The casters are not my favourite (Apollo, where art thou? T.T), but ToD has very good insight and Kaelaris does a pretty good job.
Bunny played so bad against ForGG though in some of the games, unfortunately. It's like he was distracted or nervous or something, his multi-tasking was really lacking at times.
Probably nerves. As far as I know this is probably the biggest tournament he's ever played in. Can't really blame him for being that nervous. Has he ever gone to like Dreamhack or anything before? Even online this might be the most people he's ever played in front of.

I would think that he should be more relaxed against ForGG seeing as how ForGG is pretty accomplished when you consider his BW background but I can understand being nervous overall about seeing that many people watching although I dunno how he would know that's the case unless he checked lol

hmm really great games.
I think viewership can be greater when they are not running against champions league

I feel like it was probably safe to assume that a lot of people would be watching the premier division of WCS EU, especially on the first day, unless he thought it was going to flop

He qualified for IeSF in Korea last year, but went out in the RO16 against monchi 2-1, though monchi went on to defeat Squirtle and win the event that time ^^ He has also played in many Danish offline events recently, and won most, if not all of them.
I guess it might be because I've mostly only watched ForGG and LucifroN recently, and he's still far from being as good as they are, but there were times when he could have just built a few missile turrets to deal with ForGG's drops instead of splitting his army to defend. I wonder how soon pro teams will start offering him a salary (since he's on the Academy squad of Copenhagen Wolves, I'm guessing he gets no salary.)

Viewership was really good though no? 28,000 on the English stream, 4000 on the Russian stream, 3000 on the German stream, 600 on the Polish stream and 200 on the Spanish stream...really good for RO32 if you ask me.

Loved every bit of the games, cast and stream. A lot to improve, but I can see WCS EU climbing up fast to be the best league after GSL when ESL keeps improving.

plus the French stream (1500-2k viewers?) that wasn't listed on teamliquid for some reasons I don't know

Btw, which Koreans playing WCS EU are playing from KR with latency?

God that fOrGG chant video is so good. The best thing about it is HiyA randomly at like 30 sec. Man I've missed it.

Only MMA and MVP afaik.
Forgg was playing from France and Shuttle plays from east coast NA, which is much less laggy than from KR.

Europe is kind of big, hard to arrange for an Offline tournament on the scale of GSL Code S/A on such short amount of time in Europe and have it not fail miserably

free vods? that is awesome!!

Playing a very league over a long period of time and making players come and leave every game? Not feasible.
