moletrap have any post in this thread?


That's what I love about moletrap though, he doesn't reply to hate and needless piece of shit that people throw at him like some other personalities and caster's do. He's being himself and that's final. Sure he reads criticism etc, but not responding to blatant hate is good imo.

Problem #1: Hard to stand next to Lone Wolf, Tastosis and Khaldor without getting overshadowed.

Keep at it regardless, Moletrap.

Moletrap is starting to grate on me, I have to admit.

Wolf is the only good Code A Caster right now.

Khalador is okay but doesn't have much game knowledge.

Wait, since MoleCRAP is now casting LoL for that other network, will his time with GOM be up soon? He constantly talks over the other casters and the sound of his voice just grates on my nerves. I personally really like tasteless's voice, but I'm worried that he'll lose it or develop polyps from smoking too much. We should start a support group for Tasteless to quit smoking. It'd be more productive than writing a thread about how much someone sucks when everyone already knows it.

I used to cheer on Moletrap as he struggled casting alongside other casters (as I used to watch his casting back in BW) but I can say now that my opinion has totally changed. I do not enjoy his casting at all. He is misinformed, analyzes plays incorrectly, interrupts the other caster unnecessarily (and rudely) and doesn't seem to bring anything to the table except his passion for eSports/SC2.

Sadly, I wouldn't miss him if he no longer casted for GOMTV.

People talk a lot of shit on moletrap, but rarely give constructive criticism. You don't have to be a dick even if you don't like something.

Personally one thing that I would like to see him improve on is the number of corrections he has to do. He will often say something and then soon after apologize about it being wrong.

I've got some constructive criticism for him: stop insulting the players. You don't call a player a scrub if you're casting his games. You don't say a player is bad, and you don't say a player is playing badly. You can say a player isn't playing up to his usual level, you can say a player made a mistake, but to actually insult the player is not something a caster should do, especially since it goes against the entire purpose of your job: to generate more interest in the games.

It's even more important since Moletrap brings more or less nothing to the table in terms of analysis or understanding of the game.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

Couldn't have said it better myself. The worst thing is he drags the other casters into it and soon enough wolf is calling them "bad" too because he doesn't want to disagree. We're watching the top 50 (?) koreans playing on gomtv. No one is bad.

There are a few things i dislike about moletraps casting, but the thing that sticks out the most to me is WHEN HE RAISES HIS VOICE AND STARTS OVER EXAGGERATING MINOR THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON IN THE GAME THAT ARE REALLY NOT WORTH HYPING. That and it seems like he tunes out most of what his co-commentator is saying and just waits for his turn to talk.
