I've been watching his channels for four years now. Moletrap is a great caster who has a great ballance between serious discussion and colorful comments. His broodwar casts are the only ones I still watch and I think unsurpassed while his starcraft 2 knowlage isn't perfect yet he's catching up very fast considering he didn't start playing the game until after the beta was over due to not being able to aford a good enough computer.

I remember listening to moletrap cast from his car in his uni carpark leeching their wifi because he had no other option.

That is dedication!

Good luck dude <3

that's a fact of life, but i think the guy who said this didn't play bw or care about it much, bw supporters will ofcourse have more love for oldschool people, and be willing to overlook possible shortcomings coz of it (aka tendency to be more subjective)

Cholera got me into Sc:BW right about when he started casting. Super sick that some old-school greats are coming back to the limelight.

I don't like the idea of casters being noob at the game they are casting. Not to knock on him and a lot of the other casters people here are "supporting." Yes, they're entertaining because they talk about other shit during their cast, but they don't actually talk about the mind-games and strategies like you would see Artosis do. Something which requires deeper knowledge of the game.
I don't see him being GSL material.

Yeah? then I guess Tasteless isn't good enough for you either. Do you really know who you are calling a noob? There's really very few casters that have the same knowledge as Artosis has. Moletrap learns more as he casts and keeps playing. You can't expect him to know as much shit as artosis, who's played since the beginning of the beta. If casting is moletrap's future fulltime job, I'm sure he will put time into Starcraft 2 so that the lack of knowledge won't be a problem for you.

I was thinking of writing a similar post, but then I wondered, why settle for second-best. Artosis is the fucking man at SCII commentating because he loves the game enough to commentate all the time, then play the game in his free time. All we have to do is find people who love the game as much as Artosis oh shit.

Haters gotta hate, but I will just say this in my defense.. I would treat a job more seriously than I would treat a hobby, and I hope that people don't rely on old biases which may be or may become obsolete.

Anyway, nothing is set in stone yet, but as a brood war progamer would say, I will practice hard to show my fans good games!


Best of luck man, no doubt you wont be needing it though!

I've been a big fan and a subscriber of your youtube for 5+ years now, and I'm really excited that you're finally getting a chance to break into a bigger SC2 stage. A lot of the old school casters were tossed aside once we switched over to SC2, and I would be ecstatic if you were given an opportunity to show your stuff to the new generation of SC fans.

dude you are a fucking baller man,don't listen to naysayers.Do your thing man,If your in,great,if not,go to the OGN studio look at the guys right in the eye and say "I want to be an English BW commentrator,please hire me!"'

lol that would be fun if you did though.

but I'm honestly 101% sure that you would get the job.

also for those who doubt moletrap,his love and dedication for starcraft is greater than Artosis and Day[9] combined.his knowledge and understanding of game is great and is easy for him to pick up stuff.

Interesting! I'm all for GomTV getting a comprehensive look at their Code A applicants. Congrats for making it to the second (I guess) round of the selection process.


Is there a video of Moletrap casting SCII out there somewhere, to see what his casting style and knowledge of SCII is like?
