I'd love to see husky paired up with some knowledgeable more "boringish" caster who could provide the tactical insight while husky provides the exitement. HD just isnt that guy. | ||

I think a lot of personal bias factors into caster preference. For example, Day9 is a little bit too nerdy for me(no offense, just an observation). It's hard for me to identify with him and his jokes. There are things that Day9 does(like the hearts or more recently the troll face), make me cringe. I do understand how it might amuse some other people though. Overall HDH's fans are mostly casual starcraft gamers and their casting styles reflect that. I'm a casual sc gamer myself; watching games with HDH casting feels like i'm watching the game with them, while with day9 i feel like i'm watching a game and he's telling me about it. A lot of people here seem to think that analyst = commentator. While they can go hand and hand, they are not both necessary. Personally i prefer to do the analysis myself and have the casters there to give a play-by-play or entertain. Imo HDH's mistakes don't warrant as much hate as they get. Day9 makes mistakes as well, like Select's player info or Whitra's name change info. But he doesn't get nitpicked as much, mainly because the TL community sees him as one of their own. With HDH the hardcore players see them as outsiders that are bringing in noobs,like me (: | ||
