I just finished the VOD, 2am and I have class in 7 hours... T_T
It was a lot of fun, ggs all round.

On the 'cast too mean' thing, the only time I thought it was a bit much was when both Chill and Rage were in the stream. Not because of what they were saying but the 2v1 aspect made it feel kinda rough to me. Just a thought.

Awesome showmatches, but IMO vs GG.net was more fun because there were more cutesy cheeses. We need more of those in the next one (if there will be one).

Before I started watching the VODs I did read the posts here first. After reading it I really expected Rage having done some serious trash talking. Then I watched the VODs and now I am really wondering what you are complaining/talking about?? I mean Rage did some minor trash talking nothing to be called exaggerated...
Moletrap was rather a let down though. He was trying to be too nice.
The only thing I was wondering about why Rage got so enraged about Psyonic's offensive GGs (at least it seemed like it as I could only read some of the in-game talk due to bad VOD quality). Offensive GGs are completely ok in grudge matches in my opinion. TL was cocky so Psyonic had all the right to be cocky as well - unfortunately he got raped afterwards

I really enjoyed the games. Got up nice and early to watch. I never found Rage/Chill to be offensive at all. Really, Moletrap knew what he was getting into. QQ imo.

I thought the trashtalking levels got a little out of control at times which made me cringe. It got a little repetitive and a little too "unclever", especially when Rage came on. Besides that, Chill and Moletrap managed to convey most of the action in an intelligent funny manner.

The games themselves were much more entertaining than the ones against GG.net. Deadvessel, Chill, Hot_Bid and Insane completely dismantled the opposition. OneOther's masterclass in how to play conservative protoss. Bad players who tend to lose their protoss armies should try to learn from that game, because that's how you can be good at PvT without being very good. Rage and Psyonic Reaver's game was hilarious from start to finish: The defective wall-in, the probe's 100 attempts to get through the neutral building, the laggy vultures, the proxy fac, the offensive gg and subsequent humiliation.

Yea pretty much raped us. Thanks for the games either way. Hope you had fun.

Sorry I couldn't participate. =/ Sundays the worst day of the week for me schedule wise. Hotbid I'm still down to play if you are around Saturday (circa endurance casting) or Weds/thursday (yankee league casting) just for kicks if you feel like it.

Oh dear when people said moletrap's game knowledge wasn't good I thought they were just being elitist, but now I realise they weren't exaggerating at all.

But he's a nice guy, so I cringed often when he said something really blatantly wrong because Chill would correct him so bluntly and cynically (which was sometimes quite funny).

Well you don't have to know a lot about the game to be an effective commentator. You just have to kind of tell what's going on and be entertaining.

But yes, I do agree with your point >_>...which isn't to say that moletrap isn't a good commentator.
