I missed QXC vs Ensnare, though White-Ra vs TT1 certainly made up for it. White-Ra is awesome. I'm also loving Total Biscuit's casting, especially alongside Gretorp. | ||

Seriously though, I only understand part of what he says, but it is always very mannered and insightful, massive respect. | ||

Sports commentary is not about sharing the mic 50/50, it's about fitting into your role and speaking at the correct time. This is why Gretorp takes the majority of the airtime during quieter moments and I take the majority of the airtime during high-action moments. That's how sports commentary works, it's also what we agreed to do before the cast. You have zero respect for both the people listening to your casts and the people you're casting with. You're the one who doesn't play this game enough nor do you understand most of what's going on, yet you insist you know better than all the fans who enjoy this game on how they should enjoy it. I felt the same way as the guy you're quoting, and I'm pretty sure we're not alone, because it was blatantly obvious that you were drowning Gretorp out. Please get off your high horse. You are not the best caster, you are not the end-all to casting, there is no set standard for SC2 casting, it's a very new scene, it's constantly evolving, and if you want to do well you're going to have to listen to the fans of the sport(note: not the fans of YOU specifically, but fans of the game: every single one) on how to both improve yourself and how they'd like to see casting done in general. You always take an attitude of "it's about me and my perspective", but it's not. It's about the fans. And if they disagree with you, often, maybe it's time to stop ignoring everything they say and start looking at your own performance - despite how hard it might be to admit that to yourself. | ||

It was pretty obvious you two worked things out beforehand nicely, there wasn't much talking over each other, you both knew what you should be doing and meshed well during the cast.

I loved watching those, even though Josh is so bad. D: But yeah, I really enjoyed today's NASL matches, besides qxc looking weak again, more or less what I expected from everyone. | ||
