Interesting choice. Since he is neither a professional caster with a lot of experience nor a player, jumping straight into WCS is a big move.

What are your thoughts?

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Lycan is a good guy and produces good content, but I remain skeptical when it comes to his casting since I have not experienced it.

Interesting to see. The lack of casting experience, though, shouldn't matter that much when he is joined by nathanias.

Its great to see Lycan given these big opportunities but i think i speak for everyone here when i say that with his lack of casting experience i feel very skeptical if it will work or not. Hope it does, best of luck Lycan .

I don't have anything against Lycan, but he doesn't strike me as a charismatic guy that makes me enjoy listening to him. Game knowledgewise it's extremely limited as well, so to be honest I question if this was the right decision.

I think Lycan is a hard worker and will prepare well for this. I will also wait until it happened to give real feedback, but I think he deserves the chance. If he just doesn't try to come over as a super analyst and does more play by play while asking the right questions to let Nathanias do some analysis, I think he could do very well.

Anyway good luck Lycan, it will be interesting to see .

The Late Game has come a long way. In many ways, I dare say it has surpassed Remax and become my favorite e-sports show. I love the idea of giving active members in the community a chance to shine.

He'll manage fine. It's a good solution since Rotti's (presumably) still en route when Challenger's happening. Nate doesn't have to solo cast and a community workhorse gets some well-deserved exposure.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

I'm not really seeing what he can bring to a casting table, I hope I will be proved wrong, but lacking in knowledge and in-game ability isn't a great start.

This thread is mostly very positive, the "worst" comments are still neutral and very civil. I don't see how you arrived at your conclusion.

Edit: Okay I jinxed it, thanks huktillidie .

I'll jump in on the cautiously neutral train. Seems weird he will cast WCS Challenger, but has the BaseTradeTV crew cast his own league. I'm a little confused.
the absence of evidence, is not the evidence of absence.
