I think they did a lot of work that had a lot of benefit to the community during the beta, but I honestly can't stand them as commentators. =/ | ||

ANd I'm glad the "brilliant" has gotten less frequent. I knew it was too much when Day9 said "he is in a BRILLIAN position" | ||

Like, really, chrono boosting probes for economy? I thought it was for a fucking probe rush, chrono is such a proskill and you never see it Having approachable commentary isn't a bad thing, this kind of attitude is going to scare people away from the game as a sport. How many people at home who are really really in to grid iron or basketball hate the TV commentators and think they say idiot stuff? - I'd bet a lot. Give them a chance, they are all learning as it's an evolving game and a new skill which is pretty rare, it's not like there's a long history of video game commentators. When you think about the professionalism shown for example by all the commentators at MLG and how new this is, really we should be impressed more than anything, just be patient or hell, accept perhaps there's going to be one high skill commentator and one mid skill to appeal to the masses. If I could make one criticism, Husky needs to just relax a little bit, slow down and not constantly constantly talk, including overtalking. (at least he's making less jokes than he does on his YTube feed) Patience is a virtue. | ||

Day9 is just so likeable, and everyone loves Day9 but when things get truly exciting i feel HD does the absolute best job of conveying his excitement so it feels sports like. I definitely disagree with this. Even as just a sports-esque commentator, I don't think he sounds confident enough with his vocabulary. He stumbles over things a lot. TotalBiscuit is, in my opinion, a lot better for sports-esque commentary. | ||

Color: Day9 Perfect combo, Day9 has a pool of knowledge and is very likeable, HD has a good voice and oozes proffesionalism, turns it up when its exciting. Color commentators are also the funny ones, usually they bring that little extra entertainment to the game. | ||
