I can't stand HD and Painuser combo. Frequently whoever is controlling the camera is not looking at the action, and HD consistently make comments that are incorrect to the current game.

For example in one game HD commented how a Zerg player had map control now that his lings were out, but the lings did not have speed and the Terran player had hellions. Even AS HE WAS SAYING the Zerglings would have map control, the hellions were denying it and this received no comment from HD.

I just do not like how he consistently makes statements that are not well thought out. At times I feel like the fact that HD and PainUser are such good friends makes the two of them commentating more like a pair of pals having a beer watching the game then professional casters trying to convey a niche game to a wider audience.

djWHEAT and dApollo are great. Catspajamas and Doa are good too.

Painuser though, ruins casts for me... I'm all for humor and joking around that comes with the casting of any game (starcraft, football, etc.) But painuser unfortunately acts like a buffoon to such a degree in so many of his casts that it hurts to watch them. Does anyone else feel this way?

Wheat could talk klingon in his casts and I'd still love him.
HD/Painuser doesn't work for me at all.

Was suprised how well Cats pee james and Doa did after being disappointed by CodeA casting.

hmm i kind of feel bad for HD at times lol cause he literally says the absolutely wrong thing prob a fair 30% of the time and then painuser is just like umm no its like so....... just correcting HD and then HD is like umm and onto the next thing lol I don't think hes bad i just think he needs to learn a bit more to balance out the level of in depth knowledge of the game.
JD, need I say more? :D

I think HD is a very awkward person in general. He frequently stumbles over words and isn't clear about what he's trying to say.



and if painuser says midfield 1 more time...

on top of this, they still interrupt each other constantly and talk over each other even though they've been casting together for IGN for a while now...
You can think I'm wrong, but that's no reason to quit thinking.

Personally I like the HD PainUser combo, despite them not getting 100% of the info right, they do a pretty good job.

I just want to be very very clear. Just because I (or anyone) think someone may be awkward in a live setting and not be completely clear and confident when they speak, does not mean I am hating on them.



Person A is stumbling over words and it is distracting from the game =/= I don't like this person

You're not speaking for everyone in this thread. A lot of the complaints are unnecessary, unconstructive and generally abusive. That kind of thing directed at someone who has done so much for Starcraft II and tries constantly to improve is just out of place and wrong. If you don't like his casting then people need to give constructive criticism, because no one in this thread has done as much for the game as him, not even close.

Hmm I'd agree. I would just be specific if you are going to call someone out. Because it serves no good to polarize everyone's critique to the point where if you say anything less than positive then that means you have a personal vendetta with that person and you are trying to insult them.

We are all adults. We can call people out when they suck at something and still greatly respect them and want them to succeed.

Husky and HD brought me into Starcraft 2. Only Husky joined me in improving over this past year.
I am actually sad that HD is casting Blizzcon with Artosis. The risk of that being terrible beyond belief is so high.

dApollo is awesome, Painuser is pretty good, DoA is good without moletrap and CatsPajamas is sort of decent. DjWheat sort of needs to be carried but does very well when he is.

Easily dApollo and DjWheat.

Hd and painuser have been casting much better today in my opinion then they were the other days. HD is making less bad calls, and Painuser has been relatively spot on with his analysis. Their banter has also been much better than it has been. There are occasional hiccups, but the improvement has me giving them a little more faith.

I have to go with dApollo and DjWheat, but that's simply because they are 2 casters I enjoy, even when they're not casting together.

I don't mind any of the other casters, sure, some can do a bit better, but hey, so far so good.

They're all good. I wanted to see PainUser go the more technical and insightful route since HD kind of lacks that, but other than that...eh.

I didn't see many of Doa/Catspajamas casts. I do like Catspajamas, though.

DJWheat and dApollo took it, though. They were by far the best, and are both some of the best casters for SC2 around at the moment.
