I am really happy with this run of casting from last weekend’s OWCS playoffs.
You really need to wait and hope for great gameplay moments in order to be able to do this, and it’s nice to know I can still give my best to the esport that gave me so much

I know that times are weird right now but if you'll permit us to spread a bit of positivity on the TL...
@DriftwoodAsh and I are excited to be welcoming a beautiful child into the world, around Christmas!
What a life changer. I don't deserve such a blessing but I can't wait 😍

Idk who needs to hear this but
When the news of someone passing away becomes public, it is EXTREMELY inappropriate and disrespectful to ask how they died.
The difficult and terrible news is being shared so that others may process and grieve not to satisfy your morbid curiosity

My heart is so full. Thank you so much, all of you.
Another finals casted from my garage but I've never felt closer to all of you who love this beautiful game as much as I do.
Can't wait to see all your smiling faces again soon.
Bring on 2022 and OW2!

never thought the voice of oce would come across like such a pick-me
if youre in that much of a hurry to devalue the craft of casting just go and undercut your peers. more effective and produces one less utter tripe opinion on the internet

Saw some speculation today so I wanted to make something clear:
I’m on a 2 year contract with the @overwatchleague so I will be back this year.
On a personal note, the responsibility to go beyond in my casting weighs heavier this year than ever.
I’ll give it all I’ve got.

Finally this prick can focus on casting with ME
Unfortunately today, along with a lot of other amazing esports folks, I’ve been let go from Blizzard. Casting Overwatch and working behind the scenes planning some of the best years we’ve had with Overwatch Esports and the upcoming year with the new OWCS was a dream come true. Hopefully I can still stay involved with the OW scene in the future but if anyone wants to chat product, production, talent work, email is in my bio <3

uh so yeah there’s like a bunch of reasons that I’m not casting the pro-am
Basically a mix of immigration stuff on my side, immigration stuff on OWLs side plus ash can’t really deal with a newborn and ‘terrible’ 2yo alone while recovering from an operation soooo
All is fine 🫡

Ever just wake up wondering why @EloHellEsports are paying their casters ONE FIFTH of the standard rate to do KR/CN contenders, cucking @imAVRL out of a gig he should be a shoo-in for, and why @owpathtopro are completely cool with this?
Oh just me? Cool

It's days like today that I feel the immense weight of responsibility. It doesn't make me anxious, but it fills me with a sense of reverence, like I'm treading carefully across hallowed ground.
I am honored to be casting @SFShock vs @SeoulDynasty in the #OWL2020 Grand Finals.

A lot of people will share their opinions over the next week or so, many will gloat, many will say they told you so
Frankly I don’t mind, some have had legitimate misgivings about what we tried to do but I don’t have the luxury to think about that. Family to feed, games to cast

Honestly, this guy has more grace in his little finger than I do in my whole body.
Bloke loses the casting of a region that he worked so hard on due to being severely undercut (this is not mere speculation) and then humbly expresses his regret and moves on.
Gutted for you man.
Unfortunately I will not be on the Contenders Korea broadcast. The opportunity has moved elsewhere and I wish the broadcast and new talent all the best. I will still be part of Contenders in AU this year and I will be committed to bringing APAC content with OWL and KR co-streams.

That might have been the best game I’ve ever cast
I dunno it’s an honour to have been able to cast every owl final but they’ve so often been one sided
this one was special for so many reasons and the best part is there’s more to come
the magic seeps out of the stones here

it is extremely concerning that before this email went out, riot were willing to waive the mandatory training
its not about the training itself, but the principle - being so blasé about enforcing their own guidelines in the face of very severe allegations doesnt send a good msg
Contrary to Sinatraa's email Riot has now stated that he will undergo the training required.
Why do this now after the email was made public by Sinatraa? Funny how you only do this when everything is already public.
Embarrassing.

Colour commentator: on-the-fly analysis, deals with the why, and the how. Often provides background contex
Play-by-play: creates cohesive narrative in real time, parses out the most important happenings and delivers in order of priority. The what, and the who.

1,305
Those of you who have noticed that I've been much more blunt and direct lately with my platform use aren't imagining things; I think I've just run out of patience with seeing the same bullshit over and over again in this industry. Fair warning, expect more of the same.

This was the experience I was dreaming of being a part of when I started making OW content back in 2015, months before the closed beta landed.
Special moment to see that realised in the homestand era. Thank you New York, you've been fucking awesome. #OWL2020

Kinda weird that the apparent endgame of casting (for many) is getting OUT of casting to something more stable in a more backend role
For some ppl this is fine as it was maybe only a stepping stone but I’m so loud about rates and shit because I want to cast till I die

Had some lovely feedback after this weekend but it's so often tinged with "Uber' s style only works in overwatch he wasn't good in CS" "he can't handle slower paved games" etc etc
Couple things:
1. When I casted CS I was still very green as a caster
2. I fucking banged in val
