It's time to prepare for our last WCS Circuit stop of the year with WCS Montreal, and with that comes the best part - the talent announcement. This time we have Mal on the stage hosting and ZombieGrub joining to cast, so it should be a pretty good time.



Stage host: James 'Mal' Song
Desk host: James 'Kaelaris' Carrol
Commentator: Leigh 'Maynarde' Mandalov
Commentator: Kevin 'Rotterdam' van der Koi
Commentator: Yoan 'ToD' Merlo
Commentator: Geoff 'iNcontroL' Robinson
Commentator: Nathan 'Nathanias' Fabrikant
Commentator: Jessica 'ZombieGrub' Chernega

WCS Montreal is September 8-10th at DreamHack Montreal and will have a $100,000 prize pool and 11,000 WCS Points up for grabs. Canada is great and so is this event. I hope.

Ways to Find Us

Here are some more ways you can find us or get information on attending as a fan, or competitor. We have a twitter at @DreamHackSC2 and a Facebook also named DreamHackSC2. There's also a main DreamHackFestival page and an DH Montreal specific event page there as well. And of course we have wcs.dreamhack.com which has easier links to various rules and all that good stuff.

Congrats to ZG for the gig! Well deserved. Got to meet her last year in Montreal and itll be cool to see her working!

Very excited to go again in person!
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

The return of Mal is quite the development, haven't heard his name in a hot minute.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Glad to see ZG getting a place! Now, if I only can think of a way of staying awake or getting up early to actually get a piece of the action live...

Grats ZG.

Me and Mizenhauer will attempt to get to the next event guys.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Great to see ZombieGrub get to cast a big event! Also excited to see how the blizzcon spots turn out.
There will be no justice in this world until SoO wins a gsl.

Mal is amazing, but it's a shame that the Korean progamers he's so close with won't be there.

I'm just glad we have Mal tbh
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
