We’re happy to announce the team of talent that will bring you the StarCraft II World Championship Series Global Finals at BlizzCon. From the North American Star League, Ben ‘MrBitter’ Nichols and Kevin ‘RotterdaM’ van der Kooi will bring you their unique brand of banter, while resident GomTV shoutcasters Nick ‘Tasteless’ Plott and Dan ‘Artosis’ Stemkoski are back at BlizzCon for the third time. To round out the group, the Electronic Sports League’s Shaun ‘Apollo’ Clark will join Sean ‘Day[9]’ Plott as the third pair of English shoutcasters for the event.

All around this phenomenal group of StarCraft II experts, the Electronic Sports League’s production team will be presenting the action on the eSports stages, and they’re already collaborating with Blizzard to make this the most visually impressive BlizzCon yet.



Shaun 'Apollo' Clark - @ApolloSC2
Dan 'Artosis' Stemkoski - @Artosis
Nicolas 'Tasteless' Plott - @CallMeTasteless
Sean 'Day[9]' Plott - @day9tv
Ben 'MrBitter' Nichol - @MrBitterTV
Kevin 'RotterdaM' van der Kooi - @RotterdaM08

As much as people hate on Tasteless..

Without him it feels weird... Him and Artosis are the best duo in the business.

I like him... i don't care if u guys don't

I wished they would've kept both Plott brothers out, but I guess I'm on my own on this one.

Should be great nonetheless.

Yeah :/ remember him SOLO casting all FOUR days of challenger qualifiers for season 1?

But really glad to see Tasteless go to an event!

Well, Tasteless really seems to have stopped caring about SC2 from his GOM casts, and Artosis is better with other people.

Also there may be reasons other people aren't there other than not being asked to go.
HOLY CHECK!

Wtf no Kaelaris? He's a beast, would love to see him there!

Other than that it's obviously rock solid, good choices.

Great casters, but as many of the posters above, I concur in being sad for Kaelaris. He really does work hard and his casting has improved so much in my mind. A very dedicated and kind member of the SC2 community.
The key to all knowledge is a loving heart.

I'd rather have Kaelaris than Rotterdam or Mr Bitter, to be honest.
