Compared to the rest of the world or at least those who understands english, it's the most retarded thing ever to do it in german -.-' I really don't get it and there are also more people who understands english compared to german as well, when do those germans learn to join up with the rest of the world and do a proper casted tourney in english.. - If it ever happens And yes I know HSC is in english, but that is also the only one I can think of. But I'm really looking forward to that day. | ||

But I'm really looking forward to that day. The thing is, many german people are just too lazy to listen to English casts. The second point is, some/ many of the sponsors of TakeTV are more Germany-focused. NeedforSeat's main business is in german-speaking countries, XMG just recently opened a UK-store and ROCCAT is also more known in Germany than in the rest of the world (I feel like this is true, don't have any proof). I know this says Nvidia Cup, but I still think the second reason might be very important. Also, the casters (NarutO and Salt, I guess) might/are not the best at speaking (!!) English and their casts are MUCH funnier when they can say what they want to say not what only what they know. Everytime I listen to a TaKeTV cast I crack up as they're are just funny and are totally laid back and don't give a fuck. It's just a couple of friends hanging out and talking about a game and not completely serious casting. | ||

Additional Take has a very strong german core community which follows him all the time. Usually Take casts several cups per week. And he can cast/entertain much better in German than in English. Non-German people usually don't know that or they neglect it. So Take makes his most money with his german community and german based sponsors. Also Take feels uncomfortable casting in english cause in his opinion his english is limited and he cannot express things as in German. | ||

Even though XMG, Roccat and NFS are focused on Germany/german-speeking countries, a tournament like this could help them get better brand recognition in other markets as well. Also the main sponsor of this tournament seems to be NVidia, which is a global brand. When something like 20 out of the 28 players that are invited are foreigners (foreigners as compared to Germany, not SK) it really is crazy not to have an English stream. | ||

I dont get it, you would get tripple the viewers casting in English on the main stream, only one i could see that hurt would be the very few germans that dont know any english. you could even allow it to be cast by someone else in english while you stream to those that prefer german. | ||
