Nice solocast for today's team battle, rapid!
You don't need to apologize or even think that your casting skillz aren't or so ... You're doing a great job and we all understand that solo casting is exhausting, considering you're really talking all the time (even between the games) which is just awesome. The entertaining is high! Good job!

In yesterdays cast I noticed that you had started doing this annoying English error where you said "He does move his units." In English you don't need the verb "does" to explain that another verb is happening in a normal sentence.

You can use it, though, to stress the fact that he's using something.
"He shouldn't move his units so he can block the runby. Oh, but he does move his units."

Really nice cast again with Wolf. Like I said on page 1 "It would be glad if we got another league going on where ASL is casted by Tastosis and another one by Wolf and Rapid" and today dream come true!

Yes, which is why I said a normal sentence ; ) I'm not talking about the need to stress something as a reply to a previous statement or a question but just putting it in randomly in sentences. It's crept into how a lot of casters speak and it is very annoying.

I tried to pay attention during the cast and i did (xD) notice a few cases, yes. But lucky me, it doesn't annoy me at all^^

Didn't know what to expect after hearing Tasteless would be off to a friend's wedding. Rapid was great! Really enjoyed the semi-finals casts with him and Artosis.

the game knowledge is just so lacking. color wise, i think he's okay, but there's really a lack of game knowledge and he delivers wrong statements with confidence, which has to be the worst possible thing to hear as a fan.

It took some time to get used to his voice (he has a really high pitched voice), but I've started to enjoy his one liners. I just wish he was more knowledgeable about the game, like that time he said that Charon Boosters were in the armory.
Aldaris was the good guy of Brood War.

Or recently when both rapid (and I think wolf?) said that burrowed drones are not protected from eraser... I mean, I really like rapid and wolf but I have the feeling that their game knowledge has decreased the past few weeks?

Yep. I'm pretty much okay with Rapid overall, but I agree that's painful to listen to. I find Wolf is even worse in that regard. Rapid has picked up some stuff from watching and casting alot with Artosis, but Wolf doesn't seem to know BW well at all...and I've seen him try to disagree with Rapid on something where he (Wolf) is just blatantly wrong. I've literally had to mute him a few times in this moments it's so frustrating to listen to.

I try to check in here every once in a while, and just wanted to say thanks for the feedback and keep it coming! I've definitely learned a lot since I started casting Broodwar again and I'm sure there's a lot that I and everyone else have to learn. Heading out to cast the SSL Classic Playoffs so make sure to watch that @ http://www.e-sports.tv/SSL_LIVE
The faster caster. @RAPiDCasting

Wolf is well known for making wrong statements. Don't know if it's just the general confusion of casting several different games at once, but it's sometimes painful listening to his analysis because he ought to know better by now.

As for Rapid, I love his upbeat banter and demeanor. I think everyone can agree his one weakness is lack of game knowledge, but he's consistently working on it. He's also doing quite a bit of community casting as well, so he's working really hard to improve his knowledge of the game and his ability to commentate on the fly. As long as he gets to stay focused, he can be one of the best casters out there in a year or two.

Enjoyed the cast for ASL semi-finals 2, I think you really did well this time around Rapid. Dropping some knowledge on Artosis with the Iris map analysis haha

Thanks for the translations as well and I'm looking forward to more casts

Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
