Of course this is absurd and a logical fallacy; you're insisting the casters did something they did not. They're certainly not listing everytime an overlord is made; to base an argument on hyperbole is asinine.

I find it quite interesting the SC2 community believes they be taught to play during casted games and completely disregard the casual fan-base; it's like some kind of neat form of nerd-asperger's.


How about you stop hiding behind the big words to make yourself feel smart and instead make an argument that makes sense.
If you're arguing that the "casual fanbase" watches games without any idea of what's going on and with no desire to understand what's going on then why have a commentator at all?


I believe my word-choice being your talking point can stand as my argument all on its own. I wonder what it's like - to insist someone follow my rules whilst simultaneously breaking them... and presumably not having the intellect to notice it.

In case you're lost, I'm referring to this:

"and instead make an argument that makes sense."

As it pertains to this:

If you're arguing that the "casual fanbase" watches games without any idea of what's going on and with no desire to understand what's going on then why have a commentator at all?

It appears you have yet to unveil the vastly complex system that is sports-commentary and what its purpose is.

Don't hurt yourself.


Now tell me why they have experts there to commentate games. Your logic is terrible and the only thing you're doing is arguing against me, not for your case.



The Dumbo-Genius duo-cast is tried and true since broadcasting began; the 'dumbo' is there to set-up more apt conversation with the 'genius' seamlessly between subjects. This is readily observable and widely agreed upon as the best way to divulge information to the audience without seeming contrived or even condescending.


In other words, the "genius" is there to explain what's going on. the "dumbo" is there to set the ground for the "genius" to get his knowledge across. So in other words, information should be brought across.
Now tell me what that "information" should be about in SC2. Strategy? Build orders? Seems pretty reasonable if you ask me, considering this is a strategy game.


Again - you seem in able to wrap your head around entertainment business and broadcasting strategy - no matter how simply I put it.

Really, the takeaway here is you should be glad this type of casting is coming to the scene; it means your game is becoming more popular. Or I suppose this could be some hipster douche-baggery insisting some kind of special right to the content because you're an expert at said content.

Oh.


I see that this account is purely to annoy people.


I can understand why one's intelligence, or lack thereof, being on display may annoy someone.


Your ad hominem is far below your ability to type words that make you sound smart.


It's some kind of art, at this point:

1) Insist your opponent is committing ad hominem

2) Immediately thereafter commit ad hominem

You can't actually be serious about this.
StarCraft 2 is a strategy game. If casters have no clue about strategies and decisionmaking, their casting isn't worth much. I don't need to be told that player X made an overlord. I want to know why he made an overlord.


Of course this is absurd and a logical fallacy; you're insisting the casters did something they did not. They're certainly not listing everytime an overlord is made; to base an argument on hyperbole is asinine.

Now tell me what that "information" should be about in SC2. Strategy? Build orders? Seems pretty reasonable if you ask me, considering this is a strategy game.


Again - you seem in able to wrap your head around entertainment business and broadcasting strategy - no matter how simply I put it.

Really, the takeaway here is you should be glad this type of casting is coming to the scene; it means your game is becoming more popular. Or I suppose this could be some hipster douche-baggery insisting some kind of special right to the content because you're an expert at said content.

Oh.


I see that this account is purely to annoy people.


I can understand why one's intelligence, or lack thereof, being on display may annoy someone.

In case you're lost, I'm referring to this:

"and instead make an argument that makes sense."

As it pertains to this:

If you're arguing that the "casual fanbase" watches games without any idea of what's going on and with no desire to understand what's going on then why have a commentator at all?

It appears you have yet to unveil the vastly complex system that is sports-commentary and what its purpose is.

Don't hurt yourself.


Now tell me why they have experts there to commentate games. Your logic is terrible and the only thing you're doing is arguing against me, not for your case.



The Dumbo-Genius duo-cast is tried and true since broadcasting began; the 'dumbo' is there to set-up more apt conversation with the 'genius' seamlessly between subjects. This is readily observable and widely agreed upon as the best way to divulge information to the audience without seeming contrived or even condescending.


In other words, the "genius" is there to explain what's going on. the "dumbo" is there to set the ground for the "genius" to get his knowledge across. So in other words, information should be brought across.

What if I changed mine to DarkLordLolly? I considered making that my KR account.

You can't actually be serious about this.
StarCraft 2 is a strategy game. If casters have no clue about strategies and decisionmaking, their casting isn't worth much. I don't need to be told that player X made an overlord. I want to know why he made an overlord.


Of course this is absurd and a logical fallacy; you're insisting the casters did something they did not. They're certainly not listing everytime an overlord is made; to base an argument on hyperbole is asinine.

I find it quite interesting the SC2 community believes they be taught to play during casted games and completely disregard the casual fan-base; it's like some kind of neat form of nerd-asperger's.


How about you stop hiding behind the big words to make yourself feel smart and instead make an argument that makes sense.
If you're arguing that the "casual fanbase" watches games without any idea of what's going on and with no desire to understand what's going on then why have a commentator at all?

I can understand why one's intelligence, or lack thereof, being on display may annoy someone.

So given that you believe that "one's intelligence, or lack thereof, being on display" is the case right now, you admit you annoy people with your posts? I think you know that those are not the posts that people like to see, which means you are kind of a jerk on purpose. Is there something else you want to get across with your posts? If yes, may I suggest you collect everything you want this thread to know in one single post instead of leaving traces of information shattered over multiple posts and pages. You can always edit if you forgot something

Anyone with "bro", "brah", "breh" or any variation thereof in their name automatically loses the argument before it's even begun IMO.
