Also a bit sad for lack of Take, I hope that Mori will have interesting cocasters at least and doesn't solotank the whole event. Yeah, the German scene pretty muched developed into something which I cheer for pretty much anything non-Protoss.Also a bit sad for lack of Take, I hope that Mori will have interesting cocasters at least and doesn't solotank the whole event.

I don't know, Take and his team has become quite a brand themselves. So if they start using their name to make their own events instead of piggybacking on other events (ATC, HSC), it will only make the European scene better.

Are there any plans to let Apollo&Kaelaris cast some of it aswell (Maybe not the cups but atleast ro8 onwards) or will it be a mostly german casted event?



That said I'm hoping for the terrans and Zergs do defeat their Protoss overlords for a change.

Go HeroMarine and Panzergeneral!

gogo hero marine Mori is such a bad caster, really makes me sad to see him be the main caster for this. Very little game knowledgegogo hero marine

yoshi7319 Profile Joined December 2011 76 Posts Last Edited: 2013-10-03 13:16:14 #14 no disrespect to Mori, but the takecrew casting the German EPS has always been something very special among the hundreds of casts and tournaments, people like SaltTheWound or Naruto et al know the players personally and are not afraid to make...er...special comments about them and their play (aka flame them) and provide a unique and very entertaining cast. a real shame they´ll only play a bit part in the future.

ATC and HSC are events from TakeTV directly, they are not jetzt sreaming it. So they defenitly have their own brand already.



But TakeTV will still get all matches, right? Or just the ones Mori cant stream? Would be a shame if they couldnt cast everything.



And if the offline part is without TaKe, it really isn't EPS. think about it, ESL. ATC and HSC are events from TakeTV directly, they are not jetzt sreaming it.

SinCitta Profile Blog Joined August 2010 Germany 2127 Posts #16 Wouldn't jump to conclusions like you guys. Maybe TaKeTV didn't make a bid or wasn't ready to make the same commitments as Mori? Maybe TaKe focuses on other stuff etc.



Last season the EPS was overlapping with WCS Europe the whole time. That was pretty bad. And for me personally, WCS Europe has overshadowed the EPS not only in the time slots, but also conceptwise. A regular competition, giving the chance for established and new players alike.



DjHorsi Profile Joined March 2013 17 Posts #17 No Take on the Offlinefinals will be so sad.

Personally i don't like Mori, cause he is like TobiWan in Dota2, shouting loud and wild, but having no real idea about the game.

If he gets a really good cocaster i think it might be fine anyway, but they wont be as funny as the taketv dudes.

4tre55 Profile Joined June 2011 Germany 267 Posts #18 NO Take is sad, but Mori and Kaelaris are great, too. Heromarinewill win btw, wonder why he's not even an option. At least if he plays all cups this time.

SpikeStarcraft Profile Joined October 2011 Germany 2092 Posts #19 hmmm nobody seems to notice that the eps cups got halfed now with only 16 players instead of 32. Its true that most of the times there were still some empty spots but it was fun that it was so accessible for everyone.

Maybe its better to make those cups more exclusive and less time consuming. In the past the cups were colliding a lot with WCS.. but that shouldnt be a problem now since wcs eu is over.

EPS was already a lot of the same matchups over and over again... i guess we'll see more of that then. And im kinda afraid that monchi is not gonna play eps and retire. Hes not in the a-series so he probably wont be able to play the cups.. and according to liquipedia his contract with xmg expires on the 20th of october.. too many players already retired :/



EPS without Take is gonna be a bit weird too...

Their casting of the EPS playoffs made it on national television. They probably need to focus more on ATC and HSC now since that takes a lot of time and you cant cast everything..but at least for the playoffs its kinda tradition... :/

To be clear what the very best means:



I think the show will start 20 minutes before 7PM CET and we will have pre-season chit-chat about players, chances and our view on the situation (thats what I imagine it to be). Also... we will try to have fun during breaks and the periods we have no games to cover while being serious and hopefully spot on in-game. Also, we might have cocktails!



Kind regards Dennis (TaKe) and me will be casting todays EPS-Cup. Obviously we may not cast the same games as Mori in addition to missing the final, but for the rest, we will give our very bestTo be clear what the very best means:I think the show will start 20 minutes before 7PM CET and we will have pre-season chit-chat about players, chances and our view on the situation (thats what I imagine it to be).
