Bet on DreamHack Tournaments 2025

DreamHack has teamed up with Major League Gaming (MLG) and the Electronic Sports League (ESL) since November 2012 to boost North American and European gaming markets. With a total prize pool of over $300,000 (KSh 41,500,500), you get hundreds of video streams and live commentary to keep you glued to esports live action. Events have been held across Stockholm, Jönköping, Tours, Bucharest, Cluj, Valencia, Seville, London and Leipzig.

Fortnite

Fortnite is an open tournament where you can dive in anytime and climb the leaderboard. It’s one of the best ways to feel the rush of spontaneous competition and maybe team up with a pro player. If you’re into Fortnite gameplay or snatching the latest items from the Fortnite item shop, this one’s for you.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO)

In CS: GO, Swedish squads have ruled DreamHack. Ninjas in Pyjamas have snagged six DreamHack titles, from the Astro Open Valencia 2012 to DreamHack Masters Malmö 2016. Fnatic also bagged six trophies, including DreamHack Tours 2012 & 2015 and DreamHack Summer 2015. Their fierce CS:GO battles are a must-watch if you’re into odds betting.

Dota 2

The DreamLeague (formerly Dota All-Stars) is now the biggest Dota 2 tournament globally. While Asian teams often dominate, European and North American squads still get their shot at top prizes. If you love crafting Dota 2 predictions, this event gives you plenty of data to work with.

StarCraft 2

Since its 2010 release, StarCraft 2 has been a DreamHack staple. Finnish player Naama won the inaugural StarCraft 2 finals at DreamHack Winter 2011, and the game’s been featured in both summer and winter editions, plus DreamHack Open. Watching these epic matchups live is pure poa.

Heroes of the Storm

Heroes of the Storm brings together characters from Warcraft, Diablo, StarCraft and Overwatch. It debuted at DreamHack Bucharest 2015 where TeamLiquid claimed the PGL Spring Champions title. Its growing prize pool even saw BeGenius ESC pocket $5,000 (KSh 691,675) at DreamHack Tours 2017.

Other games

Aside from the heavy hitters, you’ll find legends like League of Legends, Super Smash Bros., Smite, Street Fighter V, Heroes of Newerth, Mortal Kombat XL and even Tekken Tag Tournament 2. The variety here keeps every genre fan engaged.

By the tournament definition, it’s a series of matches where the best rise to the top. DreamHack’s huge mix of genres means there’s something for every esports fan. Just like you follow the English Premier League and place your football bets, you can get absorbed in the electrifying world of video games and esports. Plus, cheering on African qualifiers or a Kenyan team gives it extra Zaid energy.

DreamHack is a BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) LAN event—think of it as a massive LAN party with major stakes. If you bet on DreamHack, you’ll find markets like matchwinner, first to ten kills in CS:GO, or fastest first tower in League of Legends. Smart betting tips 1x2 and studying esports predictions can give you the edge.

These online esport betting sites often let you deposit and withdraw using M-Pesa and Airtel Money.

DreamHack Summer

The inaugural DreamHack Summer kicked off in Jönköping, Sweden, on 15/06/2002 with a 32-team Counter-Strike tournament. Ninjas in Pyjamas took gold, and they’ve kept the title for 2002, 2006, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Fnatic and SK Gaming each clinched two wins, making Summer a hotspot for CS:GO drama.

Winter DreamHack

DreamHack Winter, also in Jönköping, hosts top-tier League of Legends, CS:GO, Dota 2, Overwatch and Hearthstone showdowns. Mousesports and Natus Vincere won the first events, Gambit Esports triumphed in 2016, and ENCE lifted the trophy in 2018. These epic clashes are perfect for your esports predictions.

DreamHack Open

Started in 2012 with a $350,000 (KSh 48,417,500) prize pool, DreamHack Open is open to amateurs and pros. Ninjas in Pyjamas won the first Open in Valencia. Bucharest, Malmö, Montreal, Atlanta and London all hosted subsequent events. DreamHack Masters Las Vegas 2017 was the biggest yet—Virtus.Pro beat SK Gaming, North and Astralis to pocket £250,000.
