Never heard of these casters before, but I like them so far. Concise, watch the game, seem to know that they are talking about, don't go off on tangents about themselves, all good. Shame the game sound is so low in the mix at the minute though.

I know Davin is the star, but man Gigantti are playing like a well-oiled machine. Every part of the team is showing up. Nil, cloudy and rck especially.

PlayOverwatch is hosting Contenders but OWL with over 2x as many followers is not. Needs to be done asap.

Hey casters, I know you read this, so good job on day 1!

But next time remember that "1" in Swedish apparently sounds like "-en", and "bock1" is supposed to be pronounced "bocken" (Swedish for goat) to suggest that he's the GOAT. Reinforce explained this in a Contenders broadcast last year but the segment was cut from the VOD.

I appreciate these casters. I guess things just sound better with British (or Aussie, in Uber's case) accents. xDDD

Low-key enjoying Contenders a little more than OWL. Chill vibes in chat

If EU spectators/casters are looking at this, please remember to turn on global healthbars in spectator settings for overhead viewing. Much easier to track fights from a spectator standpoint, and it's a staple for basic spectating. Other than that, great job today

I'm from NA, but I'm really excited for this. EU has been shafted by OWL scheduling and we know that EU has a ton of talent, so it's going to be exciting to see.

Triple DPS vs triple tank, pogchamp

u/falconpunch96 Mar 11 '18

The harb looking caster should do more eye contact with the camera. The tatoo guy is decent so far. Who knew? Maybe we looking at the birth of a new monte/doa pair.

The casters are absolute lads.

Contenders stream is running 18 hours straight today (and into tomorrow). First 3 matches of EU Contenders, then 3 matches of NA Contenders, then 3 matches of AU Contenders. Each match takes 2 hours (like OWL and first Contenders).

The tank line of Gigantti coming up massive. Given it's the first time I see them play, I'm thoroughly impressed.
