With IEM Rio Major 2022 set to kick off on Monday, the organizers from ESL has announced the pool of talent that will be set to guide viewers through the event. A total of 24 broadcast members will be on our screens for the tournament duration, a lot of them are familiar faces but there will also be talent members making their Major debuts.
A returning member of the talent pool is Sjokz from Belgium, who is known for her time working in League of Legends. Some might also remember her from her time as a desk host at the PGL Antwerp Major. This time the Belgian will be an interview and sideline host.
Machine also makes his return to the tier-one CS:GO scene after taking a break for ESL Pro League, while Allan Hender makes his Major debut.
