O'Gaming and ESL are pleased to announce the French broadcast of the World Championship Series 2015 !
 
Every match is going to be casted LIVE on France's biggest StarCraft® II channel.
 
The French-speaking cast will start January 22nd, on the first day of WCS Challenger. 
Both Challenger and Premier League will be casted in HD every single day by the O'Gaming StarCraft II crew: Pomf, Thud, FunKa, MoMaN, Anoss and Imre.
 
A few words about O'Gaming
 
Founded 4 years ago by two brothers mesmerized by the energy of Korean shoutcasting, O'Gaming gave birth to international tournaments like Iron Squid I & II, Nation Wars I & II, Tales Of The Lane…
We provide qualitative, epic and fun content about StarCraft II and other competitive games, for a devoted and passionate community. 

No need to introduce them, but still...
 

ESL is the world’s largest esports company, leading the industry with many online and offline competitions for an array of games. You will know them for putting together amazing events, such as the Intel Extreme Masters, or ESL One in Frankfurt or New York. They’re also the people behind the esports leagues for titles as StarCraft II and World of Tanks. They broadcast esports competitions for about 50 games in over 150 channels to millions of people around the world!
 
"We are very happy to get the chance to broadcast the World Championship Series matches for the francophone audience. A few French players are on the line for the RO32 and we're expecting great matches, Que le meilleur gagne !"
— Alexandre "Pomf" Noci, caster & Chairman of O'Gaming TV

WCS EU Challenger preview:

+ Show Spoiler +
Day 1:
 
Majestic vs Happy: It's David against Goliath. Majestic, the Protoss playing for Mousesports is the only Spanish player to make it into WCS Challenger. Happy is not a rookie, it's his 9th participation to WCS. Happy is known for his strong late game in TvP whereas Majestic is known to have some strong timings on two bases. Happy knows how to hold two bases all-in.
 
Happy 3 – 1 Majestic
 
 
Welmu vs Beastyqt: Welmu is a strong and consistent Protoss in Europe, he played every season of WCS and his TvP is his strongest match up. He plays a solid style and his all-ins are really powerful. Beastyqt is a former retired SC2 player who managed to make a comeback after playing League of Legends and Starbow at a high level. He managed to qualify after playing an incredible match against Dayshi. His mechanics and TvP are great but Welmu has a killer instinct.
 
Welmu 3 – 1 Beastyqt
 
 
Harstem vs Serral : The Dutch Protoss has to face one of the youngest WCS players. The Finnish Zerg is a rookie, it's his second participation in WCS and he has to play against one of the most experienced Protoss in Europe. Harstem is currently living in the ROOT house and he can prepare his match with Hydra, one of the favourites to win WCS.
 
Harstem 3 – 2 Serral
 
 
MaNa vs HeRoMaRinE : The Polish Protoss player for TeamLiquid who has played almost all WCS seasons. He has played StarCraft II since the beta and he's one of the most consistent Protoss in Europe. HeRoMaRinE is one of the European hopes, he holds a high rank on the european ladder, has a strong record in the national league against Protoss and managed to qualify for this season of WCS without trouble. MaNa is a really experienced player and Bunny has the best TvP in Europe.
 
MaNa 2 – 3 HeRoMaRinE
 

Day 2:
 
uThermal vs Bly : The Dutch Terran player for AT Gaming has a solid record against Zerg, he has taken maps off Solar, TerrOr and DRG. Bly, the Ukrainian Protoss playing for Acer is known for his cheese and the famous #blyonfire. He's really strong in online tournament play and has a strong teammate, MMA who's going to practice with him for this match.
 
Uthermal 3 – 2 Bly
 
 
ShoWTimE  vs Lilbow : The German player is one of the most consistent players in his country, he is always performing in EPS Germany and he's always maintains a high position on the ladder. The Protoss player for Millenium is considered by experts of the scene as one of the scariest Protoss in the foreign scene. He has defeated plenty of Korean players in online tournaments like Solar, YoDa or First.
 
ShoWTimE  2 – 3 Lilbow
 
 
BlinG vs MorroW : Both of these players are considered experienced. BlinG has been up and down during his career but he has managed to qualify for WCS many times. MorroW, the Swedish player won the first ever Major Starcraft 2 event back in 2010 with his famous matches against IdrA. They know each other a lot and they both know that mindgames are going to be really important for this match.
 
BlinG 3 – 1 MorroW
 

TLO vs Ret: Both are Zerg, and teammates. They practice together, they have been living together, and are talking on a daily basis. For a week they are going to practice against each other, they won't speak to each other for a week, they are friend but they both really want this spot for Premier League. TLO is known for being creative and Ret for making drones.
 
TLO 3 – 2 Ret
 
 
Day 3:
 
 
TargA vs Kas : The Terran playing for Cascade is one of the most if not the most dedicated foreign player. He played over 20 000 games in 5 years and he's still one of the strongest Terrans in Europe. He recently qualified for IEM Taipei. TargA, the Norwegian player for Imaginary Gaming is known to have a lot of build orders, he knows when to play macro and know when he can all-in. They both have a lot of experience but the Zerg player has a small advantage for this Bo5.
 
