We are very happy to announce that Axeltoss is joining ROOT as our official Caster!

Alex will be running our new Youtube channel as well as casting for ROOT Branded tournaments and events. Alex is a great fit to the team as he is a fantastic up and coming caster that deserves a lot more recognition, at ROOT we will try our best to help Axeltoss grow his own brand alongside with ours. Alex has experience casting big Live tournaments such as the GIGABYTE Lan and the very popular Lone Star Clash.

We want to encourage everyone to follow Axeltoss on twitter (@Axeltoss) and like him on his new facebook page (facebook.com/Axeltoss). Alex also has a youtube channel of his own (AxeltossSC)!

Here are some words from my goot friend Alex on joining our family:

Upon first hearing whispers at the possibility of ROOT reforming a month or so ago, I couldn't help but feel excited. They are the one Starcraft 2 team that always had a chemistry unlike any other. They saw themselves as more than just teammates trying to win tournaments and top the ladder... they saw themselves as a group of friends; a family that never forgot the reason they were binded together in the first place. ROOT is a team that sure, cares about results and getting better, but also will never forget or ignore the aspect of fun and entertainment that the game provides, something that most people tend to forget. I'm truly excited to be a part of this mentality and look forward to, as a caster, bringing to the community the values and ideals of friendship, fun, and fierce competitiveness that this team exemplifies above all others. I also see this as a huge opportunity to improve myself as a caster, having the priviledge to interact with some of the greatest minds in the game, enabling me to enhance my ability and knowledge of Starcraft 2. I would like to thank Destiny for suggesting me and Catz for approaching me in regards to becoming ROOT, there is no place I would rather be. - Axeltoss

We at ROOT want to thank Alex for being AWESOME and for his interest in our brand from the beginning.

You can find ROOT's brand new youtube channel at: www.youtube.com/sc2ROOT.

We are steadily trying to grow ROOT to be one of the biggest teams in eSports, this youtube channel is a step forward in that direction to provide the community that has done so much for us with a lot of new fresh content on a regular basis. please keep cheering for us and support our team.

follow us at @ROOT4ROOT on twitter and give us a like on facebook.com/sc2ROOT and of course, please subscribe to our youtube (sc2ROOT).

The first two videos we are posting include a brand new intro video I hope you enjoy (i made it myself) as well as a casted game of Axeltoss and drewbie + an analysis breakdown of a game by Axeltoss and myself (CatZ)

CatZ vs EroSennin - by Axeltoss and CatZ (Analysis)


Coca vs Gumiho - by Drewbie and Axeltoss (Cast)

Thanks again everyone!

I really like Root's lineup. All of the people in it make it seem so much more of like a friendship and a community rather than like a bunch of nameless faces.

Though I'm a little concerned about getting all of these people + the DotA 2 team to events with Twitch as their only sponsor o.o

Twitch sponsors them I think. Shouldn't be too hard for them to get another common sponsor such as Razer.

I'd like to see them get Redbull or Nos as a sponsor.

Ah, Axeltoss. I remember when he casted Destiny in some tournament long ago and he was shocked that he had like 600 people watching his stream. He's a great and dedicated caster, and I'm glad to see him join my favorite team.

imo, axel should learn some DoTa2 just for some more coverage of the team.
We were all raised on televion that made us believe we'd all be Millionairs, Movie gods, and Rockstars..... But we won't.... We are slowly learning that fact. And we are very, very pissed off.

Because CatZ posts everything in the universe without running it by his writing staff first, I have decided that I will simply start correcting him in the thread after he posts.

I hate almost all of the small name casters that have been going around casting events.

I like Axeltoss quite a lot. He's not part of the group I mentioned earlier, he's quite good, especially considering that I am VERY critical of casters, but I really enjoyed what I've seen him cast of the TSL lately. And ROOT is awesome ofc. I'm happy with this :D.

We are very happy to announce that Axeltoss is joining ROOT as our official Caster!

Alex will be running our new Youtube [YouTube] channel as well as casting for ROOT Branded tournaments and events. Alex is a great fit to the team as he is a fantastic up and coming caster that deserves a lot more recognition[. This is a comma splice.] at[At] ROOT we will try our best to help Axeltoss grow his own brand alongside with ours. Alex has experience casting big Live [live] tournaments such as the GIGABYTE Lan [LAN] and the very popular Lone Star Clash.

We want to encourage everyone to follow Axeltoss on twitter (@Axeltoss) and like him on his new facebook page (facebook.com/Axeltoss). Alex also has a youtube channel of his own (AxeltossSC)!

Here are some words from my goot friend Alex on joining our family:

["]Upon first hearing whispers at the possibility of ROOT reforming a month or so ago, I couldn't help but feel excited. They are the one Starcraft 2 team that always had a chemistry unlike any other. They saw themselves as more than just teammates trying to win tournaments and top the ladder... they saw themselves as a group of friends; a family that never forgot the reason they were binded together in the first place. ROOT is a team that sure, cares about results and getting better, but also will never forget or ignore the aspect of fun and entertainment that the game provides, something that most people tend to forget. I'm truly excited to be a part of this mentality and look forward to, as a caster, bringing to the community the values and ideals of friendship, fun, and fierce competitiveness that this team exemplifies above all others. I also see this as a huge opportunity to improve myself as a caster, having the priviledge to interact with some of the greatest minds in the game, enabling me to enhance my ability and knowledge of Starcraft 2. I would like to thank Destiny for suggesting me and Catz for approaching me in regards to becoming ROOT, there is no place I would rather be.["] - Axeltoss

We at ROOT want to thank Alex for being AWESOME and for his interest in our brand from the beginning.

Comma Splice again] this[This] youtube [YouTube] channel is a step forward in that direction to provide the community that has done so much for us with a lot of new fresh content on a regular basis. please keep cheering for us and support our team.

YES! This is the best thing for him and ROOT! He is my favorite of the relatively unknown casters, and has been for a long time.

Nice pick! Love Axeltoss casting
I play 1v1 SC2 because I've heard there are people who are currently better than I - and that pisses me off.
