Not for SC2 imo. I don't like his industrial casting voice and tone. | ||

Even though he has very limited knowledge of the game he made it work by asking Idra or Jorgen what they see going on strategy wise. A hundred times this. A good caster does not need to understand 100% of the game, he is there to hype up and provide the tone to let viewers who aren't so knowledgeable of the game get into it. He provides the professionalism as well as the unbiased PoV. For in-game knowledge, he refers to the expert by his side, which Idra did really well in providing tactical analysis as well as possible strategy forecast from a Progamer PoV. Jorgen lacks the interest factor and his voice needs to be more confident/lively to show the passion/interest that Idra displays. To top it off, he is capable of translating Korean (not too sure how good he is, but he seems competent in conversational Korean), that reduces some seconds off translating and possibly lets GomTV has more advertising time in the future. (should there be any foreign interest) In my personal opinion, I think Jason+Idra did better than Tastosis, I didn't cringe at jokes and mute the sound even once throughout their casting. Not that I think Tastosis did bad, but I think Jason Lee will be a better choice in the long run. | ||

His yelling at anti-climatic situation just makes me feel awkward. | ||

The fact that IdrA was there to provide the knowledge was helpful, but IdrA, surprisingly enough, seems to really lack some knowledge of the non-Zerg races. I almost face palmed when he said "Wow, that's a really fast second gas" during the very typical gate-gas-core-gas build. Fortunately, there were a ton of Zerg matches. Typical in early beta and release, but honestly, a lot of newer builds are getting second gas later because there's really no reed for the amount you get if you throw assimilator down right after core. Greg was right in pointing this out, because it's usually indicative of heavy gas tech plays, like dt's or double phoenix. Otherwise it's not really needed. Gas after core was standard for a while, and still might be in lower levels of play, but it isn't among pros, from what I've seen. | ||
