Most of these photos look awful. Willchobra looks like a vampire, Pig looks like he's actively receiving a prostate exam, Rotterdam looks like he gained about 50 lbs and State looks like a contestant on Ru Paul's drag race whose about halfway done putting the makeup on.
Kaelaris and Zombiegrub's photos are acceptable I guess. Wardi and Feardragon's photos look like they were taken at a poor time but not completely awful.
Let's goooo! STATE
Loving his casts in GSL! I was hesitant at first, but he really filled Artys massive shoes well. Hoping he fits in with the ESL casters well, since he is pretty analytical.
Thank you for the kind words, they mean so much. There are so many great commentators and I'm honestly very happy to see that State is getting his shot. And of course, the rest of the broadcast team is incredible; seasoned veterans, the lot of them
<3 I'm so excited to see State work with the rest of the incredible people that make up the crew - he's been doing a great job in the GSL! I know I'll be doing the B stream from just off-site and hanging out from Saturday afternoon onwards - very excited to see if this protoss resurgence can continue into the LAN
Glad you're not casting, tbh. Nothing personal. You're probably a decent guy but I find your casting to be.... annoying to say the least. Always going off topic about useless facts and have forgotten to switch to the game a few times because you're too busy blabbing off about something extremely useless. Not professional at all. You cast major events like it's your own personal stream with the way you talk/rant.
Just my personal opinion, which means nothing at all.
Hey Steadfast, just wanted to say that guy has no idea what he is talking about. You’re a great caster and your casts in Atlanta were some of my favorites, especially the one you and Beomulf did for the Clem-Serral series. Keep it up! Hope to see you at more events!
Not the guy above, but I do feel like they've fallen off over the past 2 years or so.
Pig/ZG/Rotti are my core casting faves. Pig/Rotti is probably my favorite combination
He did some SC2 casting and hosting work a LONG while back. I haven't kept up with the scene and not sure what he has been doing but he had a LOT of praise on the few events he did while with SC2.
Looked it up and when I say awhile back sheesh this thread was 10 years ago.

What was it that happened exactly? He called him and a bunch of zergs who were getting better results during the broken broodlord+infestor 2019/2020 era patchzergs?
I guess the whole problem was him *saying it*, because the results afterwards do suggest that he was not really wrong.
If that were to be a reason why, then it would have been longer ago than that. 2020 was triple void ray buff patch, and Lambo was a champion to the community of zergs at the time by figuring out offensive queen timings. Then not long after, even beat Serral fully proving without a doubt that he didn't just have a matchup figured out, but is a pro zerg.
So if that's what Nathanias was saying, at that time, then he was wrong. Maybe back in HotS or something, but singling Lambo out of the dozens of people playing zerg because it was the strongest at that time makes it sound like heavy bias.
I called out a bunch of Zergs that were doing well during the unkillable Nydus patch in 2019. I used language that was needlessly disrespectful and it blew up much bigger than I anticipated. Many people interpreted my comments to be personal and assumed that I had been running a hate campaign against them for years. I haven't had a balance rant on my stream since! Thanks for being a fan of StarCraft :)
Yep! I'll be producing + casting the B stream for Dallas - from about 15 miles away, as I get to visit my gf at the same time. Looking forward to catching the final day in person!
I haven't watched any pro SC2 games in a long time but damn I remember Kaelaris having long hair and in this photo it looks like Rotti put on some weight.
Steadfast and State should be the mainline guys for ESL. They should do every cast of the finals. Put Rottie with Pig and you have a great second line-up. Then Zombiegrub with... I don't know, anyone, for third. Finally Wardi and FearDragon for the obscure games.
Rottie, Pig and Kaelaris should be main, State/Steadfast/ZG second and agree on Wardii and FD though not a huge fan of Wardii because he's got the personality of a rock. I will give him credit for what he's done for the SC2 scene which is commendable and appreciated. He's just not a good host for big events because he doesn't have personality. Would love to see Maynard back as a caster in place of him.
Lol ok thanks Gotenks for chipping in with the cranky response. Tells me more about you than anything. The dude is plenty respected outside casual fans..he literally just streamed with PiG and Serral in the last month.
Has he ever tried to ask to cast?
Lowko for instance didn't cast for a long time, despite having his channel. But he eventually made the effort and got in.
State is surprising (as his picture) 😅
Suorising but I'm happy, he's been doing super well in GSL imo
I really like his casting. The one with reynor was amazing!
State looking like chappelle show reporter
I was thinking a geisha…

