Sick caster line-up! Cant wait for another dreamhack 
|
Great casters! Can't wait for Dreamhack
|
Sick line. I really didn't think DH would be inviting even Day9. Thanks for proving me wrong! (Yes i know Day9 was in the last Dreamhack and all that, but still)
|
Woot! Artosis! Another thing of many to look forward to at DH!
|
Okay I don't wanna get banned but imagine the long-neck-reaction guy here. Tastosis at Dreamhack? Sweeeeeeeet.
Blasphemy that they are listed so late tho.
|
Day9 and TB has been great int he past DH. Im stoked to see this sick lineup!
|
Day9/Tastosis all the way! :D Great to see the guys :D amazing caste line-ups
|
Really awesome, haha basically took all the casters available ^^
|
|
|
Looking sick! To bad I live so far up north.
|
This is going to be so fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3<3<3<3

I kinda like MrBitters casting, plus he is a frigging funny guy! Looking forward to seeing all of these casters! They are all great in their own way

Can we stop ruining events by having totalbuscuit casting, greatly appreciated.

With the inclusion of Tastosis casting Dreamhack will be the best event to watch this year :DDD
|
When are they announcing the rest of the players?
|
Jesus Christ, I guess I'm not going to prepare well for exams that weekend.
|
cmon apollo tasteless DO EEEEEEEEEET

oh my gawd,sick caster line up! but...
ROTTERDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM i love u bro.dont be sad.
|
mrbitter is now basically a standard of big tournaments. This is a good thing for SC2 and ESPORTS
|
sick casters line up! Often line up is used for the players but in this case it's validated.
|
|
|
Great casters! Just wished rotterdam would get invited together with mrbitter, such a nice.combo.

Great lineup, really looking forward to tastosis and apollo/day casting together again.
|
|
|
best caster lineup you can get!
also , its the weekend after i finish my exams =)
|
well....there goes my productivity for the rest of the month.
YEEEEAAAAAH!!!1
|
was hoping to see rotterdam aswell, I imagine its day9+bitter combo.
|
|
|
Wow. This tournament has truly the potential to crush ipl/mlg/gsl. soo exciteted
|
First time for tastosis in dreamhack? I can't wait .
|

Oh my god Apollo9. brb nergasming!
I love Apollo9/Tastosis, this is going to be sooo good <3
|
Awesome! Dreamhack productions are the shit! Can't wait!
|
Day 9 and apollo <3 hopefully together again, dreamhack summer was awesome because of them! :D
|
Studio experts. I like it.
|
no Rotterdam at MLG, no Rotterdam at Dreamhack. Why does the world hate him?
|
Better lineup than MLG, in my opinion. No DJ Wheat, which is a huge part of it...I'll miss Husky, but no complaints with Day9 instead.
|
Can't get much better than this. Dreamhack showing they really want to stay in the vanguard of e-Sports. Good job ^ - ^
|
Yep, pretty much all my favorite casters right there.
|
Oh my god! TASTOSIS<333 They said they have always wanted to goto dreamhack, this is going to be awesome!!
|
great lineup of casters but i miss rotterdam
|
Where are milkies and moletrap when we most need them?
|
The best part.. IM GOING TO BE THERE!... pretty please sign my shirt tastosis!!
|
again mrbitter but no rotterdam? son i am disappoint :/

so you simply decided to book all casters : ) ? nice
|
OMG. I go to dreamhack from France, it's my first time in sweden and I'm so pumped o//
|
day9, tastosis, apollo...
this is going to be the best dreamhack ever!
|
My 4 favourite casters at the same event o.o
|
This will be a crazy good tournament. The arena, the casters, just everything will make me vomit rainbows for hours and hours.

I would guess so, hopefully they won't change much from DHS2011 where they had a couple of language specific streams.
Wouldn't bet a leg on it though.
|
A bit sad to see Mr. Bitter without RotterdaM, but I love TB, and the rest of the lineup as well. So stoked for DHWinter.
|
YESsss im gonna meet tasteless! :D
any event with tastosis and day9 is bound to be epic
|
Tastosis... MrBitter... Apollo... at the same event?
I have a huge caster boner right now.

wonder if it is going to be apollo and tb or apollo and day9.. both duos great together!... )) im just happy either way!
|
nice casters, personally i dont like totalbiscuit (rotti takes his place )
|
|
|
Those casters, that venue ..... This is going to be AWESOME!!!
|
200 SEK TO ENTER? DreamHack why do you do this to yourselves...
|
That's really a great line-up. Would love to see DJWheat there to cast with apollo. Their casting at IPL was really great.
|
Awesome venue, and of course that caster list pleases pretty much everyone.
|
wow that is some sick ass stadium. is that the prototype or is it raelly being used?
|
Shit just got real!!! I am so insanely happy I got tickets for this event. This will be awesome!

Not a huge fan of MrBitter, but the lineup of casters look amazing. Can't wait to see this. TB and Apollo is a great duo.
|
where is Rotti : '( ?
Casting archon ftw !

