It isn't the best it can be with Gretorp at the helm. He tries hard but his lack of vocab + malapropisms makes for a painful, painful listening experience. He's analytical. He has great knowledge of the game. He's a great straight man to iNcontroL's funny man. He does a better job than a lot of other casters can. Him and iNcontroL together are funnier and a better casting team than anyone but Tastosis in my opinion, and even that can be argued. | ||

According to the broadcaster on the NASL chat, Haypro was sick and Strelok got a walkover over him. However, given what Gretorp and MrBitter said, I am totally confused. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/0Qmv3.jpg) | ||

I don't mind Gretorp's humor (I think him and Mr. Bitter make a great team), but I do agree that his vocal skills do need more work if he's aspiring to be a top-tier commentator. He needs more clarity and confidence in his speaking; he has the excitement and passion, he just needs to refine his speech. | ||

HayprO has the ability to be the best zerg in the world and I for one believe him to be able to win the next MLG, HayprO is the reason I tuned in. Want something to back it up? What about the 2-0 loss to rsvp in ipl2q3 where he played like a bronze noob? | ||

The big reason for this, I suppose, is the fact that he cannot describe a simple fact and a situation in a simple way. He has to take his 5 minutes to describe a simple event, and along the way, he is getting confused where he started about which player and what he is even trying to say. It's not even his English, a lot of foreign casters are more articulate. | ||

I would argue that Gretorp has been the most controversial element of NASL so far. That does not bode well for the future of his casting. | ||

However, given what Gretorp and MrBitter said, I am totally confused. They probably recorded their studio segment while trying to get confirmation from Haypro. Since the post-game was so ambiguous, either player could have won and both casters would have still been correct. When Haypro couldn't show, they couldn't really edit out their vague comments, and left it in. | ||

Because not only did they not show up the match, in the end of day "Summary" of matches, they didn't say anything at all about the actual match, as if it they didn't even watch it. Just a bunch of vague generalities about the players. Odd. Possibly the match got delayed and they planned on adding in the recording later but it didn't get scheduled in time for airing tonight. | ||
