The ten-person lineup includes desk host/interviewer Natalie "NatTea" Mahoney, who returns for her fourth BLAST event after working at Open Rotterdam, Bounty Summer, and Open Porto.
She and James "BanKs" Banks , the other desk host, will be joined on the desk by Alex "Mauisnake" Ellenberg and Donald "voo" Parkhurst , the two resident analysts.
Mohan "launders" Govindasamy and Conner "Scrawny" Girvan , BLAST's iconic pairing, will form one commentary duo, with Daniel "ddk" Kapadia and James "BARDOLPH" Bardolph making up the other. BLAST Rivals Season 2 will be the final stop on the calendar before the Singapore Major.
The tournament will feature four of the current top-five teams in the global VRS, in addition to Falcons , FUT , G2 and Legacy .
Opinion
Fictional bylines. Each take uses a line above and adds no facts.
Falcons Esports still has to answer for this: "The ten-person lineup includes desk host/interviewer Natalie "NatTea" Mahoney, who returns for her fourth BLAST event after working at Open Rotterdam, Bounty Summer, and Open Po…" That is the soft spot on the card. Nothing else in these lines closes it.

G2 Esports can stand on this line: "The ten-person lineup includes desk host/interviewer Natalie "NatTea" Mahoney, who returns for her fourth BLAST event after working at Open Rotterdam, Bounty Summer, and Open Po…" It is already on the card, so the case does not need a streak or a roster rumor.
