Sure, they don't have to be the best, but if it's not up to a certain level, not even the greatest personality will save him/her. And if it's above a certain threshold, personality becomes irrelevant as well. (IdrA == Supermodel) But since most are in the middle of the bell curve, we judge them by other means, such as the ability to entertain us and how good they are in | ||

I prefer Artosis humor to day9's humor, for example (nerdy jokes > silly jokes), but that is just personal opinion. Furthermore, I'd like to note that some casters contribute more to the community and the scene than other casters, maybe that should also be acknowledged. | ||

People have different opinions. Some people like casters purely for entertainment value, others like game knowledge. Tastosis is typically considered the perfect duo because they have the best of both worlds. It would be easy to find a pro player who could sit down and robotically say what each player is probably thinking but nobody would watch that. Not true, lots of people love that shit. | ||

Also, they shouldn't pretend they have good game knowledge | ||

Tastosis is by far the best caster duo. You watch GSL games and they can explain the histories behind each player, the matchup regarding each players' strength/weakness and the map, the current metagame / new upcoming strategies, metagaming in series play, etc. (also, artosis is a cutie ) There's so much to learn but sadly most casters offer nothing but loud voices :T yep ^^ | ||

(Like the artosis cast of IdrA vs MVP on youtube. The explation of why he was doing it and why idra never releases reps and stuff gave a nice backstory.) | ||
