One of the best casting duo in eSports right now. Anyone who says otherwise is clearly in denial.


Tastosis, day9 and djwheat, K9, day9 and apollo > total biscuit and apollo


I'd give some love to BitterDam as well. I think MrBitter and Rotterdam are two of the most underrated casters and one of the most genuinely entertaining duos out there. They have great chemistry with each other which is a very important trait to have when casting long shows where you have to be on all the time. Also, the "Grass..." show they just completed has really improved their casting of their off races as well and I feel that as they move through the Terran-centric show they'll become even more well rounded.

I don't want to be too down on TB and Apollo, it's just that there are a lot of really good casters out there and to try and put one above the other is really hard.


I didn't feel like writing out all the casting duos that are better, so i only put down 4. But yes, those two are good as well


That's fair enough. :D

1.) Play the game. Nothing annoys me more than someone who advertises himself as a caster, only to later reveal that he plays the game at a gold level. I'm sorry guys, but you have to understand the game if you're going to talk about it. As a caster, it is your responsibility to sell StarCraft 2 to your audience. A gold league player selling SC2 to an audience is asking to buy a Rolex on the streets in Chinatown.

Mr. Bitter


Look forward to the games nonetheless. GL TB.

The most professional casting duo out there. Though Tastosis are the most recognized, they lack commitment and professionalism compared to TB and Apollo. Great to have them cast Asus Rog.


I can't say I agree with you there. Especially regarding the "commitment" that Tastosis supposedly lack. Just wait until the "Sons of Starcraft" documentary comes out, then you'll see. I don't even know the half of it, but the stuff I do know about what they (Artosis especially) went through to get to where they are now is mind blowing. The anecdotes I've heard from the former BW players from America (on streams/shows etc) all speak to Artosis having gone through a lot to get to where he is. Sleeping on people's couches, floors etc.


TB and Apollo don't go on 5m ramparts talking about a lollypop they tasted in High School. This is what I mean about professionalism. Tastosis is the best outside the GSL (take their MLG Orlando or Blizzcon performances for example). In GSL I simply mute the cast the moment they get off topic, which is generally after 30s.


They go off topic ALL THE TIME except, unlike Tastosis, they aren't entertaining/funny at all. The fact you call them professional is really surprising, as their casts are some of the most unprofessional and sloppy casts I've seen when it comes to high level sc2 casting.I really dislike TB's casting, Apollo is a good analytical caster, but isn't very entertaining. And honestly, the off-topic discussions of Tastosis is why their GSL casts are much better than their MLG casts imo, I've seen and played through 1 rax expands a billion times, I'd rather listen to something entertaining rather than have the build explained to me for the 200th time.

Obviously this is all opinions though.

Apollo one of the best casters out there and a joy to listen to, tb is annoying, wish there was another.

Either way will be some fantastic games to watch.

Eh, I would've prefered djWHEAT to TB, even if it isn't as if I hate TB or anything. He works well with Apollo but I liked djWHEAT+Apollo combo more at IPL3.

great combo, though I'm still waiting for someone to make my wet dreams (apollo + tasteless duo cast) come true

completely agree, apollo is a competent caster, smart and strategic, totalbiscuit is just too much to handle for me personally, although he is very noob friendly, which i am not.

Never heard them together, but I adore TB for his unique style and I always enjoyed Apollo alongside Day9, so they can't be bad together.

Also, two Brits, so I won't have to hear the annoying American accent

Also nr. 2: stop shitting on our casters, regardless who they are.
Life is short, waste it wisely.

Really enjoy both of them and they do make a good duo so looking forward to it. Also would like to see if any of the TB haters can do better than him.

I, for one, enjoy some Biscuit&Apollo.

Also, why do these topics always end up comparing the casters and spewing hate.
It's cool, if you don't like them don't watch them, but why do we have to read it?

I can't come up with any caster about whom i would say "I can't stand him". I enjoy some more some less but they never take away from my enjoyment of the game. Do I have a high threshold or something? Or do other posters have it too low?

Easily annoyed posters are annoying.

Yay for Totalbiscuit! Apollo brings the analysis while TB brings the personality.
