Felt like Day9 was talking a bit down to Apollo at times, like "uhu" "yeeeeah" "uhm" "ya".

Tho they did very good. Alot better than those two clowns commenting on the Quake Live game av3k vs calipt. They basically masturbated over anything av3k did, followed him 90% of the match and gave calipt about 1 minute all together on the cast. It was a total embarrassment.
Dead girls don't say no.

So can anyone explain me why players should ever be penalized for whatever stupidity casters are doing? Like, since when are casters who have no skill in the game more valuable than actual players?

Apollo comes across as trying too hard.
He's informative and everything he says is relevant and has a point but he just needs to relax a bit more because it's actually bad to be too enthusiastic. If he tries to be more laid-back, I think he could be one of the best casters.

I'm curious why I don'h hear any crowd on the VOD's doing applause or anything like that.Is there actually none (or at least a very small audience), or do they just don't give a proper applause. Some pics would be nice.
Or is it because its not open to the nornmal audience already?

I quite like BigT. Not as much as Day9 but he is certainly more proficient than Apollo.


You're such a joker... my friend who knows NOTHING about starcraft heard BigT casting when I watched the ESL event two days ago and said whoever was talking sounded like an annoying douchebag... so he pretty much hit the nail on the head.


I don't see why people rag on BigT so much, he is perfectly fine. BigT might sound like a douche but then again Apollo is infact a douche which makes him automatically sound like a douche.

Yeah, "perfectly fine"... if you can pretend all that trouble he caused in the last few tournaments was all just innocent, "facetious" fun on his part. I don't know Apollo well enough to comment on whether or not he actually is a douche in real-life, but at least he has some sense of professionalism as a caster and doesn't fuck up every other tournament he casts in.

Really like Day9 and his commentary. Not a fan of d.appollo at all, find his voice to be annoying and he is always tripping over his words and he seems to just be making stuff up.

Apollo is just repeating what Day9 is saying and then saying what he is seeing.

Sean "Day[9]" Plott and Shaun "d.Apollo" Clark.

I was pleasantly surprised by d.Apollo who did a lot better that I thought he would and improved throughout the day.

I agree with the earlier comments that they tended to talk over each other, but that too get better as they got used to working with each other. I think both of them were full of nervous energy and adrenaline to start with and, it seemed that they were asked to waffle/fill in until the broadcasters were ready to go, which resulted in a pretty garbled into section and a lot of Day[9] theorycraft

Once the games were under way, they seemed to get into a better groove and the last match I caught was excellent.

Whoever is controlling the camera is doing a damn good job too, they seem to have caught all the important action - although there were a couple of near misses

I've just googled d.Apollo and it seems that he's been out to Korea a few times in the past 12 months hanging out with Tastless, Artoisis and others. His blog on the Dignitas site credits Tasteless with re-igniting his interest in RTS games as he was burnt out after working hard to win a few C&C tournaments back in 2007/2008. It appears that Tasteless has been working with him on his casting too.

Just for the record, not all germans speak like carni and take, but they are extra great in german, so it's all good.

It's never bad to be enthusiastic. Unless you think this is golf or tennis commentating. Or those awful english commentators for the world cup. Unlike those spanish commentators who get excited over everything. You're right, you can be too enthusiastic.

i thought dApollo actually was very insightful strategically wise while day is very noob friendly and points out mostly obvious(to me) things.

Day[9] . great caster but you talk too much. dApollo has to interrupt you to say something and often it seems he is stressed because you're not gonna let him talk too long and jump right in and take over the show again.
