Other than that it's the usual suspects, StarCraft is truly blessed with tons of great casters. Just seems like there are almost too many for this event. I wonder how everybody gets to cast enough and who will cast the semis and final. | ||

I have no idea who shes dating I was just making fun of how it looks in the photoshopped 'group picture' in the OP. These things always look weird to me, look at little ToD in the background while he's the tallest of them all lol | ||

I watched less SSL than I should have, so I can't really say if Valdes still brings it, but even if he doesn't, he brings more to the table than some of the casters here. | ||

So again, is Smix and Nathanis the star talent for Blizzcon? I'm not asking because I don't think they deserve it, just curious if that was the intention. Or was the designer just lazy and picked these 2 out of a hat? Or maybe they are really good friends of these 2 and decided to do it. And is TB considered a villain? j/k  I love the cynical British dude, even though he can be brash. Although ToD has a villainous look like he is thinking about how to rule the world and make French the international language of the world. | ||

Well desk host is an important job, so I can see Nathanias being given that mantle. That's good for him. I liked Artosis when he was a desk host because he asked good questions before and after matches. I found Apollo a bit bland. I think Kaelaris did it a few times, but I don't remember when. | ||

Kaelaris was the desk host for, I think, all of the WCS majors this year. It's nice for Nathanias to get this opportunity, if this is indeed the case. | ||
