About Doa, that guy says insane amount of dumb things every game.Last example yesterday:
-DOA HE DIDN'T SEE THE HYDRA DEN!!!!
-Moletrap Derp, he saw the hydras...
-Doa Herp derp, yes, true...
This was pretty shocking and there was a lot of other examples.

How many hours did they have to cast again? Mistakes will be made. Moletrap allso insisted that sensor towers see cloacked units. And god knows how many times we all heard 'Tasteless dropped the ball i am sorry guys'.
In my book thats normal, none of gsl lack game knowledge or passion for the game.
I think the actual reason people dislike certain casters are:
- he/she has an annoying voice (this is ofc a very personal opinion)
- he/she talks in a way that i cannot understand (2 fast/2 loud/accent)
- he/she makes jokes that I do not find funny
- he/she is trying to hard to make the game exiting
And when you find stuff like that annoying on a person, you tend to look at what they say through a microscope and pick out everything you dont like.

Artosis and Tasteless are awesome, one thing I could say is the tangents get a little out of control, but I honestly don't mind it at all. They're just great now that tasteless doesn't have to obs.
I actually like Kelly's casting minus her leading questions, they're pretty awkward and create breaks in the cast.
Doa makes mistakes, but I don't really mind him because he doesn't have a computer to check and he sort of reminds me of artosis.
Moletrap is awful imo though. He makes all kinds of mistakes and speaks without checking, his voice is annoying and he just doesn't know enough about the game.
Doa and Moletrap are extra awful together though, lack of knowledge+mistakes makes it pretty intolerable to watch. I skip watching a lot of code a matches because i don't want to listen to them
|
It's awesome watching Tastosis cast. DoA and Moletrap is average, they do what they're supposed to do.
I seriously can't listen to Kelly for 3 seconds without turning off sound, I don't know if she's bad at casting or w/e. I just can't stand her annoying voice.

The same c an be said about moletrap in a game vs P (i think it was ZvP lastnight)
Moletrap: Oh he has an overlord scoutign the base
*As overlord flies over army and 2 colosi walking around
Moletrap: At least he didn't see the robo bay and know about the colosi

All of them are talented. Kelly is just a little harder to understand and everybody is used to Tastosis(also they have a lot more experience), so they're favorite.
|
Tastosis is something that will be hard to top. That's why Doa and Moletrap seem just average in comparison. Although they deserve huge props for making Code A actually watchable.
I almost forgot about Kelly, but yesterday I clicked on a stream commentating GSTL and all the bad memories were back. She's the only caster ever that I would describe as horrible. It was so bad, that it made me stop watching Code A altogether.
|
I'm having a hard time watching anything that isn't Tastosis. Hardly get exciting no matter how good the games, at least in comparison. It's unfortunate, but eh.
|
DOA and Moletrap are getting better and better every cast they do together. Finally they harmonize very well. I like listening to them, it makes Code A and GSTL special just as Code S is special with legendary Tastosis.

my favorite non-tastosis combo was that week where tastosis was at blizzcon and we had idra and the guy with the amazing voice. idra has amazing analysis and that guy had the best "radio voice". it was SO different from tastosis but not worse in any way.
if Code A could recreate that type of duo i'd be buying season passes still.

I find it amusing how Kelly is portrayed as a guy in the poll:
Excellent (Makes the game better with his commentary)
|
In my world:
Artosis the god of casting
Tasteless have a good synergy with Artosis, but I couldn't see him anywhere without him.
Rest is average.
|
Tasteless is so damn funny. Artosis just compliments his personality so much to.
Tastosis, accept no substitutes. There are many impersonators but only one real tastosis.
|
biased pool is biased...
I mean seriously, half the votes are just by the name without taking any commentary at question.
I voted for "Good" for everyone except Artosis, which is Excellent. I don't know why people hate on Kelly so much, she did good commentaries, but I guess people prefer american commentary instead of any other accent right.
I wonder what would happen if total biscuit would shoutcast the GSL along with a duo commentating.
either way, DoA/Moletrap both have the potential to be excellent, they just need some extra experience.
And Tasteless really need to step up on his casting. He keeps on "huuh", "but here is the thing.. huuh..." etc, and its really annoying. Without Artosis, any cast cast becomes really bad - and people used to say that Kelly was the reason why those casts were bad, except it wasn't when Artosis was around.

I love Tastosis and Doatrap, I voted Doatrap for "good" as they still have a long way to go to be as good as Tastosis as they've been casting together for ages, but they're still fantastic IMO.
I never saw Kelly's commentating so didn't vote for her.
|
Shame there are so many childish users hating on Kelly for no reason other than her non american accent.
|
Interesting results. I'm surprised at how pretty much 80% think DoA and Moletrap are pretty ok, I figured that number would be way higher with the amounts of posts complaining about them. Guess that goes to show that a vocal minority goes a long way.
|
Overall, it's tough to be anyone other than Tastosis because you're held to that standard.
