I never understood this fixation to being accepted by the mainstream so e-sports can be legitimate or whatever. Why does it have to be on ESPN to be a "real sport" or competition. Avid sports watchers aren't much of the fanbase for e-sports, stick to Twitch and keep it that way, we don't need to be on sports TV to be accepted by the public.

The Rise Of A Prodigy


With the guidance from Lan finalist, community caster, Liquiddota all-star poster and /r/dota2 personality Chris "comeh" W, the rookie of the year Owen "ODpixel" Davies has taken the Dota 2 scene by storm. By showcasing his excellent casting ability and usage of maymays in the longest Dota 2 game in history, C9 vs SFZ in Starladder 12 group stages, Davies quickly rose to fame and planted his roots in the casting game.

From left to right: comeh, ODpixel

James "2GD" Harding, owner of the casting studio The GD Studio saw the raw talent and hired Davies to cast ASUS Dreamleague in Stockholm, Sweden alongside names like Andy "Draskyl" Stiles, Shane "shaneomad" Shane and Jorien "Sheever" van der Heijden.

What the future holds for Davies is unclear, but recently fans have made a petition on Reddit to get Davies to The International 5, taking place in Seattle later this summer. Reddit user Karpaj said "100% agree, he is the best thing what happened dota in this year. Second was T-Rex Void. I really hope he will get invite to Seatle." while another user states "Will be nice to hear from a caster who doesn't sound like he's holding his nose.".

Meanwhile the UK native is perfecting his skill by casting the FACEIT Pro League, the premier inhouse league in the west.

Because all the dirty esports businessmen want to make loads of $$$$ and stupid business shit is the only way for them to line their pockets

TV makes it easier to get the bigger sponsors who are more rooted in previous advertising models. That is about it.
