GeaR said before that he's too busy in the weeks before i52 to get his DM to the level where he'd be comfortable competing with the best, I don't think that'll have changed. And stefan hasn't been seen on scout in forever but that'd be insanely sick if they got him back. I would imagine the lineup will stay as: Knoxxx, seb, mike, tek, kiler, bash for i52. Good chance of getting an NAvEU final, but still not toooo confident. The NA scouts (clockwork) might rip them apart.

EDIT: Also from what I can tell from talking to epsi people they're genuinely distressed at having to kick raymon, just mike does far more on pocket and that bumps knoxxx onto med. Pretty unlucky because he certainly isn't the problem.

I'm a bit confused as to what you're trying to do Selo. You're asking for casting and camera advice; are you wanting to shoutcast or be in control of the camera?

You could do both I guess if you wanna do it on your own channel, but for all the orgs (which I assume you'd be trying to join since otherwise you're achieving nothing since you'll be getting tiny viewer numbers) they have dedicated casters and dedicated cameramen. There is a real lack of cameramen right now though, jon works his balls off.

Oh that's even better than I was hoping :DD

Is there a reason why Mixup and Froyotech aren't playing? Or was it just scheduling issues?

Knoxxx being retarded :D

EDIT: also big plays from yangpie and muukki

I really wanna see kensi snipe the crap out of people. Don't let me down kensi.

FUCKING HYPE! Really nice work guys, great professional video and I'm looking forward to some awesome showmatches, qualifiers and the event itself!

I translated that from latin and that's the most eloquent paragraph you've ever written Ads. Really pulling out all the stops for these articles, and finding amazing mystery writers too.

think I'm going too, HYPE

metal gear owns idiot, maybe coL can start playing it and actually get good at one game??

WHAT UP NOW YANKS?!?!? WOOOOOoooooooo

It's ok if you're a passive roamer who just watches the flank i.e. GeaR. Haven't seen shadowburn do anything this season that's legitimized his decision to run black box and conch - he'd be much more effective just running default and using his good DM to hit 4 good rockets.

For most players (and teams who rely on their roamers to make space, force ubers and distract) RL/gunboats/equalizer is gonna be the best loadout.
Paintrain if you want to make distracting with backcaps etc a big part of your team plan (limited effectiveness once teams figure out you're doing this but still pretty good), black box if you want to just hold the flank and have two DM-heavy scouts who can rip through teams with an aggressive pocket, shotgun if you're passive like above but have really good hitscan aim and can 1v1 scouts consistently, and conch if you're retarded (honestly cannot see any reason why you would run this on roamer, it makes no sense if you're playing against reasonable-level teams because you have to play so passively or you die before you can make use of it, plus you have to be with the combo on pushes which fucks stuff up so badly).
That's my opinion on it anyway. You don't see many loadout changes in EU prem at least for roamer because the "default" (i.e. gunboats eq) makes the roamer very effective at helping the team - the other unlocks may help you in certain situations but overall I think you're gonna let your team down in crucial scenarios where they need you.

EDIT: I think I made shotgun seem more viable than it really is - you legitimately need ridiculous shotgun aim and you need your team to only need you to hold flank. Same as black box, you need to be only holding the flank and taking those scout fights, you won't be able to jump anywhere or make room or distractions, even forcing will be a pain (but you will get at least one drop to shotgun :D)

I think Mike has had enough of demo for a lifetime :D

Well I do have a 100% win record for officials since I got my new PC...bodes well.
