I just don't like the OGN dudes in general--specifically the fat dude. Much like notorius BIG, you can tell he's a lardass by the sound of his voice. It annoys me to no end. Also, all three of them are pretty old (my guess is mid-late 30s), and seeing three ahjusshis commentating over a game seems sad and pathetic IMO.

I prefer the MBC team because of their unbridled enthusiasm that is characteristic of their youth, relatively speaking. Consequently, they make the OGN guys look like old fogies.

I got no problem with any of them as I can't understand them. But from a total sound perspective I'd have to say it's the woman from OGN. That being said, I actually prefer OGN's commentators (the males ones at least ^^) over the MBC guys. They just sound more "official" and make the games feel like a real sporting event

the woman that commentates on OGN is the worst by far.

the 3 OGN guys are all famous and have a lot of fans. maybe if you aren't korean you wouldn't like them, but they are all very humorous and have distinct personalities. also, they have great chemistry since they've been working together for a long time now.

MBC guys are great, too.

I personally find the games with the OGN commentators the ones that catch my attention more. They will definitely rile you up at the perfect moments.

The center caster in MSL is my favorite by far "RIBORIBORIBORIBO" "CHACHACHACHACHACHA".
Oops Spring - Lee Hyun Ju who casts GOM is nice

And I kinda agree with LosingID8, but its only because her voice is kinda high pitched and annoying, Ive heard shes really good, has great knowledge and is super friendly - she was @ WCG 07 grand finals.

That picture is possibly the best thing i've ever seen. MBC >>> OGN in terms of commentating. Clearly.

as for korean commentators, i dunno since i can't really understand them. They don't sound annoying.

It's so hilariously true.

I definitely like the MBC guys more than the OGN one. The female commentator's voice is pretty shrill, and I'm can't remember her ever screaming plaguuuuuu off the top of my head. The last time I remember the OGN guys going pretty nuts was the GGPlay vs Iris final...

I actually like the casters for Dungeon & Fighter way more than I like the MBC or OGN SC commentators. Two of them are currently also players in the 4th league (which finished last night.) and they're always doing crazy stuff like having chicken foot fights during broadcasts and playing rock, paper, scissors with the fans for prizes (they go mental when they lose!)

I prefer OGN over MBC for SC casting however - mainly because of the guy who sits in the centre (I totally forgot his name) who always gets so passionate (plus Themarine.) It's great to see Yooi and Kangmin at MBC though.

From what I have heard from my cousin, there's an commentator who has no idea (well I don't mean a complete noob) what's he's talking about. There was a time when he commentated and the game went EXACTLY as he said, so the other commentators were like WOWOWOWO WHHAAAT?
Stuck.

Kim Tae Hyung aka Kim Carrier (for his love for protoss players)
and
Um Jae Kyung aka God of Feasts

Its a pity you guys can't understand Korean because these 2 OGN commentators are one of the funniest people ever. Kim Tae Hyung aka Kim Carrier makes predictions every OSL, and every OSL he chooses as the victor of this OSL, THEY ALWAYS LOSE. Oddly enough, his favorite players are (Z)YellOw and (P)Stork. Um Jae Kyung aka God of Feasts just makes jokes and stuff. Also his predictions are usually correct.

These 2 even have a show together with (T)TheMarine, very funny show

Maybe it's the 2nd caster on MBC. He mostly casts the survivor tournament and proleague matches. He once said Arcadia instead of Academy and the commentator with glasses to his left corrected him and said "Academy..yeee mapi Arcadia neh ?" Then some awkward silence and finally "neh! academy!" from the caster, then laughing and they continued like normal

Yeah, I understand the MBC commentators more cuz I can hear the unit and player names, and of course the spells. Haha.

I remember Pantech vs SKT Ace match, NaDa@9 vs GoRush@3 on Python, GoRush goes 9 pool but NaDa deflects it. Then NaDa goes to attack GoRush's nat which is guarded by 1 sunken (I think). The thing was NaDa had handful of marines and no medic. The medic was just traveling from NaDa's main to GoRush's nat, and the commentators were like "Medic! Medic! Medic!"


I also remember a game on Tiamat, Kal vs a terran, and the Arbiter was making it's way to the Terran main, the commentators were like:

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!.....??"
*pause*
*Kal recalls*
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"

1. the woman with that annoying voice (don't remember what she's casting, haven't seen her often so it's neither MSL nor OSL nor Proleague)
2. one of the MSL casters who has a very high and annoying voice too. I think it's the guy on the left. He's rather small, thin and has glasses, looks like a stereotypical geek.

The OSL casters are the best, especially the guy in the center (who also does all the ceremony/introduction/interview stuff for the OSL finals). Great voice/"rhetoric" (if one can say so while not understanding a single word), and conveys a lot of emotion.

The main announcer for OGN, Jeon Yong Jun (aka MC Yong Jun) is so goddamn epic. I remember in one of the finals, he actually lost his voice near the end because he had been yelling all night. He started off announcing King of Fighters(2d arcade fighter) for OGN, alongside a former KOF player, which in my opinion is still the best announcing combo any of the game channels has had for any game (smart commentator who knows the game inside out, and knows all the players personally, and overenthusiastic announcer).

Can't really say I have a least favorite, but I feel like Kim Tae Hyung is pulling so little weight lately, he's pretty much there to continue the in-jokes at OGN -_-

Jung So Lim (the woman who casts for OGN). She's a good progaming caster, but she's not a good Starcraft caster. She should stick to hosting the OGN talk shows.
