Semmler for OWL

Famous CSGO caster, Semmler, supposedly is in the midst of a deal with Blizzard to cast OWL. However, he would be moving over by himself, which means he'll need a casting partner.
I hope his partner is ZP- I'm worried that ZP currently isn't a caster for OWL and I feel like it won't be the same without him. Him and Semmler could make a fantastic duo.

ZP confirmed he wasn't in OWL in the reddit thread of this.

Wait wtf ZP isn't in OWL? He's by far best caster out of all the casters so far imo. He MADE the monthly melees what they were from his casting with Hex. How could he possibly not be in it?

He casted overwatch before with Anders over a year ago, which wasn't a succes.
I hope he improved his overwatch casting, which I only assume he would.

Snubbing a day 1 iconic caster in ZP is a huge :candle: .. actually makes me really sad

At least make him an analyst along with Hex.

Maybe they'll bring in Jkap to pair alongside Semmler?

Looking at jkaps tweets it sounds like no OWL for him either, hopefully ZP dominates in contenders casting

Makes sense, snub two guys casting OW from the very beginning for a guy who not even people that followed CS:GO enjoyed, this guy was probably the most hated caster in CS from what I've read and is a fucking nightmare to listen to yet Blizzard think he's better over ZP, Hex and Kaplan?

i know i will get alot of hate for this but i just have to get it out.

they hire another caster that has absolute 0 knowledge of the game and in the meanwhile they dont sign the caster with the biggest knowledge of the game :(

they ruined it so much with the casting team not a single expert/analysts in the lineup

dont get me wrong i love all this casters they know how to hype a crowd but they lack to give imput on important things during the game like zp,reinforce or even ster did which i think could be really important for new viewers of this game.

i think they should make it like csgo and all other esport games where u always pair 1 caster and 1 expert / semi-former pro

Ah, was expecting some hot chick presenting the whole shit who was a former pornstar, you killed my dreams :P

Is a baffling decision to be fair I've known about Semmler for years when he was doing dota or some shit with the 2gd studio team and even then nobody liked him, I honestly don't think you could find a more hated caster in e-sports over the years yet the guy knows how to get a gig that's for sure.

pretty sure they still need casters to make Contenders watchable and such.
but if i was zp i would just point blank boycott this company but will not happen cuz its his job and he sure enjoys it.
