The man, the myth, the voice. TotalBiscuit has had a long history with StarCraft II and has made his mark in its history by being a major contributor to the community. He’s hosted, casted, and funded his own tournaments, owned his own StarCraft II team, and now will be immortalized in the game itself.
Coming in Patch 3.10, the Cynical Brit will bestow his bellowing tenor into the ears, and hearts, of StarCraft II players. If you’ve ever wanted John to be your personal coach and caster, the TotalBiscuit announcer is what you’ve been waiting for.
Audio samples can be heard at the official page here
We’re so excited to launch our first ever Announcer staring a prominent community influencer, that we’re also launching a contest and giving away five free announcer packs.
Since this is all about John’s baritone vocals, we thought the contest should be as well. We want you to give us your best TotalBiscuit impression, upload it to the social media platform of your choice (Youtube, Twitter, etc) and email us the link. We’ll check them out and select our favorite 5 winners who will receive their own TB Announcer in StarCraft II.
Here’s some things to keep in mind to maximize your chances of winning:
- Besides his accent, there is much to emulate when doing an impression: gestures, mannerisms, props, do whatever you can to put yourself in the shoes of John.
- Make sure your privacy settings allow us to view your video. We can’t judge what we can’t see!
- Make your video isn’t too long. A minute should be enough to show us your stuff.
- One submission per person.
Submissions will be accepted starting today! You have one week to practice and deliver your own rendition of this gaming icon. We’ll stop accepting submissions on Thursday, January 26. Check out the official rules here.

This is great and the little teases we got are pretty awesome.
It's also nice that TB is the first personality which got a voice pack, he really deserves it.
I wonder what they still have in store for us

I'm really interested in seeing how, and if, they're gonna do TB in other languages. Either:
1) No other languages, and TB is English only.
2) TB had to read lines in many languages, wich may be hilarious.
3) They just put a random guy that can do a brithis accent for each of the other languages.
I really hope number 3 is not the case. As much I like having SC2 in my languages, having a fake TB read in Spanish would not be cool.

I think number one is the most likely tbh. There simply is only one version of TB while there are quite a few for ingame characters.
Number two would be pretty funny though :D

For non-English versions I just want TB to say "I don't speak *insert language*." in that language. So like "Lo siento, no hablo español. Did I say that right?". And he can mispronounce it as much as he wants to.

WOW That is awesome! Can't think of anyone who deserves it more! :D

For every single voice line?

They could have language-specific announcers, like Korean casters for Koreans or O'gaming guys for the French.

Cant wait for Day9 saying "probes and pylons" or "scvs and supply depots" when you get supply blocked. that and "what did we learn?"

What a great idea to do this !
"You're at max supply, send your army to its death" :D
