This will probably turn out to be a nub cast without Artosis' knowledge. "Omg he has a thor! All the mutas are gonna die and terran will win aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Weeeeeeeeeeee!! Oh.. thor died? 0_O. - I think they call it a magic loop.. or magic square?  | ||

I cannot understand her english sometimes - especially when she gets too excited and starts racing with her words. She interrupts her co-casters waaaay too often also. It really sounds like she's just chilling in vent with friends talking randomly about the game - not commentating to an audience. I'm really suprised Gom chose her. This is making me think barely anyone signed up for the job so they had no choice but to go with her...? | ||

Additionally, any points made regarding her knowledge of the subtle intracies of XvX matchups are entirely moot. While semi-esoteric knowledge/insight is always a nice thing to have as a caster, playing ability is most likely one of the least important skills one should have while casting. I'm quite sure the majority of posters here would donate their first imaginary child to get TB as the new GSL caster, and as entertaining and enjoyable as he is to listen to I'm fairly certain the majority of decent players would roflcopter all over him in a game. That's why he's a fairly successful caster, and not a pro gamer. | ||

Think even HD Phoenix wouldve been a better choice, he's Singaporean too isn't he?Considering how I've met her in person I suppose I got used to it right away.  And oh god, please no HD Phoenix. The guy's too much of a Husky poseur. | ||

Because even me as a non native english speaking person, who never heard or saw her before heard where she was from because of her thick chinese accent and that's something I think a commentator should work first on to get his english on a level that makes it good to listen to regardless of where you are from. And i think that's one of the reasons why americans are casting most of the time. They are the easiest to understand | ||

 . I'll be perfectly frank - I think that by themselves, Artosis and Tasteless are a lot less amazing than when they are combined :p. Maybe Kelly will bring along some synergy that'll surprise us  . | ||

I wouldn't know what she was saying if I didn't know what the units were called already and could kind of hear the sound for them Seems like a really bad idea for the e-sports community IMO. | ||

It is just her enunciation of certain sounds that make her hard to understand (i feel bad for those who speak English as a second language), specifically the "r" and "l" sounds that very typically those who speak Asian languages struggle with. That will come with some practice though so to discount her from the start would be fairly harsh. You can pick people on future potential, hence sporting teams recruiting young players. Though to be honest at the moment i am really not a fan of her casting. | ||

I'm sorry, but she is not up to the caliber of casters that GSL should have. Even my wife thought she was not good. (She's overheard some Tastosis commentary and she could even tell Kelly is not up to par) I'm not trying to be mean, but she has got a long way to go if she doesn't want to be replaced as soon as someone else comes along. | ||

He is a great caster imo. He seems to be very defensive over people not being able to understand Kellymilkies though. For a "cynical" Brit, he should try to be more cynical with her | ||