SICKSICKSICK Best tournament of 2011 EZ!
|
WOO tasteosis has arrived! This is going to be so awesome! Every stream is going to be great...
|
Oh yeaaah! I will finally get to see Tastosis live
|
200 SEK isn´t that much!. I´d rather pay 200 SEK for 8h+ DH.W entertaining then watching a crappy live artist for 900+SEK.

Great event looking forward to it Awesome casters too (tastosis yay!). but why Total Biscuit? He's cool and all and he's good with his world of warcraft i bet.. but isn't he like gold-plat at sc2? Every time i watch him cast he doesn't really seem to know what he's talking about. He has a cool accent but he doesn't know anything about sc2? Just for future reference, maybe leave him for shoutcraft invitational, craft cup light etc. and maybe keep real casters for bigger events like dreamhack? ;o idk~
|
Wooow, what a caster line up. I cannot wait untill dreamhack!
|
Wow, I think this is goint to be the best European SC2 tournament ever. It might be on the same level with edition it might even be on the same level as an MLG. The next 2 weekends will be eSports weekends once again!
|
It seems weird to me that the community draws so much attention to the casters. I don't give a fuck who casts the Lakers v. Celtics, or Red Sox v. Yankees, you just know it's going to be a good sporting event. It actually is quite sad, now that I think about it, that for many people in this community casters seem to come before the players and actual games.
|
Will 2GD be there (and not just bloodline champions plz T_T)?

Another person who doesn't know anything about what I do and thinks I still play WoW. It gets old, I tell ya (I quit WoW over 6 months ago). Sigh
|
I'm guessing Day9 and MrBitter casts together and Apollo and Totalbuiscuit? Possibly best set of casters for any tournament so far. Dreamhack going completely balls to the wall!
|
wow three of my four favorite casters, casting my favorite esports event.
|
probbaly the 6 best casters
this is gonna be awesome
|
Amazing line up of casters but I am sad that rotti still gets no love
|
That stage looks sick, Dreamhack always has such sick production should be awesome.
|
|
|
Day9, Artosis and Tasteless at DreamHack
Oh dear god i need to be there :D!!!
|
F**k me!
This makes me so sad, my plans of going to this DH got smashed since my friends couldnt come beacause of their stupid families and some god damn vacation to Thailand. This would be so fucking sweet!
|
would prefer husky with day9, they seem to have good chemistry but no biggie... looking pretty good
|
Apollo =) MrBitter =) only miss Rotti :-/
|
nearly the best casting line up just need rotti
|
Wow I didn't expect this, thought it would be 1 english stream w/ TB and Apollo, nice work Dreamhack!
|
Wow, all my favorite casters will be there <3
|
personally, totalbuscuit doesnt fit as a starcraft caster anymore, rotterdam + mr. bitter would have been
a lot better in perspective of great double commentary ;P
anyways, dreamhack is always a great event and im looking forward to it
|
|
|
Dreamhack never failing to impress
|
I would have prefered Rotti, too, as he isnt in providence, too ;(
But we have to enjoy what we get, I wont listen to TB and will be fine, happy to hear to Day9/Bitter
|
Why does Dreamhack winter look so fucking good when i have no money?
I swear to god if they announce a few more top tier koreans in the player lineup im gonna have to start whoring myself out
|
Hmm, not really happy with TB instead of Rotti.
With TotalBiscuit being there and not RotterdaM I don't see like every couple being a nice couple.
Obviously there is Tastosis, and Day[9]Apollo has been the face of DH Winter last year, and then BitterDam rounding off, but now that's not really there, and it will probably be TB&Apollo which is also kinda nice, but I have no clue about MrBitter & Day[9] together, and Bitterdam is imo the best casting couple atm ^^.
E; Saw TB's post just now. Well I guess we'll have to see how Bitter and Day[9] mash together.

I'm sort of concerned about this trend of Bitter ditching Rotterdam to do his own thing, maybe couples counselling is in order.

Agreed. Call me a blasphemer and cart me off to the bonfire, but I prefer Bitterdam to Tasteosis. I still can't find it in me to truly like Tasteless as a caster.
|
Omg! So happy that Tastosis is coming too! :D
I have a LAN/seat-ticket but I can't find the option to pay 1 SEK for Dreamarena access anywhere..? :S Is it possible to book a seat or do I pay the one SEK at the LAN?
|
Amazing caster list. Providence then Dreamhack Winter is a Starcraft 2 orgasm in one week.

Rotterdam seems like the kind of guy who'd love an open relationship.
I hope 6 casters means there are going to be a lot more streams, I'd hate for Tastosis and Day[9] to get flown all the way over and then end up seeing each set of casters only for a small amount of time.
edit: I'm severely tempted to fly over for DH, I wonder how much that, plus a week visiting the rest of Sweden will cost.
|
Great casters, Totalbiscuit might not be brilliant with knowing all the strategies and such, but he is entertaining and dApollo or Day9 can easily fill whatever deep insight TB is missing.
|

Me neither. I can only find the option to pay 200SEK. I mailed them, just have to wait and see .

i enjoy mr bitter's cast.
|
All of them are amazing. Astounding line-up!
|
Where is Rotterdam
|
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Not Tastosis... PLEASE
You're making it impossible for me to refuse this trip and i'm really trying.

it says in the topic that it will be 3 official streams and since i'ts a 64man tournament with double groupstage, lots of frickin games will be casted probably

Haha, honestly I hate it that Rotti won't be there too. There's no one in the world I'd rather work with than Kev.
Truth of the matter: I was a last second replacement for Wheat, who was unable to attend. (Hope it's okay for me to spill the beans on that)
|
Great Caster list; I personally like the ABiscuit combo and Tastosis is just baller, Day[9] and Rotterdam are also great, never seen the two together though.
I however cannot understand the community's very ferocious(?) reactions to casters(hating or loving), we are here to enjoy the game and the players. There are tons of unknowns in the community that deserve the attention of you guys more than casters and we should really be looking forward to instead of bashing casters that ones we don't like.

