HuK from canada to germany must cost him a hella lot of $, same for day9, artosis, etc. That would especially suck for those players to lose in first rounds and flying that far (especially if they paid for everything lol) I'm sure they were flown out by ESL or sponsors. | ||

I could be wrong though. | ||

I was thinking lack of knowledge of the game and language barrier as well. We would obviously all love Sean/Shawn to do the interview but im pretty sure this is one of the main ESL guys (he looks familiar). Whatever the case... this is by far the best tournament to date. Going to be hard for a large event to top these exciting games. | ||

(there was a post somewhere in a imba t thread blah blah etc- idra noted huk as being one of the few consistent players throughout the beta->retail) idra v huk trash talk seems just for show, dunno about artosis. | ||

I quite like him I believe this aswell, Also, there has to be this German speeking guy, because the event is in German and only the commentating is English, which is questionable but ok, since it is actually hosted in Germany :> | ||

I could be wrong though. I believe they win something for every game they win and the group winners also get some money just for advancing. Im not exactly sure where I read this cause Im kind of sleepy right now. | ||

i think day9 and d.apollo need to iron out a few kinks in their commentary, they both like to talk over each other a lot probably because they're both used to solo casting. | ||
