I really wish people would stop justifying her casting by saying shes such a pretty girl. It shouldnt be about her being some sort of eyecandy for the camera. I watch GSL cause I enjoy top level SC2. I dont watch GSL cause I want to look at pretty girls. I can do that elsewhere. She didnt add anything extraordinary to the games, and that had nothing to do with her being female, singaporean or whatever else people has been bashing on, but rather that her understanding of the game is lacking.

I can't believe the tons of trash that have been dumped into this thread. What happened to TL???
Did anyone really expect Kelly to deliver like a seasoned caster even though this is only her first pro TV cast?
She did a good enough job imo. She is enthusiastic and tries to be entertaining. She knows enough about the game to be really good, she just needs some time to adapt.

Does anyone remember Tasteless when he first started casting the GOM BW events? That was pretty embarassing. But he improved drastically over time, and now most TL members would kill for the guy to cast their games.

Same for SuperDanielMan. His first casts were awful, and TL raged and screamed. But again, he got better fast, and the Tasteless/SDM duo became pretty popular.

What about John the translator? Remember his first interviews? They were pretty awkward. Look at John now! Flying solo, confident enough to tease Huk on his mistakes, making jokes, and loved by TL.

And the observer who took over Tasteless? How many TL members whined and complained during his first games?
Yet today, he is doing an excellent job and nobody complains any more.

Starting to see a pattern here? Give Kelly some time. She plays at a pretty decent level and she is paired with two experienced casters : she should be perfectly fine real soon.
I am convinced that when she has found her "style" of casting, many on TL will like her a lot.
And I personnally find it refreshing not to hear the same old worn out jokes by Tastosis. Kelly will allow them to find a new dynamic.

Now about the games, I am really glad Huk won convincingly. Even though he can do way better than what he showed today, the series was not even close. Once he gets used to playing in the booth and with that extra pressure, he will really be a strong contender for those Code S spots.

Go Hoodie Toss!

What's all this Kelly hate? Once she settled down I thought she was good. Her femininity and excitement bring another dimension to the cast.

Too many nerds in here scared of a female... just gotta relax, they won't hurt you ;(
