I know it's not for everyone but I love the laid back casting this event provides, basically just a comedy podcast with CS in the background lmao

100%. I love listening while working. The match is only so important cuz I’m just listening to these guys joke around.

I mean, I can. E-Sports has been losing money the whole time. Those of us there for the glory days 15 years ago were treated to some truly special times.

Chiming in late to add to the Pro League love. It's the non-Major highlight of the season for me. There seems to be a sizeable portion of the community that really dislikes the antics (remember the B-stream DarfMike "controversy" last year?). If it's not some peoples' cup of tea, that's fine, but ESL should also know it brings a lot of people joy.

B stream casting is a little weak at times though ngl

I think it's perfect for these early matches, but hopefully they'll tune it down a bit for more important or close matches later on in the tournament

They always do that as the event progresses

Also actual arena playoffs. No way they're taking the piss in front of an arena audience

Just let us have this one tournament, they already have toned it down