Well good luck casting, always enjoyed your casts ^^, too bad for Wheat ;<.

awesome lineup
finally we have a good event with great players great casters AND a good system (and the foreign player pool is clearly better than mlg imo just not that many koreans but thats actually not a bad thing i guess)
sad to see that rotti and mrbitter are not casting together because if they were we would have an even sicker lineup (is he caster only for esl or something or is there another reason he never casts other events)

I hate to say it, but Totalbiscuit is one of my least favorite casters. His accent gets really boring and he doesn't ever seem to stay on topic (cue iNcontrol rant on State of the Game). I guess he isn't the worst (Kelly might take that one) but he certainly isn't that good either.
But good to see Tastosis and Day[9]! :D Should be a great tournament!

lol wtf
you quote a post that someone got banned for and support it with making an even worst post? this is pretty ridiculous
if you dont like TB (or Kelly) you dont have to diss them because of their accents or something but instead just be reasonable and give some constructive criticism or dont post at all
|
Omg.. Mr Bitter is going to cast and i really don't like the way he does it!...
Just kidding :D I love all the casters and especially Mr Bitter that sacrafices his life for the swarm.
|
Well, I could live without Apollo or TB but MrBitter, Day9 and Tastosis can only make this another great Dreamhack. Definitely stoked for it.
|
I think the massive boner this gave me might be hurting esports.
|

Tastosis and Day 9, YES :D
|
Personally im more interested in the players not the casters.
|
For all the haters who hate X caster, there will be 2 other streams you can watch. So I think everyone can enjoy the different casters, and their different styles.
The caster list for this event looks absolutely awesome. Should maybe make fourth stream : Rotterdam + guest player
|
Where is James "2GD" Hardings?

I guess i wont be doing anything on thanksgiving weekend

Why do these posts never have dates in them. I know its not hard to go find out when it is but this bugs me slightly!

go day9+apollo best dualcast
|
Apollo9 and Tastoisis, I'm so pumped for DH:W
|
Awsome lineup they include almost all my favorite casters. I really want to watch every game.
Imo there is only 1 problem: the scedule on day 3, runs from 10:00 to 23:30, that shouldnt really help te pro's considering fatigue. The scedule runs so long because there are other games finals in between the starcraft finals wich streches out the day unnessaceraly long. Im not sure why though..
The same "problem" happened with IPL3(LOL final inbetween) wich IPL admit it was a problem and promised to not do it again.
Anyways I dont want to be to negative because I'm really pumped for this and I wouldnt care if I had to wait till 3 am to watch the finals!

Why must you hype so much Dreamhack, WHY?
I'm about to explode with anticipation!

It's a 64-player tournament. I doubt the players, except BYOC people perhaps, has to play more then 5-6 games a day.

this thread gave my a raging b*ner, looking forward to dreamhack and the arena

This is going to be amazing. I feel lucky to live in Sweden when we get such a great event.
|
Where is Rotterdam the best player/caster in SC2
But awesome lineup nonetheless.
|
Tastosis[9] will be sick!

Tastosis so geekishly funny most of the times! Awkward some other times. Entertaining always!
|
This will be sick...no other word to describe it

Give me Apollo & Day9 together, that would be amazing.

Yes, I did mean MrBitter, stupid mistake, and it will be weird hearing him cast without Rotterdam. I do believe however that Rotterdam and Day[9] have casted before... at an IEM if I remember correctly.

Mr Bitter but no Rotterdam ? WHAT GIVES !
|
Awesome casters, I really wanna see Day 9 and Artosis cast together 
|
Plott brothers, day9 artosis and day9 apollo. make. it. happen.
|
Would love to see some caster mix and match at Dreamhack personally. Curious as to how a Day[9]/TotalBiscuit or Apollo/Artosis combination would work out
Super psyched! :D
|
It's a great list of casters, but I can't help being a little disappointed there is no Rotterdam.
|
Looks good except for totalbiscuit =/
Hope to see some good games
|
No Rotterdam? I disappoint.
Is there invited player list yet?

DH looking better and better.

2GD is probably busy with BC at DHW, it is after alll "his" game. It would be nice if he managed to host the expert studio tho.

