Kings of Tin is a show that Wacksteven and myself stream as we play team games with the audience and other celebrities from the Starcraft 2 scene. The name of the game is fun, and we try to keep things interesting by using our tin-level skill to come up with creative ideas to win, and often use our celebrity guests as a crutch.

Tonight on the Kings of Tin, we will be joined by Naugrim of GosuGamers. Here's a little info about Naugrim from the GosuGamers page:

Naugrim was one of our first players to hop aboard Team GosuGamers, as he joined in January 2011. He was a member of the Swedish national team in Brood War. Although being a late bloomer, Naugrim holds two Top 4 placements from DreamHack.

Be sure to tune in tonight at 6:30pm EST...or whenever we feel like starting. We'll be using our new production setup with the very awesome EG.SirScoots manning the boards at his studio in NASA and allowing us to show the camera of all participants and possible appearances by QUEEN.

Coverage will be provided at http://www.djwheat.tv

DON'T FORGET, if you'd like to participate join us on BNET Chat Channel: KingsOfTin!

Be sure to join us on twitter as well for news and updates!

I actually preferred wheats PoV since scoots just follows a player camera anyway, but I guess thats a minority opinion at this point. Gonna tune in!

Absolutely not, blue`. We try to take in all constructive criticism. Scoots is new to obs'ing SC2, so we're working on ways to improve the way we handle the obs. We've already had talks on how we can do things better. ^_^ Thanks.

Actually I think we're going to add an extra OBS to the games tonight who's purpose is to OBS just as if you were watching a streaming game. It's pretty tough to run production and have to be OBS at the same time so we plan on improving it! :D

I have to say that part of the appeal was watching Wheats POV. His general cluelessness made me lol many times. (remember he had not set his rally point of his hatch for 5 minutes straight?kept complaining about retarded drones, selecting hatch and not noticing that there was no rally point.)

I do feel the set up now can be great though, if wheat is failing in his base we can sometimes switch over to other POVs to watch some action or failings of other people like wack. Have to say that keeping it to the kings of tin POVs seems like a good idea though, i like being suprised as wheat and wacksteven go apeshit over ten random VRs someone secretly massed.

Another point i found was that the matchmaking gave them players of there skill level generally, meaning we would see a nice number of entertaining games, last time i felt the kings were outclassed a little too much. watching low-level games is fun, but not so much when it is just a rofl-stomp. Try to select some kings of your own if you are going to play customs imo.

Anyway keep it up i love the show.

I don't know where would be best to offer my services, but I'd be happy to run Obs for you, if need be.

No back handed compliments in this reply.

Anyway, your 3rd paragraph doesn't make much sense? Are you saying that the customs offered more or less skill? In the last KoT we had about the same W/L ratio as all the other shows so that is why it doesn't make any sense to me.

Love the KoT, djWheat. I don't always get to tune in, but I've loved the eps I have seen.

I do enjoy the games from Wheat's POV, but I think some extra variety can't be bad. Obviously everyone wants to see the pro beat people down in hilarious manner or save the team's butt, or what have you.

Give it a go and if the VODs aren't as fun I suppose it can't be any trouble to use less production right? lol.

In terms of hilarious maps, you should get in touch with ProdiG and/or use his Labyrinth of Wonders map. That map really... takes it to the limit.
The truth is usually just an excuse for lack of imagination.

Having someone observe who isn't streaming kinda sucks, you don't see what they select

First time I have watched this and it was pretty awesome.

Had a good time even though I didn't join in on assaulting my liver.
