Having said that, some shout-outs and notes: * Big shout out and thank you to lazersnipe. This man has organized the best league in BW at the moment, bar none. It helps that the pansy ass foreigner cry babies aren't in it. Love it man. Keep it up. I am a fan for life. * Thank you to all the casters, organizers, and behind-the-scene people who make everything possible but rarely get any credit. I don't know all of you and don't want to leave anyone out, so I'll just say thank you to all of you. I truly appreciate everything you do and have done and will do. * Big shout out to my coaches. Jealous and Faust. You guys were great coaches (in my opinion) and I have learned a lot from you. You have been very supportive of me and that is not something I take lightly. * Big shout out to my team, t e a m, the best team. You guys are all cool as fuck and I have learned a lot from you and with you. I thoroughly enjoyed playing with you guys and enjoyed our downtime even more. In no particular order, f10eqq, fazek, qikz, xloctis, lmaster, zelderan....hell even tinyreaver and tankgirl, who never showed up. Thank you guys so much. You have definitely given me a lot more than I could ever have given you, even though you might not know it. I appreciate you. * To all the other teams and players in the league: thank you and good luck. Thank you for our games and for showing love and being some cool people; most of you anyway  Good luck to everyone else in the rest of the tour. I am going to be watching and supporting you all as best I can. I am always here if you need someone to smash and boost your ego or want to receive some nonsense advice from a novice  *** Oh and I shouldn't encourage catfishing but big shout out to Faust and Cadenzie. Your weird relationship creeps me the fuck out and turns me on at the same time. You guys give me hope and I hope you keep it going. I'll come to the wedding....as long as it's open bar (don't be cheap; please and thank you) and Faust wears a kilt and there's golf and bagpipes there, too (and anything else that's stereotypical Scottish). On a side note, I don't know how many of you tuned in to the cast I was on but I enjoyed that and hope to do it again in the future. I enjoy offending and cybering....occasionally both. Let your voices be heard and demand more of evilEye; I won't disappoint you....unlike the women in my life. On another side note, I normally just play alone and do whatever. This league has allowed me to meet many cool people and brought me some exposure in knowing a lot of people in the scene. This is priceless to me. I will pay it back by continuing to improve and give back whatever I can to the community....all you gotta do is ask! I promise this is not the last time you will hear/see me. THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! Peace and Love. evilEye out.....bitches! (insert most epic mic drop of all time here) So much awesome in this post, echoing the sentiment! Evileye besting all the players at playing and at writing things up. Also wanted to give a shoutout to all the participants in the league, keep playing BW, keep improving and enjoy the atmosphere! P.S. Sugo's a noob | ||

- i think it's okay to fast forward (2x, 4x) a replay when it becomes blatantly one sided. I like how you keep respect for all the players, but out of respect for the viewer, i think we could watch the end of a failed ling all in a bit faster. - on giving ratings: if one player is playing D/D+ level, I don't think you can regard the other player as anything above C. There is just no opportunity for the better player to show his skill if all he needs to do is hold some all-in end then roll over. How is level A macro different from level C, if all you need is make some speedlots + archons and topple the other over? I can see what you're trying to do with the rating, but I think it's just not possible on single matches. How about you give each player a top (this was great!) and a tip (this could be better)? Overall I do like your casting style, especially for this kind of event. You seem relaxed, good voice, and I like how you give pointers for the audience as they play. | ||

Overall I do like your casting style, especially for this kind of event. You seem relaxed, good voice, and I like how you give pointers for the audience as they play. Thank you for your feedback and compliments, both are greatly appreciated. I do sometimes x2, but I try not to do it often because frankly I feel that time can be spent talking about something more theoretical about why their approach was flawed. If the player is staying in the game, coping, raging, whatever, I want to stay in the game too and try to understand what we just saw; even if I went into detail about most things in the match, I am certain that I am missing a lot of things about that particular match in particular and of course many other things about the game in general that I could talk about. When I fast forward, even if a player is dead in the water, they can still do something good that can be complimented or foolish that should be added to the list of failures, IMO. As we are now in the play-offs/finals, I find it even more difficult to justify speeding up the games, but I will definitely keep this point in mind. As for the ratings, I see your point there as well, and I did mention that as well in one of the broadcasts I think. However, I think that we can look at it from a different perspective - if they made no mistakes thus far, does that not justify an "A" rating? If an assignment is exceedingly easy, you can still make mistakes on it and get a lower grade, and probably be graded more harshly on it; however, if you do everything perfectly, then in my eyes you deserve an "A" in the confines of this league. For the rating system, I only recently implemented it based on other people's feedback. In the past I did what you mentioned - just talk about the game, point out the good and bad things. I think there are pros and cons to both. Now that I've started though, I feel like removing it half-way through the playoffs would be almost taking a step backwards so I think I'll be keeping them in  They are all subjective, anyway, and I am by no means a progamer myself so I feel the amount of weight you want to put on them is whatever confidence you have in my analysis haha | ||

Usually I don't have time to play in leagues. This time I tried to find it and It was pleasure to play under the coach ty2. Unfortunately for last week I couldn't prepare because of marriage of my friend. I played the builds mostly suggested by my coach. With proper work they all could work. Ty2 always finds best builds so that even noob like me can win My teammates all are great. Especially DNH is beast --- I believe one of the best players of league, who also always finds time for practices whenever I ask. Don't forget about magical ponies! | ||
