The popular casting duo Kevin "RotterdaM" van der Kooi and Ben "MrBitter" Nichol depart from ESL TV. They've been casting for the ESL since IEM Season VI Cologne and were casting ESL tournaments like the IEM and Go4SC2. They also hosted various shows like "The Grass Is Always Greener".
But they won't disappear forever, as the ESL announced that they will work with them at future events (presumably IEM). Additionally the ESL announced that their premier SC2 english spot will be filled soon.

that's unexpected. Anyone knows why ?
|
Hmmmm why so? Are they gonna take up any more regular casting gigs?
|
I wonder how they gonna keep doing casting full-time now? I mean awesome people like those 2 also need money to survive 
|
Woah.
Wonder if another company have bought them to cast full time.
|
|
|
Omg my favorite casting duo, would always tune in when casting, love RotterdaM hope he keeps casting or starts playing full time again

Well it was announced they will be part of the Razer Academy. Maybe that takes up too much time.
|
GSL? Just to see bitter calculates the possibilities during up & down matches lol.
|
aww, i hope they find a new home soon, BitterdaM is my favorite caster duo besides tastosis
|
Looks like bitterdam for sure got picked up by nasl.
|
I guess they need more freedom, they're awesome I'm not worried about them!
|
TT i really liked Biterdam
|
I guess this means no "The Grass is Always Greener" season 2?
|
Honestly not that surprising to me. It just makes more sense to hire them (or other casters) for singular envents and not have them on a payroll all the time, since the daily shows they casted didn't have enough viewers to justify the costs (IMO).
|
They were travelling to a lot of tournaments not connected with ESL so maybe they will become more 'mercenary'(dont know better word) like TotalBiscuit and dApollo.
|
T.T
Will be interesting to see where they go.
|
wow, not expecting that. wonder what they have lined up next.
Love their casting, hope to see more of them.
|
Mr Bitter going back to the US then?
