Just saying that every Protoss is whining how they are too weak in LOTV.

I'm really happy to see Snute there, but overall this lineup is not as impressive, mainly because its so much smaller. The lack of a protoss is so surprising considering how many there are. They could definitely benefit from an extra caster like Rotti or Le ToD for the PvPs. I wonder who is going to cast those: Apollo for one, I'm guessing? I'd actually really like to see Snute and Nathanias cast them. I'm curious what casting combo everyone else thinks would be best for the PvPs.

They don't leave Korea for minor events. Artosis has a family he doesn't like to leave and Tasteless can afford to be picky as he's one of the best in the business

? They don't do Dreamhacks or IEMs. They stay in Korea except for end of the year type stuff. It's always been that way.

Nathanias panel host? So no Nathanias cast? That would make me very sad. Still, I'm super happy to see him become such a regular. He might be the best caster in foreign SC2 at this point.

They don't do it a lot, but they do it. Artosis casted IEM Shenzhen this year, for example. And 2014 they casted at least 1 Dreamhack.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Apollo over Nathanias? What's the logic there?

Edit: maybe you skipped Nathanias because he's listed as a panel host at this particular event. That would be... logical...

Didn't qualify: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/DreamHack_ROCCAT_LotV_Championship/Northern_Europe_Qualifiers

1-2 to SortOf, 1-2 to Lillekanin. He started playing LotV beta quite late and he did just win GPL so I wouldn't hold it against him. He also couldn't play in the 2nd qualifier for family reasons I think. There was a single foreign invite which went to Huk, and no disrepect to him but he doesn't seem that great at LotV.

To be honest I never understood why people make such a fuss over who's the "expert", "host", "panel-host" etc. at tournaments. It's always the same usual suspects anyway.

Great line up ... I am happy with it, but I am sad not to have Rotti or ToD for protosses :-(
I am also sad, Snute doesn't play, he could win it all :-)
And I am wondering what does Lilbow show against the Big Boy! :-)

gogo Flo !
That 1st high level LoTV tournament is going to be hard to obs properly, better bring the a game and focus !

I guess we both started obs'ing a tournament cause we had a history of competitive starcraft, wanted to increase the visual value of how the game is told, how exciting it can be. After a few events and a job done well, we got asked to do more.

I guess you can't please everyone witht the style we use, and I can understand that you like SPL Observing more, but I dont really think we're less qualified than them.
And we also understand english which makes it for a good synergy between observer and casters.

There is only one true "expert", nobody else is worthy of the honor of quotation marks.

Overall, I support this lineup, it's really people who know their shit about the game and I do not know anything about LoTV essentially at the moment, so I am looking forward to learning some stuff.
