Just arrived from work and I was wondering if IdrA explained why he doesn't play TSL qualifiers. Someone can enlighten me ?
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

I get the feeling Ret doesn't share Idra's feelings for ZvT most of the time, anyone else get this vibe?

Chill out people, no Naniwa wont cast any games. He would be horrible at it and I think he realize that.

And although I find it kind of interesting to listen to Idra and Ret talking about the game it is fairly obvious that neither of them are used to do casting. Or more Ret then Idra but still. When you listen to Idra and Ret you realize what caster like Husky and TB brings to the table.

Exactly. I do feel that either one of them would work great when you pair them with someone that has solid play by play casting. Their analysis is very good (at least on their own matchups) but they lack the ability to "hype it up".

I'm quite happy that no one has been cheesing early game at all and want's to try the macro oriented games.

I think it's kinda interesting how last qualifier was presented by two of the most exciting casters, and today is two sober, analytical players casting. Big study in contrasts. I really enjoyed yesterday's cast especially though, I think Husky9 is fine analytically and I love when casters have such passion. But I think IdrA and Ret know so much that they're almost making up for it.

I love how we've been able to play around with the TSL4 qualifier casters.

Killer don't look that great at ZvT to be honest.
It's really not optimized play...

I get your point, but to be fair a hyping type of caster should at least be able to tell what's going on without making major mistakes.
Or at least know that when two supply-even armies face off you should check the upgrades before calling it a fair battle.

Hype is important but... I mean, am I the only one who finds weird for a guy who earns enough money to live with this job not to be well prepared?

Yeah, I agree, and that's why I think casting trios with 1 play-by-play and 2 very analyical casters are the best combination. We need to move from casting duos to trios

Yeah.. No offence but that's probably the worse ZvT i've seen in quite a while.

I think Killer is taking this game actually! Feels like Beasty's ecnomy gets hurt too badly atm.

I have a hard time with the fact that killer has such a bad macro.. But he is in top 4, so I guess he knows what he is doing?

Does Killer have some kind of handicap that doesn't let him go under 1k minerals ?

Yes, not the best game from him, but I've seen him play much better. I'm assuming he's tired because of all the games.
