5-6-2023 19:11

A crew of nine will bring the tournament broadcast to life.

ESL have announced the full nine-member list of broadcast talent that will accompany viewers through ESL Challenger Katowice 2023. The event will be live between June 9-11 and will host eight teams competing for $100,000 and a spot at ESL Pro League Season 18.

Recently crowned IEM Dallas champions ENCE will be in attendance, looking to carry their momentum and take one more trophy before the tournament break. Virtus.pro, FORZE, and paiN will be the only other top 30 teams in Katowice as they aim to spoil Marco "⁠Snappi⁠" Pfeiffer and company's run and earn international silverware.

⁠BARDOLPH and hawka will bring the action from the server to life

The all-British desk will feature Jasmine "⁠Veracity⁠" Kanuga as the host, accompanied by analysts Allan "⁠Allan⁠" Hender, Michael "⁠YouM3⁠" Cassidy, and Jack "Wolfy" Saunders.

The reliable duo of James "⁠BARDOLPH⁠" Bardolph and Alex "⁠hawka⁠" Hawkins will take on casting responsibilities fresh off their time commentating IEM Dallas. Harvey "skriv" Rodgers and Neo "Ne0kai" Caine will also share time behind the microphone throughout the tournament, while Sam "⁠Tech Girl⁠" Wright will be tasked with interviews on stage in the studio.

Same, except bardolph and hawka I have barely heard of any of them

2023-06-06 22:27

why Bardolph cast B-tier tournaments? There are only two cast lines i remember "Oh and there is another one" and "This isn't fpl this is a major" While Semmler is so fucking far away from his prime. Bardolph has still a lot to give.
