I like Moletrap. He's 50x better than Khaldor who just streams adjacent sentences really fast that have absolutely no relevance to each other. So annoying.

I find Moletrap and Khaldor don't have good synergy. Today Moletrap was good, usually I'm not a fan.

Moletrap is actually not bad when paired up with Wolf. Go Wolftrap/Woletrap!

Moletrap has no clue. Like:

"Great hold by Idra" Idra GGs five seconds later getting completely stomped by the protoss.

"And he haven't even started stim" When actually stim finished 5 seconds ago.

Let's be real.
Wolf is great and GSL needs another caster.
Khaldor, Moletrap and Doa aren't bad, but by different reasons, they aren't gsl level.

Khaldor has such passion for the game, the sheer amount of casting he does outside the GSL just continually adds to his knowledge.

I don't like moletrap just because his knowledge of the game is still really lacking which I find amazing considering how much access he has to high level play, if your casting for SC2 get some passion for the game -live it, love it, ENJOY IT. It is extremely obvious to those watching if your heart is in it or not.

Doa is by far the worst caster, listened to him on IPL the other day saying 'he should really load those units into the overseer, they move so much faster then overlords' (this is not a joke, he really said that.)

Wolf has great knowledge and understanding of the game, seems to me lately though that he is losing a bit of his passion for the game.

Tastetosis - Really are a great casting duo, can't say anything to knock em.
Never argue with an idiot, they will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Well, i personally like moletrap.He was great in bw imo, perhaps less in depth then others but he did entertain and could convey the thoughts of the players pretty good. I see him as some1 who can make it interesting for non-sc players. He lowers the threshold.

Personal wish: some1 find Klazart...oh yeah..

Moletrap has the game knowledge of Gold level or lower. When playing T, he doesn't know how to take a scv off a building and he pulls 3 workers for 1 harassing probe. Just so you get an idea.

But that's not what I can't stand him. He CONTINUOUSLY INSULTS the players saying they have to "prove themselves" or simply they are "bad." This I find inexcusable considering the CODE A qualifiers are the hardest qualifiers in the world.

Throughout his casts, all he does when he's not insulting the players is say stats, while ignoring the game, because he knows nothing else.

He would be ok for pre-game show. The fact that gom hired him full time shows they don't care about the English stream. I'm sure they would never allow such low level casting on the Korean stream.

my 2 cents anyway.

There should be a Poll for people in the OP to Vote who doesn't want MoleTrap casting or on how his performance is compared to other Casters.

I really don't think he should be a GSL Caster. Isn't MoleTrap in silver league or something. Nothing personal against him but he actually has the most grating and annoying voice too.

I don't have anything against him as a person, and his voice is meh, I could get around it, but his game knowledge is SO shallow, he constantly misstates what is obviously going to happen. They really need to get some half decent players to cast code a, every other tournament caster that tries to do analytical casting is at least high masters if not GM.

The other commentators that do play by play seem to have a lot more energy and enthusiasm.

He proved again in this recent round of Code A games why he doesn't have the pedigree to be a GSL caster. Horrific game knowledge displayed along with some of the most eardrum-destroying calls imaginable. Wolf was solid and Khaldor is slowly getting a bit better. Pretty bad overall. :/

In yesterday's match of July vs Jjun, July catches Jjun's army against a cliff, and moletrap shouts "HORRIBLE splitting by Jjun".

Wolf has to correct this 5 seconds later.. 'He didn't have room to split". What the hell? How does GOM continue with him inspite of his terrible pretentious casting for one year?

Doa >>>>>> Khaldor >>>>>>>>>>> Moletrap, in my opinion.

Everything that people have against Moletrap has already been said (voice, lack of knowledge, seems kind of arrogant.)
I did post on the live thread yesterday that I didn't hate him, but I was just trying to be nice and deny it to myself. He really is bad, and this becomes all the more evident when you take him away from Wolf, who is imo the best non-Tastosis caster that GSL has ever had. With Wolf, he can focus more on play-by-play and let Wolf be the brains, but with pretty much anyone else? He pipes in with strategy talk a lot more and everything just gets exposed.

I wonder if we can get John the Translator to be a caster

Wolf is so fucking good he fireman lifted moletrap at the start of the code A games and carried him kicking and screaming the whole time. Moletrap has no game knowledge, whatsoever, yet he tries to analyse all the time and gets it horribly wrong every time, and some of these times it is such a big blunder that he has to be corrected by Wolf. Casters should never have to correct each other because it interrupts flow and so on and makes them look silly but Wolf has no choice when it is glaringly obvious to everyone watching.

He is also incredibly insulting to players, Wolf brought out the match history of a player I think that we hadn't seen in a while, since an open season and his only win was against Vines. Now of course Moletrap has to go on to say how bad vines is so this guy is probably bad too

Moletrap is really bad in terms of knowledge so much so that I just mute the sound instead.
