Idra's not mature. He's a wuss. And here you are trash talking Idra from behind a computer. The irony. | ||

 IdrA offers great insight on timings, builds, and just basically what should work and what won't. Jorgen seems to be a very aggressive player, because I've caught him in several situations saying over and over "he has to attack right now" when maybe that wouldn't be such a good idea, but overall I think he knows a lot about the game as well. Assem and Jason honestly don't add a ridiculous amount of insight to the game though, and they tend to just say what's happening with very little analysis. Although I prefer that to just making shit up as filler though. I think a lot of that has to do with them not actually controlling the camera though, which means they are pretty much part of the audience with no way to check on things that they are saying. This isn't to say that I haven't enjoyed the past few games, because I definitely have. These are just my opinions on where there are some flaws. I can't wait to have my Tastosis back though. | ||

Grack did great, I'd like him even more if he threw in some of his epic quotes. ^^ Assem is an Artosis Jr. "ROFLstomped" "wiggly and jiggly" and similar phrases are something that I personally don't like and don't feel like they belong when broadcasting a professional sports tournament. Even if it is ESPORTS. Jorgen had good things to say, but speaks a bit too softly and isn't the best English speaker. | ||

He is admittedly not very familiar with StarCraft 2 but seems to care enough to put in the effort to get things right and be professional, unlike Tastosis attempting to cast War3/CS and just not giving a fuck and talking about god knows what. Jason is a very good host, very good at asking the analytical person the right questions, and good at calling the action packed parts. Much respect to Jason.

When I heard the ROFLstomped yesterday I didn't know what to think. I don't think even Artosis would say that one and if he said it he would be laughing about it with Tasteless. Assem said it pretty much entirely seriously which makes me think it's actually a part of his vocabulary. Other than that though I thought the casting was acceptable. Unfortunately it can be a bit annoying when the casters aren't very familiar with the game but as you mentionned at least they are trying their best. IdrA was a great fit I think because he would actually give correct information while Jason Lee took care of talking non-stop to fill the void. | ||

Apparently she owns a plateau.. what about "Centuries" instead of "sentry's" i realy liked it when idra was casting he gave some realy great insight. The other casters are pretty bad and make some realy weird calls. edit: dont know about Jorgen though havnt realy seen him cast | ||

Tasteless and Artosis say a LOT of things such as HE MIGHT VERY WELL WIN THE GAME RIGHT HERE or predict future happenings even though a majority of the time they get their predictions wrong I did not see idra or jorgen cast | ||

Who knows how well he could have done if he had all his time to invest in practicing rather than casting.. He's a damn clever player and strategist, and mostly just lacks that perfect execution. Not many zergs made it far in GSL1 anyhow, so I guess you can't hold him to too high of a standard. I'll have to agree there, if Artosis had more practice time i'm sure he would have gotten further! | ||

Thats like a professional football player commentating then being like, "Oh it's offense again, brb." lol That's how it feels to me though.  thats almost like a coach going back and playing football LOL ![[image loading]](http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/4895/gregrobinson.jpg) | ||

If all people did that as well as being interested in the truth then you would see them talk pretty much the same. I think he's a good guy with respect for the game and industry around it and he simply can't stand seeing people blather on about things they know nothing about or don't want to know the truth about. I find it bizarre that so many people misunderstand it and all they manage to see is "rage" "BM" and so on. People try to act nice even when it's not what they're thinking and not what they really care about. He says what's on his mind, I find it much better. Honesty beats fake-nice. | ||
