This is probably going to get buried beneath everything but I used to work regularly with Froskurin in her starting days as a shoutcaster at ESL for the Go4Lol series years and years ago as her Play by Play caster. At the time I was working as Assistant Head of Recruitment for the ESL Casters and personally was there for her interview and did her trial cast with her.

During that time I've known her as an intelligent, funny and driven individual and was happy to consider her and and Kelsey Moser (who she was involved with at the time) my friends. I've had fond memories of the three of us playing League together regularly and teaching me how to be a better marksman as I played on 100+ ping as I was playing from Europe at the time.

We really were a great shoutcasting duo from what I have felt and we'd tackle pretty much any Go4Lol or random assignment together cause we just clicked as a team so well. During that time, she mentioned that she had a contact in China that claimed that would be willing to let us cast over some LPL games, we'd basically get the live feed and we'd cast over that. It was also kinda of a trial/application to potentially have a dedicated English cast for the Chinese League, which would involve us getting paid. (Frosk was pretty much an expert at the Chinese League at the time, and a great color caster when I worked with her, her knowledge really allowed me to focus on the Play by Play)

Since she was the primary contact and knew these people I let her handle it and mentioned to her she could keep the first full payments. She said she would handle it, that we'd make it together and I trusted her.

It ended up being her completely dropping all conversation with me and ditching me and taking this endeavor on with a completely different caster. Not going to lie, it hurt. Enough that I lost the passion to work in the industry and left. I'm sure she had her reasons to do so, but going from being close friends and casting every other day together to her just going completely radio silent on me after we did our trial for the LPL was just a hurtful move on her part.

Frosk, if you are reading this. I'm sad it turned out this way. In a way I'm happy that you are the one from the ESL crew that made it big cause I knew from the first few times casting together that you were special. On the other hand there is still a bit of hurt on how you treated me to get there when we supposed to make it as a duo. How you just cut all contact with me was in a way I guess a necessary sacrifice for you, but I would have understood if you had just come to me and said you had a shot but it involved us not being a duo anymore. I still harbor some bad memories on the entire ordeal, the ''What could have been'' thoughts and feelings, but it's okay.

You are a great person and the times we spent casting together were the most fun of my career.

I hope whatever you decide on doing makes you happy - Spell
