The problem isn't that code A is full of bad players, but that the games are usually really really lopsided. Not really, the competition's looking fierce this season. Sure there's still a few bad players left over from the pre-season but the quality of the games will still be twice as good this time around. I say 2 more seasons max before code A competition and code S competition are both intense. | ||

Also, I posted this wall of text at the bottom of Page 11, I don't really like doing this, but I feel it got lost in some post surge about Code A arguments, and there is a lack of opinion from a Singaporean perspective: + Show Spoiler + On February 18 2011 15:21 IntoTheEmo wrote: This looks exactly like Tasteless + Susie from GOM Claasic S2, but with one huge difference. Susie knew a lot about the Korean culture and the Proscene that she was able to give us info and tidbits about the Korean players and such from a Korean perspective, not to mention doing on scene translation of Korean. Yet due to negative response back then they replaced her with SuperDanielMan of the exact same things people are worried about now minus the accent - lack of game knowledge, not speaking as much (Tasteless and Artosis would probably be the more dominant voice, and djWheat described her as almost timid) kellyMILKIES bring nothing new to the table, judging by the comments of that last 70+ page thread and from listening to her myself. As a Singaporean myself, I'm going to admit that dropping the Singlish from one's speech is ridiculously hard, it took me 5 years of WoW with Aussies to be able to completely fix it online, and even then it's just so easy to revert back to speaking Singlish when with friends. And Singaporeans are hard wired to pronounce certain words the wrong way - it's been taught to us from our school days such as pronouncing "three" as "tree". So I don't really get the point of getting Tastosis to um teach her the ropes? babysit? Not sure what the purpose is... Either way I don't see why they would gamble like that despite the news riling up the community as seen in the last thread. Best of luck to GOM regardless. Speaking of which, time to go back and watch some Tastsusie again, good times. They need to maintain the quality of their tournaments, especially casting wise, with the rise of the new NA league, which would probably feature some huge casting talent. | ||

PS. Was a bit excited to see Torch cast, think in the end GOM is better of having a dedicated Code A caster duo, though this might work for now... | ||

GOM has made their decision, for now at least, you all need to suck it up and stop whining. | ||

It's not a "built-in accent that cannot be changed" thing. I have looked through a few of her casts and I don't see her with the ability to turn it "on" and "off". Lets hope she can though or GOMTV may loose a good chunk of the foreigner audience watching Code A (except for foreigner games). Personally, I have stayed up till 3 - 5am to watch Code A before, that wont happen next season. | ||

If you're going to let someone with an accent you don't like prevent you from watching really great games you need to reevaluate what your priorities. GOM has made their decision, for now at least, you all need to suck it up and stop whining. Can someone ban this guy please? Where did you read that people were going to stop watching Code A because of Kelly? Hmm? Where did you read here that anyone here HATES starcraft? Eh? No I didn't think so. People said they're going to HATE watching Code A with Kelly. And if possible they will avoid it by watching a restream recast, or finding the original Korean stream or something. Read the thread before you post. | ||

I mean casting makes games more exciting which made people buy/watch these kind of tournaments. Imagine watching NBA or La Liga or Superbowl with a caster like that? Blood bathe will commence lol | ||

Have you read this PAGE? -Archangel- right above you said she will directly effect whether he subscribes or not. Several people have said either flat out that they won't watch in this thread or the last thread, or at least that they may stop watching code A all together if she's as terrible as they're sure she will be. If people can put up with IPP and his maweens they can put up with this. | ||

I'll give her a chance, but I think the casts would have been better with Torch helping out or even some of the other progamers if they are already out of the tournament. | ||

They find out she's casting... they look for her latest casting vids on youtube/streaming... ... and they can't understand half of what she's saying. =/ | ||
