Other than that I prefer Rapid because he's a great translator. I think FlaShFTW was a good caster for ASL, but unfortunately he chose to resign for ASL5 due to conflicting timezones. (Unfortunately he never got as much attention because he didn't cast on the main stream.) | ||

I believe that their mix of personality/technicality is best suited for professional casts that are catered to both hardcore-players and casual fans of BW (which I think ASL is and should be, if you guys want a chance to revive the scene a bit). I'm also glad that Rapid improved a ton over these past few months. | ||

I might put together random commentaries for the small tournaments that I'm in like CPL or STPL c: | ||

I would like to see him again. | ||

Like people have said, he just needs to be paired with someone knowledgable. Guy can be pretty entertaining. Kinda like how James was with ddk on CSGO. Edit: Oh and Rapid does have something over Tasteless/Artosis. If you pay attention, you can tell that he sounds like he follows TL a lot; he speaks from a perspective of a fan. In other words, he mentions a lot of recent stuff about the progamers involved as opposed to the latter two who tend to reference what they knew of them in the past (TBLS forever good, Flash is king etc). It's sort of refreshing to hear on the main stream. | ||

I'm also glad that Rapid improved a ton over these past few months. I have always enjoyed Artosis and Tasteless for their personal banter etc. Right now however, I strongly disagree that they cater to both crowds. Their in-depth knowledge of the game is more than lacking. On April 15 2018 23:19 2Pacalypse- wrote: RAPiD is pretty great.

Actually, NoRegret could be that person. It showed through the cast that he has a good knowledge of SC2. If he could achieve the same level in BW he would be the best by far. | ||

Or is it because you feel like it's something a broadcast 'should' have, because it just FEELS right to you for whatever reason (maybe it gives the broadcast a feeling of legitimacy, professionalism, etc.) | ||

I know that they get really hyped (which I adore), but I don't know much else. | ||

One to lay me down and caress me with the sweet words and chocolatey voice then one to slip me that juicy info while i'm vulnerable. | ||

Or is it because you feel like it's something a broadcast 'should' have, because it just FEELS right to you for whatever reason (maybe it gives the broadcast a feeling of legitimacy, professionalism, etc.) Different reasons. First of, it annoys the hell out of me if I see something on screen and the caster tells me something different or tries to figure out what's happening even though it's obvious. Secondly, I'm not an omniscient BW monster so it's nice to get some insights on things I don't know from time to time. This is why I like pros casting because at times they tell you about certain timings, scout patterns or something like that that's very specific and only appears in very high level play. Thirdly it's nice for new players to have casters that actually give them correct information about what's happening instead of confusing them with information that is not true (especially Tastosis is very good at implying they actually know what they are talking about while being utterly wrong). That said, I think a cast should have both: entertainment value and high-level information. | ||

Without a playerbase there is no future. And learning about players makes you understand and respect them more. Given the competitive nature of BW, that in turn helps create a friendlier gaming experience. Superdanielman and Tasteless was my favorite combination back in the day. SDM gave so much interesting insights about the game and its scene. Tasteless rambled less back then and his jokes were actually funny. Every time I try Tasteless nowadays he just annoys me. (I'm just stating my opinion, I'm not hating on any casters.) | ||

Or is it because you feel like it's something a broadcast 'should' have, because it just FEELS right to you for whatever reason (maybe it gives the broadcast a feeling of legitimacy, professionalism, etc.) I mean they are professional casters, they should have more than just a working knowledge of the basics of the game if you ask me. Its also really cringy when it is obvious that the casters have no idea what is going on in the game or make consistent wrong calls etc | ||
