Doa & Cats I didn't really care for. Same with HD and PU, but they were pretty funny with strange style. These four were kinda 'amateurish'. All the knowledge they had seemed to be repeats of something Artosis has said.


djWheat, i don't think he casts well with Day9, but with apollo he was pretty good. They make a good combo.

I normally hate these posts but when IPL and NASL insist on forcing bad casters on us for the finals of these epic leagues, I think they need to keep happening.

Come on IPL, wtf, give us some good casters for the grand finals please.

By far Wheat and Apollo.....both are great.....the rest are really bad when it comes to "common" knowledge of the game....and broadcasting wise hd and painuser are the worst (alot of mistakes, bad knowledge, etc).....

HD's voice makes my face ache He's like Brian Cox..
DJ Wheat and Apollo are really good, they have the analysis and enthusiasm to make for entertaining commentary. And of course Apollo says "Pew-ma" :D

Would be Painuser/Wheat if they would pair them up.

Yes, typically television casters/reporters are former professional players.

edit: also this is a poor analogy because in a physical sport its possible to have excellent game knowledge while being physically unfit to play (IE if you're 50 years old or something) but in a strategy game knowing how to play well is the same as being able to play well.

I disagree. People can have amazing thoughts and knowledge over this game or any game to that matter, without having to be able to turn that into actually playing well. An example could be said to be day9, who has an amazing knowledge over this game but maybe could be said that this doesn't directly turn into being very good at the game when playing.

Can I vote for all? I thought all 3 caster combas did a really good job.

Painuser and Cats Pajamas is my favortie from the stream, but I havent seen them here (togethor)

nearly 90% of sports casters i listen to on tv are ex professional players or ex coaches.

your analogy has failed.

Yeah, I'm not trying to be a hater.

But.

I hope IPL and other leagues start giving the knowledgeable casters some recognition. Its obvious.

I don't know what it is, but djwheat and apollo really draw me into the games that they cast together. The other combos can't do it for me. I'm hoping the wheat/apollo combo cast the final match.

"Execution based play". I like it. Hope other casters pick up on the term.

DoA has impressed me as a caster with his game knowledge (casting GSL definitely helps in that regard) and humor. The Wheat/Apollo combination is pretty solid too; Wheat is hilarious and Apollo knows a lot about the game (and I like his accent no homo). My soccer coach used to say "Pew-ma" as well and "add-dee-daz" (instead of Adidas) so I'm completely used to it and it doesn't bother me, haha.

HD and Painuser are ehhh for me and I usually prefer music when they're casting, sorry =\
