If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

Here too. It may be the mobile connection they use to stream it? (main stream perfect at 720p)

dApollo one of the few casters that obviously does research on players before he casts their matches (xHydrax on YT also comes to mind). mad respect! (why don't other casters do more of this??)


Apollo has the advantage (I guess) that he isn't just a caster, but also actually a rather active progamer, which I think does give him a advantage on having such information ready (from experience), but also on gaining such information (he is in a proteam from which he most likely can draw alot of information from and has alot of contact through this with other progamers and perhaps "whole" teams).

On top of that, he is rather new to the casting scene and I guess he knows his role as a caster, giving out insight not only of the tactical game from the progamers, but also in their history of matches, habits in that and alike.

From there on out it's just him being a super, and cute, good boy that will do his homework. ^ ^

That is my general take on it and I love him for it as well. xD


No idea if these advantages that I believe Apollo on this really is the reason why we don't see alot of other casters doing the same, just a theory.


It's got like almost nothing to do with being on a proteam, yes playing at a reasonably high level helps but that's not the reason he's able to know that MMA likes to do X in situation Y or Stephano does B in situation C. It's because he not only likes starcraft enough, but takes his job as a caster seriously enough to actually keep up and watch lots of events. There's no excuse for Doa to not know anything about how Stephano plays when coming to a tournament where he's heavily featured, just because he's in Korea. If Apollo can be aware of everything from euro tournaments to GSL to NASL/MLG, then someone who's meant to be a full time caster who only works like 3-4 days a week should be as up to date.

It's literally as simple as who bothers to put in the most effort.



Grimly, ia have to agree.
It's always refreshing when casters say things like "as XX likes to be reactor heavy in the mid-game, he does YY as preparation, resulting in.....".

Bad casters often apply general things to everyone, which is annoying.
the game is the game

They had to give zerg at least 1 of them.

So what are the odds on Lucky taking out MMA to complete his collection of wins vs Slayer's Terrans? I want to say zero but there's a tiny niggling thread of doubt in my mind that he might yet pull it off.

Dear future SC2 events, none of us really care about a good looking girl on stage introducing the match. This isn't UFC. Just let the casters tell us what's next.

Idra is hilarious. He oozes of ''I don't give a fuck''. :D I laughed just by watching him walk up to shake hands with Stc.
