Although the crowd-favorite organization, Team Soul, was set to join the event and was en route to the location, a sudden health issue with Goblin (one of the main assaulters of the team) prompted the team management to withdraw their name yesterday. Team Insane took the vacant spot.
With all 16 teams in great form, it is to be seen which team outplays the others to emerge as the Champions of the All Stars Invitational event.
Casters
Through an Instagram post on their official handle, Nodwin Gaming unveiled the casters of the LAN event. Their voice will help the audience gain insights about matches, players, and stats.
Based on the post, Nodwin has acquired the services of popular casters like Ocean Sharma, Ketan "K18" Patel, and Varun "ISuperJonny" John (for Hindi commentary). The dynamic trio has had a lot of experience as they have cast multiple PUBG Mobile and Battlegrounds Mobile India tournaments in the past.
The experienced duo of Lakshya "Bloter Gaming" Singh and Neeraj "Nekrouu" Sangle will take over the charge of English commentary. Furthermore, the craze for the game in the southern provinces of the country has prompted the organizers to select Tamil casters as well. They are Prabhakaran "Midfail" and Vishnu "Randy" Priyan.