Hell Yea, Line EM UP !!! ... great casters ...love it <3
|
Inviting Rotterdam would probably require Day9 to be dropped, considering Bitterdam are a duo, Tastosis are a duo and TotalApollo are a duo. Rotter/Day9 wouldn't work because they both speak at 200 km/h in the action. That's just my reasoning though.
|
Awesome! Sick caster lineup! Im soooo pumped cant wait to be at the finals~
Am I the only one that think its a good call to not bring in Rotterdam...
mabey its just me but i cant stand that german-english accent (altho he's a good sc2-caster, so no offence)

Great caster line up, I'm really happy that Tastosis are going to be casting a DreamHack.
|
Ok, this is going to be insane.
|
Day[9] and Total Biscuit FIGHTING!! Also Mr Bitter, Tastosis and Apollo are amazing! DreamHack keeps getting better and better!
|
Apollo and Total Biscuit = Code A level Casters
Day9 and Tastosis = Code S level Casters
|
I just wanted to add that I will also cast the semifinals and the finals (In Swedish)
|
I want to see the plott brothers cast together!

Am I the only one that think its a good call to not bring in Rotterdam...
mabey its just me but i cant stand that german-english accent (altho he's a good sc2-caster, so no offence)
No, although he is a fellow Dutchie, i can´t stand his accent.
Lots of people here have that problem, everybody can speak English, very few can speak it without that horrible accent.

Nice going dreamhack I'll try to make it there!
|
Khaldor/Rotterdam > Mr. Bitter.
Tasteosis is obviously a fantastic addition though, I will be watching them almost exclusively.

o.O You don't like Khaldor?
Overall I like the casters No hatin' ... But I wonder why they would take Day9 (with no über hyping Husky) and MrBitter (without storytelling RotterDaM) ... But for all I know, this might work out great :D
|
Such a good caster list, I can't wait for this!! and MrBitter <3, shame Rotti isn't there, those 2 together are my favourite
|
All my favourite casters at one event? This is going to be awesome.
I love all 6 of them, Tastosis is the best duo rivaled by Apollo and TB.
Mr. Bitter and Day9 are both really awesome as well, not a single caster is missing to make it perfect in my eyes.
Slightly off topic:
The picture of TB is really unfortunate, he looks like a fat mongoloid scumbag instead of the slightly stocky but sexy beast he is in reality.
|
The only one missing is DjWheat, bitter out wheat in. Sure MrBitter is a awesome caster but in my eyes no casters can stop the DJWheat&Day[9] combo!
|
Artosis+Incontrol would make the, without a doubt, best caster combo in the world... When incontrol retires soon (IF he does, perhaps he suddenly becomes good) I really hope he decides to become a caster. Incontrol + Artosis would be sickkkk :/
|
Other than TotalBiscuit, a fantastic casting line up. Dreamhack is quickly becoming my premiere international tourney. Well done dudes.
|
SO pumped! Travelling more than 100 miles for this! PEWPEWLAZ0R!
|
great casters! i only wish they would replace TB, i really hate listening to TB. He has no knowledge of the game.
|
A little bit disappointed that once again Rotterdam isn't at an event which I think he has every right to be at. He's a great caster and he and Mr Bitter word so well together. They're extremely entertaining and as long as there isn't a Terran in the game they're really knowledgeable. So yeah, If I could make one change I would drop TB and bring in Rotterdam.
|
Great caster lineup, although i REALLY dislike total biscuit, well i hope i can choose between different streams just like mlg so i dont have to ever watch him.

I have nothing against you or your casting, but you really need a lesson at the internetz it seems. You do realize your attempts at defending yourself just keept fueling the haters, right? It's like you want them to continue....
Ask yourself how fun it is to keep on hating on someone while getting completely ignored. Exactly, its not any fun at all. But replying to them you're giving them what they want: a reaction. Hating when nobody cares about you is boring as fuck, hating and getting people mad about it is very rewarding (to some).

Having been around TL since SC2 release, I've seen a fair amount of hate-trains. There was one on Tasteless rather early, Husky also got a pretty descent amount after what I think was an appearance at a very early MLG. HD gets some from time to time. None of them has ever said a word about it, and none of theirs has been going on anywhere as long as yours have. As I said in my edited post, its boring as fuck to hate without getting a reaction, getting a reaction is rewarding to them.

Correlation does not equal causation. The hate will always be around when a part-time caster who can't get past gold league continues to desecrate their hallowed halls. But, they'll always be a tiny vocal minority. It really isn't a problem, I like to poke fun at them.
|
Personally I don't like TB's casting style, but I can live with it. Looks like it's going to be a great event, hopefully we get to find out more invites soon!
|
I feel like I'd be really stupid not going there now, living in Sweden and all...
|
Best caster line up?
uh huh!
|
change totalbiscuit for Rotterdam and we have a dream team!
|
Oh great, another tournament with tasteless and artosis. weee...
which means they won't cast GSL round of 8 nor the semi finals....
why dont they invite moletrap and doa instead? plz?
they take the best casters to cast DH, and keep the worst casters to cast the most important e-sport event.
i don't wanna live in this world anymore!
edit: and when they are finally back to korea, they waste half their casting whinning about how tired and sleepy they are, and how terrible jetlag is, yadda yadda. Do I really need to listen o that? is it too much to ask for some professionalism?
|
Day9, tasteless, and Artosis what am I in heaven?
|
Really awesome lineup. Shame Wheat couldn't be there but Bitter is just as awesome. Assuming they stick the normal "pairs" and have Apollo + TB together will be interesting to see Bitter and Day9 casting together.
Looking forward to this lots.
|
Filled up Kinnarps with Tastosis casting... wow.
Weird that MrBitter is both going to this and MLG while RotterdaM isn't in for any of them :/

