Dream Hack has always been one of the biggest most awesome tournaments, I wish I could visit beautiful EU one day. :D You do realize EU isn't a country right? Dreamhack is a swedish organisation with main events in Sweden (Dreamhack Summer) and smaller events like Stockholm Invitational/Stockholm Eizo Open. Then there is ofcourse expanded events wich takes place in Spain and Romania aswell. But that's about it so far. Saying for example: "I wish i could visit beautiful Usa one day". That would make sense since it's a whole country wich has states instead of a large amount of countries combined. But saying: "I wish I could visit beautiful EU one day" doesn't make sense since it's a just a term for a big chunk of countries wich would mean you would have to visit every single country in the EU to find out if EU really is that beautiful as you think. rant rant rant .... i know. | ||

In general it seems like marketing as a way to cover for the whoops we fucked up and scheduled these events on the same weekend and nothing else. Oh well, hopefully the spring championship is great because I haven't really been liking the arena decisions until now. | ||

The numbers may change again for the Summer Season, based on Spring results. I think it's a good idea. US has shown to have the weakest player pool, you know, outside of Stephano and Thorzain. | ||

To me it kinda seems like this was MLG's idea and they threw some money at Dreamhack to accept it. "MLG: Hey let's send the winner of your fine tournament *cough* to our Mighty Fine Event in the America but let's not send any of our top placing players to your fine tournament *cough*". Advertising themselves and letting Dreamhack in on a small portion of the cake while eating the most of it themselves. | ||
