Instead of trying to make the best of a bad situation it is noticeable that he didn't want to be doing that, so why does he even cast anymore? The casting really added to the shit-fest of the game, and it's supposed to bring up a bad game, not add to the bad. If I were forced to cast such shit game I would just stop it and laugh at them when they finally lose all casters -.- | ||

This wasn't a 3 hour game, and the casters for that game did a much better job. Not to mention that game didn't have nearly as much engaging as this one did. Firecake literally spread the map with spores/spines and Mana couldn't even move anywhere, so they were just sitting on opposite sides of the map not doing anything. Mana would shoot at a Spore for 30 minutes while Firecake just transfused and abducted 1 unit and MaNa would retreat and work on another spore. It was 30000000 times more boring. And those casters at least did a good job of staying interested and trying to give the fans something to think about or a reason to be interested in the game. But iNcontrol did none of that and was pretty unprofessional if you ask me. | ||

As a commentator, it's your job to be enthusiastic and engaging. As they say, even if you are commentating a sack of potatoes, a caster finds a way to make it exciting and fun. No DK need to realize that nearly everyone is highly bored about ZvP Lategame. the best promoting is if the caster shows that they are bored too. | ||

That's how the game is and Jaedong should know that and do what needs to be done or not play the SH turtle style. I'm the biggest JD fanboy but I hate every single one of his SH games. A hyper aggressive player like JD prob dies a little inside every time he has to play SH. | ||
