The man who needs no introduction but gets one anyway, iNcontroL is well known in the foreign SC scene, and while not being the strongest Zerg player on the circuit he more than makes up for it in personality. Juggling his playing time between weightlifting, football and giving StarCraft lessons, he still finds the time to appear in nearly all foreign SC events. Check out his latest replays from the PS.com TSL Qualifiers!

Brent "PsyonicReaver" Schultz is a well known commentator from the US, boasting over 200 videos on his youtube account and veteran of many foreign Brood War events such as the JustinTV Invitational. The now Phoenix-based 25-year-old will represent the EG team in the commentary team as a roommate and friend to many of the players.
Imagist may be known for his Melbourne-based TL meetups, but is a relatively recent addition to the commentary scene during the Saturday games. While lacking experience in live casting he should bring a unique view being an Australia-based Canadian observing this match and hopefully he will secure a position in future events to come.
iCCup.Raelcun will be the co-host for the Sunday games (Legionnaire/Nyoken and fadetowhite/iNkA). His stream has just been validated and he entered in the TSL commentary contest so check him out when you can! You can also catch his work later that day in the TL Arena.
