But yeah you really see the direction Blizz is taking in regards to their eSports capable games. Good news all around.
well these 2 threads are connected to the topic, if they were not i wouldnt post them

"more than 450 people and multiple spectator boxes for special guests" (https://overwatchleague.com/en-us/news/21043672)

Would be interesting but it might be difficult to manage. It would need to be bumped constantly to stay on the sidebar, deciding which threads get added and when it would get too long it wouldn't be that useful anymore.
I think it could work but we'd probably need a way to sticky that type of "roundup" thread.
Good idea overall, imo.

I know Katowice was described as relatively small, but i'm not sure how big the others were in comparison. Extra points if they build their own version of the LOTTE building to steal some of that KR production magic.

according to this: https://www.star.com.au/sites/default/files/The%20Star%20Fact%20Sheet_Event%20Centre.pdf
depending on which level of star center was used for sydney qualifier it could fit from 200 to nearly 1000 viewers so it wa bigger then new blizzard arena
edit: i looked closer at diagrams and i think room A was used and if we asume "cabaret" style sitting it fits 344 sits but because i room b could have been used as well that would bump the number of sits to 550 in cabaret style so overrall blizzard venue should be simillar in size, maybe a little bit smaller
