16 talent members to deliver "unique experience" in ESL Pro League S17 broadcast

ESL promises a new experience for the upcoming broadcast of ESL Pro League, which will boast a total of 16 talent members.

ESL have announced the on-air broadcast team for ESL Pro League Season 17, which will run from February 22-March 26. The list boasts 16 members, including many staple figures and a newcomer to tier-one event commentary in Lucy "LucyLuce" Eastwood.

Lead producer of the tournament promised the broadcast of the month-long event would bring "something new." Alex "⁠Mauisnake⁠" Ellenberg, who is a part of the talent lineup, also said on Twitter that "there's a lot in store for this season that'll make it a unique experience."

HenryG and Dinko feature on the 16-member talent list

What exactly that will entail is yet to be seen. ESL has not distinguished the talent members by roles and called it a "family show" in the announcement Tweet.

EPL personally is the most boring tournament out of the whole calendar goes so long and spans over a big time that the matches from 1 and 2nd week become very forgetful by the end. its like the groups and playoffs feel like entirely different events.

Groups and playoffs being different events was the whole thing. They fucked up by holding them in Malta, that’s all. Pre COVID was perfect. Studio groups and go to a different place each time for playoffs.
2023-02-17 18:55

I mean, groups and playoffs were a separate thing for a long time. It's only post-pandemic that they've been combined.

that wouldnt even make sense role wise, bardolph is not even color caster and semmler used to be both, but objectivly speaking spunj is just a better color caster than semmler, if u really wanted perfect lineup u would have to kick rookies and change dinko for sadokist

sadokist couldnt get there, covid plane incident or something like this and they moved moses to analist because of that and said bardolph that he ll cast quaters or something like this, later on they realised that they can get anders as a replacment and moses/anders duo is goated so they moved moses and anders back to casting and bardolph went off after that, he said that semmler/moses are pieces of shit and they made him not cast it, when later on it was proven that they had nothing to do with it and it was all managment decision

Why are they being so vague? Is it supposed to be a surprise? Why is the headline worded so weirdly, what is the point of this announcement? Instead of just revealing the talent they promise to bring something new? Do they even know what's going to be so special themselves? I mean, what could they be talking about? They're casters. They are going to present the event, cast the matches and interview the players. What more can they do? Will they learn some magic tricks?