Yay! I love Day9/Bitter/Apollo/Tastosis (sorry TB no offense but you are just not the one for me)
|
Awesome lineup of casters! That new arena is just amazing wish I could be there
|
This is sick! I've been on DH the last two times and it is awesome. So sad that I can't go now. Tastosis and MrBitter <3
|
missing djwheat but still very very sick lineup.
|
Great lineup. DH will be amazing.
Sad that Wheat cannot make it. He would've been a great addition combo-wise.
|
Great lineup of casters. Well done dreamhack!
|
Awww they invited Mr. Bitter.... he's biased towards zerg. But in all reality these casters are exceptionally good I hope they keep the normal pairings Tastless and Artosis work well together as well as Apollo and TB
|
SSSIIIIIICCCCK!! Cant wait! :D
|
Lovely lineup. TB is a really good caster for those new to the sport and showing some friends his casts has made them more interested in playing/watching SC2.
The rest are great for those of us who play and watch more regularly.
|
Day9 and Apollo, all I wanted to hear. They are the essential Dreamhack casters for me.
Don't really see the need to bring Tastosis since they "belong" to the GSL in my mind, but I'm sure people will like them too.
|
|
|
Holy crap MOAR Tastosis! I love those guys...
|
I'm kinda lost here... where do i go if I want to get the 1 sek/seat deal (yes, i do have the byoc seat ticket)
|
Holy awesome casters.... :D :D :D

Hope this won't mess up code S casting by Tastosis ;_;
But on the other hand, iit's the only stream I will be watching unless there are some matches I really want to see.
Maybe Day9 and Apollo if match deent or tstosis casting some bad games.
|
Wow that is not cool, Mr. Bitter but no Rotterdam.

Do you find the german language that bad for casting or just the casters. I find Khaldor to be quite good. Or is he not german?
|
bla, tasteless/artosis but no rotterdam/mrbitter??
wtf...
|
Can't go wrong with Tastosis
Day 9 is the icing on the cake.

YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH Mr. Bitter + Day[9] + Apollo <3

Sick lineup of players AND casters.

Can day9 cast with Tasteless please? maybe its just me but i alway seem to miss out seeing this combination

Should be fantastic.
Dreamhack always puts on the greatest stream. :D

awesome casters and a better line up of players cant wait for this!!!

Man, if they hype this up right, this could be the greatest tournament ever. TSL3 hype and games, MLG passion, and Dreamhack stadiums; one these will meld into the perfect tournament. Also;
\hipster mode on/ I remember back when the stadium was for 40 or so people, not these ding-blasted stadiums full of young people *old man noise* \hipster mode off/

|
What the hell totalbiscuit over ROTTERDAM? Rotterdam is a goddamn genius caster.
|
Definitely an insufficient amount of Rotterdam.
|
Sweetness! I now just have to decide to go there or not... I'll see better at home but I'll miss out on the atmosphere... its just like a 40 min drive from my place... in the whats most likely gonna be snow in the middle of the night home... sigh what to do what to do... :/
|
Sick caster line-up. Very, very excited for this! Apollo all the way! :D
|
Good stuff, i love Apollo's casting and now it get's even sweeter with the plot brothers and artosis added to the mix.
Like many i was hoping for Rotterdam aswell, actualy i'd pref him above bitter.
|
absolutely great casters, i dont want to miss any of them ... allthough i often wonder myself why everybody is overlooking Rotterdam. That guy is a beast!
|
MrBitter without Rotterdam is like Artosis without Tasteless
Still one of the best caster-line-ups you could possibly imagine. Since Day9 will be missing at Providence, I'll be especially looking forward to his casting again.

It seems by the comments by mister bitter earlier in the thread like he wasn't suppose to be there in the first place but got invited as a replacement for wheat. Though you could make the argument that both should have been invited in the first place. In any case I think it looks like an amazing casting lineup for most peoples tastes.
|
Damn them... Now I HAVE to go there! Was trying to have something else planned that weekend but now...
Now I have to get there in person!
|
day[bitter]? bitter[9]?
hmmm but none of these combos sound good

Day9 + Tasteless + Artosis!! YEEEAAHH! :D

*Tasteless without Artosis. I'm quite sad about there being no RotterdaM TT
But that doesn't change the fact that the line up is amazing and I'm really looking forward to the setup, with the 'Studio Experts' etc.

