). Hopefully i can take time off work for that!
