you can't beat Legend!
i remember how excited i was for the finals last year. parting and creator playing a series were the winner takes 100k away was just blowing my head off, and this year we have about 1000 times more hype revolving around it.
it's going to cost me a fortune to watch it off my shitty pre-paid internet stick but it'll be worth it.

Couldn't find anything on Liquipedia, anyone help me out? Startale Legend is the GSL observer for the english stream. The man catches everything going on and moves the cursor around important stuff if the casters has not seen it.

I think with all those casters/hosts/analysts we will miss probably Kaelaris, Grubby, Take and Khaldor, with addition of this four guys WCS crew would be perfect.

Why do they need DJWheat for analysis desk? He barely has anything to do with SC2 nowadays and now he is to do the analysis? I really dislike him, for having left the SC2 scene more or less. If you say, he is just "hosting" the analysis desk, why is Incontrol not enough for doing this? Can't understand why the analysis desk needs a separate host. Also why do you need three observers? Aren't two enough, there only can be one person hosting at a time.
Feels like they just invited almost anyone who ever did something in SC2, but then why again not Kaelaris who casted 1000s of WCS games the past year?
Other than that, I'm really happy with the people they choose. I'm sure the casters and Redeye are going to do an AMAZING job. Really just hope that the blizzcon crowd has enough SC2 fans. A bit worried about this, because multi-game events often tend to have less of a good crowd than SC2-only events (best example S3 finals with the AMAZING canadian crowd ).

Spoiled brats the lot of you... Actually your post is the most whiny in this thread so far, it has been mostly a healthy discussion about the analyst desk as there is not much to say about the others since Chobra/Redeye are the best and the spectator roles are less important.
I actually care more about the game observer than anything else, and I wish they were able to get the GOMtv guys.

These are all good news, awesome to have DJWheat back on a stage!

Awesome lineup, I'm starting to get really excited for Blizzcon!

The three of them will be at the analyst desk to analyze the games after they end. Artosis and Apollo along with several other casters are going and I assume they will be casting in pairs. I for one hope to see a little brother on brother casting action with Day[9] and Tasteless

Seriously? Wheat was involved in Esports long before the release of SC2, you speak with such self entitlement, he doesn't owe the SC2 community anything, and he especially doesn't owe you (essentially a nobody) anything. Where in your thought process did you deduce that it would be a good idea to single out someone who has contributed so much for the scene in the past and decide to irrationally hate on him for going inactive? Do you also hate Marineking, Stephano, Bisu? What utter tripe.

He still plays regularly, and plays other games(like beyond2souls etc), I don't think he plays LoL.
