First day's casting was a bit rough, but you just need some practice. You have the personality and ability to do it based on what I've seen on your stream. Bop some clowns handsomely, you'll definitely be a great caster! GRETORP FIGHTING

There is just something about the way gretorp slings his words together that makes him a great caster. I feel his casting today was a little rough, but his previous casts are a strong indication that it's probably only temporary. With that said, I dislike how he uses "parried x attack well", When I hear him use it (and its nearly every cast) I find myself debating if I would use something that has quite medieval connotations in a game set thousands of years in the future rather than actually watching the game. Anyways good player but I have not seen much of him in SC2, casting seems to fit him quite well though.

I'm surprised there wasn't a fanclub made earlier.. I loved watching him stream his SC2 beta play.
Oh- that handsome ghost play against P.

Gretorp is really smart and sexy man he is really an actuary. Do you know how hard it is to become an actuary? There are 12 exams and the first exam has less than a 50% pass rate and he did all this while beating everyone in bw and becoming a sponsored player on team fanatic. This man deserves your respect.

If he tried to explain starcraft to us our tiny brains would explode. This is why his casting in the NASL is terrible. He is trying too hard to use smaller words so we would understand but give him time and he will master this too.

PS. @Gretorp: You said you would try to come to the NYC Cybercraft lans we need someone to beat Pokebunny

Gretorp your cast today was much-improved. You did a great job of not fumbling over your words, your volume was fine, and your casting style felt very natural today. Keep up the good work!

Please sign me up! He's been my favorite player since i saw him beat jinro on his stream back in the beta with amazing play and my favorite caster since he casted Europe vs Asia with day[9].

Just finished the VODs from yesterday's NASL, and I'm shocked. I expected Gretorp to get better over time, but not quite that quickly. The casting was amazing, and I'm looking forward to more on Saturday.

Gretorp is at his best when he's talking and playing IMO. He would explain things incredibly well and accurately, and so far he's doing a great job in NASL. I don't understand why he gets so much flack for his commentary and I've been a fan from the beginning.

Also Gretorp fun fact. His name backwards is proterg, which Gretorp being the genius that he is knew it would signify that he played all three races, protoss, terran and zerg.

Sign me up. Before the Day9 Daily there was the Gretorp Livestream, Terran 101 almost everyday. Even when it'd inevitably start to cost him some games he'd still do his best to answer questions, even the stupid ones.

Best wishes go here.
