Ahh okay - the dates on the Liquipedia for the finals must be wrong then.
So I'm guessing the 3rd place match and grand final will be on the same day yeah? I can't see dates anywhere at the moment.

Bow down before your king peasants! 1. This thread and your tweets had no impact. This decision was actually made some time before this and I cannot discuss the details. 2. This could possibly mean that XKCD and I will not be able to return as casters for this tournament. You're loyalty here is to a brand instead of to people who are passionate about the game. It's completely a sellout. The conditions for them even getting to cast the last two games is disgusting and entirely unfair. I can't discuss what transgressed as long as I'm employed by Afeeca, but will make it clear they are a top notch company and their staff have been amazing throughout this situation. I am really sorry if this caused you issues. It was never my intention :/ This thread caused me a hell out a lot of stress, but again, this is a situation that can't be controlled. Let me just put it this way, someone out there is forcing me to share what I consider the epitome of my involvement with Brood War. The only people I want to share this moment with is my co-caster AmazingXKCD and the small and incredibly hard working Brood War Staff.

Good news! I liked his casts on GomTV.

ill be tuning in for the first time in a few years with some friends and am v excited I take good advice when I see it. I fixed my post. I more meant, there are many people who actually helped contribute to the scene and get me to a point where I could professionally cast a tournament of this level. And I would gladly share the spotlight with any of them over two casters who have contributed nothing for the past 4-5 years.

Haven't watched BW in years but I can't wait for this.

Maybe we should instead consider that there probably wouldn't have been an english bw scene at all in the first place to draw a legacy from if it wasn't for them. Alternately, having the casting archon involved in this may give you and your co-casters a lot more attention and opportunity than what you had previously.
Anyways I'm happy this thread exists because I didn't know any of this stuff was happening at all. Are there VODs of old matches so that I can try to catch up before this happens?

but you're right they could totally get more attention from this.

This would be the most awesome thing ever if they were announced the casters at the beginning of the tournament. But the difference is, we applied and we hired on as paid casters. We have been doing this cast since October. Now just two games left and we have to share this experience with them? It's like asking a player to share their 1st place trophy with someone else. I really want to be happy that Brood War is getting enough attention to bring back guys who contributed so much to building the international community and in fact I really am. But my pride has really been kicked to the curb because of how this transpired.

So, no more easy money for Artosis and the shrinking SC2 in Korea and worldwide? I am not against this guy pumping out SC2 scene but sometimes he shows some condescendant behavior about BW, I am for sure not watching him.
