Alex "Axeltoss" Rodriguez here. Zach Wigal (from Gamers for Giving/Skype) and myself decided we wanted to throw a bit of a preshow/hype show to prepare for Red Bull Battlegrounds Detroit.
It will be very simple but a lot of fun! WingnutSC, David "Walshy" Walsh, and James "The Translator" Song will be on board to talk with us as well.
We aim to establish our expectations about the event, talk about some of the players involved, talk about Detroit/Michigan, and involve the community with lots of chat interaction and potentially bringing on folks to ask questions/talk with us.
What you need to know is that the show will be on:
Tuesday 8/5/14 starting at 9:30 PM ET.
Stream here: http://www.twitch.tv/Axeltoss
VOD here: http://www.youtube.com/AxeltossSC
We intend on chatting for about an hour, and afterward we will have some SC2 competition involving the Terran Apocalypse, the Zerg Solar, and the Protoss and recent MLG champion Trap!
James the translator will of course be on board to take questions for the players and help translate and commentate. Speaking of which, here is a blurb about the festitivies following the talk show prepared by James!
"Three players, each representing a race and a Red Bull Battle Grounds event, will collide against one another for awesome prizes of, not one but two, real slices of American Pizza treated by Axeltoss and a chance to go out on a date with Mal at whichever event they come to. No homo. But seriously though, as a Protoss, we have Trap. Apocalypse for Terran and Solar for the swarm. They will be fighting as the opponent’s race in the best of 3 series. There will be the awkward tri-casting with the players through Skype. There will be some BM’s. There will be some cheese (no pun intended because the prize is pizza lol). And of all, there will be some below par quality games to hinder their reputations. Get ready for some yuk’s and awe’s. Be prepared to ask some questionnaires. Come to twitch.tv/axeltoss. Have your Tuesday night entertainment covered by us. (#DATRHYME)"
Anyway I think that's all I would like to say, hope to see you there!
