I hope my internet will be able to handle the stream this time around. So many awesome matches. Really sucks to live in a town that's bandwidth capped.

scumbag mlg: invite most famous pro gamer in the world, only one game broadcasted

jokes aside I would have preferred if we got to see more boxer games on day one. Way too much huk/ naniwa imo.

Didn't MLG Sundance message TotalBiscuit on Twitter a few months ago regarding having him come over to Columbus, Ohio to cast the (at the time) upcoming MLG there?

What happened to those plans? Did MLG not manage to sort out TotalBiscuit's visa issues which were (according to his post on TL) a gigantic mindfuck as it is or would they plan to introduce him in a later MLG event?

As for the current selection of casters:

Day[9] and djWHEAT is of course pretty good considering how passionately both feel about the game and the fact that Sean Plott is to many, a walking, talking Starcraft encyclopedia and djWHEAT is a good broadcaster and one who cares a lot about his work.

Husky and MrBitter.... I'm not so sure. Husky is surprisingly good but he seems more like he's trying to appeal mainly to the popular crowd whilst sacrificing in-depth analysis, whereas MrBitter is an odd choice for caster at a major event, considering his only huge achievement has been a web series where he recieves coaching sessions from pros and they go through their aspects of gameplay (12 Weeks With The Pros and The Next 12 Weeks.)

Put it this way, it's hardly the Tastosis we saw last time. Plus on MLG Columbus, I found the red and blue stream system didn't really work well, with both streams iirc showing the same thing.

Do you have HQ stream with ads if you don't pay or do you have to pay to not have 240p stream with ads like in Dallas? :&

Sundance is still working on it. He's got a friend in Immigration apparently. He tweeted about it a little while ago.

I'm pumped. Husky did a fantastic job in TSL 3 and I loved Mr. Bitter on NASL. Looking forward to MLG like always!

Happy about Bitter, Husky I'm less pleased about. I'll be staying on the Red stream most of the weekend. Except for DRG vs TLO. That'll be a good one.

I'd also like to know this, it'd help a lot.

Interesting to see all the votes included Korean players. They have definitely caught the attention of the majority of foreign spectators.

Glad to see Husky back at MLG. He has improved very much since last time and really deserves it. I think it is unreasonable to expect Tasteless and Artosis at ever MLG

KEEP MR. BITTER AWAY FROM CASTING ZERG!

Other than that, looking forward to it!

Awww no tastetosis, Khaldor, Totalbiscuit, or Husky/HD ;;

Also, what's up with the selected matches? TLO/Dongraegu over Haypro/TLO? MMA/Drewbie over Sheth/Sjow? MVP/Moonan over MVP/Kiwikaki? Really guys Guess people just really want to see the Koreans get some practice.

Idra vs. Boxer will probably be the match of the day for Friday. "Hi Grack" teehehehe
