Day is 100x better than Tasteless with no practice or advice from korean broadcasting or work with ITG.

I really feel like there is a huge difference in maturity and competence between these brothers.

Day >>> Tasteless in speech, broodwar, and analysis.

Don't be embarassed Day, you didn't sound faggy, you sounded 100x better than your brother has ever casted.

Furthermore, Nony's sound quality is 10x better, but you sound 10x less faggy and uptight than him.

Well I dont think ITG helps many people, they keep sending out guys like Wacksteve and TossSpot (wc3). If ITG is there and its not tasteless, theres going to be alot of probes called herbie going around, and alot of battles being missed.

That been said: gogo day do more of this

hm

First of all i think that what Nony and Day did was awsome and i'm happy to see they've done this.

But i feel it's almost unfair to compare this to the live casts i've done... this is a VOD they've both seen before. Obviously the analysis is going to be great--and it was. When i cast it's live, many times solo and also infront of a big audience that i am paid to entertain.

As far as speaking goes i think they're speech is great. Try speaking solo (no co-caster) and controling the oberver screen while speaking the entire time. Trying to control the camera at a speed where you catch everything and go slow enough for the observers to see the game accurately is quite difficult. I'm not even going to say i'm very good at it, i'll just say that that it makes the whole casting process about 10x harder than you would ever believe... especially casting infront a live audience i'm told i must interact with as well as a live stream over the internet.

I'm also told to make the game understandable for everyone watching. That means people who don't even know the diffrence between terran, zerg and protoss. There are times where i simply spend the start of the game explaining why players need to mine minerals. This is what i'm told to do by the people who pay me and send me to these tournaments. And i do it to get more people following starcraft, because i have every intention of helping starcraft and e-sports on ALL levels.

I'm not too sure what you mean by maturity but i'm sure if you met us both you would see no diffrence. Please understand that the character you see as 'Tasteless the caster' is actually a personality i made up for the sake of entertainment, while it refelcts a part of my humor i'm not EXACTLY like that in person. If your refrencing some of the jokes I make i'm simply trying to add my own humor to the game, i'm sorry if you don't like it. I even do non broodwar related things like wresteling Carmac (a judo black belt) and have it filmed and put on the internet just to try to give more to the coumminty. But I don't think an immature person can convince a major company to send him to another country to cover a major event with the entire e-sports universe watching. Keep in mind i started doing this with no public speaking experience at all--I hope people would feel i've imporved (and i'm still trying) since i started doing this--which i did for the community

I'm not saying i'm a hero or that i'm the best or that i'm even owed something by the community, i'm just asking that you not make such a crass judgment as to compare us or the VODs which were produced in completely diffrent enviorments with completely diffrent expectations.

Again, excellent job nony and day : ) i look forward to more of these.

PS. You do not sound 'faggish' at all sean ; ) I actually went through the exact same experience when i first heard my own voice casting a game. Eventually you'll get used to it. I <3 u and ur a great brother

I thought of bringing this up in light of the recent scandals. I think this goes a long way in proving Bisu's win as a legitimate one.

I know back when I first saw this I really appreciated it.

But this way it also highlights how our beloved Plott Brothers have evolved in their commentating, with Sean live-casting the MSL finals (to a smallish-ish audience), and Tastless not showing all that much.

I really hope GOM takes Tastless up again to cast their SC2 games, as GOM has been awarded the rights to SC2 broadcasting by Blizzard.

The plot thickens...

I'm going to go back and edit all the old posts to be extremely pessimistic about Day's casting abilities.

"This guy is never going to make it as a caster! He doesn't understand the game at all!"
