I thought CatsPajamas and DoA did a great job. I absolutely could not stand HD and PainUser though. | ||

The husky and HD casting combination was by far the best one year ago, not because of quality casting but because of the push power they had in popularity, it was equal to what tastosis has right now. | ||

He isn't the best caster, but he's a better player and more knowledgeable SC2er than anybody but PU or the guy from Dignitas. Like, levels on levels on levels ahead of CatsPajamas and djWheat (who are both better casters, but far less knowledgeable). He is the better player but he sure doesn't show off any of his knowledge while casting. Also he is the king of over exaggerating things. Two scenarios that I remember: 1. A game in IPL qualifer: player A gained a big advantage and managed to lose it. HD "OMG he is about to throw away the biggest lead in the history of starcraft!!!!!!" PU "I don't know about that ..." 2. Some foreign Zerg player that once beat somebody in Code A and HD went "by beating player X he certainly established himself as one of the greats" PU "I don't know if you could call him one of the greats yet" | ||

When hearing HD and PainUser cast I feel that HD is still too much casting as if he is casting alone and not letting enough of the analysis to be done by PainUser. That could actually be fine is HD didn't make that many wrong calls which honestly holds that casting combination back. | ||

So my pick for the best caster combo in IPL, _EASILY_ , is DjWheat and dApollo. | ||

I have to say I'm a huge anti-fan of the usual trio of IPL casters, but Doa and CatsPajamas worked surprisingly well. It seems Doa is capable of quite intelligent commentary when he's not being overshadowed by Wolf or interrupted by Moletrap. CatsPajamas has always been a decent color commentator, so it's nice to see that Doa could fill the analysis role. Plus, they're freaking hilarious. HD and though...I don't even know, man. I like PainUser when he casts with DjWheat, but it seems like whenever he's alongside someone who doesn't know what they're talking about, he starts slacking off and acting like a totally different person to get on their level. In my opinion this is the worst casting duo in all of SC2 history. HD says stupid stuff, PainUser rolls with it, nobody benefits. This guy nailed it. | ||

I think HD/PU is the best combo of the 3. | ||
