Actually Wolf would be far down on my personal list as well, it's just with some of CatZ Tweets about Wolf and that almost 50% Root/Former Root caster power ranking having Wolf at the bottom with the only nice thing saying "He wasn't as bad as he usually is lately, hopefully he can keep that up." is pretty fucking rude to me. If he's within the top 19 casters, surely you can find a few good compliments to give the guy, he is a person with feelings and I bet reading that didn't feel very good.

so is catz a full time caster for MLG now? I hope not, for someone who shits so hard on Wolf he's doing a pretty mediocre job. I really hope he apologizes and begins to take it easier on Wolf in the future. God damnit dude. It was a cumulative ranking of what all the pros thought of casters. It was lots of Root and former Root players. CatZ and his friends basically. far from "All the Pros" as well, it was just a small handful. From the post: State Snute SHeth Socke Petreas Sasquatch Vibe Minigun Kane Harstem Miniraiser Babyknight Maddelisk Major Huk Suppy Desrow Scarlett Iaguz 13/18 werent root players. Unless I missed Snute, Sheth, Socek, Kane, hasrtem, Miniraiser, Babyknight, Maddelisk, Major, Huk, Suppy, Desrow and Scarlett all joining Root recently, I don't think it was just Root. Kane, former Root player, State former Root player, Sasquatch, Having 8/20 be Root Members or former Root Members, and lots of others being good friends with CatZ. It seemed like a group of friends picking their other caster friends as top. It looked like quite the popularity contest. I remember when I first read through it, saw the player list and instantly thought to myself "well, this will be pretty fuckin' biased." Can you please explain to me how it's possible to rank your favorite casters and NOT be biased? That literally the entire point of what they were doing.
The results looked exactly how you would expect a popularity contest between the casters go.

Just like how Terror probably doesn't like being railed on Wolf. Yeah he probably doesn't actually know about that but the principal is applicable to players too.

Also Wolf has called some players in PL and GSTL complete trash even when they were winning the game. Is that irony?

did major catch a fly with his mouth?

Haha is he watching the stream in the booth?

Crush him without mercy Stardust

Probably wouldn't even be on the list if Terror wrote it >.>

The critique is not of Wolf as a person, but of his performance in the capacity of a professional caster. He is a grown up, and in any adult, professional setting, if your performance is sub par, you have to accept that others will criticize your work.

I bet Major has some weaknesses :D

Major's weaknesses probably lie in his big army control, it's not always the best. He's great at multitasking and his decision making / macro is generally very good. He can't dodge storms though.

Could just type to him in the start "Ever thought of changing your nick recently? Major is getting pretty old."
And then he would be so unfocused trying to figure out a new ID you would get easy wins.

Pretty risky to cancel the stargate again.

Well that wasn't good from Stardust.

No open bracket coverage at all...
Team money well spent. Foreigners getting plenty of promotion and stage time while playing badly, everyone else slogging through the open bracket with no recognition. Well at least we didn't have to pay for flights since it's right before WCS, that's a plus I suppose.

Oh he's very smug and demeaning to some players (I've noticed it lots with Terror), there is no denying that. It's one of the reasons as I stated above that he'd be lower on my personal list as well, it's just when I read that power ranking they never called Wolf out on that. They said he states his opinion as fact and that he did better with Tasteless in GSL.
I would have rather had a few pros and cons, with a big con being his demeaning attitude to certain players.
It's not that Wolf was #19 on the list, in fact I think that's probably where I would put him too, it's just how each other caster on the list had a few good things said about them with a bit of their downsides while Wolf just got told he sucked at analysis, but he didn't completely suck that one time with Tasteless. His only compliment was a bit of a passive aggressive stab.
He should definitely be called out on his smugness though.

Yes, very painful. He can't put on pressure at all for a while now
