When the casters are not believing or being biased against a player I'm cheering for it just makes me cheer louder when they win. That's for fans who are already in the scene, and have an account on TL, ofc they won't leave just by that. But for those super casual fans, such as someone's girlfriend, they will get annoyed and go watch LoL or other things for a while. | ||

BO win in preparated matches are important too. I mean it's not like he did that randomly, he prepared for the map and it happened to be a very good idea. | ||

Once again this is all my opinion but I've been out of the E-sports world for a while and recently come back to watch some games but when I left it seemed like e-sports was growing (not saying its not still) but I think more professional level casting helps. I know it's hard to find it though. What's non-professional about it? please elaborate. | ||

MKP avoiding MvP would be funny. But really hope MvP makes it out. So hoping for MKP to advance and then eternal draws with Keen vs MvP, so they let both advance. | ||

I havent had that experience with anyone I've met in the esports scene or any of my friends who watch Starcraft with me casually. What's known as "color" commentary in Sports is good for the entertainment value even if it comes off as biased. This is why Charles Barkley gets such high television ratings, this is why Jeff Van Gundy is one of the main commentators for ESPN during basketball games. People prefer exciting commentary that creates or amplifies drama and excitement over bland and politically correct commentary. Sports has taught us this over the years at least in the American market. The only detriment is when the color commentary has no balanced analysis to go with it, and in the case of Tastetosis they have some of the best analytical commentary in the business that more than balances out their color commentary. That's why they're the best. They create drama which creates excitement for the viewer but their analysis is on point as well and that careful balance is hard as hell for a casting duo to have. | ||
