27:10 in Game 8 of GSTL1

http://www.gomtv.net/2011gstl1/vod/60831

I'm aware he had been casting for a while before that. A healthy fatigued voice is hoarse, yes. But not that hoarse.

I can't believe all the jobbers who are talking bad about Nick in this thread considering how much he spend his time casting and bringing us great games.

He does NOT take drugs. It's just smoking cigarettes. And it is not like he is an addict who has one stuck between his lips all the time.
Stop exaggerating things and making a big deal out of nothing.

And his voice is so husky and deep not because of smoking (though I make fun of him about it all the time) but simply because he has been commentating for so long.
It's called shout-casting for a reason and for a period of time his voice was so evidently strained.

TBH Nothing wrong with his voice now. Sure it is different but his voice is still AlmightyTasteless.

Old Bamboo: I'd switch to smoking hookah

-No. That kills your voice. Tried and tested more than 3 times.
Your voice dies if you are casting the next day and you do Hookah. Plus he doesn't like it lol.

Peace.



This quote needs to be posted more. Thanks kelly for the clarification.

They're actually talking about his voice on GOM's stream. They're saying because ofnall the shouting in his cast he did for GOM.

Is there a way to improve his voice though? or will he have to live with it forever?

wow, it sounds very different, but his new voice isn't bad or anything

that deepness and sometimes the gruffness present in his voice these days are fitting for a casters' job; you got to sound manly/epic/aggressive, etc. during intense parts of a match

this is all i could find. I used to know a girl who went to a 'voicologist' or voice therapist because her voice was going through what tasteless sounds like while growing up, but I couldn't find what that was.

Watching live right now, and it sounds very scratchy/throaty. Might just be sick or something, but remembered this thread and thought it was kinda odd.

He does like all Code A and Code S...always working that involved practically screaming is going to wear down your voice a little... It's fine.
Try another route paperboy.

He used to sound a lot more like Day[9], for obvious reasons. I think he really needs a small holiday. Not just because of his voice, but because he obviously works hard.

Smoking absolutely aggravated it. Smoking will cause inflammation of the vocal cords. Which I guess is not going to help his voice recover!!! Just a thought!!!

I don't think anyone would disagree with you there. Smoking definitely doesn't help. But after it from the man himself it's definitely not the central cause as to why his voice is the way it is.

I like the contrasting high and low combo of their voices.

Smoking may not be the main factor,but it definitely wont help his voice/health at all as time passes.

It is more from getting excited and shouting during tense moments than smoking
I wish people would quit bringing up smoking
