To me he was the worst part of the giga.de stream :<

the endless looping of that blizzard teaser was easily the worst part of the stream. that freaking dramatic hype music, has been playing over and over in my head for the whole of today.

that godfather fella from mob gaming (america fuck yeah guy who's a closet gangsta rapper) is a close second, followed by that terrible stand up comedian during the interlude.

Haha when that mob gaming guy walked on stage I thought it was elky for a second His America crap was pretty annoying but overall I think he was a fun guy that really liked what he was doing, and for me, stage presence goes a long way.
The comedian was horrible. You just can't bash WoW nerds when your audience consists of them and he was constantly laughing about his own jokes =(

And yes whoever thought up that the interlude had to be 1 minute needs to get their ass fired.

Even despite the language issue I think he is one of the better shoutcasters out there. He can also be serious when he wants.


no, best german caster is warnix(he also casts often in english)

How? He obviously knows the game he commentates better, unlike Wacksteven who was totally clueless, I'm sure he just read the unit names on his screen and yelled random things, sometimes including "micro" in his sentences where units moved around while they could attack.
Complete the cycle!

I can't understand why GIGA would send TheKoenna to an event like Blizzcon. Stoned is just sooo much better than him and has a good grasp of both bw (used to be a decent player) and wc3 (german national team leader for quite some time) and he's entertaining and informative. I don't know how good his english is, but it certainly can't be worse than the Hoff's.

Hardly.

WackSteven was a Warcraft 3 caster, you only saw him when he casted Starcraft.

Unlike this asian guy from Germany, WackSteven actually has skills when it comes to casting, just not Starcraft.
<hr>
As for the topic at hand, I don't like this guys casting, luckily he won't be doing any Starcraft lans, at least ones I'd watch.
I was over at WCReplays, and a lot of WC3 players don't even like him, go figure.
If anyone orders any merlot Im leaving. I am NOT drinking any fucking merlot.

I'd add that Wacksteven's style of talking and commentating (information aside, b/c I don't know his war3 knowledge) was actually very good, and he's very confident with the mic.
