I'm fairly new to ESports but Catz doesn't seem to have achieved much as a player, and his team doesn't have any big players that won a lot of tournaments. I don't want to insult anyone, I'm just curious why they don't invite more qualified players on the show. Because he is popular and this is a show. Would've loved to hear their opinion on gameheart, but I guess that has to wait till next week.  | ||

Catz is qualified to talk about a lot of stuff when it comes to the struggles of putting a team together and he has been putting in work for Root for years now. | ||

Would also add that he has good experience from the NA side of things, knows about sponsor interactions / running a team. | ||

I'd say Catz is pretty much the perfect guest, a funny/charismatic high GM player who also has the unique viewpoint of someone who manages a team. If anything I wish there were more people like Catz so that JP could invite them on the show. | ||

No wai!!  and I never said it was dead. I said it was a lot more difficult to survive the first 10-12 minute drop aggression from a bio player but it was stronger obviously in the lategame with the addition of widow mines + hellbats. Both players were able to transition into mech safely because of both of their openers and didn't have to worry at all about early marine/marauder drops. | ||

They could have squeeze it in somewhere IMO. Kudos to Blizzard for the April fools joke. Anything David Kim, Dustin Browder, or SC2 developers getting made fun of is always fun to me (especially when they poke fun at themselves). I was actually a bit hyped when I saw "The Warhound is back!" on the SC2 window. | ||

Nothing against Catz (I do like him) but I prefer someone like Theognis simply so we can have a Terran to discuss stuff with Artosis and Moonglade. And personally, Artosis + Moonglade is the entire reason I watch the show. I just think having one of each race, in different regions is really good for the show. Brings up interesting discussions. | ||

Either way travel will be expensive. And mlg Columbus events have been super awesome. 1). Cali has much better ping to Korea. 2) Most of the gaming press is in Cali. 3) Blizzard is in Cali. 4) Shorter flights to/from Korea. | ||
