This is his Reddit profile - http://www.reddit.com/user/XRaDiiX - He's got minus 300 comment karma, that's an impressive number. He also stalks the shit out of my Reddit posts and flames me every chance he gets, AND stalks our mapmakers Twitter's and tells them how he sucks cause he's a masters Zerg. NO ONE should EVER pay ANY attention to that guy. He is the kind of person that makes me wish Reddit banned trolls  ! | ||

This is supposed to be a strategy game, and high level too, we are constantly reminded of it. So why have a caster who knows less than most of the audience and adds nothing, just states the obvious and points out the supply now and then (the bad casters usual crutch). I bet if you took away obs mode the casting would be even more wrong. Unless we state our disapproval nobodies going to enact a change; saying no criticism is just avoiding the issue. And please nobody come up with the excuse 'it's for the players with lesser knowledge' because somebody simply telling you whats happening is no more noob-friendly than any other caster. It's just a detriment onto my enjoyment frankly when we have big money tournaments with top level players and then this over the top of it. If you are not giving ANY analysis in the cast of a strategy game then what is the point? | ||

I was asking for something specific such as, "he started off well, but Elfi did some amazing shit and outplayed him," or, "HuK wasn't feeling good that day but played anyways," or, "HuK just wasn't HuK in those games...." or, "Elfi is a very underrated player, a lot of people believed he would take down HuK." Specifics please :/ | ||

I don't rely on SC2 for my income at all, that's why I can afford to give most of it away in tournaments. While this is true in terms of views your sc2 related content gets, I imagine your subscriber count has steadily risen for the last year or two, and it's quite likely that at least some of that is due to your sc2 casting. You probably know this, so it's a bit silly to keep framing that in such a simplistic manner. Perhaps dedicating more time to other content would offset that growth, but still | ||
