Hero looks nervous and has been epic failing in PvZ lately. I don't like his chances,but we'll see.

Hope HerO's nerves will hold


You guys really need to drop that crap.


It's all up to him to keep the team alive. It's Proleague. Why wouldn't that be a factor to mention?


Because it isn't a factor for him anymore and he knows how to deal with those situations better? You hear all the casters saying it because they have nothing better to say. It's redundant and it becomes irrelevant. It's like sex and violence. The more exposed you are to it the higher the dosage you need to get that same high. For HerO and his play he's found that numb state and can play his game more often than not. He's tried; tested; and proven.

Mostly true, but for some of these players proleague is litterally the thing they've been dreaming about since they were children. I don't know if this is true for Hero, but for many who were around, or growing up, in the BW era, this is something entirely different.

Their passion is more than enough to make up for it. Lol. It's just too bad my net can't handle their stream.

even their LQ stream is laggy for me. I don't think its your net.

So is keeping the probe there that important? I mean to make a full wall? I'd imagine the cannon is good enough insurance that Hero's safe at this point of the game right? Isn't that just a hit on his economy?

Guys, that's just the way HerO looks. He has another expression for stress/nervousness.

The worst thing about that GG shout is that there is literally no excitement... then suddenly "OH SHIT THE GAME ENDED LETS YELL GG AS LOUD AND FOR AS LONG AS WE CAN BECAUSE WE ARE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS GAME".

It reeks of fake excitement, and it's not even good fake excitement.

Also who is the guy with the lisp or w/e that sounds like he has a bunch of cotton balls in his mouth? He can hardly even speak let alone commentate a game.

agreed 100%
the casting is good but lacks any excitement


The casting is not good. They call things wrong a lot. SNM clearly just started watching SC2 recently and doesn't know anything about the meta game or even basic builds... and Whiplash just doesn't have the multi-matchup knowledge to carry the cast. Neither of them are able to say anything interesting about the games, they simply talk about what is happening on screen.

Most like to watch SC2 to either watch something exciting/interesting, or learn something new. These casters need to learn how to speak, and simply learn more about the game. They're both providing a level of commentary that could be provided from most diamond/master league players...

They're not funny. They're not exciting. They are not knowledgeable.


Agreed. Making matters worse, one of them (I can't tell which) has an apparent speech impediment, which I'm finding increasingly distracting. I'm not saying this to be a dick - it can be overcome, and the best example of someone I can think of who overcame a speech impediment to become a speaking superhero would be James Earl Jones - but when he speaks, I hear Mike Tyson instead.


Yeah.... I actually don't really mind the inaccurate statements or the lack of deep insight, bc I think that's expected for new casters and it can be improved upon, but SNM's way of speaking is just too grating.

Doing fine on HQ for me now, but before I was watching the English stream muted, and listening to the Korean stream on low Q. It worked fine, though was slightly desynced.

Whiplash has a bright future in casting if he continues to pursue it. Very clear and concise in his casting.

He sounds a lot like Draskyl, who is currently a Dota 2 caster.

You're correct. Slow ling runby is a pretty good early all in, so having the probe there lets the cannon fire at will and not allow the lings in.
Who's the bigger scrub, the scrub, or the scrub who loses to him?
