It's why JP McDaniel and Day9 do well together, complementary. | ||

The one thing about English RTS announcing I've noticed so far is that I've yet to hear a duo that has really GREAT chemistry, although most duos have perfectly okay chemistry. That's probably because chemistry comes with time, and there are few commentating duos in E-sports that have been allowed to get to know each other for years. Also, it is difficult to build chemistry online as most duos need to do. | ||

Maybe add Tasteless too, then you've got the Strategic Analysis commentator, the awesome Support commentator and the Excitement/Color commentator Chill + Day9 is probably the best english commentary duo. I'm don't think 3 casters is better than 2 though. Too many cooks, etc. | ||

Sean is in his total comfort zone when doing his daily videos in his own room being fully rested and composed. He can for example stop a second and have a sip of water to think through what he is going to say next, which is a luxury you dont get at a tournament. Now he is at the venue at the other side of the world with people buzzing him all day, and it is just going to be noticeable that he is under a certain amount of stress. Other than that, have Apollo and Day9 ever casted together before? Working together is also a thing that comes with practise. | ||

Day9 is just amazing at constantly keeping cool and professional and along with that come amazing game analysis. Would have loved to se an Artosis by Day9's side (or chill or his bro ofc - but let's keep it realistic^^), but it is what it is, and imo they're doing so much better than most of the stuff out there. While Apollo would be horrible as a solo commentator, having someone like day9 by his side also makes his amazing charisma shine through, which makes it live up to my expectations. | ||

Then again, I'm inclined to take Day9's side because he does awesome dailies and maybe he's the one talking over Appolo. Casters really need to figure out who is calling the play by play and who is doing colour and stick to their roles. | ||

There a few casters on iccup and youtube (surprising?) who I think have better game knowledge and flow than apollo. | ||
