Sjow replaces Boxer at DreamHack Stockholm

ImageSad news came yesterday for all the Boxer fans out there. Apparently, the Emperor will have to skip Stockholm Invitational due to health problems and will be replaced by Jeffrey "Sjow" Brusi.

The Emperor of Terran and all-time StarCraft legend KR Yo-Hwan 'BoxeR' Lim is going to be skipping the up and coming DreamHack event in Stockholm. Boxer was invited to take part in the DH Invitational but will have to cancel his flight to Sweden due to acute enteritis which led to his hospitalization.

The open spot of the Emperor will be taken by a no minor candidate. DreamHack has turned to IEM European Champion and accomplished Terran SE Jeffrey 'SjoW' Brusi to fill the void left by the legendary Korean. Thus, Sjow will face CA HuK in the first round of the tournament bracket.

DreamHack has also released an official schedule for the event. The doors will open at 14:00 CET with the games starting an hour later with KR MC vs SE Morrow being the first match of the tournament. StarCraft fans will also get the chance to greet all the pro-gamers that are taking part in Stockholm Invitational by visiting the two fan meetings at 15:30 CET and 17:30 CET. If everything goes according to schedule, the Grand Final match will begin at 21:00 CET and will be followed by an official prize ceremony.
