The third and last person is a troll. How the fuck do you get "so much immotivated hate" from these three comments, one of which was completely meaningless? Not even the one who criticized Day9 claimed he should step back, he merely stated why he doesn't enjoy the daily or Day9's casting as much as he used to. There's a big difference between constructive criticism and hating. | ||

I personally find his quirky attitude humorous, and not boring. I can't stand boring casters.... | ||

I mean, for a person that even has problems doing duo casts because he wants all the attention for himself, being one of four or five isn't really ideal. I know I'd be happy if he was replaced with someone who is actually interested in the game and has enough guts to speak his mind about things and doesn't see himself as a little bit better than everyone else. im not going to even bother commenting on your other posts or try to argue with u about this subject, but its obvious u have no idea or clue about anything day9 does. so on that note i suggest u stop commenting about something you know nothing about. the underlined bolded sentence in particular lets me know how ignorant you are. day 9 has litterally dedicated his entire life FULL TIME to starcraft 2. he lives, sleeps, and eats this game just as he did with BW. to say he "isnt interested in the game" is the most ignorant thing you can say about day 9. get a clue, and if you cant get a clue then just shut up and not spew utter BS and lies about a person. i mean u can not like the man, but dont spread slanderous lies about him or act as if he isnt interested in the game. i cant beleive someone would even say he isnt..... day 9 is one of if not the most passionate person u can find about anything starcraft related. Well, it's just that everytime a tournament other than one has actually casted comes up, he has never ever watched it and cannot comment on it. He didn't know about the units of HotS either. To me, that is not a person that seems very interested in the game. I mean, I watched his dailies back in the BW days and enjoyed them. Then the whole thing turned into some kind of clown show. It's more a show about himself now than a show about the game, like it used to be.

Why do you feel the need to deride everyone that doesn't like the same things as you do? Maybe people don't like to hear a guy shout and scream for an hour. | ||

So true, I loved how analytical he was in the BW dailies and how spot on he was on his judgements, hell even his old audio podcasts were marvelous and very insightful. But now unfortunately, he has shifted his attention from the "higher up players" who wanted to know the little things that made the players get that extra .3% edge over their opponent to those who struggle with macroing and remembering when to make that supply structure/unit. Hell to be honest, whenever I want to watch a daily I just watch one of sean's old BW dailies where he actually seemed to know his stuff and apply that to sc2 (Which is a damn shame because only 10 BW dailies outta like, 70 were actually reuploaded to blip....). I'm not sure if its lack of actually being good at the game like he was in BW, or if its just that hes trying to appeal to a wider crowd but he seems to lost his "spark" he had when he was doing BW dailies. | ||

Then the whole thing turned into some kind of clown show. It's more a show about himself now than a show about the game, like it used to be. I'm pretty sure Day9 watches other tournaments. I remember him streaming while watching IPL3. A lot of people don't watch stuff live. Some people don't even watch them a week after they're done. I remember a couple of weeks ago Artosis and Tyler didn't even watch Dreamhack Valencia a week after it was done. And like I said before, what could he have said regarding new units? A lot of analysis regarding units was already done last week, all that's left to say is whether you like it or not. He liked arc shield cause he found it absolutely hilarious (and rightfully so, cause that thing's stupidly funny) and the Oracle for the idea behind it. It's not like he was with Destiny or Tyler the entirety of blizzcon and had free time whenever to play test a few times. He was busy casting the tournament/behind the scenes at the RTS area. Even Artosis wasn't clear about some of the more finite details of some of the new units and mechanics. Out of the hundreds of hours he's done on Daily's (not including Funday Mondays or the one or two Q&As), about half an hour of all that footage was fooling around. And then daily#100 which was entirely about his starcraft career. Otherwise, he's usually insightful regarding pro play in his dailies. And why shouldn't he put a little personality in his broadcasts? Which caster/player do you know who's extremely popular but remains completely serious about the casting/playing and whatnot. Idra's popular because of his personality (and skill), Huk is popular because of his personality (and skill), Destiny is popular because of his personality, InControl is popular because of his personality, Tyler is popular because of his personality, Husky completely eclipsed HD (who decided to take a more serious and personally distanced style of casting) because of his personality. And finally, how can you say that someone who decides to forego looking for a job right after he gets his degree, in order to work on SC2 full time. SC2 is his job now, he depends on the game and the scene to pay his rent and for his food. You can't say he's not interested in the game if he makes that sort of decision. Or you can. He's not interested; he's completely devoted. | ||

I had kind of hoped the SotG hosts would have had some more inside information on the Brood War players possibly switching over to SC2. I thought it was a pity that Artosis wasn't there to talk about it, since he's probably most attuned to this. I hope they cover it again sometime. | ||

Sure, he'll lose some of the old viewers by this focus shift away from high level play, but he's gained a lot of new fans in SC2 as a result. Good on him, I say. I'm glad he succeeded in sticking around as well as he has. | ||

Is it ok if I have contributed a lot to another community? For how long will my opinion hold when I have contributed as much as Day9 to the community? I don't know who cares, I know I don't. Do you? No I don't have any suggestions since I don't care. Yes but the amount of playtesting he did seems to be very limited as his knowledge of the units seemed to be lower than someone that has only read about them on the forums. Also he didn't say shit about them. Can you tell me his opinion on the Battle Hellion, or the Warhound, or the Tempest? Because he takes the spot for someone else that could be more fun. Also I presume he gets paid for it, and I was curious as to how they solve that when he constantly leaves halfway through. Just curious, that's all, since it's not my business. Well, it is his job. I don't commend other sports casters that travel way more than Day9 does for their dedication or busy schedule or whatever. Am I supposed to think "Oh my god, that guy actually went all the way to Madrid to cast El Clasico, what a trooper!" when I'm watching football? I commend people for doing a good job, not for doing their job. Okay. You're free to suggest a cast to me where you suspect Day9 spoke less than his partner and I will time it out and present the data. Day is the kind of guy who really thinks about what he says. I'm pretty sure he doesn't care about the units because they are not done yet and can't be discussed because of that. You see? He thinks, that's something you do not. Also, Day is one of the funniest guy there in the SC2 community. Just watch him playing amnesia, saying "thinderbox" every god damn second. | ||

Ok, in any event it's pretty hard to argue that Day9 doesn't care about the game since he does a daily about it every day so I might have to give up here. It just seemed a little strange to me that he never ever has watched any tournament they are supposed to talk about. And like I said before, what could he have said regarding new units? His opinion, like all the others did.

No. He screams and shouts and tries to make jokes literally all the time. And why shouldn't he put a little personality in his broadcasts? I don't know. Who are you arguing against? I don't remember seeing anyone say that personality is bad. But I guess it's easier to argue against opinions you pretend I have instead of opinions I actually have.

I didn't know insults like these were allowed on these forums. Yes, I know he can repeat words in a very loud voice all the time. Very funny. It certainly goes hand in hand with your "thinks before he speaks" comment. | ||

 As for the episode, I am extremely disappointed that idra was so positive and reasonable when talking about the HotS units  Great episode anyway. Idra and Destiny are always good additions. | ||
