Doesn't have to be only $ tournaments, can be clan wars, OSC challenge matches, talk shows, etc.

SSFP, OSC and SCTV showing the casters some love. Hopefully we have all OSC casters busy playing.
Eddie, any chance we can have this on a twitter post? I will try to call out some pro players to also commentate the games, giving back to the casters what the casters give to them.

Can I participate? I have done some casting for the Finnish sc2 scene when circumstances have allowed. You can ask https://twitter.com/y0su_ to confirm, he is our resident english caster over here.

Edit: I just realized it was lotv archon, do i need to get another caster with me to do this?

Quick Comments

SSfp_Saulo:

If you have casted something, yes you can. And yes, you will need a caster partner.

SSfp_Saulo · Wed, 27th-May-2015, 6:41 PM

Guys, we are almost there. Would be great to see PoX, Soundwave, Nemesis, Fenner in action if they haven't signed up yet.
Who are the best players, I mean, casters out there?
