The Run By
The next topic:TBD
Tuesday, Nov 28 7:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00)
NEXT SHOW: TBD
Livestream

Hey guys! I'm Thalandros, a big Starcraft enthusiast, player, and occasional caster and content creator. Last year I started off doing The Final Hours, which is a talkshow based on the WCS ladder challengers.

Because those only happen 4 times a year, and because the subject matter is very limited, I decided to throw something else together. I present to you: The Run By!

The Run By is a new talk show that I hope to host periodically - not every week or even two weeks, but whenever I feel it could be interesting or necessary. Basically, whenever there's something important to discuss. The purpose of the show is to create an open discussion where every guest can speak their mind at any topic that comes by. I purposely ask guests that are different from each other in terms of their job within StarCraft II. This way we have different perspectives with different thoughts!


So who and what's next?

The first and next episode of The Run By will air on Tuesday, Nov 28 7:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) on my Twitch channel.

The topic will be WCS 2017 and everything around it: Results, potential issues or pointers for 2018, the Warchest and it's effect on WCS, etcetera. We expect the show to be between 1-2 hours long and lots of different subjects will be discussed!



The guests
Our guests for the first show:

[image loading]

None other than ZombieGrub, Cham, and Optimus!

ZombieGrub
Zombiegrub has been a long time caster within StarCraft II. She has recently been casting the most prestigious StarCraft events there are, including the WCS Global Finals at BlizzCon. As the only non-player guest, she has some great insights in things that the other guests might not think about or overlook. Follow her on twitter

Cham
Cham has been often overlooked, but in the past year he's shown how much of a dominant force he really can be. Placing 9th in the WCS 2017 rankings, Cham has really improved a lot over the years and we can't wait what's in store for him for 2018. As a veteran of professional SC2 at this point, Cham will bring some great insights from a high level professional player. Check out the interview I did with Cham at Valencia 2017 here and follow him on twitter.

Optimus
Optimus is one of the best players coming out of the Netherlands in Starcraft history and he's around to show it. 2017 has been a big improvement on previous years for him in terms of performance, however he's still often seen as the underdog. Optimus's grind from the bottom up is really inspiring, but also really interesting. It will be interesting to hear his thoughts on what has been happening in the past year from his perspective. Check out the interview I did with Optimus at Valencia 2017 here and follow him on twitter.


VoDs
VoD's will be posted as soon as the show is over and archived here. They will be posted on YouTube. If there is any request for posting it on another form of media, please do let me know!

Nice! I loved listening to all the talk shows when I was studying back in the day. Due to long train rides, I had lots of time and stuff like SOTG, Meta and Remax became life savers.

Looking forward to it!
first we make expand, then we defense it.

I love it but the true test is episode 4. I don't know what it is about the 4th one of something but everyone seems to stop by the fourth episode of something.

Thanks for the comments guys

As mentioned in the post, there is no set schedule for this show. I'll try to create at least one per month but it really depends on whether I feel it's necessary, based on news that has come out or recent developments. I think WCS 2017 hasn't really been publicly discussed too much in a recap sort of way, so that's why I thought it would be interesting to start there and pick relevant guests who have had to do with the system all year in different ways.

If anyone has any suggestions for topics though, of course I'll want to hear about them so let me know!

Maybe it's just me, but I would love to heard the point of view of a team manager on how they chooses witch players to pick, the implication of the teams into the schedule of the players, how they approach new sponsor and such, does it varies a lot form team to team, what future does they see for SC2 etc... It might just be me how is interested in that tho.

Unfortunately, Cham had to cancel due to some personal circumstances tonight. Currently hard at work to find a replacement for him for tonight's show at 20:00CET/14:00ET/11:00PT!

@Nakajin I agree with you. There aren't very many that are available very often though, but that was definitely my first thought as well. Thanks for the feedback though, I'm going to try keep the guests as varied as possible.
