Keep the rage to a minimum. This includes wait times between games, music, and balance. Fair warning to all. | ||

SC2 made them famous and big, but I get the feeling that they just want to see eSports succeed. Especially considering Wheat's been in tons of different titles already and Rachel's been doing LoL for several tourneys now. Tbh wheat was probably more known in the quake days. | ||

No. There was an EG in LoL, but they were unaffliated(Epik Gamer). | ||

I mildly hope TSM get stomped, just as a shake-up to NA complacency re: practise etc. The problem is that if TSM does get stomped season 3 hugely discourages doing anything other than playing in your region. TSM stomping on and dominating the NA scene won't make them become better and there won't be a reason for them to travel a ton and practice with Koreans and Chinese teams because of how S3 is structured. | ||

Since Quake days esports was still pretty marginalized. Still, I respect 'em both simply because they're doing what they love and it's good for esports to have some well-known personalities. | ||

Phreak works directly for them as their talky guy, rivington is the only caster who makes analytic mistakes at a higher rate than him so it makes him look better by comparison.

Dig and CLG.NA got rolled by TSM at NA, and TSM got rolled by Blaze (the weaker Azubu team even) at MLG Summer. It's not about sneaky strats and "omg pushing towers down op," since from the actual good games this tourney the real top teams just minmax every team fight. | ||
