tulbo saw hydras in the mid and instead of instantly spending his banked 600 minerals on 4 extra photon cannons, he decided to fight with his corsairs and waste time before finally going for cannons when it was too late | ||

Anyway I think YSC vs Shine is always a 50/50 so not surprising. But YSC > Larva probably has something to do with the help of the map. No more Hydra bust threat + not even having to put more than 1 cannon at your entrance are huge advantage for P in the early game. | ||

I mean, last time i went on Sayian “proleague watchparty” - which is just nicking the stream of pros with no authorization - he was talking about how his dad had Trump Derangemrnt Syndrom, how there are too many immigrants and how central banks are a scam. That was a week after they started a stream with a homage to Charlie Kirk. I don’t think they mean badly, but it’s painful to listen to this junk. This stuff is so amateurish, they have no business being the official commentators of the biggest tournament in the world. | ||

I stopped watching them because it’s two Zerg players always saying how weak Zerg is and how the Zerg player is in trouble even when winning. Hearing that he also sucks the Cheeto dingus means I made the right choice. | ||

Just watch Korean already. Neither English stream is good if you understand the game well enough (or wish to understand it better) and one of them isn't even live. | ||

What’s your objection to Artosis as a commentator? I can’t stand his stream, but i find his casts quite insightful; he seems to know what he is talking about? | ||

This stuff is so amateurish, they have no business being the official commentators of the biggest tournament in the world. I think they are free to have whatever political opinion they want without it affecting their ability to cast the ASL. I often engage with them on their political opinions on their streams, but I don't agree with many of their political opinions, and I agree with some opinions. I think is great to have differing political opinions and still be respectful towards one another despite the differences. Gives us the possibility to come to a closer understand of differing views without any need for antagonism. | ||

Can already see Soma picking YSC, Snow picking Ample, Bisu picking sSak in the next round. Not sure who Barracks will pick (he's sort of an underdog himself), maybe one of Rain/Sharp/Queen (if he qualifies). | ||

I actually dont think Bisu will pick sSak. sSak is in particularly good shape and I think he will go as 2nd (5-8th) pick. | ||

Become a pro commentator with your own platform and not using someone else's. | ||

I never feel i understand the game better watching Sayian. But i mean to each their own. What i don’t want is idiotic speculations about someone being supposedly inconfident because they are overweight or having to hear right wing conspiracy theories when i am watching Royal and Snow play each other. It’s also nice when i am being informed i am watching series that are 8 months old while they are presented like they happened this week. That’s not a very high bar to ask for. | ||

They're overall fine, fan of Saiyan specifically, love his approach - i think sometimes things stick out, this YSC Fat stuff being an example, i think overharping on Minis mental waknesses/commentary on his mental strength because he makes faces sometimes sticks out to me. I may just be spoiled from Artosis/Tasteless/Nyoken/Gypsy live casting ASL in the past - Diggity is great too, don't think hes live casted ASL though, wish he would | ||

I think Xun tries to build hype too much with speculative statements I due to my connections with pros and a lot of behind the scene knowledge know is wrong. I think less speculative hype building and more in depth analysis is a way to improve. | ||

I think thats quality feedback for these guys. Like you said, overall they are fine, but its good they can think about what you guys dislike/enjoy and try to improve on that. | ||
