I can't imagine anyone taking Chanman's place. Many people criticized him for his hosting, but I think he was a natural. I started off watching Unfiltered for the Starcraft content and by the time he switched the focus to include other games and brought on colorful characters like Richard Louis to co-host I was hooked. I'm completely uninterested in other games besides sc2, but his brilliant presentation made unfiltered a joy to listen to every week. Sadly, all good things come to an end.

What? O.O I didn't see this coming at all. Went to bed before the show was over yesterday, had no clue that the promised announcement would be such a shocker

Really sad to see this happen, I loved his shows a lot, especially Unfiltered. The Chanman-Destiny combo is the absolute best. <3

Thanks for everything, Chanman! Best of luck in the future ^^

What, are you serious? Unfiltered was soo awesome. Easily best/most entertaining show.

Why even mention the reddit "scandal", who even cares about such crap when the show is deserves ten times the viewer numbers

Saddest announcement for sc2 in years.

Grab IM and do a huge deadman's party, Chanman! Didn't watch your shows, and I said "godspeed" already earlier, but you always seemed to be a well mannered, nice person. And wut, you're almost 40?! Go play some videogames and actually have fun now!

Fuck... Sad to hear this. I've watched every episode, and unfiltered really filled the void that sotg left when that ended.

Like sotg, it was something I looked forward to watching every week, but all good things come to an end I guess. I hope this won't be the end of Destiny/Richard in talk shows, would be cool to see them continue doing them, maybe start up a new one together.

Thanks for the good times Chris and glhf in life!

RIP ChanmanV + The Chan reddit alt bloodline

I really enjoyed watching unfiltered every week for the past year or so. Ever since shows like SOTG, ITG, meta slowed down or ended it was one of the few places where you could hear a legit discussion about important issues.

Hopefully Richard/Destiny will continue podcasting so that we can all continue to hear their thoughts going forward.

I´ve watched so much of your shows Chanman and its has been a blast. I myself have tried to host shows only one time a week but it takes so much time. Preparing the content, inviting guests, keeping it all interesting and having to handle all the different stuff that always happens.

You did the right choice and I hope that we´ll see more of you in the future. Also a honor meeting you at Dreamhack Summer this year.

All the best!

Yes I can understand it sucks when people leave the scene and we lose shows but I rather have a smaller community build with people that have actual values.

NOOOOOO. I need Unfiltered. It's the only e-sports news and gossip show I like. This really sucks.

But well, thanks Chanman for the awesome show. Good look in the future.

you seem to know chanman very well, or you're just really the best judge of character on the internet
