The three of them work so well together and the commentary was easily some of the highest quality commentary around. oh yeah ill agree to that tasteless on camera was excellent too, much better than his commentary IMO | ||

By no means am I saying these guys aren't good at what they do. It just felt that compared to the GSL, Gom.tv, Artosis TV and other venues where I see these folks, they were explaining a lot of fundamental things. Just picking some examples, the explanation that factories can be used to scout since they float and arent part of some builds. Also saying mules are short lived but better miners. There just seemed like something was off. Also hearing full building names that they all typically shorten in their others casts. There was no "cyber core, raxx or CC." It was "cybernetics core, barracks and command center." Maybe blizz wanted them to tone down the analysis and shorthand. Not hating. Just curious if anyone else noticed. To me that was one of the things that kept fueling in to all the details that i felt was so proffesionaly handled. There are more things of importence then just doing as an impressive showcase to what they know, and what is going on in the match. When they are casting an event, considering this was blizzcon that is an event where theese sort of things might be aspecialy true. I.e when there are fans or just targeted audiences, among completly different genres and medias that to SC. Who can be possible consumers or new people taking interest in E-sport to name a few. There is a challenge to have the stamina for mentaining different levels of quality in what you are actualy saying, what you realy want to say, and what things you rather not repeat yourself with, and most importently what the people listening will think you are saying. and so on and so on(UKnoWhaImSayin?  )And if we ever feel like we are targets of preaching to the choir. I still belive they are doing a great job of handling just that with as an small price tag to pay for it as possible. Just like some who will read my coment, will feel; well that kinda goes without saying. That wasn't how you felt it. And that is not an matter of stupidnes. And just like they all already know, and said many times before. Factories can be used to lift up and scout with. They alsow know that i.e "these vikings are overruning the collosi, mayby HT's would be a good transition" And it is not dumbing down it is just adepting for the sake of more things than personal presentation and up'ing the already understanding e-sport-belivers entertainment. Bah sry for beeing ssuch a wanabe-convolutative ramblingRambler Anyways. Great to see many that highly enjoyd the casts. And tx for some nice stuff said in response to my first post here =) Nn's | ||

I'd also like to thank Tastosis9/Daystosis/what have you. They did an amazing job casting the tournament and acted as wonderful ambassadors for the game to the thousands of Blizzcon attendees who weren't familiar with how interesting this game can be. | ||

Blizzcon had a broader audience than the typical tournament cast. It's an excellent opportunity to pick up more e-sports fans, so might as well avoid alienating them by using 'lingo'. The 'elite' fans should still be able to tolerate slightly less sophisticated casting. | ||

They kept the "Baby's first RTS" stuff in the early game where they would usually talk random crap anyway, since nothing is going on. Every now and then they'd clarify a term they were using but they were still doing great commentary throughout. | ||
