Stunning faces and voices: Fall Groups talents announced
The player break seems to have simultaneously just started and to have gone on for far too long; fortunately, the wait is almost over.
Fall Groups begins in just over a week - starting on the 13th - with some of the greatest teams in the world converging on Copenhagen to compete for a spot at Fall Finals.
The teams you will all know and love, but we'd like to introduce the talent who will tell you the stories and guide you through the action.
Your wonderful crew
Your desk host will be the effortlessly charismatic Freya Spiers, who will be tasked with reining in the mad geniuses - Pimp and Maniac - on the desk.
They will be given a helping hand by the weatherman Mahone, the all-seeing eye who can teach both rookies and pros a lesson alike.
The always-suave James Banks will be conducting interviews and digging a layer deeper into the stories of the event for all of us. That leaves us with our wonderful casting team; the story-tellers and the artists.
The legendary Anders and HenryG will grace your ears with their dulcet tones and depth of knowledge. The two spent years casting with other partners, but now have joined forces to create a casting superteam.
Their partners in crime will be the endlessly impressive Scrawny and launders, fresh off the back of their incredible Major Final cast. The duo have become synonomous with BLAST, and a huge part of making our events so special for all of us, and hopefully, all of you.
Stephanie LindgrenWe couldn't be happier to see the return of all of these familiar faces, and we can't wait for Counter-Strike to come back.
