Personally I am willing to sacrafice some analytical stuff a few days in my life to have the pleasure of watching a girl working hard to get into a mens club. I like it  She is cute even!! This is a bit insulting to all gamer girls, that standards are lowered because she has ovaries.
Come on.. I am not in the mindset of putting girls down. It is more of a joke..and when I talked about her skills, I never referred to her being a girl. This is a mens club if you want it or not, and i want more girls in it. They can be just as skilled, and she know's more than most newerish players, and has som talent for casting..BUT she is NOT good enough. I still think she should be given some time to learn. We should recruit more girls to SC2. I'm just talking to an army of nerds here.

Yeah but this is the mentality that GOM is pretty much banking on to produce a wider viewerbase. And it's clearly working if people are willing to put up with pitchy, non-intuitive, casts which are hard for foreigners to understand. I've personally no problem understanding it but I don't really enjoy listening to her.
Even more disappointing is the choice of eye-candy. If they're going to treat us like idiots and use eye-candy to sell things, then at least give us some tasty eye-candy...

I've been watching code A tonight and this is just horrible. I'm sad to say but Husky would be a better caster. D-x It is so odd that a large television production company would choose her to... oh... a girl... nevermind... they will sell more tickets in the short-term I guess.
I really disagree with GOMtv's decision to have her cast, assuming that their goal was getting a caster of merit.
On one hand she doesn't say UHM UHM every second like Jason Lee... but atleast he showed more understanding of the game and his voice was pleasant.
Are you serious? In hectic situations, I find Husky almost impossible to understand, whereas I don't find Kelly that hard to understand at all. From the way people were talking about her, I was expecting like a borderline retard or something. Although my opinion may change in the future... but for now I don't mind her casting.

Shes not so bad if she doesnt try and talk so fast. People are just hating for the sake of hating.

Wow, this is one of those times where you are kind of stuck between a bullet and a target.
You want to be constructive, but ...I guess the one positive is that like any accent, after listening it for a very long time, you can pick up the nuances and inflection. It takes a while though, but one day you just realize you understand everything. Take it from a New Yorker...you just do.
So I guess what I am saying is that these are just growing pains.

Yeah she's good for the lower leagues, but if you actually know alot about the game and are passionate in learning more, you actually start to realize that this girl has no clue what she's talking about. None's hating for the sake of hating. Why she's bad has already been discussed in the thread, I recommend you to read it.
She's actually pretty good when she's quiet though, I'll give you that.
Edit: I should give some examples. In the first game she called out either a sure win or a sure defense 3 times and was comepletely wrong each time. She continuesly calls out factual fallacies.

Tasteless must be facepalming mentally so hard, yet he stays composed. I'm actually really impressed with him, he salvages a lot from this riddiculous mess.

Zea Lots, everytime she says that a Day9 viewer dies

HuK vs Curious.
Kellymilkies: Usually you need 4 spinecrawlers to defend a protoss 3gate expansion.
^May I ask why she's commentating?

I think Huk just motioned for her to shut up.
I love you Huk, you know that, right?

youre talking about a 6 gate push. a 3 gate expansion is easely stoppably by a couple of lings and queens. a spine wont hurt, but 4 is super overkill. a 3 gate sentry expand applies some preassure in an attempt to make the Z produce zerglings instead of drones.

No... You'd never get enough hydras in time. What you need is like 3 queens and 1 spine, not 4 spines, that's freakin' retarded.
Hearts to Day9 for suggesting queens.
3 queens + 1 spine = same cost as 4 spines. 3 queens + 1 spine = you save 3 lava.
3queens = at least around 6 tranfuses which pretty much means 900 more HP the protoss has to smack through.
Have a late game use: i.e creep etc.

yeah im not watching any code A now, its a real shame.

did she just say racing karts instead of hellions?
|
Guys lets get a little less serious buisness about the code A casting please.
I dont have trouble understanding her. Shes not the best, still not the worst(think assembly). Thats why shes casting code A. Give the woman a chance. Shes got good people helping her about, and its her first day.
Well see what happens through the course of the season.
