Since now you have three languages and they'd also have to give the English version for the stream. | ||

The muta-play put him in pretty good positions, but he just overmade them  | ||

Do we need a finnish translator whenever Serral's in town? Special played super well today, congratulations! | ||

Special played super well today, congratulations! With the number of swedes who have been in the league throughout the years, they should always keep a Swedish translator on deck  | ||

You could say the same for any of the other foreigners who have been in the GSL and didn't have English as their first language. Sure, Special has been in there more than any of them individually but definitely not all of them combined. Maybe now that Special is really the one it might make sense but historically, GSL is just not on a scale where it's realistic for them to have translators for every language. | ||
