A couple of weeks ago we started previewing all the Esports tournaments for DreamHack Winter 2012. We also included some of our Packers in those previews. The question now is: how did they all do?

StarCraft II

LLL.PoYo definitely was the strongest StarCraft II player we took with us this edition. The Terran from team LowLandLions did not have a lot of trouble with his first two opponents, but then fell 1-2 against the Swede prOp.RunA. However, PoYo did qualify for the THOR open, which is an impressive feat.

mCon.NEEK had a decent run through the BYOC. In round 3 he took a game of Naugrim, which is an achievement. He unfortunately lost the two games after that.

AT.Giant met TomikuS in the first round, a strong Zerg from Czech Republic. TomikuS took the first map but Giant came back with a clever strategy, making it 1-1. In the last map, TomikUs proved he was the better player and took out Giant, 2-1.

Weiman faced HaMa in his first round and lost 2-0.

snOr.MoL made it to the second round by defeating Jezharra, but then lost to random player Elgben.

snOr.Lichiz lost to prOp.Finicky in his first round, 2-0.

snOr.Pimmeh had some doubts if he would sign up for the BYOC tournament. When he was finally convinced, it got clear that GL.Snute was his first opponent. Pimmeh lost 2-0.

League of Legends

Unfortunately, LLL.LoL didn’t make it through the BYOC tournament. They won the first four games but fell to Sju Sjösjuka Sjömän in the critical and deciding last match. However, LLL.LoL showed good games and only lost because of small mistakes.

Super Street Fighter IV

Both LLL.MBR and LLL.MoMi easily made it through the group stages at DreamHack Winter 2012. In the ro16, MBR and MoMi faced each other. Momi won 2-1 and had a good run through the tournament, eventually finishing 3rd. MBR dropped into the losers bracket and lost to WW.MCZ|LAUGH, he finished 7th.

Quake Live

LLL.Draven didn’t surprise at DreamHack, he got placed into a group with Snapphanen, Pavel and Cypher. He lost to Pavel and Cypher but won against Snapphanen, which wasn’t enough for a spot in the next round.
