BLAST has announced the broadcast team for the Rivals Season 2 tournament. The tournament will be played from November 11 to 15 at Chek Lap Kok in Hong Kong.

The ten-person lineup includes Natalie "NatTea" Mahoney as desk host and interviewer. This will be Mahoney's fourth BLAST event, following Open Rotterdam, Bounty Summer and Open Porto. James "BanKs" Banks will join her at the desk. Alex "Mauisnake" Ellenberg and Donald "voo" Parkhurst will be the tournament's two resident analysts at the desk.

Two different pairs will work the commentary teams. Mohan "launders" Govindasamy and Conner "Scrawny" Girvan, BLAST's iconic duo, will form one team, while Daniel "ddk" Kapadia and James "BARDOLPH" Bardolph will form the other.

Rivals Season 2 will take place before the Singapore Major as the final tournament on the calendar. Four of the top five teams in the global VRS rankings will take part. Falcons, FUT, G2 and Legacy will also compete.
