Personally my favorite part was when d.lee in the middle of a tense part in the game just goes "Sorry, I forgot your name...."
"Urrr... my names jessie"
then jessie was silent for a good 2 minutes, hahaha

I think it is great he could have this experience. He has a great story to tell. Obviously he is not a professional nor is he trying to be.

That being said, it was a SEMI FINALS. Seriously GOM, if you are going to be Blizzard's chosen ones, you need to do a better job than that.

I wholeheartedly agree, It's very nice they went out and did something like that but it was the semi-finals after all and they should be more professional but still it's free to watch.

I thought he was okay. He's not nearly as bad as some of tasteless's old co-casters from old WCG events. There were ysome casters worse than DJWheat.(No offence to wheat, he just doesnt know anything about starcraft)

This guy claims to play zerg, but later wonders if the players are trying to make their opponent's hatcheries more difficult to select. I ROFLed

I only saw the starting part, the fail at casting the replay with the names is seriously hillarious. His monotone fail voice was great too

. Seriously where did they pick him up from? Does anyone know this guy?

Check the GOM semi final thread if you don't know what is happening. Basically because Tasteless is casting the Heritage, they picked some random guy to commentate with SDM. Reactions to that move are mixed.

After the jaedong vs effort replays in which both of them switched the players twice, and during the second game where they got them mixed up literally right up until the end of the game, I thought it was alright.

He did well given the situation he was thrown into.

hmm that's pretty elitist.
I didn't think he was too bad. It takes some balls to step up and commentate games on a live stream which is being watched live by I don't know how many thousand people.

He is no tasteless, but he did good. Ofc he is far from perfect, but some of his comments made me smile and he knows a lot about Starcraft.

knows a lot about starcraft?
when you make a comment like 'effort isn't really out there' (or whatever it was), you don't know starcraft progaming.
