I would really love to have Incontrol as an in game commentator as well though, and not have so many people overall (I would like 6 max with a rotation between commentator and analyst) but at least all the names involved are people I enjoy. Specifically though, I love Frodan and enjoy Maynard but honestly they seem redundant considering we already have a powerhouse team without them.
for a second I was worried it might be a complete sausage fest and with no one to translate. would have been silly considering it's an all korean tournament.
yay for snute though. finally a zerg expert outside of moonglade and korea.
Nice lineup! It's funny cause Snute was with Rotti and the boys in #RottiShowmatches on monday (and he was fucking hilarious) and they were talking about if Snute would do analysis, maybe for something like Katowice and Snute's like eh I don't know.
I hope everyone has been brushing up on their vT casting, because Maynarde as the only Terran expert at a 7/16 Terran event sounds kind of sketchy to me.
meh.... good to see apollo and Kaelaris Englands POWER!!!!
Not so happy about;
Tod - So hard to listen to and heroes turncoat INcontrol - Simply just annoys the hell out of me, plenty of better analysts then this waste man Frodan - Hearthstone turncoat enough said
Would have liked to see DeMuslim in there, his and Nathanias Fragbite cast last night was very enjoyable and he is just a lovely guy with tons of knowledge. Stephano was fun to watch in WCS also maybe a different caster like gretorp, I loved that guy in NASL days and hes back on the scene.
This should be a fantastic tournament none the less!!

I thought he was a Zerg specialist? Either way Funka will know what to show :D

Maynarde plays Terran. Apollo plays all races though, he's generally OK with analysing Terran games. And if all else fails, as you say we still have Funka.

For some reason I was thinking of Moonglade! ("they" all sound alike)

ToD knows more about Terran than any other full-time caster.

Joke or serious? More than Nathanias?
It's british humour,
I love British humor! Just... not... over the internet...
They never have anyone who plays terran anyway. Which honestly used to surprise me, and is sort of annoying, but it's been that way for like 4 years now, besides when nathanias is casting.
Wonder how much EG had to pay to get Incontrol on the analysis desk... I remember he threw a temper tantrum last time he wasn't invited to be a caster even though he has all but quit SC2...

No I'm serious... No offence to Nathanias (I like him too!) but ToD is on a way higher level of game understanding than him in general.

This lineup just feels so IEM to me. I personally don't mind Frodan being included and in particular I'm happy Incontrol, Maynarde, and Lilsusie will be there since we don't see them super often.
