Personally I stopped watching because the cocaster was just terrible. His knowledge about the game was sooo bad and he was not entertaining like TB is. Also both of them (especially cocaster) do not have good enough English to do casts in English.
To be fair I seen better casting from TaKesen, I think his cocaster ruined him casting as well.

He really needs to pick better for the future.

You were not listening to him proposing they save the game and continue later? And that one was even better then what he would say later.

I actually didn't hear that, but I wouldn't care, because he is a great caster and his knowledge is definitely better than Takes.

I think it was a french guy (I would guess that by his accent). And I do not call anyone good when they say "Oh there is nothing important there to lose" while roaches are killing a nexus, pylons, 3 warpgates and templar achives. And he had other such statements.
If we are still talking about the same guy, I would guess you choose by emotions while I was actually listening to what he was saying.

It was the one that was co-commentating at the start when they had lag problems. That is when he proposed they save the game LOL.

Later during the metalopolis game Darkforce vs mouzHasu (I think) was when he was talking stupid stuff all the time. After that I could not take it anymore and quit watching.

Great. Free up stream slots and make the viewing experience more enjoyable and more lag free for those who actually want to watch such a unique tournament with its environment and pro - viewer interaction. I suggest you skip tomorrow aswell - if you feel like nitpicking each of the caster's comments - it only means you aren't enjoying watching and most likely wouldn't even if day9 or someone you like was commentating.

Maybe you just heard all the stupid stuff because you wanted to hear it.
IMO he did a very good job casting these games.

Lol so much touchy feely people here. Just because you think someone is a good commentator does not mean they really are. And do not worry, I will not watch it if same co-commentator is going to be online. There are now enough of the quality people that I do not need to waste time on bad ones.

Please do so, tod just wanted to say that there were no minerals, running upgrades or tech buildings left, "only" gateways and pylons and he even said that losing those would heart hasu...

His english is very good for a frenchman and he is a very strong protoss player himself, I really don't get any of your points, but whatever

That's because ToD was a WC3 pro for a long time and in WC3 you could save a game and resume it later from that moment. SC2 doesn't have that feature unfortunately.

Really? I think the casting was great. Perhaps you are trolling and I do not understand the irony, but irony is hard to catch online.

However, what let me down, is that there are like only protoss players left, and Star2 protoss are horrid to watch, but sure they are fun to play. Collossus are like the most fun a-move unit to play in any rts game, but spectator-wise I can't think of anything worse (perhaps watching a stream of Sims 3 on livestream).

I don't get why somebody what DDos an event like this. considering he knows about this tourney means that he actually know something about esports. why the hell would you try to ruin it instead of supporting it (in e.g. buying the premium)

i just don't get it.


I don't understand it either. I mean...don't get me wrong, but I understand if someone did it to the GSL. I don't knpow what the motivation would be, but it's a really big event etc. etc.

But TaKe's tournaments?!? It's a small, friendly tournament and it's at his freakin' appartment. Seriously, WHAT THE FUCK? Why would you do such a thing? I simply cannot find a reason or motivation. Unless he really pissed someone off really bad, so I hope he remembers who that person could be


@Toxi78

Haha, 'nuff said.

I also think ToD did a REALLY god job. I even wanted to tell him that personally, because I hope he continues to commentate or cast some games.

He is very experienced. And of course casters aren't 100% right all the time. He speaks very good english, he knows the game, he knows the people, and again: he is VERY experienced.
And yes, he was right:the expo was nearly out of minerals. Of course every freakin' building hurts, all he wanted to say is, that the expo was "dead" anyway and the buildings can be replaced rather quickly. It's no comparison to a fully running expansion. You often can't replace that.

Tod did great. He relied too much on his own knowledge of the game though, which is unfortunately not on the same level as those people he casted so he assumed things that happen in upper, but not quiet pro, tier.

That sounds like i only listed negatives but that was the only negative.
