The only one im missing is 2GD, but I guess he is busy. Can you guys imagine what would happened if you put Geoff and 2GD on the sofa? I think the universe would explode! Incontrol for the sofa and apollo/wolf as casters sounds great but I agree on 2GD, both surprised and disappointed that he's not the announcer or whatever. Guess he's busy or something.
When asked, 2GD have said that he's not really into hosting, but he personally recommended semmler for the job. What ive seen of Semmler at the GD studio, he seems like a really cool guy.
From a reddit AMA: "I'm not a big fan of myself hosting, I've arranged DreamHacks host for 2012 and its not me, if he fails I will do cameo appearances."

incontrol casting?
Momma like! DApollo with iNcontrol is lovely!
|
Apollo is probably the best caster out there right now. Spot on analysis, able to distinguish essentials from superficialities .. sees the map, understands the game-flow, knows what is important for viewers RIGHT NOW and able to put it forward in a casual "talking among friends" kind of way. Plus he has an absolutely gorgeous English accent. Where Artosis can get too bogged down in details, Apollo nails the heart of the action. Pure talent. Pay him liberally, cause he deserves it.
So pleased!
You go Apollo !!
Now, if only Dreamhack could get a seasoned Korean observer too (no one single observer outside of Korea knows how to observe sadly), I would be in heaven!

I have to say, normally I like when events have more casters to rotate in, but with this sick line-up it should be good! How curious that grubby finds himself on the player roster for this very Dreamhack as well as the casting for MLG. Something does not add up here.. I was wondering about that as well, wondering who got it wrong. I'm guessing Grubby won't show up to Dreamhack
Grubby won't show up to Dreamhack indeed.

I like that Semmler is going to do the presentation. Handsome, smart, fluid in english : a perfect frenchman !
|
Wolf, iNcontroL, Semmler forgotten Gatrope ?? terrible drama incoming 1/10
|
|
Looking forward to see iNcontroL cast, he always make me laugh cus he has a great sense of humor.
|
damn..... id rather see TB than incontrol making his european jokes that are not funny... Nice to see wolf tho! Will be interesting to see Wolf/Apollo they are both so technical casters will be interesting + i think they can develop some chemistry.

Since when is Incontrol a serious caster?
One would think that you'd bring someone like Husky or DOA or Day9.

I'm not saying he's good or bad, but doing good PR does not automaticly mean you're a good caster ;P
OT: This is really awesome news! I think iNcontroL will be an excellent host as he's got a great personality, great insight into the game and he does fantastic interviews. Apollo and Wolf are both awesome on their own and I really hope they go well together as a team and this should be one of the best casted tournaments I have ever had the pleasure of watching!

So Sad that HerO won't be there!
|
So MLG will be 30(15 for some) dollars and this will be free? I'm all about supporting E-Sports but right now I'm broke so I guess DH it is.
|
And for people wondering why they haven't signed Day9 and others for this event, this is not nearly as big as Summer/Winter, and will most likely never be. Signing (example) Day9 would be incredibly difficult for anything but the huge Summer and Winter-events. Simple because these Opens aren't as big. And Day9 is bizzi.
See ya at Summer.

Dreamhack > MLG, and its for free!!!!!!!!

I just bought my tickets to go to Dreamhack Stockholm. 200 SEK for two days of live starcraft action and a chance to meet the pros? So worth it.
