just focus on calling what you see :/ That's the difference between playbyplay (which people often whine about) and analytical casting. The problem is, analytical casting really doesn't sugarcoat fuckups from either player. khaldor is not an analytical caster, he doesn't know the game nearly good enough to be in that role Is this because he's saying things you don't like or because he's saying your preferred player is going to lose? He's a decent analytical caster, not quite up to the Artosis standard but he's definitely not bad. are you saying this because i said something you dont like or because your preferred caster is not getting positive feedback? I disagree on the decent analytical caster, but I'm not going to change your mind I guess  No I'm saying what I'm saying because your comment is coming directly after a solid cast from Khaldor in which he calls out in no short order a fan favorite for incredibly obvious lapses in macromanagement and decision making. There was nothing about any of his casts from this series that warrant the original comment you made about him. If you're making a general comment about a perceived lack of game knowledge then I sincerely recommend you try YOUR hand at casting so we can hear what yours sounds like. I can say sincerely from personal experience that talking shit about a caster is much easier than actually doing it yourself. so in order to hand out criticism you need to be better than the one you are criticiting? in that case, this forum would not have a single post 
Considering you're using an appeal to authority fallacy I figure it'd be appropriate to use it on you. Happy now?

What was confusing to me is that Wolf and Khaldor were talking about how good Roro is. Fantasy didn't even have to macro and he was still beating Roro until Brood Lords came out.
That was an ugly series.

I agree, the competition in SC2 thus far has been completely retarded good on fantasy showing us some non-retarded games for once
The competition in SC2 really has been retarded thus far. But this games didn't change anything though...

seriously, fantasy made lots of mistakes and had really poor macro. He didn't deserve to win this game at all, not that Roro played well but he definitely played better. I really dont see the problem here...

Now I'll just have to take this other dude's advice. LOL.

Ultimately, I have to concede that was terrible. I really wonder what happened in his head to cause him to play like that, but I hope it doesn't persist. As long as this loss doesn't affect his PL performance, I give zero shits anyway.

He was never actually beating him.
Regardless of what casters might have you believe at times, killing drones does not always equate to killing Zergs. Roro was in control of that last game from start to finish.

Funny that Rain and Bogus are the ones keeping KeSPa somewhat relevant. There are way more than those 2 keeping KeSPa relevant, whether you like it or not.
Not really. Talking about the big BW guys.
FlaSh is kind of decent, nothing impressive
JaeDong, Bisu, Stork, Fantasy are all not any good, are they? They are rather laughable.
Rain is the player that can consistently beat top players, and Bogus looks at least promising.

User was warned for this post what is this notion that we do not apparently understand? Where people could play bad macro vs players with perfect macro in BW because they could task those players on different fronts. In SC2 macro has to perfectly lined up with anything you do otherwise you will fail. So players who had tendency not to prioritize macro but aggresive play in BW like Fantasy will have to prioritize macro play before anything else.
