Who is this guy? what has he done before except cast? former player in anything? ranking? connections? Just curious

His wiki page may help: (Wiki)

Wolf. Not a pro or anything but he is more active on ladder than most casters, I'd say, and has accounts on almost every server (TW, KR, NA, EU, SEA).

I have to agree with Chill that this process is to long winded. Imo the should have brought out all the applicants they wanted to try together and first have them casting replays in different pairs from the GOM studio. Then you have a picture of what pairs are working well together and what pairs don't.

The pairs that work well together are now moving on to casting code A games. And not the same pair for 1 season but just mix it up over 2 seasons with the more successful pairs getting more and more airtime. That way you get a clear picture where the chemistry is and who do and who don't impress/improve and at the end you are left with the best casting pair. Not necessarily the 2 best casters but the 2 casters who work the best together.

That being said I love it Wolf is being invited. I really enjoyed listening to his commentary during the TLOpen's where he casted a lot of the earlier rounds.

I'll miss doa, but I like moletrap, and hopefully they'll be less awkward than Mola/doatrap was

Looks like it's Wolf's turn in front of the pitchfork mob. Good luck!

I think this process is getting ridiculous. If they just confirmed a casting pair, any casting pair, they would have already surpassed the level of any of the new people they keep trying out. I'm getting tired of teams reacquainting with each other for the first couple weeks.

Or perhaps they never intend on getting someone full time, beacuse nobody good enough would want to accept the conditions of such a offer? If it was up to GOM, Tasteless and artosis would still be casting code A.

I will really miss Doa. When Puma was playing and he made the joke about "Pumaman", and Moletrap didn't know what it was, and he explained about the movie and how it was on Mystery Science Theater 3000, my little nerd heart fell in nerd-love. (Pumaman was one of my favorite episodes). Bonus points being from Minnesota, the home of MST3k!

While I will miss DoA I wish Wolf the best of luck and hopefully him and moletrap can put together some interesting casts

YES!!! No more Doa-nonsense - this is great news!!! Don't have to hear about his silver-league knowledge and math-"skills" (remember when he had a lesson that was about one hellion is worth one drone...).
