I don't think Moletrap deserves this kind of shit from everyone. I was a fan of his BW and SC2 youtube vids before he went casting for Code A. Frankly he does pretty well, and I thought that he deserved more followers.

The way I see it, he's not very used to dual casting live in a setting like this so he gets nervous. The chemistry between him and Doa isn't as good as Wolf/Doa either.

Let's cut him some slack, he can do better than this after he gets used to it.

gosh this is turned from bad to worse. the whole metagame of baneling drop roach is that the banelings kill the fungalled stalkers while the roaches have free reign to mop up the colossi. moletraps like"herp derp? whats goin on now? herp derp derp he needs corruptors".

lack of game knowledge is inexcusable imo.

Sorry, but his voice and chemistry with others is awful.
And we can't just let him "do his shit", as we pay for it ...

If Moletrap sucks for you, it's either because you're new to starcraft esports or his co-caster is lacking. Get used to him.

have you watched the GSL recently? he keeps interrupting his co-caster the entire friggin time

lack of game knowledge.. very frustrating. We need people who actually have good insight because some of the comments make me cringe.

I dont get how some of u are talking about moletrap's BW casting. He perhaps was really good then... but things have changed. Get with the times, there are more people that think moletrap's casting isnt as good as we'd expect from a paid service like GSL.

Im just glad tastosis is gonna be casting the next few games. I wud cry myself to sleep if moletrap casts again.

I believe Moletrap's tonight cast of Huk's group in Code S is his best cast yet. Very little interrupting each other between him and Doa.

He definitely has what it takes to be a permanent Code A caster, I'm glad he's here.

He's definitely aware of that criticism though because he did improve a little bit on that aspect. He also usually realizes when he does it and immediately says "Oh, sorry, go ahead" to his co-caster.

I mean, Tasteless does the same thing (interrupting and then following up with "oh, sorry Artosis, go ahead") fairly often and everyone loves Tastosis.

I'm fine with people giving constructive criticism to moletrap, but just whining and pretending that you have some sort of entitlement because you pay? What is this, WoW?

Get over yourself.

So what? Some casters do analysis some do play by play, etc etc. Wolf/Doa is just two monotoned dudes having an extremely laid back conversation, Moletrap throws in some enthusiasm.

The funny thing is half the claims that moletrap said this, moletrap said that...actually were said by wolf or Doa and the person is either straight lieing or remembers it in a manner to befit their prejudice. Or its an error made by both, yet Moletraps mistake is vastly more heinous.

Out of curiosity, but does moletrap knows what he's talking about now? I remember back in the youtube BW days, he just came across as someone who doesn't really know the game. Not sure about his constant interruptions, but just remembered him as someone who kept pretending to knowledgeable about stuff he knows nothing about. Hopefully he's improved on that for SC2.

The reason I ask is because I live in China and I'd need a proxy just to watch GOMTV with constant fear of line breakingj. And there's an official Chinese stream with Chinese casters here. So I've actually never watched any English casts.

Yuck. I was annoyed when I tuned in to the Code S matches this evening and he was casting instead of Tasteosis...now he's on full time? Oh well, preference thing. I'd almost rather have Kelly back than him...

Yea I can agree with you on the BW part. Never liked him in BW, but i guess korean commentators are the best.
Moletrap in SC2 as people have stated before, doesn't know his stuff, and keeps making bad calls.

I agree with some of the criticism of his lack of chemistry with his co-casters, but I do feel like he has made a concerted effort to improve in this area, since he's come back for GSL August.

Not saying he's quite there yet, or will get there, but it's at least better than before imo. I really appreciate it people try to get better at their weaknesses, so I got to give Moletrap some credit for this.

Also, Doa is better than Moletrap at complementing a co-caster, but isn't as good as someone like Wolf (or Tasteless). So when Doa & Moletrap duo, it highlights more of his other shortcomings than when Wolf & Moletrap duo.

Anyways, hopefully it just continues to improve.

If I had a suggestion for both Moletrap and Doa, it'd be this. Today, there was a match, I think it was Killer v Huk, but I'm not sure. A twilight council was building, and they're trying to predict where it's for blink or for DTs.

If I were either of them, I'd go ask Wolf, Tasteless or Artosis what are things to look for to help me as a caster or viewer to help clue me in guessing to correct path. Also, what should the opponent be looking for to clue him in.

eg. Is it a certain composition like a # of stalkers, when they got their 2nd gas, etc. I mean you have some great SC2 minds, so ask them so you can also grow as a caster.
