GSL2 Ro64 some kid rushed BCs I think. It was sort of embarassing.

All the preparation in the world won't stop that map from being terrible for Zerg.

Yeah, looks like Foxer is the terrans Fruitdealer this GSL. Although Zergbong is playing really well too.

I just hope a Protoss hero will turn up in GSL3..

I think djWheat brings nice professionalism to the casting here at DC, he's got nice flow of bringing you into the game, and passes the commentating off with good questions to Day9 the type of commentating I like to hear. I'm not a big fan of JP, I feel like he's better at being a post-game interviewer or something along those lines, maybe even a 3rd commentator which I think will finally come to SC2 soon. Just take a look at the GSL Korean commentators.

What you guys think?

Don't lose on Metalopolis, then you get to pick Scrap as the third map.

Win!

When no tournament uses those maps anymore. IdrA would have to go out of his way to find a practice partner for each race and then play KR and DO.

Sometimes they say utterly ridiculous things. For example: qxc V Sen match - on metalopolis I believe - qxc was running some helions through Sen's natural. Sen just kept his drones mining and Wheat said "excellent drone control by Sen, avoided the helions" and all I thought was "what?..."

And some of the commentary on Protoss players especially makes it really clear to me that they fail to understand the basics of P BO's and decision making etc.

That said, it's not important. Wheat has a good energetic style which I enjoy far more than Artosis and than Tasteless. Even though he obviously understands less than those two, he's a lot more entertaining. And providing entertainment is the commentator's job imo. I can see what's actually happening myself. It's why I enjoy Korean commentators over others. I don't understand a word they're saying, but the excitement in their voice is all I need.

All English commentators are sub-par compared to Klazart however.

Fair question. I haven't been following the scene that closely except for the GSL. There also seems to be a lot of tournaments so I've been too lazy to get an overview over the most 'important' ones if u will.

And he probably wouldn't have if positions hadn't been closer than the map he did eliminate because of close positions.
