When I say bitching i mean the venting by comments like the one you mention. I think both NASL and TB (and all the other casters) appreciate CONTRUCTIVE criticism.

But then again, its a matter of taste. Some like the way TB casts and some prefer other casters. But just because a caster isnt in your taste, it isnt really relevant to the forums?

But yeah, constructive criticism is something that can help this community, but is also rare on these forums.


I actually do think that even though it is a matter of taste it is relevant to the communtiy, probably not in a LR thread so I will make this my final post about this but again, if the taste of the majority leans in a certain way that should really be taken into consideration when hiring commentators much as (I assume) the GSL did with Kelli. I myself has no problem with TBs voice etc but I just dont think his humoristic style and imo lack of SC2 knowledge makes him suitable for a big tournament like this.

The commentators are there for our sake, its important to remember that, they are there to highten our entertainement and if they are not appreciated they should not commentate big tournaments, if you need alot of practice etc you should get that in the smaller ones.

Why do analytical comments have to be said with a monotone voice?

Actually TB is one of the casters that brings more excitement to the game , he certainly could leave a lil bit more room for gretorp to analyze , specially in battles , and bring the "SC2 knowledge" , but overall the feeling is good.

Gretorp + Idra is a boring casting duo , not their fault obviously , but i think having a casting duo is for having a "showman" that brings the entertainment and an analyst bringing the knowledge.

If I try to get someone into watching SC2 more likely he will be hooked by TB , Husky , these kind of casters than other kind of... and I actually enjoy them quite a bit as they bring the fun and the tension to the games.
