This is a combo event for us. The actual matchcasting will be done in our studio via hltv's and we will have a crew on-site filming and uploading content as well. We might even tie in a reporter at the event to our stream from the studio.

Not crazy...hehehe...the CES show is dated in the year it actually happened and the KODE5 event is dated based on the fact it started some nine months ago with qualifiers in 2007 so its the Final for that year.

HLTV, scorebots, GameSense, galleries, interviews, etc are all in the coverage plan as always. On-site will be Mark and Jonas, so it should be some great coverage from the event, as well as on our studio broadcast stream with Alex, Trevor, and the studio crew. ;)
