This isn’t me. This is Sir David Attenborough. He’s among my favourite people. He holds 29 degrees (more than anyone else) and is a constant casting inspiration.
I won’t intimate that I’m of the same calibre as analysts like Artosis and Day[9], nor have I the sheer tenacity that has seen casters like Husky and LittleMike(Starcraft?) succeed so well in their time learning the game. I don’t have Chill’s impressive sense for just what’s about to happen, nor do I have Milkis’ seamless not-quite-caster EN>KR/KR>EN/EN>EN skills. I am an exceedingly simple man. I don’t have Tasteless’ patented Tom-Waits-of-the-esports-scene gravelpit of a voice, nor do I have Klazart’s incredible six-hundred-words-a-minute Gatling gun of a voice. I am no NuketheStars, no Cholera, no SC2GGRise, even. I lack Wolf’s surfer vibe, and Moletrap’s genuine fervour.
I suppose, now that I think about it, I don’t have an awful lot to offer. I first tried to cast an entire game, but found that I had lost my voice around the ten-minute mark. I understand that it will take training and dedication (at least the minimum eight hours per day that seasoned Korean casters put in) if I want to make it to the top, but sadly it seems that my poor throat wasn’t built for such rigours.
You might have to turn your sound up a little, or put on some headphones. Here is a short cast I’ve thrown together from a video of Col.Minigun:
Please watch it right to the end, I’d really appreciate it.
Now, you may have noticed that the above isn’t, strictly speaking my voice (in a purely possessive sense). As I said earlier, I lost my voice during my first attempt to cast, so I’ve crudely sellotaped magnetic tapes from old Sir David Attenborough shows together in an effort to construct something meaningful.
I hope to be good enough to be sent to MLG as a backup caster next time. Of course, my no-voice issues mean that this is never going to be easy. I’ll need an extensive soundboard and a mixing desk, but I’m about 90% sure that I could do this on the fly, especially if anyone can send me some kind of complete Attenborough back catalogue that I could use to construct a kind of David Attenborough dictionary.
Please tell me how I can improve!
Thanks,
Sir David[9] Attenborough
