ESL One Cologne 2020 on-air talent announced

14-8-2020 18:51

ESL has revealed the broadcast lineup for the upcoming Cologne event, which has been divided into four regions.

ESL One Cologne will be held online across four regional divisions — Europe, North America, Asia and Oceania — with a combined $500,000 prize pool. The tournaments will run from August 18-30 and feature the highest value of ESL Pro Tour points.

stunna has been allocated the "quarantine cam" role for the event

In Europe and North America, the broadcast talent will split their attention between the regions in two casting trios. Lauren "Pansy" Scott, Alex "⁠Machine⁠" Richardson and Chad "⁠SPUNJ⁠" Burchill are the first trio who will talk the viewers through the action, with Harry "JustHarry" Russell, Frankie "⁠Frankie⁠" Ward and Hugo "Hugo" Byron also lending their voices to the matches.

The on-air team for Asia and Oceania is headlined by Jordan "Elfishguy" Mays, who has worked at several Big Events as a commentator, including the ESL Pro League Season 7 Finals and the 2018 and 2019 IEM Sydney events, and is the host of the Geographically Challenged podcast, which covers Asian Counter-Strike.

Below is the complete on-air lineup for ESL One Cologne 2020:

The only thing British people contribute with in csgo, great casters. As for the player scene, absolutely garbage.

2020-08-15 10:25

Wat Where is anders and Henry Scrawny and launders?

10 replies

I am glad that launders and scrawny aren't part of it. Like I don't hate them, I just don't enjoy their style of casting. I definitely prefer Hugo and Harry

Scrawny and launders for na

nah look at the tweet it says "EU/NA"

2020-08-14 18:58

2020-08-14 19:21

true

2020-08-14 19:56

2020-08-14 22:23

Harry's voice has a very positive vibe. I feel like listening to it instantly gives you +10 happy points.

2020-08-15 07:54

launders is the absolute worst caster of all time

2020-08-14 19:48

2020-08-15 04:29

2020-08-14 22:47

Hugo and harry= dynamic Good

They are fucking cringe

2020-08-14 19:55

2020-08-14 21:21

German casters - best casters

3 replies

they are really bad, 99damage casters suck so much

but are they worse than the 2nd trio?

2020-08-14 20:31

Everyone is better then the second trio

Frankie "⁠Frankie⁠" Ward OK

still no HenryG? big sad

pansy ok but frankie?? wtf

why frankie?? she literally knows nothing about the game

2020-08-14 18:55

She does knows quite a bit.

2020-08-14 19:01

silver player :|

Not enough to be a commentator imo, she's a fine interviewer

2020-08-14 19:17

We'll see, I haven't heard her do any casting before. Could be good, could be bad.

Stewie my congratulations

2020-08-14 19:27

kinda surprised there is no HenryG Pimp or Maniac for such a big event

fuck maniac. all my homies hate maniac.

2020-08-14 20:05

i can say you further, nobody like maniacs

2020-08-14 21:10

You spelled Pimp incorrectly.

2020-08-14 21:26

Nah, at least pimp can speak straight facts. But according to maniac every team is perfect, every player is wonderful. :D

2020-08-15 06:53

rip moses sadokist

2020-08-14 18:57

so sad :(((((

2020-08-14 19:53

+YNk :((((

2020-08-14 20:57

Where is HenryG?

sick :D quarantine cam

Is frankie casting, would be interesting to see

2020-08-14 19:00

hell no, she will bring her feminism shit into the casting

Ik i just didnt want to get grilled, still i think it can be interesting but i prefer her doing the interviews and such

2020-08-14 20:27

i prefer her doing nothing cs related she doesn't even know the game well

2020-08-14 20:29

2020-08-14 20:46

Will need to see first, but Harry/Hugo will probably be doing their usual thing, with Frankie giving some input every now and then.

2020-08-14 22:48

Sounds kinda cool accually

2020-08-15 01:20

No Sadokist, no HenryG, no Anders, no Maniac, they could've invited ddk and black ddk, even though they are rivals. Would've been much more entertaining for the viewer. No seang@res as well...

sadokist doesn't cast anymore,not their choice

2020-08-14 20:12

Ik it's a shame tho. And it's all due to the "accident" that happened.

2020-08-15 07:48

+1 for seangares actually gives great information about what is going on during the match

2020-08-14 20:15

Trio 1 6/10 Trio 2 just delete plz

Pansy lul

2020-08-14 19:05

No HenryG?

2020-08-14 19:34

My name is misspelled :(

cant wait

2020-08-14 19:42

very bad

Fantastic, Hugo and Harry finally doing one of the top 2 tournaments in the year.

2020-08-14 19:47

Nice to see Pansy again. This would be a good team all round without Frankie, I'll pass on those games.

PANSY IS BACK <3

Harry and hugo are the most annoying people in the circuit. Get them out of these tier 1 events. The first trio is tier S, the second is tier D. Bloody awful.

+9999999

have you ever heard of a guy named scrawny? there could be a lot worse

2020-08-14 20:22

Scrawny is not as annoying as those two

he is far more annoying he is the worst caster in cs

2020-08-14 20:59

I like Scrawny. Hugo and Harry are just unbearable for me.

2020-08-14 23:38

ez 4 britain lets goo

2020-08-14 19:59

nice, cant wait

2020-08-14 20:01

nice

2020-08-14 20:19

Honestly I don't know why but I feel like every even with Thorin is just better. I miss this guy in ESL events.

2020-08-14 20:32

nt thorin

2020-08-15 15:22

Fuck you got me.

2020-08-15 16:52

I agree with you for once. I one quadrillion percent agree. Thorin is the best analyst and guy to have in any tournament

2020-08-16 08:48

I agree.

2020-08-16 14:07

Pansy POG. Long time no see.

gonna be missing the spunj, henry and machine trio((

2020-08-14 20:50

gonna miss them all cuz no one is good.

2020-08-14 20:52

Trio 1 better do EU.

2020-08-14 20:53

Shitty lineup of casters IMHO Oh well, should be a good event

Pansy POG

2020-08-14 21:22

nice, hope russian stream has better casters

2020-08-14 21:23

trio 1 > all fucking legends

2020-08-14 21:25

wtf how am i excited for talent

2020-08-14 21:35

frankie <3

2020-08-14 21:44

Wtf where is thorin? Btw thorin can you unblock me on twitter

2020-08-14 21:46

Omg, cs scene will be much worse without HenryG and Moses,

2020-08-14 22:11

No henryG :(

2020-08-14 22:12

Pansy is back? Cool, it feels like forever since she casted, where has she been?

2020-08-14 22:38

to be released on dmax. still standing byy

2020-08-14 23:01

Pansy poggers

2020-08-14 23:49

Nice cast 5/6 - Frankie

2020-08-15 00:27

Glad to see Pansy back and Frankie getting some casting work.

Only betas and pussies get annoyed by someones voices. It's even someone so far away and you don't know very well. They're just doing their job. Shut up already you fucking cringe bettors. Go watch Russian /gaules stream if u don't like the casters. Pussies.

2020-08-15 01:31

not that I'm fan of pimp, but I'm surprised he wasn't picked

2020-08-15 11:28

Pansy! My girl!

2020-08-15 15:03

RIP. Sadokist quit casting and HenryG isn't here maybe cause of the allegations. Could have added Black DDK and DDK. To make it interesting and fun. No Moses either and Anders

2020-08-15 16:33

Ive really been disliking ESL's tricasts. :/ Idk why its the standard now

2020-08-15 20:30

When will semmler Anders be back? Maybe semmler carries him better. Anyways except from HUDs nothing is great from ESL production. Observing is good but can improve.
