I'm with Cloud on the fact that some casters don't work hard enough. Many of them just appear at an event and start talking. It's no mystery why Artosis and Apollo are by far the best ones. Artosis just said he watches a lot of shit. I head Apollo even makes notes during games. Without caster bashing I can't say the negative examples but I think everyone can come up with a few.

This leads to what you always have in sports casting. You have the personality, the play by play guy and the guy whos been in the players position before and knows everything about the game.

If you have the personality + play by play guy in one, then its a win win. Kind of like Tasteless.

Oh! Talk about Vile dropping out of EGMC and their team rearranging. Also maybe about Illusion dropping Vile from his Twitter? *cough* EG Illusion *cough*

I know they said Day9 probably wouldn't do it, but if the money is good...


Day9 makes way too much money to ever take a permanent casting gig.


How much does he make?


Enough to make the Forbes Top 30 under 30 list


What's the crtieria to get on that list? im googling and cant find it

The criteria seems to be (correct me if I'm wrong) that they do exceptional things within their communities.

Not "makes large amounts of money"

I don't think any foreign caster, except Artosis (when he's not with Tasteless) and perhaps someone else I'm overlooking atm, comes anywhere close to the professionalism of the korean BW commentators. =/


I'd say Apollo is easily one of the best casters around. He actually researches all the players before the tournaments too
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

Thx so much Artosis for pointing out the obvious that korean casters are NOT better than foreign ones.

Artosis's rant about the Korean commentators is a bit misleading...
It is true that the casters DO get a script and it is based on statistics, their ranks, and the such.
But a lot of the commentary (definitely seen in BW in OSL/Proleague) is real because the 2 analysts are previous players such as Kingdom, TheMarine, and Shark, the knowledge they bring in are actual knowledge. The 3 team is with 1 color commentator and then the 2 analysts. So I hope that people who listened to Artosis don't just take it to heart. It's not all just scripts: They bring their own ideas into it.

And yes, Korean commentators still mess around. Those nerdy stories are given just as English commentators do. While I respect Artosis's opinions, I have to disagree with him this time :/
Need to write more things...
