What a world we live in where an entirely separate broadcast of an esports major can match the official on-site event in terms of its talent line-up.

Richard Lewis, British esports journalist and personality and Dexerto editor-at-large, has announced the talent line-up for his next No Majors Club (NMC).

NMC was set up to give Counter-Strike esports fans an alternative to the official majors broadcasts – it usually features hosts, casters and analysts who aren’t currently working at other events.

And this time, the talent line-up is pretty damn impressive. As are the captions.

The No Majors Club broadcast of the PGL Antwerp Major, which runs from May 9th to 22nd, features the likes of Anders, Moses, Semmler, Montecristo and more.

British talent includes the likes of Thorin, Jacky, Pansy and Redeye, whose addition is significant given he has not featured on an esports broadcast for some time.

Redeye, aka Paul Chaloner, is an experienced esports host that’s been around since the early days of the industry, and is known for his work on broadcasts in Dota 2 and other titles. It’s his first time doing something like this in almost two years, after Redeye announced he was quitting esports following claims made by fellow host James Banks.

While it’s no guarantee Paul will definitely ‘be back’ in esports, he has been more active on socials in recent weeks, and has been running a few casual Twitch streams. His content is pretty F1/sports-focused, though he has also been reviewing caster showreels, offering advice and highlighting upcoming talent on Twitter.

PGL’s official Antwerp Major broadcast talent line-up was recently announced, and it features the likes of Frankie Ward, Sjokz and more.

Richard Lewis has also run the ‘Bot Major’ in the past, a light-hearted tournament featuring bots when there were no majors taking place.

Today Richard has also been talking about ESIC issuing charges resulting from its historical spectator bug investigation, both on stream and on Twitter.
