Pretty sure this means a cage fight between Carmac and Adam.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Carmac wins, 'cause he has more experience in lifting people ^-^

rotterdam and incontrol to cast WCSAM

As much as I like Incontrol, I'd prefer Nathanias and Incontrol as host


Incontrol is far more entertaining and lightyears better at SC2 in my incredibly humble opinion! :D

Haha take that freedom.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Agreed! Nathanias gets so excited he completely over powers the other caster lol. I would be happy with either though.

why not both?
NASL had 4 casters in frodan/gretorp and bitter/rotti. I dont see why incontrol and nathanias lead by rotti wouldnt do a fine job.

great news overall, ESL expanding and hopefully bringing more action into the NA scene, cant wait to see how it turns out.

They aquire an east coast based company and open a studio on the west coast. What? Hope it works out! WCS AM on American soil seems appropriate.

NASL also went bankrupt, I don't know if having many casters is such a good idea.

But awesome news nonetheless ESL taking over the world!
