“We always put a lot of time and effort into our EG MCSL finals weekends, and we think that the production quality of our finals broadcasts is up there with the best in the industry. Since the spectator experience our previous broadcasts offered had been received so positively by the community, we felt that now would be a good time to add an in-person component to the EG MCSL’s spectatorship,” remarked Alexander Garfield, CEO of Evil Geniuses. “Since we love StarCraft, and BarCraft, and delicious food, and ever-flowing libations, BarCraft at Chao Bistro was the obvious choice to partner with for this finals weekend, and we’re so excited that they’re helping to support it! ”

Very cool. I think Painuser would be the commentator, as EG are a cert to get through to the final weekend.
|
Mmm... what if we get IdrA to commentate his own game

"Fuck this game."

He would say: "I f***ed that up, made a mistake here, that control was awful, i missed an injection there and I've won, because this game is broken!" Or something else in this direction I guess =)
I'm really excited for the finals, I'm gonna cheer for my beloved mousesports and hope for gosu performances. This is gonna be awesome!

Dude, this is a pro tournament by EG, not ladder xD

I understand in the announcement it says "The event, which will feature the top four StarCraft II teams from the sixth season of the MCSL, will be hosted live by Marcus “djWHEAT” Graham and an announced guest commentator." Sadly too many organizations are hosting "live" replays and VOD's of games 2-3 weeks old. Just want a little clarification.
Games gonna be Live, Tape Delay, or Replays? Looking forward to this!
|
will try to watch all i can..have to study that weekend.. wish i lived near a barcraft.. or that we could make one in Argentina..
|
Looks to be an exciting event. Will definitely check it out, if only in anticipation of IdrA commentary ^^

Second that. Idra is a great caster.

Sounds like from replays but with the casters casting the games live at the event.

it's really odd that all the comments above are more excited about hearing idra's commentary rather than seeing idra play :|
|
Looks like PuMa and Demulim put the team on their backs and carried tem
|
Hell yes, Chao Bistro is already awesome, I am all over this event!

Yup. Similar to what Idra did last season (I know they didn't get through to the final 4 last time), he had so many wins then, but now he was distinctly average.
|
damnnnnnnnnnnnn I wanna be at that barcraft
fuck D:
|
|
|
Sweet, sounds like a lot of fun
|
The EG Masters Cup has been a blast to watch. Previous seasons they ruined it completely by displaying ally chat in the 2v2 games (so you always knew who won, as you only see ally chat from the team who recorded it and the winner sent in the replay) but that seems to be fixed now. Very much looking forward to the conclusion and I do feel it is a shame TL isn't participating.
|
IdrA casting would be awesome!
|
Yes yes yes just moved to Seattle!

even when idra states that he has no idea what they are doing, his little comments convey more information than most casters ; /

Doesn't that make sense? His play has been mostly unimpressive as of late.

You missed Idra vs NamhciR I take it?
Idra has been seriously underperforming in this tourney. I'd love to see him get some wins.

Maybe not the right place to point it out, but I think all sixjax-results should be changed to 0-4. As it is, teams who receive def-wins from sixjax have a big advantage over teams who had to play the matches.

well the only thing pro about NamhciR is his cheese

Looking at the Liquipedia entry, someone needs to make a tool that pulls out the individual results/performances (or do the busywork themselves).
I'd love to have stats for each individual player.

Will be checking it out, there's been a few interesting matches so far.

IdrA is actually a very intelligent and analytical caster, one of the best in my opinion. You've obviously never heard him if this is what you think he sounds like...

Btw that standings page is incorrect... Fnatic is 4th with 15 points, Dignitas has 14.

Nice, should be a fun event.

compLexity will make a dent in the standing next season with their new additions.
