That's great to see given that ordinarily no one plays the test mod.

3 QF's going on at the same time, from the 4 official casters listed, one is casting wc3 and the other 3 are on the same match. I guess they are just langauge casters and dont have to cast the other matches, but still sucks and happens too often

He showed clem v Geralt at the start though, thought he would stay in that match like all other casters. There would be 2 matches at the same time max I thought Wardiii said, so weird the players couldnt wait a bit longer. That series was minutes away from finishing

TvT final and TTPP top 4! You don't see that very often! But the Z lineup would probably have to be stronger to draw strong conclusions.
