That is awesome :D

Hey HD and Husky, just made an account so I could tell you how much I love your tournament. I never played SC1 or Broodwars, but thanks to watching your vids I can't wait to start playing SC2 :D
|
@AyJay haha, i've been thinking the same thing, that HD should get a desk.
|
I had a couple of questions about SC2 patches. Any thoughts?
1. Do you think they should change the animation of the scanner sweep, because SC 1 had a really cool animation for that?
2. Should vikings have their air attack range nerfed?

Wait. ...It did?

Wasn't it just blue sparkles? Or are you being sarcrastic?

Hiya HD and Husky,
You're both doing great work, as you continue to improve the production aspects of your commentary.
HD - you need a decent clip-on mic on your tie like broadcasters use. Use compression and eq on the recorded audio signals to normalize the difference between in-game casting and "behind the desk" pre game stuff that may get recorded with different mics. Invest in some good software to help you manage all this and spend a week or two getting the basics down. I can help with suggestions if you like.
Husky - love the attitude, love your sense of humor, don't feel the need to explain yourself so often (such as when you went off on the google partner thing or the fake "Husky" thing) just let your natural excitement for starcraft be the focus. I love your coverage of interesting maps created by the community.
Also to both of you, be "inclusive" as opposed to "exclusive" i.e. invite PsyStarcraft to do a co-commentary sometime and spread the love. HD can suck up to team liquid and then turn around and tell Psy "he's not qualified" for the HD invitational because, well I realize the names are a big draw and the team liquid community is a great resource for both viewers and great players... And it's probably pretty annoying that some of psy's viewers keep harassing you about playing him. But the point is - he is a very, very intelligent zerg player who is a good communicator and improving his ability to share insights very much on a level with Day 9. Don't shun him, use him to grow your audience and eSports, etc. I would not be surprised if his player skills could compete on a level with WhiteRa, Idra, actually.
That's pretty much it guys. Thanks for getting me excited about Starcraft II and let's all hope for great times ahead!

Way more interested in seeing White-Ra vs. Tasteless now after seeing the WhiteRa vs Slush showmatch

The same Psy Starcraft that calls people faggots in his commentaries and makes Swastikas with his overlords? I agree he seems like a competent player but he would definitely have to clean up his act if he wants to do co-commentaries with HDH.

If what you say above is true, I definitely agree he might not possess the maturity. In which commentary did he cast those aspersions? Can you give link please?

http://www.youtube.com/PSYSTARCRAFT#p/u/25/q7XcqYW9XRE At least he corrects himself after I guess. http://www.youtube.com/PSYSTARCRAFT#p/u/40/mskEagrC2xo
I don't want to rag on Psy too much, because he is a good commentator and I know his edgier style is what makes a lot of people like him, but I just get the feeling that it's a completely different image to what HDH is trying to get across.
edit: found it, updated.

Agreed... He's a bit raw and if HD or Husky were to feature one of his games or commentaries, there would probably need to be some "OK for this one Psy I need you to tone down the potentially offensive stuff because... THIS IS HDH biyatch!" 50,000 subscribers and counting! lol

why does one of the commentator keep saying "zergings," is it like his nickname for them or what
|
because zergings is better than zerglings

WTF is wrong with this thread?
Why are people going on about HD and Husky's ability to stream and bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.
If you don't like it, then don't watch. It's a GREAT invitational tourney and it's happening for YOU. You can just choose not to watch it and that's that. Apparently, thousands and thousands of online viewers DO enjoy watching it.
SO!!!
When are the next games? Why isn't anyone talking about that? We need a date! WE WANNA SEE ^_^

I believe the games are being played this weekend, so I'd assume they'll will cast them during the following days. Don't take my word for it though.
