He wasn't my favourite caster (loved TorcH, personally ), but good for him! Look forward to seeing him cast some more GSL games for us.

moletrap is fine alongside wolf, definitely beats the moletrap/doa combo in the early code A days where both guys are bringing the same qualities to the table (ie. calling the PBP and not so much insightful analysis).

wolf gets kinda weird anyways when he strays from the analysis so i think it's fine having moletrap do a lot of the "grunt" talking.

THE NUKES GONNA LAND ON HIS ARMEE!!!

Congratulations Moletrap. I'm glad to see you able to pursue your passion for a living. From having to steal internet from the library to cast brood war to being a caster for GOM, you have made us proud Moletrap.

Bleh, personally disliked him. The problem for me is a bit bigger than just him talking over his cocaster though. It's that he just doesn't really interact with his cocaster at all. Everytime Doa made a joke, he just made it this awkward silence if he didn't find it funny instead of coming back with something witty like tastosis would.

My favorite combo was torch/wolf, and doa/wolf is pretty good as well. However, moletrap + anyone seems like a bad match because of how he works with his cocasters.

Lets just hope Wolf talks over him and interrupts him all the time so we don't have to hear him much.

Ugh... I'm not looking forward to Code A casts anymore... Wolf/Doa was perfectly good, but I guess now we have to go back to "OOHHHHHH NOOOOOO"

Read the whole thread and tell me it's a "minority" of people that dislike his casting. It's a majority if anything.

He's a good caster but he needs to work on not interrupting his cocaster all the fucking time and treating his viewers like they've never played or heard a starcraft 2 cast before.

Honestly there's been more times than I can count where I've hear moletrap say "Now for those of you who have just started watching GSL or are not familiar with Starcraft II ... <insert stupid comment here>"

I've been subscribed to moletrap since BW and really enjoyed his BW casts, but even then when he went dual casting with some friends it felt awkward and out of place. Watching him cast SC2 and comparing him to someone like Day9 or Tastosis sometimes makes me want to punch something.

Moletrap's name perfectly suits his appearance and personality.

Yeah, I'm just wondering what the logic was that they based this decision on... was there some poll that I forgot to vote on? Maybe we could have saved Dwolf or wolfxc before it was too late. Oh well, I've been meaning to catch up on some music anyway.

Voluntary response bias tends to underscore two extremes: the people that love him and the people that hate him.

Personally, I love Moletrap.
I'd bet most people don't even care.

Detractors are often more vocal than the segment of the community that are happy with the way things are. The famous "Silent Majority" has its name for a reason.

Man... my dream was for Kelly to return to Korea, and now it will never be fulfilled... T_T

Moletrap is a great solo caster, probably the best there is, but I agree with other comments in this thread; he doesn't work well with a co-caster. Moletrap didn't have very good synergy with Doa, and I think people only really liked Wolftrap better because it was an improvement, not a good pairing.

One person who did get along great with her co-casters was Kelly. Doa was relatively inexperienced at the time that he and Kelly were co-casting, but as he got better, so did their synergy. Kelly always worked GREAT with Tasteless and Artosis. Also don't forget that Kelly's been very active in the SEA community since her stay at GOM, and now has a LOT more game knowledge, not to mention being more familiar with the big names. I hope GOM isn't singling her out because of the FHM shoot; if Nada did something similar, he'd receive nothing but praise.

I suppose eventually Moletrap and Wolf and Doa will get everything sorted out and they'll make a great triple archon, and I trust GOM to know what they're doing, but I wish they'd bring Kelly back. Both Moletrap and Kelly appear to be sort of controversial caster choices, but I feel people are far more unfair with Kelly than they are with Moletrap.
