While I don't argue that the level of immaturity certainly reflects the majority of the fighting game community, I don't understand why this has to carry over into major events. People talk trash and say stupid crap when you play basketball on the schoolyard court, but despite this, you don't see this kind of mentality cross over into the commentary for any serious basketball tournament or competition. Leave that crap at the arcades and local meets... On the bright side, they've at least gotten rid of most of the swearing from the stream and the games so far have been very good as always... | ||

Preferably people that don't sound like they're stuck in a grade school mentality, blurting out stupid comments and constantly going off topic. EVO's come a long way, but the quality (or lack thereof) of professionalism and production shows that it's still got a long way to go... Despite the world class players, I could not get anybody I know to watch these streams with me simply because they were turned off by the loud, childish commentary to the point where they couldn't take it seriously as a world-class event...

Uh, most of these commentators are the players themselves. The fg community don't really have "professional" commentators since the community is mainly volunteer based. I.E. at NorCal Regionals, the commentators were well known local fg players who volunteered to commentate whenever they are not playing in their matches. I personally love most of these commentators such as Dogface, James Chen, S-kill, etc. If you expect professional commentators then just turn off the volume and just watch it silently. | ||

If you think someone like Seth K doesn't know what he is talking about and is stuck in the "grade school" mentality then you are just dumb. I'm not wild about some of the commentators, but you are drawing impossible comparisons. Professionalism isn't a desirable or necessary quality at ALL in most e-sport commentary. | ||
