Show was great, congrats on a very successful reboot. Slasher was frustrating but everything else was great and if there could be episodes with Artosis and Nony it would be the best of both worlds.

Great show, and comon JP: "I guess it was good"? Show some confidence man, it was brilliant. Quality discussions through and through from many interesting perspectives of the SC2 scene can't go wrong.

Not bad JP. Like someone mentioned, it's lacking star power, but the cast today definitely surprised me. People complain about it not being humorous enough, but people forget that the majority of old SotG wasn't laughs for 3 hours either. The great thing about the old SotG was not the humor but the chemistry, and that'll come as the show gets rolling.

Now, all you have to do is do something like this on a weekly basis (for real!) and most people will be happy ^^.

Thank you so much for bringing the show back! Loved the topics and the talk. Only Geoff was missing, but i understand his reasons for not participating at this point.

Keep it up, JP, we love you!

Was it worth the wait?

Absolutely. If you can, get Apollo whenever possible. I loved him. qxc was great, if he'd like to stick around as the oft-requested Terran pillar I'd love to have him.

I thought this was the best SOTG for a while. Maybe because they had some real topics to talk about, due to the recent drama but also because of the interval since the last show.

I'd be happy about having a european State of the game and a american State of the game, because there's a completely different feeling to todays show, compared to the usual shows with Incontrol, Nony & Artosis. Each pillar composition is good in it's own way.

Great episode! Not as funny as when it has Geoff, Tyler, and Artosis but I was very happy the whole episode didn't just turn in to a 2 hour argument about the latest drama around stephano. The slayers drama got a lot of air time, but its a pretty big story with a lot of details and facets that was actually worth covering in depth. It reminded me of the original state of the games where the subject was actually the game of starcraft and not the TMZ of starcraft.

Loved the show pre-Slasher!

I hope to see Apollo, QXC, and Artosis discussing Starcraft 2 and HotS in the future.

Excellent show, I would have to take at least five old sotg and put them together to get as much actual intelligent and rational discussion as we got in this one episode.

Really want to buy Apollo and QXC as regulars.
