Moletrap has a problem with interrupting but it is also DOA's fault, he is too timid about speaking and usually doesn't have anything interesting to say. DOA seems to have the weakest game knowledge as well.

don't watch.

or watch in mute,or manage to find a korean restream.


Wait they have Korean re-streams? I'll watch that over every English caster if anyone can let me know about that. If you have a season ticket you should be able to watch English OR Korean cast.

For me, it's the timbre of his voice that gets irritating, especially during engagements. I also have to agree with other posters that he talks over/interrupts his co-casters waaaay too often. I also agree that he gets too loud too often when a battle is underway. That kind of excitement is best when it isn't done EVERY time there is an engagement. Less is more.

Agreed, it's not so bad when things are mellow but when he gets excited it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to my ears. At least he doesn't say dumb shit like Doa/Wolf.

If you don't watch StarCraft because of Commentary, you're no real fan and should just go back to some Casualgame like WoW or Call of Duty, Kiddy

Moletrap, DoA, Wolf and Artosis are all great Commentators, nothing wrong with 'em. Only Tasteless(if he goes to "Funny"mode), Kelly and Unstable were so bad that you need to mute the VOD.

no,he meant what he said.

you seem to think that it is impossible for someone to like moletrap or kelly and such behavior sickens me.

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.


why would I cut "someone some slack" for something I'm paying for? I'm not paying for the service to eventually be good I want it to be good now. Also considering the fact that moletrap has been casting for years, with part of that being a few months at gom already I don't see him changing much.

He voice is extremely unpleasant, his game knowledge is lacking, his entertainment value is non-existant, and he has very few redeeming values in casting in my general opinion.

What's with the entitlement? You pay to watch the games. If you don't like it mute it or leave. I'd prefer day9 or tastosis myself, but this kind of nonconstructive, intolerant hate shames our community imo.

The sheer amount of nerd rage you people are gushing out is quite amusing. I would be curious to see how good any of you would do in his situation.

Whatever, maybe I just got a more tolerant and relaxed mind listening to a starcraft 2 game than some.

Man I just hope Wolf is paired with one of them all the time... When it's just Doa and Moletrap half the time they have no idea what is "really" going on in the game...

While I am in no way a fan of Moletrap (not that I hate him or anything, I just don't enjoy his casting too much), congrats for him!

Hopefully he'll have fun and make a decent living :D

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.


Yep Spot on Mole Trap is still the same as he was in SC1

What bothers me is all the Sc1 BW Fan's Who will support him no matter what but most of them just blindly support him and don't have to bear with his Casting on the GSL which is absolutely abhorrent to me IMO. ( And The Majority of GSL Listeners as proven in the Gom.tv Caster Feed back Forum and this Thread)

That is my opinion of his casting it is intolerable to listen to and makes me not even want to watch CODE A Or Mute the Sound.

That of Which we shouldn't have to do if we want to Enjoy E-Sports....

Replace Mole Trap With Jason Lee. Atleast Jason lee Was funny and had more insight.

So True But actually it's more than just half the time... Its 90% of the game.

Don't group us all together. I've seen him in BW, I don't understand why they would blindly support him.
Its unfortunate, because next week is mvp vs nestea, and tastosis is not going to be at the GSL...

No Tastosis casted the games today. But next week, they'll be at MLG (i believe) after tuesday. MVP vs Nestea is on Wednesday.

@features You basically took the words out of my mouth.


That's just plain wrong, you're paying for the GomTV GSL show, as produced by them. You don't tick a box when signing up that makes it so all your money goes to the operation of the league and not to the stage production or commentary. Also this pervasive idea that constructive criticism is the only valid response is frankly absurd, it's not the consumer's job to help the service provider improve their service, but the consumer does have the right to complain if the quality of the product drops significantly from what they are lead to expect.

Also for god's sake can people please stop putting 'nerd' infront of everything anyone does related to starcraft 2, tastosis can barely get away with it and it's frequently awkward, what on earth makes johnny forumposter #3451 think it's going to be better when they do it?

It's also ridiculously ironic you say how tolerant and relaxed you are and then call out the one guy who listed his issues with moletrap in an itemised and, gasp, constructive, manner. Constructive criticism doesn't mean sugar coating everything in a "well you were absolutely fabulous but if you could improve one thing it would be pretty much everything" sycophantic diatribe, it means criticising while providing enough information about what they're doing wrong so they can formulate a response.