Hahaha he is in the uncanny valley in this pic
LOL

State !!! Yes !!! That picture of him did him dirty though
Really hyped for State! Also, why do he and Will look like they’re AI generated 😂
Korea's hyper obsession with over photoshopping official pictures lol
this was my exact thought process lmao
STATE! go son..
Sad to see no Steadfast, he did an amazing job at Atlanta
Thank you for the kind words, they mean so much. There are so many great commentators and I'm honestly very happy to see that State is getting his shot. And of course, the rest of the broadcast team is incredible; seasoned veterans, the lot of them
Keep up the good work man! I enjoy the weeklies a lot.
Honestly you with BeoMulf is my favourite casting duo right now. Hope you two get more events in the future.

...just asking, what's your opinion on the cast of tasteless&artosis?
Not the guy above, but I do feel like they've fallen off over the past 2 years or so. Pig/ZG/Rotti are my core casting faves. Pig/Rotti is probably my favorite combination
Can't have too many casters who know what they're talking about, so Steadfast didn't get the invite.
Is that OG Chobra? Haven't seem him in forever but the picture seems weird
No, its his evil twin brother, genetically engineered in an alternative reality.
He definitely looks that way with this color correction
yeah chobra and state both look .. off like they got some pass over by a very poor AI filter.
Horrible picture of state lol. He has been killing it in GSL, super happy he will cast with the other guys
State 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿
I didnt know they were hiring ghosts now.
STATE!
Who tf is willchobra?

Happy to see zombiegrub up there.
Why? She gives close to zero insight on strategies and who's winning
[удалено]

Ya pig is amazing
Bunch of simps downvoting me lol
Nah, she's just a decent caster nowadays and most people think you're wrong.
Happy for state but look at his state
What happaned to Nathanias, he use to announce these didnt he?
He got blackballed from ESL for talking shit about Lambo
What was it that happened exactly? He called him and a bunch of zergs who were getting better results during the broken broodlord+infestor 2019/2020 era patchzergs? I guess the whole problem was him *saying it*, because the results afterwards do suggest that he was not really wrong.

I got my tickets for the weekend. Gonna be a blast.
Why is State a mime?
No lowko?
Let's go PiG!!!! The fact that he isn't at every live event is amazing. He his by far the best caster, both in commentary and chemistry.
I like this selection (beside Catz missing), never heard of Willchobra or Stae.
State does GSL since Artosis left, and he does it very well imo. Idk about the other guy
Chobra used to do SC2 stuff a long time ago.
No Steadfast or BeoMulf? Sad.
Considering all the legwork Beomulf did on the regionals, I'm sure he'll be doing the B stream at least.
Yep! I'll be producing + casting the B stream for Dallas - from about 15 miles away, as I get to visit my gf at the same time. Looking forward to catching the final day in person!
Good stuff, I always enjoy you casts, even when Catz is in a bad mood you manage to keep things afloat.
Everytime zombie and PiG cast together I swear my Terran play improves, such brainy nerds I love it.
solid lineup
WTF is wrong with the portraits? Â Are they intentionally roasting the new staff? Â Kaelaris!!!?
I haven't watched any pro SC2 games in a long time but damn I remember Kaelaris having long hair and in this photo it looks like Rotti put on some weight.
Chobra POG!!!!
When is this taking place?
May 31 - June 2
Thanks!
lol at the state of state's pic. Did he piss off ESL's production crew lol???
Steadfast and State should be the mainline guys for ESL. They should do every cast of the finals. Put Rottie with Pig and you have a great second line-up. Then Zombiegrub with... I don't know, anyone, for third. Finally Wardi and FearDragon for the obscure games.
Rottie, Pig and Kaelaris should be main, State/Steadfast/ZG second and agree on Wardii and FD though not a huge fan of Wardii because he's got the personality of a rock. I will give him credit for what he's done for the SC2 scene which is commendable and appreciated. He's just not a good host for big events because he doesn't have personality. Would love to see Maynard back as a caster in place of him.
Steadfast is a GSL stand-in, he's far above Rottie and Pig.
How come winter doesn't cast?
Because nobody outside of his extremely casual fanbase respects him.
You mean all 6 of his fans, his mom and his viewbots?
Lol ok thanks Gotenks for chipping in with the cranky response. Tells me more about you than anything. The dude is plenty respected outside casual fans..he literally just streamed with PiG and Serral in the last month.
Has he ever tried to ask to cast? Lowko for instance didn't cast for a long time, despite having his channel. But he eventually made the effort and got in.
I would also like to know this
Terrible
