We are very happy to announce that Axeltoss is joining ROOT as our official Caster!

Alex will be running our new Youtube channel as well as casting for ROOT Branded tournaments and events. Alex is a great fit to the team as he is a fantastic up and coming caster that deserves a lot more recognition, at ROOT we will try our best to help Axeltoss grow his own brand alongside with ours. Alex has experience casting big Live tournaments such as the GIGABYTE Lan and the very popular Lone Star Clash.

We want to encourage everyone to follow Axeltoss on twitter (@Axeltoss) and like him on his new facebook page (facebook.com/Axeltoss). Alex also has a youtube channel of his own (AxeltossSC)!

Here are some words from my goot friend Alex on joining our family:

Upon first hearing whispers at the possibility of ROOT reforming a month or so ago, I couldn't help but feel excited. They are the one Starcraft 2 team that always had a chemistry unlike any other. They saw themselves as more than just teammates trying to win tournaments and top the ladder... they saw themselves as a group of friends; a family that never forgot the reason they were binded together in the first place. ROOT is a team that sure, cares about results and getting better, but also will never forget or ignore the aspect of fun and entertainment that the game provides, something that most people tend to forget. I'm truly excited to be a part of this mentality and look forward to, as a caster, bringing to the community the values and ideals of friendship, fun, and fierce competitiveness that this team exemplifies above all others. I also see this as a huge opportunity to improve myself as a caster, having the priviledge to interact with some of the greatest minds in the game, enabling me to enhance my ability and knowledge of Starcraft 2. I would like to thank Destiny for suggesting me and Catz for approaching me in regards to becoming ROOT, there is no place I would rather be. - Axeltoss

We at ROOT want to thank Alex for being AWESOME and for his interest in our brand from the beginning.

You can find ROOT's brand new youtube channel at: www.youtube.com/sc2ROOT.

We are steadily trying to grow ROOT to be one of the biggest teams in eSports, this youtube channel is a step forward in that direction to provide the community that has done so much for us with a lot of new fresh content on a regular basis. please keep cheering for us and support our team.

follow us at @ROOT4ROOT on twitter and give us a like on facebook.com/sc2ROOT and of course, please subscribe to our youtube (sc2ROOT).

The first two videos we are posting include a brand new intro video I hope you enjoy (i made it myself) as well as a casted game of Axeltoss and drewbie + an analysis breakdown of a game by Axeltoss and myself (CatZ)

CatZ vs EroSennin - by Axeltoss and CatZ (Analysis)


Coca vs Gumiho - by Drewbie and Axeltoss (Cast)

Thanks again everyone!
ROOT 4 ROOT!!!
