ogn stream is so much better than gom, despite artosis.

Slightly better quality, worse casters (imo) and black bars around the video. I would vote for the GOM to be better.

saying "scv" and "colosseus" is much cooler.

Why is Korean in quotes and why shouldn't they cast in their language?

Its not as exciting, I feel.
stating "gun sol ro buh te" and "guh shin" doesnt have the same flow to it as saying colosseus and scv.


I don't know if you are aware but there was actually a pretty big controversy immediately after SC2 came out from Korean audience who were used to SC1 and said the exact same thing.

To be frank, the translations to korean seemed kind of... lazy. Racecars and firebears, anyone?


heh. I agree some of them could use some change but I guess you just have to admit that you can't satisfy everyone when it comes to something like this.

Is this coming from a native Korean speaker who is mostly immersed in Korean speaking culture? Or a person outside of Korea, mostly immersed in English speaking culture, who understands Korean? I'm curious because I don't understand Korean so I have no real context. My feeling is usually that I don't like it when cultures become "westernized".



A lot of Koreans were vehemently against using Korean names when SC2 came out because they said it sounded "cheesy." I guess if you could call it the effect of being "westernized," but I think it's just resistance to change like anything else.

Well, I don't know a single German caster that uses the German unit names.

I think it just made sense for BW because of the lack of Korean translation. I guess the population is probably small, but I was thinking that it would be a strange barrier for Koreans who weren't very aware of BW, but want to get into SC2, to be trying to understand references to units that they don't see when they play the game.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

still...they could have done better at least..
feels like they gave the english names to the korean translators and they tried to find the closest relevant word that fits the description, and when they couldnt find any, they just gave the name of what the unit looks like.

FYI, Wolf and I were actually supposed to solocast as well but decide to come in on our own time and provide a dualcast instead for you #WCS

judging by this, it seems all 4 gom casters may have been scheduled for solo casts today, but wolf and khaldor went for the double work, because they are that passionate; i wouldn't blame tasteless if he just went along with the schedule
