A minority of players? Everyone I know personally that has heard him cast dislikes him and /v/, SA, reddit, and other communities can't stand him. He ruins casts. As a customer why should I not be able to complain that GOM is using awful casters?


He doesn't ruin casts for me. Doa is worse.

Again, look at the polls that have been taken. You're in the minority. Most people rated him average or good. (And it was in comparison to Tastetosis, so you can expect that to skew everyone else down.)

MKP went cloak banshee in one of the games when they kinda base traded and Moletrap just talked about something completely different while ST_Legend showed the starports and the cloak research over and over again and when the cloak was half finished they were like "OOOOH AND MKP IS GOING CLOAK BANSHEE!!!
-_-.

And it's just not that, ST_Legend actually finds and points out really great timings and cool things like most observers don't and when Moletrap is casting he doesn't pay attention to it and brings it up because he has an awful understanding of this game and can't see these small things.


Um.... Tasteless and Artosis ignore what ST_Legend shows us all the time too. He's gone down and spam clicked on tons of upgrades/production facilities that they ignore in a lot of games.

The bottom line is that they control their own screen on at least one of those computers. So he actually ISN'T showing them everything that he shows us.

In Game 1 Optimus v. Keen, Keen goes gas first while Optimus goes for a GASLESS fast expand. Moletrap: "Looks like they're going for the same opener..."

Later in the same game: "If Keen loses his natural he won't be mining AT ALL" (there is a third base mining for Keen)



I appreciate Moletrap's enthusiasm, but he does miss tons and tons of stuff while casting. GOM could do better.


Listen to what he says after that? The 2nd monitor isn't on the right aspect ratio and has the minimap/edges of the map cut off. That base wasn't on his screen.

And that's not a Moletrap problem, Tasteless misses things with that monitor all the time.

He is my least liked caster. He is condescending to his co-casters. He also offers almost no strategical insight.

Random question, does he still say that Zerg and Protoss needs an extra base to fight Terran? I mean that's true but still :p... reminds me of the good old Brood War days.

I think he's a solid caster, but he definitely should be better at improvising and going along with jokes from co casters.

I'd rather have Kelly back I think he does not have much ''chemistry'' going on with any of the cocasters. Still, good for him

It would be interesting to see which casters people liked with their ladder ranking.

I really don't get why people hate this guy. He's the only code A caster who actually seems to know what he's talking about. He doesn't pretend to know more than he does either, like the others do.

And he has the least annoying voice. I personally can't really stand the voices of Doa or Wolf. Moletrap sounds the least "fake" of all the code A casters.

I might enjoy Code A/Team League more if it was Moletrap solo-casting.

Well, I hope moletrap can improve his chemistry with the other casters, that's my sole complaint. I've been a big fan of him ever since my broodwar days. Maybe casting some games outside of the GSL? I think DoA did something like that the first time he went to Korea and I really appreciated his effort to improve the Co-Casting.

Same here

People tend to be more picky on the casters than even the players themselves. It's to the point where...if you are so critical about the casting, how can you even enjoy the game? I'm not always looking for a lesson when I tune into the GSL, but learning something new from time to time is far from unwelcome.

I think we have a good pool of casters and they are all enjoyable to me.

I like Moletrap :D

Just because I used to watch his brood war stuff, I have so much more respect for people who were involved with brood war, because it was so much more underground.

Moletrap & Klazart = brood war awesomeness

I'm very dissapointed. I dislike his casting, and so do a lot of people. Sad that they don't care about opinions of their viewers.

Not a fan favorite of Moletrap personally but can't hate him for trying to make a living.

I found his voice too irritating, personally. Sucks for me, but good for those who enjoy his casting lol.

Same here, but it's good to have diversity. Gotta have the guy with the annoying voice! It's what makes tv so good!

But really, moletrap seems like a good guy. Happy for all three of them!
Please PM me with any songs you like that you think I haven't heard before!

I would be highly interested to see an opinion breakdown by league. People who are terrible at this game are more likely to enjoy anyone casting games at a professional level because they are ignorant of the huge missteps in casting. Meanwhile, people who understand the game at a higher level are more likely to be more critical of him.


And weren't they getting at least one new caster for October? If all these guys are staying, what's Khaldor going to cast?
