Hello all!

From the early days of the industry and on, Rachel has been a fixture of the Esports world. Seltzer is a true ambassador to gaming, and just a lovely person to talk to. We covered a bunch of stuff, from her time in TF2, meeting her partner TorcH, sharing the stage with the bad boy of SC Stephano after his biggest win, and so much more. This was a fun one guys, I hope I can shoot a longer piece with Rachel some day!

Hope you all enjoy it =D

Kinda disappointed on Seltzer's answer to the Saudi question. There really wasn't anything of substance and it seems like most of the scene is just tiptoeing around the human rights issues around the sportswashing they do.

I understand why the players and casters are going there and participating and i dont blame them for it, but i'd prefer they would be honest that its about money instead of talking things about "oh it could be really cool if the Arabian scene grows" and "maybe things can be better in the future if we just participate in this event there".

I mean.... Shall we ask every American to comment on the Iraqi invasion? It seems a bit much
