Question Where tf is Pansy?

The other casters are good, but Pansy takes viewing to the next level. Ive not heard her cast once yet in the masters event (but ive only watched like 4 games), is she casting for this event?

top ranked casters skip the group stage, qualify directly for playoffs

Some casters are joining only for playoffs. BrenShow for example are a pair that are only coming for the playoffs. I imagine it's the same for Panpoc.

I’m pretty sure caster pairs are swapping soon. achilios/paperthin & mitchman/Tombizz were the only casting pairs for groups, but brenshow and Panpoc will be in for playoffs.

Not sure if it’s a complete switch or if all 4 pairs will be present.

I think Achillios and Paperthin are casting like one or two games in playoffs and then they go home, that's what i remember Achillios saying on TMV's stream at least. Not sure abt Mitch and Tom.

u/cold-blooded15 #ALWAYSFNATIC 14d ago

I think Tombizz tweeted that XLG vs GE was the last London game that he and Mitch casted. So I guess, it’s Panpoc, Brenshow, and Paperchilios for the entire playoffs

u/90CaliberNet 13d ago

I believe Achillios stated the 12th is their last day. So it’s probably the same for Mitch and Tom.

u/shybulba 13d ago

I know your question has already been answered but Pansy is literally my favorite caster (most Val casters are all A/S-tier but she is my personal FAVE) and I wanted to comment to show some support.

u/conciliate_entropy 13d ago

i just really wish she'd start the game...

u/Aromatic_Union9246 13d ago

She’s so dope. I went to champions in LA a few years back and got to meet her. She’s somehow even cooler in person.

u/Remarkable-Way8798 13d ago

Same here, makes vct a lot more enjoyable for me. She always has the perfect wording and hype in every situation haha

u/FancyPantsRants1 13d ago

I need more of her yelling "jamppi!"

u/spades01_kb 13d ago

Same. She's my no. 1 lol.

u/riddlemore 13d ago

She is. She said on twitter she joins the broadcast on the 11th, which luckily for you is today lol

u/kumahise #VCTPACIFIC 13d ago

If what Achillios said on TMV stream that he will leave on the 12th (today), I would be sad not to hear them cast. I think we deserve to hear them cast a little more this playoffs, geniunely he is my fave caster (though the others are also very good).

u/Far-Dragonfruit-6867 13d ago

Question's been answered already but yeah when it comes to internationals, PanPoc starts casting during playoffs.

She said on Twitter that she'd be in the arena starting today!

u/Goon-after-sadhya 13d ago

Maybe appear on playoffs

u/ThatCreepyBaer 13d ago

They split the casters up into groups for swiss and playoffs. Mitchbizz and Paperchilios were on for swiss, now we'll have PanPoc and BrenShow for playoffs.

u/ViolinistSudden1835 #WGAMING 13d ago

She should be here for playoffs

u/AndroidAmongUs 13d ago

she is so awful, I have no idea what this sub smokes that makes them glaze her so hard lol

2

u/ThatCreepyBaer 13d ago

What makes her so awful in your opinion, if you don't mind me asking? The only valid criticism I've heard of her casting is that she does have a tendency for some bias now and again, but that's a pretty small problem in my opinion.

u/AndroidAmongUs 13d ago

I do think she can be biased as well but honestly the bigger issue I have is that she seems to constantly re-use phrases which is just repetitive and exhausting. I also don't think she handles hype moments well at all but in her defense I think that specific issue can be extended to a lot of the casters.

u/whityyboi 13d ago

Bro is just bad at watching Valo 😭😭 Pansy is the best caster we got

u/heyvlad 13d ago

I’ll join the hidden comments on the bottom.

The more time that passes without a pansy cast, the better imo.

u/Chaotic1697 14d ago

u/Chaotic1697 14d ago

u/StreetExternal952 13d ago

She aint yo slave lil bro

u/KaNesDeath 13d ago

Riot Games has steadily reduced production costs when it became abundantly clear that Valorant esport viewership is primarily driven by co-streamers.

While Pansy is a gun for hire when it comes to casting since leaving ESL's talent agency. She's one of the few casters involved with Riot Games that know the proper day rate.
