The blunder thing really needs to go. It's waaaay overused and it's somewhat a lack of respect for the players.

DOES. As in, He DOES make it out alive. He DOES break the contain, etc.
It's fine when you want to emphasize how good he played or how unexpected the play was, however casters use it instead of just using a normal verb all the time. He does build a pylon at 10!!!!

"Indeed" is something I hear constantly among casting duos.

"like" ("and like then he like like I know right, like when he like tried to like kill that banshee")
"decimated" (there are so many beautiful words to describe annihilation... this isn't one of them)
"nevertheless", "anytime soon" (Rotterdam; using it incorrectly, too)
"fall down" (it's just 'to FALL', I have no idea why people keep adding 'down', makes no sense)
"literally"

"materialising", "the great equaliser" (Mr.Bitter)
"more additional" (Rotterdam; use either, not both)

Haha really cool you're making a thread like this, shows some balls.

Also, HUGE EMP!

"We see ___ now going for the ___"

"There's the stim!"

"Huge/large amount of firepower" <-- Specifically TotalBiscuit

"I DON'T KNOW TASTELESS!" <-- Excited/nervous Artosis

"B-" - DoA, being interrupted by Moletrap (nah i'm kidding Moletrap's awesome)

If you really think about it though there's only so many terms you can use within casting though, so there's bound to be a lot of repetition, conscious or sub-conscious. I kind of enjoy it personally, as long as it's a caster I actually like. I don't care if Day[9] says "standard" or "normal" or "we're gonna start seeing some ___" over and over again, because it's an awesome style of casting and I wouldn't want him to cast any other way.

"All-in" When it's not an all-in. An attack or aggressive build doesn't mean its an all-in. Easiest way to tell if a caster doesn't know shit is when they overuse that term.

"And we have a [insert structure here] going down"

and I hate this but when commentators are speaking to each other

"How are you doing today [name] you are so handsome" overused by gretorp, but not discovered by, and many other JTV casters seem to be calling each other handsome.

oh, and it was OK I suppose when iNcontroL would say it over and over but "pivotal"(spelling may be way wrong I know) but I also noticed a lot of up and coming casters starting to use this. Come on people, gain your OWN personality, stop repeating what other accomplished casters say

*This isn't overused* but I love when TotalBiscuit is commentating on a tank using terran and he refers to the damage as "Shelling" when he says it I see TB in like a... tank... shelling away at something... weird visual but you know you see it now.
