Orb is a very irritating caster. His voice grates on the listener. However, his analysis is, for the most part, pretty good, and although he hypes up unnecessarily, it is good to hear casters get excited unlike some (JP...) who remain monotonous the whole time.

As for the games, the Idra vs Huk series was very entertaining, the conversation between the two of them was a good laugh and the play wasn't too boring. Machine vs InControl was certainly interesting... though the difference in skill between them and Idra and Huk became really apparent when watching the series one after the other. Still, a good watch, props EG. Hopefully we'll see DeMuslim vs LzGamer and Puma vs JYP soon!

Simply Godlike, something that EG will win no matter what!

~Orbs is a horrible caster and very, very irritating.

While Wochtulka might be right, I still think that Orb is a really good caster that can analyze the game as well as transport excitement to an audience. Making false predictions is actually something that many casters do. Once one has made such a prediction and even announced it aloud it will be harder to realize when the development of the game takes a different direction due to selective information processing (for example). That is not to say that one could not work on improving in such an area, I am just saying that it is a pretty normal thing to do.
Alternative strategies would be to admit that one was wrong which I would imagine to be more difficult if one is casting alone (vs. a duo) or not make predictions at all and just describing the game. But IMO the latter would result in quite shallow casting.
I don't mind if casters try to make predictions even when wrong. Such predictions guide attention to details which would otherwise not even be perceived, especially by a lay-person. Day9 does that aspect really well (describing how the game could unfold or will unfold from a certain point on and why).

I was really impressed with Orb's ability to solo-cast, which most people don't seem to realize is pretty challenging as a caster. I mean you don't have anyone to banter back and forth with. It is a lot more difficult to fill in the opening of a game. It's a lot more difficult to keep your energy up without someone to draw from. I'm happy with the set up so far.

I also thoroughly enjoyed the friendly/light-hearted spirit that the players kept in the matches. It was all about the fun of it and doing something for the fans, which is a great attitude to have.

Why not do Liquid vs Eg show match instead of giving us 1 watch-able game whose value largely depends on Idra's bm.

I actually like him, especially over some others that cast in the very same tournament. He doesnt grate on "the listener", he grates on you. There is a difference...

+1 on the analysis part though, he is obviously a very good player when he picks out certain things like that. I occasionally learn a thing or two from him as well, which is also a bonus for watching him.

Yeah, apparently we don't get those. Much like Inside the Game, you don't get to see it if its not live.
