ToD confirmed in the biggest slump ever in the french language department.
nice line up
apart from that, interview, players introduction for sure will be in english (so the main stuff)
i don't get why having a french cast for the crowd is a big deal for some people ? just take a look at the setup of any korean events ..
Well to be fair Korean events primarily target Korean audience, and when events happen like in Germany or Sweden we have a main cast in English d: But I agree, it's cool to adapt to the country you're in.
No RedEye feels wired. I still not like the combo of Host and Translator. Frensh main language at event? Could feel as wired as Dramhack Moscow.
Not to talk about this 3 Days Ro16 till finals journey.
Sounds hypercritical. But there are flaws and they have to be solved for S2 Finals.
Thus i really like they invited Fenner. I am not that guy who watches First Person Streams, so not alot of Fenner. But when he is at BTTV, I like his calm voice and his on point comments.

This is the list I want to see, it would improve the casting quality about 500%
Edit - Just to clarify, I think Kaelaris is on par with Totalbiscuit casting wise... i.e. really terrible awareness of what's going on. I really dislike this in casters.

Eeek, time to try and remember the French I learnt at school... Will being able to count infinitely in French help? That's pretty much all I can remember haha :D

But Panel Host means more sweet $$$ and less work (:
Having been at both Ironsquid events with le terrible French skills I have to say I didnt mind it at all. Still hoping there will be a 3rd IS event one day.
French hype cast and crowd will deliver dont worry. <3

No, but he's very okay, and far from a disappointment.
And whatever about the event being hosted live in French. It's not like the vast majority of you are going to be there and have to sit through the baguettes and les ouis. I'm watching the main stream, and there's no reason to believe it will be any less excellent than it usually is.

Additionally some forget that France is probably in the top 3 of the most important (in terms of numbers) SC2 communities (along with Germany and the USA I guess?).

Korea?
Nice to see Fenner there. Hope Kaelaris gets to cast the finals, altough I feel it will be Rotti and Nate.
