Really makes me feel a lot happier as a starcrafter with all of our very fine casters and personalities. I mean, Day[9] puts this guy to bed. Agreed 100% that the hosts are terrible and have no stage presence nor do they come off as sociable or "cool". That said, Day9 isn't really a good host either -- he's good sitting down behind a table casting. Tournaments should try to hire people with actual broadcasting experience to host. Asking your current staff (and this includes casters) just makes your tournament look like a joke. Djwheat and JP are awesome guys, but they cannot conduct interviews, speak on stage, etc. without looking like fools. Day9's prize presentations from previous tournaments were also pretty facepalm worthy. The only tourney I really see doing it right is GSL: the female Korean caster lady acts like a stage personality would in any other non-SC event. | ||
