ESL just announced their caster line-up for WCS Europe Ro16 + Finals.

Incontrol and Grubby will join the ESL crew in Cologne, Germany.

The WCS Commentary Lineup:

Shaun 'Apollo' Clark - Ro16 Commentator
James 'Kaelaris' Carrol - Ro16 Commentator
Manuel 'Grubby' Schenkhuizen - Ro16 Commentator
Paul 'ReDeYe' Chaloner - Ro16 Host

Shaun 'Apollo' Clark - Ro8 Commentator
James 'Kaelaris' Carrol - Ro8 Commentator
Manuel 'Grubby' Schenkhuizen - Ro8 Commentator
Geoff 'iNcontroL' Robinson - Ro8 Host


Read more at: http://www.esl.eu/eu/sc2/wcs/news/229272/


Since many are asking why Redeye does not host the finals:
Paul 'ReDeYe' Chaloner will return to host the Ro16 shows. Due to family arrangements however Paul could not be with us for the finals weekend. As a result, we are really excited to announce that Geoff 'iNcontroL' Robinson from Evil Geniuses will be joining us as the host for the Ro8 onwards.

Just before it gets out of hand or you guys equip with pitchforks, I am not able to do RO8 finals weekend as I have my sisters wedding to attend and I think she would kill me if I didn't go. So, we arranged to have Geoff fly over and replace me for the final two days.

Nothing crazier than that!

p.s. ToD couldn't make it due to vacation.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Very cool news! Really like Grubby as a commentator and Geoff is a fantastic host, great choice! Obviously ReDeYe as well, but there can only be one host I guess :D (for each RoX)

Why do you need Incontrol as an extra Ro8 host, instead of Redeye?

Edit:
Due to family arrangements however Paul could not be with us for the finals weekend.

Aaah, maybe I should first read the link.
Still wanted to post, because I love Redeye.

Will be interesting to see Grubby cast, though I'm a bit sad that he didn't make it as a player.

any specific reason why incontrol is host for ro8 instead of redeye?
i mean i really like incontrol, but wouldnt it be kinda stupid to hire another person to host if redeye is doing perfectly fine?

It could be useful to add this precision to your OP

Redeye is without doubt the best host in Starcraft and has done fantastically in Season 1 and 2! Why only let him host Ro16?
ESL has too much money?

Anyone sees the reason why they need seperate hosts in Ro16 and Ro8, where both events are in the same week?


Redeye is the one who decides who hosts and commentates.
