Interesting ... watching her stream, I can imagine that even though Neeb is a better player than HuK, I think HuK probably takes more games off her than Neeb does. Neeb's methodical macro style is much easier for her to handle than HuK's aggressive mid-game play.

"Neeb is a better player than HuK"
I think I missed something

Scarlett vs. Mana and Scarlett vs. Bunny should be both super interesting match-ups.
Bunny definitely one of the innovators in Terran vs. Zerg. Unfortunately he wasn't able to attend Dreamhack because of education, but it will be interesting to see what he is doing in the MU.
Haven't seen much of Mana play recently but he has always been pretty gosu. Given her recent performances against Protoss the MU might not be so problematic..but Mana does have a very different play style to HuK, probably focusing more on late-game then early-mid aggression. But that might have changed in LotV.
Will SC2Improve be casting those games, or will I have to mute the BasetradeTV stream to watch it?

Neeb is generally considered the best NA player right now. He had something like a 93% winrate on NA before the ladder reset (compared to Scarlett's 81%). He also technically did the best of any NA player at DH, losing only 3-2 to the eventual champion. He's like, sick good.

What's wrong with Basetrade? I like those guys.

Yeah, and he arguably should have won both games 1 and 2 (game 1 he was up by like 3 bases and then lost to carriers, and game 2 lost to dark templar build order).
I'm a big fan of his, and it's interesting how similar his playstyle is to Scarlett's -- both have great mechanics, macro, decision-making and game knowledge, and neither are great at all-ins and cheese. Neeb also has fairly serious hand pain that prevents him from practicing too intensely. And similar to Scarlett circa 2012, he's shy and awkward to the point of cute/painful. :-)

I like Basetrade, particularly ZombieGrub. If anything, I tend to mute Wardi more often.

Just personal preference about their casting. I like ZombieGrub, I like the practicality of her casting style, her casts with FearDragon are quite entertaining. Rifkin, on the other hand, I just have no care for, his jokes, his calling of the games is just so pedestrian. Personally I'd like to see him move behind the scenes to management/administration of BasetradeTV
This can be totally divorced from their contribution to the community, I'm a fan of that. Their an important institution for North American Starcraft, and Starcraft in general, but I'll only watch select games when they are shown on their channel, and even then I'll just mute them.
I think its Wardii's accent that draws me to him. I'd love to see the guys from eSportsHeaven; Tenshi and Zeweig do more casting. Love those guys. But it is always the Aussie casters who are at the top of my list: Maynarde, Zepph, [SLCN]Deth, [Fray]Pox, [SYF]Insano are all incredibly gifted, incredibly knowledgeable casters. Should check them out if you don't know them: Deth, Pox and Insano usually cast the smaller OSC stuff.

Last spam post of the day, I promise. Scarlett -- love the BW music during stream!

It's more the fact that HuK is a player with an history, he has WON things. Neeb's liquipedia page looks a bit empty ;p
I mean maybe Neeb plays better than HuK at the moment and he probably has a better future in lotv since HuK is getting close to retirement, but I think it's too early to make a statement that Neeb is a better player. I want to see him win big tournaments like HuK did, not just some stats.

Good luck in Race Wars later, Scarlett!
I'll make sure to tune in, as I only watched first person at Dreamhack. :D
