To me, a true caster is the one that does play-by-play talk with a professional radio voice and language like that of TotalBiscuit or HDstarcraft. A commentator is the one who gives opinion about the game based on his knowledge, not biased like Artosis. For example, Poltprime executed his games against Alicia perfectly, but Artosis made it to be like they were cheesy and even recommended viewers not to watch those games. Just because your mom "Alicia" loses to Polt and Polt's past comment about Jinro, doesn't mean you have to downplay Polt that much when the "cheesier" player was always Alicia since he did sneaky voidrays and DT in early game all the time. If I were GOMtv and Artosis recommends viewers not to watch their games, I would've fired Artosis for sure. What kind of employee recommend others not to buy his employer's product. If this community prefers fanboyism over professionalism, then I don't think the foreign SC scene would go anywhere. Only being professional and hire professional casters and commentators would push the scene to a professional level. If you look at Korean caster and commentators and real sports castings in the US, they all have single caster with a radio voice and one or two non-biased commentators. Tastosis are super biased and nonprofessional. Just think about Clide, Alicia, Inca. Then think about BitByBit, Polt, TheBest. Your job is to be professional and non-biased, not going after and praising someone's butt and spreading hates on the ones you don't like. User was banned for this post. | ||

His knowledge base will probably increase as the game matures, but I would really like to see him get his old passion back. | ||

I watch SC2 for the entertainment value. Therefore, to me, a good caster is one that is entertaining. These two are very fun to listen to and watch, and therefore entertaining, and good casters. Did you ever consider that the "fanboyism" resulted from them being so entertaining, not the other way around? | ||

Last gsl (not the supertournament) I tuned into the finals just to hear "this is gg". Turned off the stream again and played ladder.. Im raging so hard everytime I hear it.. For the love of god.. Good players can see for them selves when its GG.. Bad players dont want to hear its gg. They are there for the excitement. And saying "this game is over" pretty much kills ANY excitement.... even if its obviously gg. Totalbiscuit wrote a long post on reddit explaining it a lot better than I can ever do. | ||

Korean casters in action : + Show Spoiler + Professionnal and serious you said? :D Tasteless and Artosis love the game and try to make us love it too. i don't care if they have their favorites, i just want to see passionates guys talking about their passion (the game). We are watching gsl to have fun and some exciting moments, not to be bored by looking at 2 serious guys casting some serious content imho. They make mistakes for sure, but who doesn't? | ||
