Seems like a nice guy though, maybe it's his voice? I watched a ton of Code A last night and just found myself much more interested in what Wolf had to say. I've thought about it myself and I think the reason why I personally don't like him is because of how harsh he is to the code A players. He acts like its the end of the world when a guy messes up on hellion micro, when obviously theres several things they're multitasking on. He's gold / platinumish level giving criticism where it dont really it's necessary. Especially when code A has many of the best players in the world... Wolf used to do it too but I think he realized he was being a little bit too pessimistic in his attitude saying players were indecisive. Wolf's improved a lot and dealt with his faults. I think one reason why Artosis and Tasteless are so great is that while they're making it an enjoyable experience they can really explain when one of the players is doing something really cool and stylistic. I think given time Moletrap can learn too;. Wolf is just as harsh on mistakes as Moletrap is, even now. Tastosis have also always been brutally honest about certain players they don't like or bad plays. True, I guess it's just the way they go about it that makes it more enjoyable to listen to, atleast for me =). You'll hear Wolf or Tastosis be harsh about certain things they feel are important, Moletrap is just really constant of letting player mistakes be known.. | ||

Korean platinum is freaking horribad just like every other platinum league. I actually play on the Korean server, unlike those that claim a "plat kor = masters NA" equivalency without any experience. Mid masters on korea = very high masters on NA/SEA. Top ~15% of masters on korea = high GM (top 15 or so) on SEA, top 100 on NA. This is my experience. Platinum on Korea = pure badness. | ||

Also I feel myself agreeing with all the things he says in ZvX, which is a very rare thing for me to do when listening to a caster who is not a pro and especially one who doesn't main Z. Only other person I get this with is Artosis (even though he's lost his ability to talk about uber-specifics since race switching) | ||

This is what I can't stand. Artosis and Tasteless can both be the B guy. DOA and Wolf can both be the B guy. Moletrap has Wheatitis and believes he needs to steer everything and occasionally throw it to his supporting cast member. There was a moment the other day where Wolf was trying desperately to get a word in and Moletrap just ran over him with this 'if I just keep going Wolf's going to realize that I'm still talking' thing. I think he'd be fine if he just changed his approach, at least experimentally, and deferred for an entire cast. | ||

Personally I really prefer to get a Lone Wolf than the Wolftrap duo. | ||

Yeah that's definitely the main problem, he really needs to watch Tasteless and Artosis...it happens that they talk over each other, but the main thing is both allow the other to speak almost like taking turns or something. Both recognize that the other is trying to say something and allow it...Moletrap just goes on rambling and Wolf/Doa just sit there passively. I feel like the caster duo should more or less be having a conversation with each other on the topic at hand (the game) not a monologue because one caster doesn't shut up. | ||

He is good at bringing the energy to the cast, but it's a caster team and when he misses some of the action in the game, he should let the other guy leave enough room to analyze and comment the game, too. | ||