TargA 3 – 1 Kas
 
 
Snute vs PsiOniC : Again it’s David against Goliath, Snute is one of the strongest foreign players while PsiOniC is an up and coming player on the European scene despite having strong results during French LAN. Snute is heavily favoured against PsiOniC, the player from TeamLiquid has a strong ZvP, he defeated herO a few times while PsiOniC is known for his PvT and not for his PvZ,
 
Snute 3 – 0 PsiOniC
 
 
Starbuck vs FireCake : Second mirror match for this preview. The player for Mousesport is known for using an unorthodox style, he beat Genius, a Korean Protoss, with only drones. The second player is Firecake playing for PunchLine. The Frenchmen known for his bad behaviour and his game against MaNa during WCS Challenger.
 
Starbuck 3 – 1 FireCake
 
 
ForGG vs MarineLorD : David against Goliath once again. This match is most likely going to be a quick 3-0 for the Korean Terran. MarineLorD is a strong Terran in Europe, having decent results online despite having never qualified for WCS before this season. MarineLorD is living in the Millenium gaming house for a few weeks and he's only practicing TvT for a week.
 
ForGG 3 – 0 MarineLorD
 
 
Nerchio vs NaNiwa : This match is the best match for Challenger. NaNiwa came back from a 10 month break and he managed to qualify for the Challenger. Nerchio was one of the strongest European Zerg in 2012 and 2013. Both of them like to express their anger on Twitter and TeamLiquid but they are both top players in Europe.
 
 
Nerchio 2 – 3 NaNiwa
 
 
Bunny vs PtitDrogo: Last match of the European Challenger. Bunny is the strongest European Terran in Europe and PtitDrogo is an up and coming player, he's known for his strong PvZ. Unfortunately for the Nuit Blanche player he has issues with PvT and Bunny has great teammates with MaNa and HerO to practice TvP.
 
Bunny 3 – 1 PtitDrogo
 
WCS NA Challenger preview:
 

+ Show Spoiler +
Day 1:
 
Qxc vs Kane : qxc said that he wanted to take a break after this WCS season and come back for LotV. The American Terran all killed IM during GSTL and has had great TvZ lately, taking games off Scarlett, winning against viOLet and barely taking a game against Jaedong during HomeStoryCup. Kane, the Canadian Zerg playing for mYinsanity is a strong player, he was top 16 GM when he lived in Switzerland. He is a strong macro player but he knows how to counter a greedy build from a Terran.
 
Qxc 3 – 2 Kane
 
puCK vs Guitarcheese : puCK is the strongest Protoss in North America, he has a great Colossus micro, knows how to hold cheese and he knows how to execute a proper 7 Gate Robot. Guitarcheese is a mystery, an excellent Zerg player on the NA server but he also plays random at GM level.
 
PuCK 3 – 1 Guitarcheese
 
 
Polt vs Temper : David against Goliath, Polt has been a top player since 2011, Temper is a Terran player unknown in the pro scene. He qualified for Challenger but he has almost no chance against Captain America.
 
Polt 3 – 0 Temper
 
 
Scarlett vs Astrea : Scarlett said that she wants to take a long break after this WCS season but she wants to come back for LotV. She openly plays DotA 2 but she's still the strongest Zerg on the NA server. Astrea, the American Protoss for ROOT Gaming is known for his 2 base all-ins. If he prepares well he can qualify for WCS Premier League
 
Scarlett 3 – 2 Astrea
 

Day 2:
 
HuK vs State: HuK is one of the oldest pro gamers, he played GSL back when BoxeR was still active, won MLG and a DH. He's also known for his “top 3 micro” but he's a really strong player. State, the former PRIME player has been living in Korea for over a year now. He's currently practicing on his own after living on the PRIME then Axiom house. State has a network to find strong practice partners to prepare his match up.
 
HuK 3 – 2 State
 
 
MaSa vs Hydra: MaSa is a strong Terran playing for ROOT Gaming but he has to face the favourite, his teammate, Hydra. The Korean is living in the ROOT house and he has managed to get a visa. The former CJ Entus player has a great TvZ and he was ranked first on the European ladder with an 80 % win rate.
 
MaSa 0 – 3 Hydra
 
 
viOLet vs Xenocider : The Korean Zerg player is one of the few players who can brag to have a build order with his name on it. The viOLet push is still used 3 years after its creation. Xenocider was a foreign hope back in 2012. He did not make a name for himself in oversea tournaments but he's still qualified for WCS Challenger.
 
ViOLet 3 – 1 Xenocider
 
 
Suppy vs Bails : Suppy, the American Zerg stopped being a full time pro gamer and decided to go back to his studies but still managed to qualify for WCS Challenger. Bails is an American player and he plays a solid style. Suppy is way more experienced and he knows how to handle the pressure of this kind of match.
 
Suppy 3 – 1 Bails

Thanks for reading guys, we are very excited to start casting this amazing competition and look forward for your feedback (:

Great, but Funka will still be the official observer, not a caster, right?

(his casting is great but his observing is unmatched...)

Ha congrats to O'gaming for the big win! The French casts are hilarious to listen to when you understand what they're saying. I love their vocabulary. Good luck gentlemen, looking forward to it!

(My only hope is that this doesn't push the english casters out!)

Do french casters call surrender if 1 marine dies?
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.
