If we compiled a list of all the things that casters say that piss people off and banned them all we'd be listening to would be the game sounds. This thread is a little ridiculous.

Not as much actual terms but more so when some casters turns the cast into some half-educational thing. In my opinion we are way past that and I'm not refering to small stuff like someone explaining some minor details but when the caster during the whole game is trying to educate the players instead of doing actual casting.

Another reucurring annoyance is the casters try to say what they think the player should have done or shouldn't done and say things like "I wouldn't have done that" and "I think that was a bad thing to do... I would have done -blank-."

Well the first thing that comes to mind is "blunder". It's really over used. Other than that I don't see much that is over used too much. However there are things that casters say that begin to annoy me but that's a whole different subject.

I really really didn't read the whole thread, but I want to complain about the "oh-oh"... I got so upset about this in the King Of The Beta finals... =P

And now it seems Tastosis are starting to overuse it...

So, if anyoine already talked about this, put +1 for me.

Any combination of two or more English metaphors/witticisms mangled together into an indecipherable mess.

"No kidding"

I am so tired of hearing tastless say that. It's his default response to artosis. Artosis can be like "Did you see that amazing single marine take out that whole 100 supply army! I've never seen anything like that!"

Tastless: "No kidding"

Then Artosis goes back to casting the game. The Artosless casting archon is still a pretty good duo imo though.

+ Show Spoiler +

Pointless text below

Wow I was trying to think of something funny to write and realized "No kidding" can be used as a response to anything.

Artosis: "Tasteless I slept with your mom last night."

Tasteless: "No kidding?"

Artosis: "I am your father"

Tasteless: "No kidding?"

Artosis: "My nose works as a great flotation device"

Tasteless: "No kidding?"

There are definitely some good suggestions in here... every caster has their "goto" words which you may hear more times than others. Why? Cause casting is fucking hard people.

If you don't believe me... I challenge you to just sit down and talk into a microphone for 8 hours. See if you can even do it. Then go back and listen. How did you do? Why don't you post it here for us to listen to. It's not like casters lack the vocabulary, it's that casting drains you mentally like you wouldn't believe. Seeing Day9 after casting every series at MLG... pretty much sounded and looked like he just walked off the short bus. ^_^

HOWEVER, just in case any other aspiring casters read this... HERE IS A GOOD TIP I TRY TO TEACH ALL THE GUYS I CAST WITH:

A good caster will occasionally go back and listen to his own work to identify the exact things JP brought up in the original post. When you find yourself using the same words or phrases over and over, then do yourself a favor and try this out.

Write down on a sheet of paper the words or phrases that you overuse. Under each of them, write alternate phrases. So for example, I might use the world "unbelievable" to describe something going on. So write down, "Phenomenal, Amazing, Astonishing, Awesome, etc." do the same with phrases or ways to phrase things.

If you are occasionally referencing this during your broadcasts you'll find yourself realizing it and quickly begin using your alternate words. I still do it today after 10 years of casting.


thanks for that advice wheat

When Artosis used to say " I'm all wiggly and jiggly ", I used to watch to turn off w/e VOD I was watching and go beat my face off the wall. Thank god thats over, it kind of ruined the TSL experience.
It's a big deal
Wishing you well.

This is a little more recent, but Artosis really likes his new phrase "tempo-based play".
