On a related note, did Tasteless's neck get thicker? Such a beast of a man.

Great team indeed but I'm curious what happened to Apollo? He is someone I expected at IEM.

he refused to attend when he realized Koreans were attending the event

Why don't they give us back the duo of kaelaris and Apollo really liked that

No one makes you answering my question so at least when you do, answer with some valid info. You have like 10K+ posts and I wonder how many of them are trolling posts like this one. Seriously, grow up.

About 10k of his posts are troll posts. He's a terrible user.
Apollo has been moving more into the behind the scenes stuff for some time, no big surprise he's not involved on camera.

Hey there,
Thanks for the info. It makes sense. He moved to LA recently I think so probably some content production that he has been working on over there.
I like him as a host. Funny guy. I hope he will continue to host some IEM/WCS events.

Pretty sure that's the angriest post directed towards me in 5 years on TL. Still hurts less than DRG's retirement...

What is a 'reporter'? Additional content is fairly vague. I think the guy was at a couple of LoL events, I don't really remember him though so meh.
Good observing team!

The reporter will be behind the scenes and do interviews and other content outside of the big stages. He will do it for CS:GO and SC II at the same time.

Uber is an app that has become so popular it took on a human form and is now walking among us.
Its purpose is still unclear but we assume its actions are not of evil intent. However, for safety reasons we advise to follow these guidelines when interacting with said Uber:
1. No sudden movement, it might trigger an action we havent seen on camera before
2. No foul language in the presence of Uber. It has been reported to cause the Uber to malfunction on camera.
Instead we recommend you:
3. Smile a lot, repeat a clear message over and over that every pro has said before you did.
4. Feel free to add in awkward lull or some verbal diarrhea to amuse the Uber. It will then proceed to drive you home safely.
I am really really bored right now

Uber does a fair amount of overwatch casting, he is pretty good give him a chance.

When you want to give someone else the crown for most angry post directed towards you then obviously he's immediately coming back to defend his title

Don't think anyone is ever angry towards you. Maybe just your god awful taste in players.

Yep! Doing events outside NA aren't as fulfilling for me as I'm more focused on streaming this year and want to build something that can survive further downsizing of SC2 events. Since WCS basically doesn't exist since last year (no studio work) nothing is stable enough for me to give up consistency in my normal work to miss 2 weeks for an event.

Hey Nathanias, can you quote me for E-Fame?

but as far as i remember he didnt cast any games at blizzcon? i would really love to see him cast a game again or even if he would just go back to do some sc2 game analyses now and then. he was by far my favourite caster/analyzer and i just miss him =((
but ya overall im happy hes doing well for himself.
guess i have to wait until sc3 to see him cast some games again

His channel just isn't his main job anymore, he's really raping it up in the world of game development.
I think he's in the Forbes 30 under 30 now.

I was wrong, apparently. He's back to full time Day9.

They won't use Funka, the god of observing? Or just not listed?
It literally says this in the OP:
The Broadcast Team
Observer: Alex FunKa Verrier
Observer: Kevin MapuTV Kremser

By now it's a waste to use FunKa as an observer, he is just too funny when casting.

Apollo is a behind-the-scenes guy now. And as for Valdes, well, someone has to stay in Korea to cast tournaments.

I feel like ToD has gotten a lot worse since he stopped playing. Most of his Lotv knowledge isn't up to date and it really shines thru in his casts since he tries to be analytical. Otherwise great team though, excited to have Kaelaris again. It was so sad to lose him to heroes of the storm, his play by play is top notch.

Good lord I just hope this has less problems than the League tournament going on atm. Sooooo many pauses and problems.

I have to disagree, ToD is one of the most hard working caster in the industry and he really knows players/strategies.

Are you saying ToD is indeed playing and thus knows "players/ strategies" or that he is working hard, cuz that's not what Comedy was talking about.
I have no clue what ToD has been doing lately tho.

I think League tournaments always have more problems. I'm sure there'll be something but I doubt it will be as bad.

Then it would be a good time to start putting things on the calendar today. I don't understand these organizations sometimes. Maybe I just spend too much time here, and people get info from other places these days but when you look at upcoming events and see nothing while the biggest tournament apart from Blizzcon is coming it's just sad.

Yes, it's very easy to do. Which is why I'm frustrated nobody at IEM has done it yet.