Just wanna point out that myself and Apollo are an established casting pair. We are doing 3 major tournaments together this month alone and have been casting as a duo since 2010. That and we cast Dreamhack Valencia so why would they bring one without the other?
As mentioned by Mr Bitter, he is there as a replacement for DJWheat because Day9 needs someone to cast with.
|
|
|
Amazing pairs.
I love absolutely EVERY pair.
TB/Apollo the British dream team.
Tasteless/Artosis the casting archon.
And Mr.Bitter/Day9 aren't an established pair, but both individually are amazing with lots of experience, so i think they'll work really good together.
|
|
|
great announcement in my opinion - these casters will kick ass :D
|
This is absolutely incredible!
I wasn't planning on driving up there, but now that Tastosis is coming I DEFINITIELY am! :D
|
|
|
The lack of Rotterdam is disturbing
What do tournament organizers have against him when he is one of the very best casters out there? No MLG, no BiB, no DH for him TT
|
Hmm, I wonder which casting pairs they'll have.
They had Day9 + dApollo before but I prefer dApollo + TB
MrBitter + Day9?
|
Awesome players, nice casters, great production. This event is gonna kick some ass! :D
|
No RotterdaM makes me a sad panda (
|
So that, that mostly german speakers know RotterdaM, hes such a great guy
|
|
|
So great, I really love all of those casters.
|
ughhh.....where is rotterdam yo
|
Such excellent casters. Nice to see Apollo and TB representing the Brits.
By the way, I think the OP spells MrBitter's name wrong. I think it should be Ben Nichol.

Hahaha I love all of you guys , its ok, I let bitter sleep around 1 more time but after that I will follow him whereever he will go

Looks amazing so far!
Im not sure what to think of MrBitter without Rotterdam though.. I wonder if tournaments are deliberately trying to have them not cast together? :-[

they shouldve added DJ Wheat to cast as a partner for Day9.

Mr bitter was Dj wheat's replacement as by his own words earlier in the thread. If wheat could have come it would probably have been tastosis, day9+ wheat and TB + apollo.

I personally don't like TB's casting, but the other casters are all great! This is gonna be a sweet dreamhack
|
TB is the greatest caster ever!
I wish I lived in Europe, this type of events are so awesome. Really good caster lineup.
|
Looks fantastic! That stadium looks sick!
|
Reaaaaally weird to me that it's such a big thing to announce the casters.... Since when did casters become the thing to hype a tournament? That really didn't happen before recent SC2-history. Yes, I do love Tastosis yadda yadda yadda, but why is there so much hype around certain casters?
Oh yes; why Totalbiscuit? Has he really that large of a following? Is he even Gold on the ladder?...
|
This looks so badass, best caster lineup and arena-like setting! Definitely will set the standard for future tournaments.

It's not like this is "the thing" to hype the tournament, it's one step of many. They announce players in a bunch of 10 or 15 and make a new thread about it to hype the tournament and they do the same for casters. It does a good job to raise awareness for the upcoming event.
Yes, tournaments are a bit to caster-focused, but this announcement right here is nothing uncommon and not noteworthy to point out as an example of putting the wrong things in focus, in my opinion. It fits in well with the rest of the marketing and shows me what to expect when I tune in. Professionality, first and foremost.
|
Holy... christ on a cracker! This will be so amazing i dont have words for it!
Take ALL the best casters was the motto i guess :D
|
Aww, no Rotterdam! Still, MrBitter. Perhaps I should go anyway. He is hilarious!

Totalbiscuit is exactly gold on both EU and US actually.
No problem with hype around casters, cus they do alot for the "scene". But we could sure use a few more good casters. Not that I'm geting tired of Tastosis or Day[J], but would be nice with some new voices. Also perhaps that would leed to more focus on great players deciding what tournament's are great and not the casters. But then again, good casters and good players go hand in hand moste of the time when picking tournaments.
On a Swedish note, since it's dreamhack, we need some Swedish casters to step it up. Not really anyone out there who is outstanding.
[JOKE] But I guess all Swedish casters are buissy trying to find a way to get a spot in GSL.

Actually, yes it does matter. In my opinion, a caster has to understand the depths of a game. I think e.g. RotterdaM (as high in masters as you can get) can analyze way more and better than a gold player

Who's casting with Day9? God I hope its TB :D

My role is not analysis, that should be clear.

It is, and that is why I dont like you as a caster, if I am allowed to say so. Of course, a caster has to be entertaining, but my personal preference is 2 people knowing both analysis and entertainment and preferably having casted a lot of games together (e.g. Bitterdam)

This is an interesting point.
TB, I'd like to ask you a question if you want: assuming that casting games is your main/only job (I think, at least) do you think that you are fine the way you are?
Not judging or anything: I could never cast anything decently and I enjoy basically everyone to an extent.
...and I don't threaten to mute any stream
Just asking if you are actually doing something to improve your gaming knowledge so that you'll be able to tell who has the upper hand in an engagement (upgrades, army positioning and army composition) or you'll leave everything to Apollo.
That's because I don't like that much when a caster says something only to be proven otherwise by the game in a couple of seconds, it feels like they don't know what they are talking about... and we all agree that for a commentator it should be a big no-no.
Ofc I'm not talking about advanced concept, metagame shifts or opinions about what is going to happen: after all your strongest point is elsewhere.
But what about basic concepts such as upgrades or army composition?
Thanks.
On a side note I love you Rotterdam: you are one of the best casters in the whole scene, especially since you bring us constant high-quality casting without being a supposed 'pinnacle of SC knowledge'.
+ Show Spoiler +and you are one of the few always willing to prove your skill, being it in game or not >:D

I dont like TB, but that's cos i rly cant undertand him - DApollo is ok for me, i rly like him when he casted with day9 they make a rly nice duo.

