Evil Geniuses StarCraft 2 Master's Cup Finals Commentated by Winner ROOT.qxc Part 1

Posted January 3, 2011 - By Leah Jackson

Last year (that's weird to say!) we partnered up with professional gaming team Evil Geniuses to stream their StarCraft 2 Master's Cup. All of the matches were entertaining to say the least, but in the end there could only be one winner, and that was Kevin "ROOT.qxc" Riley. We got the chance to talk to Kevin earlier last week. This week, he and Nerdstomper have been kind enough to supply us with some in-depth analysis of his finals games versus NOVA.stalife.

This video features game one of four on Xel'Naga Caverns. Make sure to check back soon for the other three games, and let us know what you think of this type of e-Sports coverage. Any interest in GSL coverage?

LOL! Is this some kind of joke?

Hell YES! That would be so incredible.

Question is, do you want to be the first western TV channel to take e-sports seriously? Do you want to be partly responsible for serious e-sports being big outside Korea?

Do it! Pretty please, with sugar on top :D

I don't think this would be interesting to anyone except SCnerds and people like me with WAY too much free time just looking to burn some minutes.

yeah its not the same as husky or hd cast. Even Psy for that matter but this just might have been his first cast...but i think he did okay by explaining what was going on and what his thought process was at the time of the game.

It's great seeing the game from his perspective. But, hate to say, QXC sounds very boring and it may turn off some new comers. Plugging some of Artosis's stuff at http://www.youtube.com/user/Ar tosisTV#p/u/0/z3ytJ5DJ1Ss would be great. His knowledge and level of excitement is great for both those familiar and new to the scene.
