CSN's "The Rundown" cast by Rance Costa

In my opinion, Cyber Sports Network (CSN) does a lot to support Esports, they started following me on Twitter right away, before any other professional Esport person or organization did, I was know by some serious SC2 people before that, but they weren't people that did Esports for a living.

That little recognition by CSN really helped me get recognized faster than I otherwise would have.  I know they have helped others in Esports, in part that is what this Event seems to be about, Rance is a veteran Caster, he worked with djWheat for years in the past.

I don't know the details, but I suspect that like djWheat has had to do in the past, Rance had to make some hard choices about devoting his time to Esports, or working a "real job" [I hate that term!] to make a living.  Now he has an opportunity to Cast again, but like someone who switched from C&C or BW to SC2, it might take a little time for him to adjust to a new game.

So go watch The Rundown:



When:  Wed 12/14/11 8:00pm EST

The Cyber Sports Network announces the return of Rance Costa to esports. Rance has been involved in esports for almost 8 years and was DJWheats partner in crime back in the day while at the Global Gaming League. Wheat and Rance were the production and personalities behind the highly successful, Epileptic Gaming Series on GGL TV.


To welcome Rance and his crazy antics back to esports, CSN has created an 8 player invite tournament. Over twenty (20) invites have been sent out and the first 8 players that confirm a spot in the tournament will receive one. The tournament is not about money, as the prize to the winner is a measly $100.. this tournament is about supporting those that wish to make a difference in the SC2/esports scene and highlighting players and caster that may not have a 'big name' .... YET!


Each week's winner, along with the runner up will receive an automatic invite back to the next cup.


Last week's winner was viOLet with a 3-1 win over Attero.


More details on confirmed players will be announced shortly.
