Korean caster I've mentioned this a few times but didn't make a formal announcement about it. Golden, popular streaming personality and former Startale pro-gamer will be casting Clan Wars in Korean. While the Korean audience may not be as large as other regions, we feel it has been neglected for far too long by foreign events and efforts should be made to reach out to that audience. This is particularly important as Korean teams often have Korean sponsors which require ROI from the regional audience in order to be satisfied. Golden was recently outfitted with new audio equipment to assist him in this venture. Partnership with Day[9]tv and Huskystarcraft To give maximum possible exposure and value to our teams, SHOUTcraft Clan Wars has partnered with Day[9]TV and Huskystarcraft, the two biggest names in replay casting, to cover select games from Clan Wars. Day[9] will have access to all of our replays as source material for his dailies while Husky will be able to take his pick for his popular replays casts on his Youtube channel. We feel that the addition of these two additional exposure channels alongside the livestream and VoDs on the TotalBiscuit Starcraft channel will provide huge value to the teams and their sponsors. | ||

On Unfiltered you mentioned possibly having ToD as cocaster? Any legs to this? Great work by the way, I am so excited for these Clan Wars. | ||

I'd absolutely love to have ToD co-cast with me for some of the Clan Wars. That said considering we're going on at a US friendly time it might not work out so well for his sleeping schedule, we'll see. I'm absolutely happy to have pro-players with good mics on as analytical co-casters for this stuff, I just can't offer them any money because we're running this on a paper-thin margin, assuming we make any profit on it at all. | ||

 Petraeus? More like BETRAY US!Petraeus has bailed on ROOT and decided to join Team Who? and his downunder brethren for the Clan Wars. This does not mean he has left ROOT btw. | ||

If i understood right : - Total Biscuit will cast all games. - Day[9] Will cast games on his channel how he want to (so there can be duplicates. Like you can see the game cast by Day[9] OR total biscuit). And same with Husky ? | ||

Golden is just so awesome, ever since leaving ST he's gone out of his way to get more involved with the foreign fans and has created fun tournaments like the APM league and also other events in his initiative like the save Hyun matches, It's quite obvious he really does love this game, pretty sad we're going to lose him to the Korean military at the end of the year. | ||

Also, he's a fun guy and I'll check his stream to watch him cast in korean >_> | ||

I truthfully haven't seen to many games on Daedalus Point because coincidentally your Clan wars is one of the only tournaments I'm hyped up about these days, but I've seen more than enough Crazy borderline retarded maps in Brood War work out resonably better than you'd expect to just throw out a concept right away ( - like Tears of Moon, DMZ, Battle Royal maybe it's one of those maps where it's literally just broken) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/maps/201_Battle%20Royal.jpg) TvZ: 4-10 (28.6%) ZvP: 4-5 (44.4%) PvT: 0-0 (0%) Mirrors: 0 TvT | 71 ZvZ | 1 PvP Note the 77 ZvZs AGAIN I haven't actually seen more than 2-3 games on that map so I might be talking out of my ass. | ||

Well thus far according to TLPD, Terran have 0% winrate on that map against Protoss in GSL Code A and only 25% winrate against Zerg. The sample size is not large enough yet but it was certainly large enough for many Terran to lose their shot at Code S | ||

Still can't believe this is the guy who literally had a 75% winrate for 40 consecutive months. I'm personally fine with the KESPA switch, it was eventual, hurt, but I'm ok now , I'm fine with how things currently are with Sonic and SOSPA, but I'm kind of sad Flash didn't retire, people might hate on me for this, but Flash was literally God in Brood War and when the switch happened I just knew that however good he was he'd never compare to his Brood War self. | ||
