Hopefully he'll learn that this time around.


if i decided not to watch any sports where i disliked the commentators, i would watch no pro sports at all. don't be ridiculous.

i'd rather have kelly than moletrap, even though she had a terrible accent at least it added some flair to the casting

Oh god, im not going to troll, but my honest opinion of moletrap is that he is quite poor. Mainly because hes the type of caster you love or you don't. I don't a lot don't and a lot do, the problem is that he is casting for such a large audience and a good percentage of people do not like him at all, after his casts gom is filled with trolls flaming him. I think they need more universal casters like wolf/tastosis. Personally upset hes coming back Im not going to be watching code very much which sucks cause I love code A

I dont wanna deny anyone their living but Wolf and Torch are the only ones qualified for those spots out of the lot of them.

wait, wut? i'm confused. Doa is back in korea, so i assume he's permanent? but he has a wife which is why he went home the first time - so is he actually staying? so is it gonna be moletrap+doa? or wolf+doa+moletrap?...

...wish kelly was the code a caster

Moletrap didn't have any synergy with his previous partner, he just doesn't work very well casting with others it seems. Would rather see him solo cast if anything, but he just tends to be awkward and slightly rude/misunderstanding to his co-casters. Just my opinion though.

Moletrap has been my favorite caster since broodwar, has such a huge love for the game of starcraft.

Much rather have a former starcraft 1 commentator over there then anyone else. He deserves it more then most of you realize.

I have been enjoying the Doa/Wolf combo very much, and I find this decision perplexing. I dislike Moletrap's commentary for various reasons. His lack of charisma and overly awkward personality have been the cause of jarring moments in previous Code A matches, and certainly had a negative impact on my viewing experience. Other casters with similar issues have made up for this lack of charm with analytic commentary, but I feel Moletrap is also lacking in this aspect. His grating interruptions were also highly unpleasant in previous seasons and were quite distracting while trying to enjoy the games.

Moletrap has such a polarizing likeability.

I don't think he's that bad of a caster, but I don't like how he casted with DoA. He would constantly make it appear that he's the lead caster. Tasteless is in the driver seat for Tastetosis because he's the play by play commentator, but at least you see him acknowledge an equality between him and Artosis. Everytime you hear him interrupt the analytical commentary, he follows up with, "Sorry Artosis, I didn't meant to speak over you."

Don't be silly, I mute him and watch the games, it's fine.

This worries me, with Doa and Wolf I can show my friends and family the GSL code a games and not be worried about the commentating seeming overly cheesy or dramatically unprofessional. The way Moletrap basically bludgeoned Doa every time he opened his mouth made listening to the commentary really squirm-worthy. I guess I can hope he's improved, but I won't hold my breath.

sadly moletrap lacks the social skills to work with a co-caster, otherwise he would be great :/

Well, this isn't my place, or the place to bash MoleTrap. I will admit that my opinion of him is very poor, but he has room to prove otherwise. GL to him, wolf and doa.

Someone needs to paste audio of Bill Walton commentating over a GSL match.

not sure if wolf is staying in KR for that long, although he did say he was planning on staying in KR "forever" in artosis' video, wolf has a lot more commitment to FXO. moletrap and doa again lol, they need to work on not cutting each other off, but otherewise, they're a good duo.

they were just starting to make progress and then gom took them out... i don't want to watch that again. i'm sorry, i'll be positive about moletrap coming back, and doa too, but i don't want them together. that would be agonizing

I'm not going to lie, I would definitely prefer DoA+Wolf to Moletrap+Wolf. I enjoyed Moletrap back when he did BW VODs, but for whatever reason I just get irritated listening/watching him doing Code A.

Of course I'll still watch the games when I can. His being there won't affect my decision to watch in any way. However, I don't think it's wrong to say that I won't enjoy the casts as much as I should.

Congrats to him regardless.
