Availer is terrible. Don't really mind Rahim, I just wish that there would be more top tier casters to balance it out, as I'm not sure if Sadokist "le funny facts" Trivett and HenryG "zero background research" Greer count in the aforementioned category.

Is Babam the guy that shouted "BABAM!" nonstop at the Mineski event? I know, it's probs a stupid question, but I'm not sure. He (guy I'm thinking of) casted with Allyza Taylor. Reason for asking is because I looked up "Babam Mineski" and no results.

BABAM Yessss, good to see him back! He deserves an honest chance without being intimidated by RL. It may be true that Rahim is not everyone's favorite caster, but he caters to a part of the CS:GO audience that likes his casting. And just as the majority get their Semmler/Anders/DDK/JZFB/Sadokist etc., minorities should also be entitled to the casters they like. And I'm not speaking only about Rahim, but also for example dabo0, Metuz, Tobiwan, Helium, Launders etc.

Because he's a cunt? Also the previous drama between him and babam. Taketv likes their tournaments to be pretty casual (homestory cup for example) so they probably value rahim's humor over some edgy banter on the analysis desk.

Lewis was a cunt when Babam pulled a guy off the German stream so he could do his 'thing'? Mr.babam shat on the entire caster line up in the previous event by refusing to cast with any of them