All fantastic casters except for TB, still not entirely sure why he's as popular as he is in the SC2 casting world.
I'll be tuning in nonetheless

Awesome ! Look forward to some awesome casting. I do think that Rotterdam should be there though, he's a boss. He and Mr Bitter made a pretty epic casting duo. Looks like an awesome Arena for the final show as well.

sucks, wanted to meet rotti again <3
|
Why all the flak on TB? He's definitely one of my favourite casters. He and Apollo makes an excellent pair, with Apollo supplying the deeper analysis. Not being a grandmasters doesn't equal poor casting.
Looking forward to TB/Apollo channel on DH!

No. it's not, he's a color caster, for pepole who aren't knowledgable about the game, and especially pepole who just want to get entertained while watching.
I honestly think that having no analysis casters is better than having all analysis casters, because the number of pepole who don't know anything about SC2 but will get hooked by a good caster is way bigger than the number of pepole who just want to learn more about the game.

Ah mrBitter back in biz, great to see, love his casting!
|
What a suprise, a totalbiscuit casting argument on teamliquid.
/facepalm
Its all been said so many timessss.
|
<3 TB, fuck the haters!
Can't wait for this!
|
Hmm, no Rotterdam?
I like how he works with Mr Bitter, but a fantastic caster lineup anyways
|
I am a fairly seasoned player and I quite like TB's analysis. I noticed he was reading the thread so thought I might throw in my 2 cents on people's reactions here.
TB has some very clear pro's and cons.
Pro's: great voice, great accent, fun humour, quick and manages high pace, clearly audible and generally engaging to listen to.
Cons: there is very little analysis. Since he doesnt promise any analysis, thats fine. But I think it is not far from his reach. He should learn it to become brilliant.
Right now he mostly comments on which units he expects to die during skirmishes, as well as other obvious stuff "THAT was not good for Huk" or "It's costing him a lot of money to make these Broodlords" or "I think that this planetary fortress might go down" (when it will definitely go down) etc. Thats better than nothing, and to be honest about 20% of all casting is just "stating the obvious", keeping the viewer up-to-speed and maintaining a tense and exciting atmosphere. It is when stating-the-obvious reaches and exceeds the critical 70-80% mark that mid- and higher-tier players start getting a bit bored. The other casters can give predictions, in depth knowledge about builds (their viability in the matchup, who invented them, who is known for them, what their chance of success is etc) as well as maps (what the win ratios are for each matchup etc), I hear Day9 saying things like "on 3 gas, a protoss just CANNOT do this build" which is in my opinion the kind of truly interesting opinions that a caster should insert into a game every now and again. Having said that, with the few things that TB _does know_, he puts on a hell of a show and I can't remember ever being disappointed on hearing that he would cast a game (Rotterdam is smart, but not so fun. Artosis is very smart, but weak voice, etc).
So I just wish he would learn more of the builds, the strats, the maps, the legacy and history of builds and also more metagame so that he could give these insights, because then he would become SO good and wouldn't draw all this criticism. You don't need to be master league to be able to make these kinds of statements, SC2 is a finite game with a finite number of learnable builds.
Sooo looking forward to Dreamhack! One of the sickest line-ups of players ever! Go Nerchio!
Peace

They don't release numbers publicly, similar to pretty much every company ever...but with this many big names being flown across the planet when there's so much other stuff for them to do, I'd think they'd be getting paid at the very least a few thousand.

In that case I can't do anything but wish you good luck for the games!
A little feedback if you care: differently from other people, I don't have any problem with commentators/you stating the obvious: after all, your job is telling people what's happening.
I just hate when a caster says something completely wrong or miss something that should be clear.
Cast cast gogogo

Event will be sick indeed. First MLG and the week after MLG we have Dreamhack. This will be a couple of nights not sleeping for me..!

Hi TB,
Could you possibly try and play the game a little more?
I think it would be nice if you could be more than bronze league.
It would bring credibility and sense to what you are saying!

Gonna be interesting with Tejbz doing some commentary. Hes a good personality and has a fairly large fan base so hopefully he will get some of his youtube followers interested in sc2.
Eitherway he will increase the unique stream viewers by quite a lot.

Hi everyone I'm not sure I can do some "publicity" in this forum but ... Please don't ban me if what i'm going to say is not allowed. I also want to clarify that I don't signed up to advertise but to post a strategy question, but can't for the moment because i'm not 3 days old. So, I wanted to share with you this website : http://sc2bet.fr . Created by "SuperJambon" (Great Ham in english), it's a fun betting website, based on non-real money. It works in real time, but for the moment only for a quite little competition : the GameCreds Cup. For the dreamhack, there will be a huge effort made on the presentation and the real time interactivity to add more excitation in the matchs. I'm working on that project and I can promise you that's it's going to be great. sc2bet have also a big advantage : it can load the official stream AND the IRC channel on the same screen, what is very comfortable. I must forgive tons of others fonctionality and I personally recommend you to try it for the dreamhack, so sign up now ! If it work, the concept will be extended for others competitions. The best better will received a pre-order for the upcoming Heart of the Swarm !
Ps : I'm really sorry for my bad english but you noticed that I'm french, what explain a lot of things :p
Hoping to see you the 24th

