Hydra-Hydra-Ghost dies to baneling, baneling thor very badly indeed. Voidray, Carrier, Archon is surprisingly viable (at least against stalker, archon, queen) if all three in your team cannon rush and then fill the map with cannons to defend. Ling, Muta, BC provided so much fun that I might try it as a "legitimate" 3v3 build. And Infestors are a pain to micro against reapers... Looking forward to the tournament wackiness! | ||

I cordially dislike your casting style and have thus far avoided watching your stream and your contributions during live events. For this I will make an exception. A brilliant idea and a great lineup. Posting to eagerly watch for a time/date. Also will the games be posted on youtube for us archive-style viewers? | ||

Talk about backhanded compliments. XD | ||

Lighten up, do you denounce Funday Monday because it isn't serious enough for you? Remember CholeraSC's man-crush on Reach? Was that hard yo take seriously as well? <3 TB, I think this is a brilliant idea. | ||

It's hard to imagine you're silly enough to think one man's choice of attire can finger quote, affect the world's take on eSports. Hence I will do the sensible thing and assume that you're just jealous of his awesome hat. | ||

Personally I'm not a fan of TB because I feel like his casting style has a great deal of contrived excitement. He doesn't have the knowledge to talk about metagame or possible outcomes for the players during breaks in the action, so instead he tries to make those breaks exciting. + Show Spoiler + relax, the terran is just building his first barracks You may call it a backhanded compliment, but I think TB should be pleased that he's had such an awesome idea for an event that he'd get outright anti-fans like me interested in listening to him cast. | ||

As you can see, popular commentators NEVER wear anything silly ![[image loading]](http://raisedonattitude.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Jerry-the-dick-lawler.jpg) Oh | ||

People still wear those kinds of hats, you know, in the south of the USA. Not only that, but pro-wrestling isn't really something people take seriously, since it's a soap opera for men. Unless you think esports is a soap opera for men... | ||

Come now, there's no reason for hostility here. Lots of people like or dislike certain casters for a variety of reasons, but it's no reason for those casters to change the way they conduct themselves. Regardless of whether they're "hurting or helping 'e-sports'" casters can act as they please so long as they get hired to do their job. That said, you're still entitled to dislike their style. Just don't go telling him to be different just because you don't like how he does things. | ||

It's a computer game about aliens, lasers and psychic mutes. Sorry, but if America can wear hats from it's past, I can wear hats from mine. That shit looks equally "silly". Unless you think esports is a soap opera for men... Considering the amount of drama people like you seem to enjoy causing around it I'm surprised you don't believe so. | ||

Just wanted to say that the hat does definitely not look silly. I just fits to your personality and voice. If Day9 wore that hat, yes, maybe. On TotalBisuit? No, not in the slightest. | ||

Remember CholeraSC's man-crush on Reach? Lets be honest, who didnt have a man crush on Reach? Also Cholera FTW, he and Diggity got me into SC:BW way back in '07. I think it is so flippin' cool that MoleTrap us commenting for the GSL now. Also, is there any further word on when this amazing tourney is going to take place? | ||

![[image loading]](http://doncherryjacketwatch.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/doncherryhnic20080518.jpg) Some sports commentators where silly things. And I think hockey is taken a bit more seriously then pro-wrestling. Edit: found a better sized picture | ||
