Today, It's Gosu eSports is pleased to announce the newest addition to the GoSu Family: full time GSL caster Erik "DoA" Lonnquist.

Scott "Rum" Ball, team manager for It's Gosu eSports, sees this newest addition to GoSu as the result of a long and growing friendship with DoA.

“I'm beyond excited to announce the addition of Doa to our family here at It's Gosu eSports. Not only is he a talented and dedicated individual, he's an individual I've had the pleasure of calling a good friend for the past several months," Ball said.

"Aside from his contributions to the team, he'll also be lending his casting skills to our popular in-house tournament events, as well. Working with him is going to be a true pleasure, not just for myself and our players, but for the media and writing staff of It's Gosu, as well. Doa is one of the warmest, kindest personalities I've met in all of eSports, and the opportunity to have him formally join us is one which we all find to be more than welcome.”

Lonnquist, who will be working closely with all aspects of It's Gosu eSports, stated that It's Gosu's atmosphere is what sold him on joining.

"I'm absolutely psyched to join It's Gosu!" Lonnquist said. "They've got a lot of exciting players and the atmosphere of the team really fits what I was looking for. I look forward to casting some great games to show off these guys' talents, and also look forward to working with the management in helping grow this great team. GoSu fighting!"

The executive management at It's Gosu eSports see the move as just one more step forward for the organization in leading the way as a growing name in eSports media.

"The chance to work with someone as talented, passionate, and dedicated as DoA is one which we all relish as a privilege and an honor," Aaron "Ayesee" Chambers said, speaking for the executive management of It's Gosu eSports.

"DoA is an amazing individual, and having him join Team GoSu is a direct result of the hard work and dedication of our team mananger, Rum, and the players who've worked so hard in expanding the name, integrity, and reputation of It's Gosu eSports. Not only will DoA contribute immeasurably to the inner workings of It's Gosu, the fact that he'll be lending his world-class casting talent to our events takes us one step closer to our goal of being a true leader in eSports, not just in terms of the competitive play of our teams, but in terms of growing as one of the foremost names in eSports media."

Awesome caster. Great pick-up for GoSu. Question though, why do teams hire casters? Doa isn't a player to my knowledge. Is it for promotional reasons?
