Fnatic Fantastique
Joe Wong joins Rob and Andrew to dissect the ESL ESEA Finals and discuss the greatness of Fnatic's 2015 Counter-Strike season. Then Joe explains Valve's odd new patch for Counter-Strike, and Rob is curious about the direction NA LCS is headed next year as it becomes the Ex-Fnatic Show.

CSGO, League of Legends

Good podcast. Crazy that the CS GO changes have already been reverted. Sort of untimely of Valve to be so quick on patching for once http://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2015/12/13394/

 

In other news, free source quality GlobalStarcraftLeague preseason has been awesome. Highlights so far would probably be TY v Hero (@1:47) and Sorry V Symbol(@2:36) http://www.twitch.tv/gsl/v/30056863 

 

Oh, and also Forte v True shows some cool builds(2:23)http://www.twitch.tv/gsl/v/30221674  First game is a Taeja-esque TvZ with CC first into hellion/banshee map control and pressure. Which turns into a cool slow push positional Ghost liberator versus corrupter/roach/ultra-festor lategame. Second game goes about as different as is possible with a macro proxy two rax reaper into a hellbat cloak banshee allin. This series is LoTV in a nutshell.

Thanks for the links, Jolly! Rob and I had a talk about whether we should be covering the pre-season, but ultimately decided against it. We have to be really careful to avoid our compulsion to just sit on the mic and talk about StarCraft for the whole 30-45 minutes. XD

I think my favourite "e-sports" event this year was the Archon Team League championship. To see such a community-driven event get so successful was super cool to see.
