Hmm, when people make news about an event shoudlnt they be a lil less bias and talk about other games as well, because for me sc2 is boring and I dont care about it at all.

On a side note, QL is awesome, too bad they chose dota copy game HoN and not Dota2.

Bah so far away from Stockholm... want to go. How long it takes to go from Stocholm to Jönköping by train and how much it costs?
