Also, is it just me or does it seem like he is a complete dick to Doa? | ||

Moletrap either: -talks over the top of DOA -completely ignores what DOA says I feel a bit sorry for him as it is quite apparent at times that he has to go back into his "shell" a fair bit because of the way Moletrap likes to take control. That being said, DOA you make terrible jokes man T_T | ||

That being said, DOA you make terrible jokes man T_T One of these days his puns are gonna give me brain cancer. Still love the guy though, he tries hard (albeit a bit too hard) and it seems like he legitimately likes to commentate. I think Moletrap is a bit overpowering because he obviously has a lot more experience in the casting scene but I think they are starting to gel a bit. Moletrap also has a bit of fanboy syndrome which is completely understandable considering he gets to cast people like Nada and Boxer after being such a huge BW fan. And to be fair, who wouldn't love to cast Boxer? | ||

Kelly was average to sub-average. DOA is ok. Moletrap's style of casting is annoying, and I don't like his voice. | ||

I'd say Excellent Excellent Good(Used to her casting SEA cups pre-GSL, that and i don't understand at all why people complain about her accent, it's not that noticeable) Excellent Bad | ||

Those 5% and 12% that hate doa and moletrap respectively seem to write up well over half the posts. Very good observation ... which was voiced by Chill on the last Weapon of Choice as well. Only the critics have an urge to post something and thus the threads tend to be more negative about certain people. Personally I like Doa and Moletrap very much, even their jokes arent worse than the ones which Tastosis made in seasons 1 and 2. I used to complain about that a lot, but they have improved. Too many kids are "entitled casuals" who expect perfection right from the start and never notice that it takes time and effort to form a great team. It reminds me of those companies who only want to hire those 25 year old university graduates with 7 years of experience in the job and without the urge to train these people themselves to suit their needs. | ||

Excellent Average Good Good Every native English speaker who cannot understand Kelly's accent seriously needs to think about either hiring an English tutor or getting their hearing checked. | ||

You can tell if someone is from GOM from their logo beside there name generally or they will just state it beforehand.Im kind of confused... is the poll starter is just a random poster or is he from GOM TV ? | ||

The other casters are either trying too hard to be funny and/or simply lack basic knowledge of game mechanics (strategies, tactics, actually understanding what's going on etc.) | ||

Hes got a great voice for commentating, but hes not very charismatic or interesting. Also hes always making the wrong calls due to his weak knowledge of the game. Moletrap is very aaannoying. His scrappy high pitch voice makes it unbearable. Hes always talking over Doa, and ALWAYS over exaggerating on situations of the game, due to alwayssss his superbly weak knowledge of the metagame and trends. Together, they create very awkward and low quality casts. | ||

Doa and Moletrap are both good casters individually, but they really lack the chemistry that Tastosis have. Everytime I listen to Doa + Moletrap, it sometimes feel like they're fighting to talk, or just create really awkward moments | ||

I felt that DoA/Kelly combination could've been excellent if left to ripen. Excellent, Excellent, Average, Average, Bad. Agreed with this. Moletrap and DoA are good at keeping the chatter flowing, but they so rarely say anything interesting. They really need to improve their ability to assess the game and catch important moments. | ||

I think they already have and will continue to get pointers from GOM about not talking over eachother and not interrupting eachother. It'll get better for sure. | ||
