I'm still a little confused as I feel like it could be construed either way (ie: he was on fire or he was a dumpster fire) but I'll take it as you liked him. I liked him, he was super enthusiastic. He was doing a bit of the old school Sportscenter thing with the references/one-liners, but I enjoy that and we don't really have anyone who does that consistently in the scene so it's a good niche to fill. Also he talks even faster than Dread did to start.

EDIT: rofl went back and started watching from the beginning to see the Fnatic match and the others I missed. When the announcer called SMX as S M X

 

[Zackat]

It could mean "now we're cookin' with gas"


He did fine. I am not a very harsh critic when it comes to these things though.

 

[scoobs]

Wait who are we even talking about? I slept through basically all of it, what did I miss?

 

[Alur]

The new ANZ caster Skimmy.

 

[Orochinagis]

I think something strange is happening with her character in Warcraft right now, she's turning evil or something idk. Jaina hasn't been a cool character since Theramore. RIP

Yeah, Jaina is the main feature on the incoming heartstone expansion as an evil character also she left the Kirin tor and possibly the Alliance in Legion because she felt betrayed when the Kirin Tor allowed the Horde to be in Dalaran again to help fight the Burning Legio (She purged all Horde NPCs from Dalaran before).

Spoilers---

And possibly she is going to

Spoiler

betray the alliance

in the near future.

Isn't the gimmick that everyone turns evil in the next HS expansion?

Yep, but jaina is the main marketing character because is a frost mage and her white hair turned pink due being a Death Knight which is a pretty cool what if scenario

[Milly79]

Anyone else pay little to no attention to casters?

 

[Ketch]

I think that Jaina art is for a new Warcraft mobile game to be announced at blizzcon

Would explain the ANIME appearance.

 

[scoobs]

I think that Jaina art is for a new Warcraft mobile game to be announced at blizzcon

Or the next WoW expansion, clearly she will be a major player in it

 

[Orochinagis]

Or the next WoW expansion, clearly she will be a major player in it

Yep, the design is based on her WoW version......can believe we have a HotS version, a Heartstone version and a WoW version of Jaina.

 

[Zackat]

I wonder what they are gonna announce for this game at blizzcon. Obviously some characters. Idk what else? Anything cool that they could do?

 

[Orochinagis]

Probably next HotS hero, next WoW expansion, more Starcraft remake stuff and Destiny 2 I guess

 

[Rhaknar]

Probably next HotS hero, next WoW expansion, more Starcraft remake stuff and Destiny 2 I guess

one hero at blizzcon? no way, at least 3

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

New map, new brawl, maybe new features

HoTS 3.0 cause 2.0 sucks

 

[Karsticles]

Kel'Thuzad incoming.

 

[kirblar]

KTZ, Firebat, Ana, Junkrat is the rumored pre-Blizzcon lineup, with Alexstraza as at least one of the event reveals.

Apparently there was a leak/tease back in March on a Russian forum that had Stukov/Malthael/KTZ/Deathwing/(Hybrid from SC2) in an image, and so those last two might be in the late 2016/2017 docket.

 

[scoobs]

Alexstraza and Deathwing revealed together at Blizzcon would make a lot of sense.

 

[jaundicejuice]

The next WoW expansion is speculated as being in Kul'Tiras and the South Seas fighting Old Gods, pirates and probably Naga based off of some of the data that's been mined on the latest PTR.

http://www.pcgamer.com/blizzard-may...ocation-of-world-of-warcrafts-next-expansion/

7.3 is going to be the last content patch for Legion and Jaina has been notably absent from Legion after the events on The Broken Shore and when the Horde were allowed back in to Dalaran. Everyone is speculating that she's gone to Kul'Tiras, so that key art could be for the next WoW expanion reveal at Gamescon.

 

[Milly79]

GFE no damage into Expert cheese comp. 🤦

 

[scoobs]

GFE no damage into Expert cheese comp. 🤦

Diablo Medivh is cheese?

 

[Milly79]

It's expert... doesn't matter it's all cheese

 

[Milly79]

Jesus gfe terrible

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

Nice Fnatic overtook Dig in cheers.


Kinda glad GFE are getting bodied can't let #1 NA get to their heads.

 

[brian!]

Great illidan shotcalling and play that game
Valla trinity + roamy mura + illidan is a great comp for this map

 

[Milly79]

Lolwaat

 

[brian!]

Man sonya would have been better than leoric here
Really enjoy grubby's whole "btw this is what went over the analyst desk's heads" when the game starts

Man it's annoying watching aka play, clear weak link in the team imo

That was nt from gfe, their comp was good but their play wasnt tight enough and expert played their comp dutifully and won

 

[scoobs]

Lol Expert held up some signs that said "NA LUL" after they won. That series was good, closer than it should have been. Good showing by GFE imo

 

[brian!]

Tf giving up that boss for keep and 20 was sich a great call

 

[Zackat]

Wow that was great

 

[Milly79]

Sick boss call by tf

 

[Milly79]

Holy shit the turns

 

[Zackat]

God damn. TF keeps pulling it off

 

[Vimes]

This cheering stuff is confusing.

Do I have to go full whale to get a TL banner?

EDIT: Okay after taking the plunge I see I get a full set of team swag for $14. Wish it were cheaper but I've invested worse into this game (and at least I know what I'm getting since it doesn't involve bloody loot boxes, jfc).

 

[kirblar]

KingCaffeine looks really, really bad on Anub'Arak.

 

[Ketch]

This break music is pretty fuckin good

Just tuned in and I'm already hype as fuck

Edit:

Also, glaurung is killing it in the panel right now.

 

[Milly79]

I liked fan more but I'm bias

 

[Alpha Centauri]

I liked fan more but I'm bias

I think Fan was the best of the 3/4/5 guys, but Glau is doing alot better than yesterday atleast

 

[Isaccard]

As long as it's not SolidJake casting, I'm good.

 

[Ketch]

I liked fan more but I'm bias

Did you see himtalkng shit to khaldor about Zuna? That was great.

 

[Zackat]

this dude spending like 1000 bucks on bits.

I am amazed

 

[Milly79]

Did you see himtalkng shit to khaldor about Zuna? That was great.

Nope lol

 

[Azzurri]

Nothing like playing a few games and winning after not playing for 1.5 years. Greymane still kicking ass and Varian is plain badass.

 

[Ketch]

Fan is a fucking beast.

 

[Alur]

Who has won today? I've been out and still out.

 

[Ketch]

Who has won today? I've been out and still out.

GFE top 4 and moving forward.

TS out. Finish 5/6

 

[Milly79]

I really hope one day NA gets their shit together.

 

[Alur]

So Tempo Storm gonna have a change incoming surely?

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

Who knows, they've been getting destroyed every single international now.

I'm more interested in whether liquid will make changes. They are so shaky these days, getting beaten twice by freedom and they'll never beat Fnatic at this point.
