And not to mention GSL. I would bet my money for ragequit at that 2nd game against that void-ray proxy if it wouldn't be that big of a event.
Tho, i don't care how he acts. He plays amazing, thats all i want to see.
However, i´m sad that you are not on Arenacast anymore, and when you are not around they don´t release as many episodes anymore. Good thing is that i´m interested in both wow and sc2
I think PsY should get a lot more respect actually. His commentaries show high level play (he plays against top ranked players in NA) and he does it from the perspective of the average gamer, including the funny outbursts and shenaningans with his roomates, cats and gf which are common parts of all our gaming personas.
In short, Psy is the man and should be given a lot more credit for his awesome contributions.

I don't think anyone is discrediting him. I ,for one, love his Youtube channel. It's just that a couple weeks ago they were saying how they needed some Zerg insight and so they get Psy to do it. But then they also invite one of the best SC2 Zerg players in the world on the same cast, making Psy kind of redundant on this episode.
I hope Psy can be on the cast as a regular I am sure idrA may not be able to do it as much as idrA but otherwise I must say the podcasts is really good and is right now the best Podcast for Sc2.
The more hardcore the cast the more I like them. Casual podcasts have never been my thing no matter the game.
My picks right now in order are:
SoTG (incontrol is great on here) The Elitist (always good interviews) Starcraft late night (techinical guys that like to talk about the game) The Creep (more casual but not as casual as say Starcast)

You are right. What I meant to say was that I felt that people thought PsY`s input was not important since IdrA is there and well, he`s a progamer. But the fact is I think PsY is a better reference for the average player since I believe he is more in touch with what the majority actually experiments while playing the game. In this respect, I think his opinion is very valuable, and to a certain extent, more entertaining and down to earth than what IdrA could provide as a regular contributor. He also targets a an older crowd which makes it more entertaining thans say other more politically correct casts.
Overall, I think he is the most entertaining of all the casters out there, by far.
I'm aware of the issue right now on iTunes with Episode 1, 2, 5, 7, and 9 not downloading. I'll try to fix this within 24 hours. Please no more PM's regarding it
I'm a huge PsY fan boy but I'd love for you to reinvite him. I really think that the only reason he didn't talk much was because he was accompanied by one of the top 5 Zergs in the world.
