They are cycling through code A casters for a while then they pick the ones they liked the most, doa said that he missed his wife in 1 of the code A matches. I don't really enjoy moletraps commentary as much when he starts to scream or says things that are completely wrong, good casters cycle the income, units, and production tabs while also checking the player cams. At gsl the casters are not being obs'd so I see no reason for them to follow it. In fact no caster should fucking follow the obs, obs is meant for us, casters need to control their own cam and try to see everything at all times. Yes it inst possible but they should still aim for it.

Edit: Also doa was a great caster.

Yeah well Doa has had by far the best voice so far, his insight into the game is definitely lacking compared to what we're used to, but he has definitely shown to have a good voice and work with his casters, while Moletrap has had the constant shouting over his cocaster problem. Maybe Wolf can show us something we've all been needing, without Tastosis in Code A anymore

If moletrap shuts up Wolf the same way he did to Doa, I will be super annoyed.

Here's hoping his time casting with Doa and the feedback he received has given Moletrap a bit more experience dual casting and actually engaging with his partner.

No offense to Doa, but I think Wolf's humour is a lot more subtle and dry than Doa's, so I can totally picture Moletrap having even more trouble following the flow of conversation and reacting appropriately (instead of shutting most of Doa's attempts down because Moletrap doesn't know how to follow up on it properly).

I hadn't heard his casts before but I think he did a great job in the game you posted. I'm looking forward to seeing him in there. I know this has been discussed to death but really, in my opinion the most important thing as a caster is just to not say anything blatantly wrong even if you just talk in generalities all the time. The previous casting pair really did make a lot of mistakes and that did detract from the games for me. Wolf seems more knowledgeable and I'm hoping he succeeds!

Yay someone who plays the game at high level! I'm really happy about this, although I would have liked to see Moletrap gone too, well it's better than nothing.

Best of luck to Wolf.

Hopefully he will survive the grinder of horrible negativity that many in the community are likely to throw at him. -_-

Are you kidding me?

Doa was awful, so happy he left.

Never heard Wolf's casts, but it can only be better at this rate.

Moletrap also needs to go..happy to see GOM move back in the right direction.

Hmm...

Wolftrap isn't bad but a Doawolf would've been better.

I might sound a bit mean but i never liked the way DoA casted...especially his jokes.Moletrap is just a tad bit better since he has his good moments but still...
anyway....good luck to wolf and hoping to see just how much can gomtv improve they're line-up

I miss doa + kelly. His calm demeanor and her overexcited flailing made for some -great- commentary.

I like moletrap and I like doa, but they don't seem to have much chemistry together. Here's hoping Wolf mixes better.

Moletrap needs a little more practice, I think he's more used to solo casting, so he has problems interrupting his cocaster (despite being very knowledgable about the game, and having great puns)

I sort of want a smooth, sexy english accent in my GSL commentary sometime.

Also, whatever happened to Jay? That man had a sexy, sexy voice and was an amaaaaazing commentator.