From my experience he judges the game fairly well, given what he says.
Especially concerning that it's not his job, his analysis on what's happening currently on the screen is mostly correct, and if he's not, because he misses the strategic details why something is done by the player, it should be the job of the analyst to step in an explain after the scene is over and everything has calmed down a bit.

can't believe all the hate on TB :O
He has gotten so many people into starcraft, me included! keep up the good work

I don't get the hate on TB as well, I think he's a terrific caster!! Does a really great job at entertaining the viewers and I really enjoyed all the games he casted during past events...
also, is there a bronze league anyway?

As much fun as it would be to see the brothers cast together, they can't break up Tastosis! I also really like the inclusion of MrB, and really appreciated his 12 Weeks with the Pros as they got me from Silver to Platinum league. It's awesome to see him casting such a high profile event. It would have made sense if the dates for Dreamhack were more easy to find. I reread the OP twice and didn't see them.

So what is it about, if not to get people excited and interested in the game?
Sorry TB I thought you were in bronze league because I heard that on a stream the other day.
What league are you in?
I'd be very interested to know which stream that was on.
Anyway I am only saying this because I care and I like your personality.
You could get much better if you actually played the game.
I do a regular Starcraft 2 show 3 times a week in which I stream my own play, I really don't understand what more I could possibly be doing given I also have a job to do covering other games. It is tiring, I have to say, to be constantly told these things. What more, could I possibly do for eSports? How can I be better, how can I give more than I already am? Do you want my soul? You can have it, I have no use for it.

Don't listen to the haters TB, you're awesome. Keep up the great work.
|
TB, you are an awesome caster and an awesome dude.
I have been following you since the beta of Cataclysm. Keep your head up and dont listen to haters. Some people need to hate on something, solely for the pleasure of hating.
You and dApollo make such a nice combo. It amazes me how in such a short time you two became so synched while casting.
Love you, man!
|
TB is a very good caster, especially with apollo. I think they make a very good combo the loud and exciting TB with the calm and more thinking apollo.
I'm very happy to have them both, i feel a bit sad for our european casters since we only have 2/6 casters.
But it's fine by me, it's gonna be a very good event!

Tickets are booked. This will be an amazing event! Can't wait... Only 5h with car from Oslo, Norway!
|
This DH will be perfect !
Really nice casters !
|
holy carp - TB, Day9 AND Bitter casting AT THE SAME EVENT?
Cant wait for a three day Starcraft tolerance break next weak, shit is gonna be awesome.
|
TB's play by play, witty remarks and all round hilarity are awesome. If you don't like it, you have no soul. Go frolic with some horses.
DreamHack is going be an awesome event as always, can't wait =]
|
Apollo and Day 9 are an EPIC team!
|
I like TB, especially when he's paired with Apollo. Apollo has the game knowledge and TB brings the epic play by play.
|
Yeah, TB alone is a bit too much for me, but paired with Apollo, the combination is simply fantastic. Banter, good, energetic play-by-play with a professional radio feel, tons of research and analysis. They have everything. Even the top hat. <3
Now they just need to be able to do MKP's 3-reactor Hellion insanity as observers, and we're talking.

The word "hater" is completely overused. Are we not allowed to have a critical opinion of someone you love? I'm sure TB is a very nice person and I genuinely appreciate what he has done for esports (seriously). I just dislike his carnival barker casting schtick. It rubs me the wrong way and thus he's near the bottom of my list of preferred casters.
I still have respect for the man and, again, appreciate his presence (when he's not casting).
In any event, love the rest of the casters on board for the most part. Cannot wait!

TB, you are an awesome caster and an awesome dude.
I have been following you since the beta of Cataclysm. Keep your head up and dont listen to haters. Some people need to hate on something, solely for the pleasure of hating.
You and dApollo make such a nice combo. It amazes me how in such a short time you two became so synched while casting.
Love you, man!

You're of course entitled to your opinion but you can't possibly fail to notice how odd it is to call the style of casting used as "carnival barking" when applied to a computer game, yet it's entirely normal in a multi-billion dollar industry like broadcast sports. It's a very curious attitude to hold, I find it interesting if a little confusing.

I do appreciate TB Attitude and cast, when alone. And also like Apollo cast alone. They two together no. really sorry. TB doesn't know how to continue the logic from what Apollo just comment. TB also repeat Apollo's saying with a small comment like: yes indeed, of course it is, couldn't be other way, etc. In other hand, when TB comments one aspect, Apollo complements it talking about something else. pay attention for that. So I'm sad to see them together, I would appreciate much much more to see only TB.

That's probably the mostest excellentest bestest everythingest line-up one could hope for. It would be perfect, perhaps, if we also had DJ Wheat casting, but that's just me being silly :D
Great work, DreamHack, as always! Looking forward to it! ♥

I was thinking the same, but I though I was just too daft to find the complete list. In liquipedia I can only find 51 qualified/invited players. I hope there some more Koreans coming.
