annonces means they are commenting the matches on TV? or they just introduce which games are played that day?
Really, play for fun!

I really can't vote because I don't understand korean and thus can't comment on the players as announcements. I could however, vote for which of the ex-progamers I like the most, but that would defeat the purpose of the poll

sure u can vote. the purpose of this poll is to find out which ex-progamer announcer the majority of people like, it did not say anything about their comment. Therefore u vote for ur favorite ex-progamer, if he is not on the list, then u vote for "Other".

If i may comment on their announcing/commentating styles:

IntotheRain is definitely well liked b/c he brings his "progamer perspective" most obviously to his announcing. He is quite good at guessing what the players are thinking and you get the sense he comments by trying to get into the players' heads.

Garimto's style is the most straightforward, honest, and critical of I would say any of the commentators... he will openly criticize plays, say things like, "that's awful" (or mighty close to it). He has a really tongue-in-cheek tone that I personally love. People either love Garimto for his honesty or hate him for his bluntness.

Rookie and Leader are really professional-- they've been doing it the longest and are probably better known as commentators rather than pros. They are both very serious and analytic, and it's hard to say one is better than the other-- they are both clearly on top of games and it's really fun to watch games while hearing their comments. Leader is really smart and is good at analyzing the entire situtation at any given point in a game ("Player A has a slight advantage over Player B"), while Rookie I think is an excellent "predictor" of players' minds --> "Player A will now do XXX and Player B as a response will have to do YYY"

Just some of my personal impressions :-)

Two more pro-gamers turned announcers:

[z-zone]byun: 변성철 Byun Sung-chul

Aozora[NaN]: 김대기 Kim Dae-ki

Both are commentating in the women's league. Both are horrible commentators in my opinion, [z-zone]byun in particular -___-
