not really because I honestly can't see a scenario where one carrier might be a better choice than 2 voidrays. Carriers are crap, because voidrays do the same tasks, just better!

Why is that? because SOTG hosts are notorious for never having questions or comments for the guests. Do you think Tyler and Incontrol are going to ask the best questions to Nestea? Okay, do you think you'd get better questions from Artosis and Day9? no offense to the other guests but when you have one of the best zergs in the world on your show, it would be nice if you have other good zergs or at least high knowledge casters to really enrich the whole experience.
So we won't get Artosis-level questions. Fine. I still don't think it is pointless. I'm sure the guys have some smart pre-made questions. Might as well watch and see?

Hope he starts showing up again, because he brings some good balance to the show.
Day9 is the CEO of his own company and doing a ton of shit for both that and other tourneys/casting/development of the scene. If one thing had to break out of everything he does, and it was SOTG, then why are we complaining? It's not like SOTG is broken without him there. He's great, but not podcast-breaking great.

I completely agree, Day9 is not the main reason i watch SOTG so if he is busy with other things then so be it. And since he does a ton of fantastic work for the community I can't really blame him for changing his priorities.

inControl will ask decent questions, though Artosis is really missed for guests like this.
It does seem like Day9 has missed a ton of SotG lately. But the Daily is how he pays the rent so that's what he prioritizes. Based on his last tweet he'll probably be getting home from the airport around the time that SotG starts or just after. It would be cool if he popped in late, even if just to plug his Red Bull Lan thing and if he had to bail to prepare for the Daily after.

They need to screen the call ins to get good questions, somehow. If they are like the Australian guy call ins are great.

Hope he starts showing up again, because he brings some good balance to the show. To be honest, I don't think Day9 would bring much to the show any more. I don't see him having much of a connection to the hardcore (silly word, but its the only one I can think of) SC2 crowd any more. His analytical skills have dropped off considerably and he doesn't even seem to follow the latest trends any more, I see him more as a Husky type community person. Good for the community, but for SOTG I'd rather have Artosis because he is constantly keeping up with the game, the scene and its development.
Stating opinion as fact sounds like a good idea.

Also, great layout for this episode :D

I couldn't stop laughing when i saw 5 carriers with +1atck (or had +2 finished?) get torn apart by 0-0 corruptors over cannons. Talk about a 1A solution. The counter to carriers is just laugh and kill them any time in the next 5 to 7 minutes.
