The naming the Probes thing is a throwback to another commentator who named one of the Probes in a game and spent a long time following the Probe when nothing happened. It was really annoying and hard to watch.

bunny is really good at what she does. cut her some slack. she has built an own community over at warcraftreplays and is basically their Manifesto7.

She's been shoutcasting for years and people love her. and for a reason.

tasteless was absolutely awesome though. the way he casually explained some mechanics of the game so that even outsiders could grasp what was happening was just fantastic and him getting excited made the games so much more fun to watch. His humour was good for a couple of laughs too.

If he'd comment the regular korean games I'd subscribe to his service for as much as 10$ monthly this instant.

@rS]taCat

i was thinking more about her reavers = sneakyness, and other attempts at cuteness.

@distant_voice
tasteless really came a long way since his first shoutcasts, he sounds like a real professional now. fluent, funny, concise, everything

and no more stuttering!

Tasteless really, really impressed me with his commentating work. I wasn't fortunate enough to see Mani up there on Day 1 but Tasteless blew me away on Day 2. He has a way of explaining complex moves and getting inside players' heads but simplifying the strategy enough that the average viewer can understand.

I'm angry that savior won Game 1 because it seemed like rA had it in the bag after those immensely damaging drops, but it just goes to show how amazing savior is.

yeah what the fuck the progamer's level of skill has really surpassed anything the foreigners can touch. the unit control, choices, everything was fucking insane as hell

did all of the games played get commentated? I unfortunately didn't get to watch live, but maybe if all of the games were in one place for viewing that'd be great

Bunny did an excellent job for someone who had very little experience to the game (being a BGH noob) and the games themselves seem to have converted a lot of people to seeing the awesomeness that is SC.

This game was sick ! Especially the mid-end part, a lot of actions everywhere, Nal_ra really impressed me with his multitasking way to hande the swarm...

Thanks, that was a sweet game. I liked when Bunny or w/e her name is was like "those sunken colonies that can shoot the air, oh I just clicked on one, it's a spore colony!"

Nal_rA should've switched to ground units earlier

Thanks for the VOD, really great game with great commentary.

There's an error when opening the torrent file on the tracker for the iris vs rA games for me. Are they available anywhere else?

It plays in VLC and WMP, but not Media Player Classic.

You guys need to cut bunny some slack. I watched a lot of games on WaaaghTV with her shoutcasting Wc3 and those are simply amazing. She's funny, informative etc.

You need to take into consideration that she's just a beginner when it comes to starcraft. Also, having her asking very newbie questions is a very good combination. Because Tasteless manages to answer them so good and that's good for everyone in the crowd whos wondering "wtf is going on?"

GJ Tasteless and bunny!
