GosuGamers checks the pulse on Tomas "gREYKARN" Hermansson, the DreamHack Head of Esports. We ask how the preparations are going, how they attempt to leverage from last year's DreamHack event.- "In Dota 2 we did a first test tournament last winter and we believe this summer will be the next step in evolution for this game. We have increased from 8 to a total of 16 teams, learned a lot and improved the tournament layout," says Hermansson when we ask him about the changes since last winter.
He also reveals that the media production value for the Dota 2 Corsair Vengeance Cup has increased immensely.
- "We're bringing in Toby Dawson again, but this time he will have his own Dota 2 stage where a few hundred fans can watch the whole tournament live. It will have a big-screen projection and a similar production you have seen from the SC2 streams earlier. The grand final will be played on prime time Monday evening in DreamArena Extreme, just before the StarCraft 2 final so expect a lot of hype and some huge atmoshpere in the arena."
