EPTI for one don't mind Moletrap, or any casters for that matter. I enjoy all of them. I like some more than others, but I'm more thankful than anything than OGN is even attempting to cater to us. Let's be happy for now, and everyone can start complaining later when something is actually known...

It's entirely possible that OGN could poach casters from another tournament, they almost undoubtedly have more money than most organizations. I don't know enough about the logistics to give any sort of expert opinion, but there's a lot of people out there that have gotten a general better reception than Moletrap. They could even potentially convince a player like Grubby to cast for them if the deal is sweet enough. edit: off the top of my head, Katu, orb, Husky, Apollo, Axeltoss, and Adebisi all are better casters than Moletrap arent Katu and orb people who got crucified by the community in the past? im pretty sure OGN would prefer to have a caster that some people hate then casters with history like that the thing your missing is few casters are good enough and have a long enough track record for OGN to be willing to bring them out to Korea and not every caster is willing to drop everything in there life and move out there since there not going to find a better caster (debatable i suppose) then Moletrap and Torch, and they already proved there worth doing LoL it wouldnt surprise me if they have them do SC2 | ||

Also the incessant screaming that adds basically nothing. I guess I may be somewhat biased because I'd rather have calm correct analysis commentary than screamed sometimes correct play-by-play that sometimes does a bit of analysis due to my formerly mid-high masters SCII and current Gold LoL(roughly equivalent of masters) status. | ||

I was enthusiastic about him early on, but he just doesn't seem to have improved at all. He definitely has the enthusiasm, but he has to understand that he needs to work and do his research, on both the game and the players, if he wants to do a better job and have less people disliking his casting. | ||

Just sayin'. he was planning on casting code a and with goms new schedule thats only means hed be casting for a few hours a couple days a week no pro could cast for OGN and remain relelvant theyd turn into Artosis, an amazing analytical commentator but never going to do well in a tournament | ||

Now I'm a happy camper with Moletrap not casting for GomTV anymore, and I just don't want to hear about him anymore. Sure he is a nice person, but in my opinion a very poor, irritating caster. I also think that GomTV could have made more profit if they had hired another caster (which was maybe not possible at the time), because I'm sure that some people did not just ponder stopping their GomTV subscribtion but actually did it. | ||

Someone that knows both Starcraft 1 and Starcraft 2. Someone that has lots of experience casting. It'd be pretty hard to find someone. Someone that knows alot about sc2. Someone that does not have an irritating voice. Someone that does not interrupt his co-caster .Someone that is at least a little charismatic. I agree that this is not easy, but I would be sad to see a "lesser choice" being chosen because there is "nothing else".. (edit : and I would not pay anything for that. In comparison I spent 200$+ on gom already, including the ticket for the whole 2012 year..) | ||

Other than that id say they should find someone awesome like Apollo or some of the other casters like Axel and bring them over to do it. Id hate if they have horrible casting. Actually id nearly stream audio of myself casting (not the video since that is wrong) if they do use moletrap. In an ideal world they could share casters but unfortunately they are in " friendly competition " | ||
