At least with Soul Trains they're not the only thing that's done. Most TvP nowadays ends up seeing whether or not the Protoss can get to storm and hold the SCV pull. | ||

Oh I didn't realise you were trolling. The joke's on me I guess.. | ||

Qxc maybe, from the little of him I heard him casting he seemed really enthusiastic (which is nice) but was constantly cutting off his co-caster (apollo it was?). His game knowledge was really good, that's for sure. though he's a player before a caster so it's obvious that the talking skills aren't there (tasteless for example is honey to any ear) I don't know about tod other than I actually like his casting. he did at good job at destiny I. I don't watch much of the non-korean scene to be frank. incontrol is also a very smooth caster who is nice to listen to. apollo, wolf, brendan, kaleris I dump into tier 3 casters. no offense, but I don't think i could do even half the job they do. they just aren't as good as the aforementioned casters.

Not really trolling. my views are obviously personal and subjective. so i'm not really wrong or right compared to you. i do feel however that my taste of casters is (in my subjective opinion) better than yours. | ||

They cannon rush them so in turn they get roach baned which in turn leads to the scv pull which leads to the soul train which leads to the muta base trade which leads to the 11/11 which leads the proxy gates which leads to the squirtle 2 base. It's a dark road to the bottom. | ||

I'd put him firmly just behind Artosis in the caster rankings, though Qxc is gaining on him. | ||

There's a difference between being an idiot (someone who is stupid) and someone who is ignorant. Someone who just started starcraft 2 because he heard that there was this amazingly vibrant Korean scene is going to understand what the fuck is going on very easily if he listens to tasteless. Someone who has very basic knowledge of starcraft is going to have a blast listening to tasteless and artosis. They're the perfect mix for the casual to hardcore viewer. They aren't going to go into the top 2% of players who have a very high understanding of the game, there isn't enough time during a game to cater towards them. So they're the best possible mix. You're incredibly arrogant to call a casual viewer a dumb idiot. @miniwheats, idk just don't like apollo all that much. that's just personal views. he's definitely better than the other names listed there though, i guess? | ||
