It's impossible not to smile at the chemistry between DoA and CatsPJs. They're both so jolly and lighthearted the whole time, but do a damn fine job of hyping up a game when necessary.

I don't mind anyone, as I have enough knowledge to know what's going on anyways, but whoever spectates of cats and doa really annoys me. I see many interesting things happening on the minimap, and still he's focusing on boring stuff. I really don't want to be one of those internet whiners, but I just really hopes he sees this and gets better at it.

I found all three great. I was too focused on the game to find anything wrong with HD/PainUser as many of you have stated

They're all pretty good, but HD+Painuser's lack of professional experience puts them below the rest.

My favorite of all is CatsPajamas, but I must say that HD and PainUser are really great together. They have that experience together for a long time now, and they both have the best insight out of all the combos (they both are on progame teams, despite HD not necessarily being a "pro")

Wheat/Apollo are just about the best, but they're all solid and easily better than tastosis

I love Apollo and the amount of research he does to back up his casts, but for this time I'm gonna swing by CatsPajamas & doa since they really impressed me.
Nothing against HD & PU either, their casts were rather enjoyable, only not as much as the other duos.

By the way, play-by-play commentators are "supposed" to make mistakes. That's why they have a colour commentator on their side. Don't get too fired up about it, it's normal. Everybody's a GrandMaster theorycrafter when watching others.

I've never liked dj wheat before, but with apollo I found the duo amazing, really really good. Apollo's analytic skills were constantly correct and always given in an interesting/entertaining way. Wheat played off him perfectly in my opinion and really filled his role perfect. They were the best.

CatsPajamas is always alright to listen to but again I was surprise how much I enjoyed him casting with doa. They were funny, and didn't mess up too often. Really enjoyed doa, who I never watched too much at the gsl. Pajamas did a great job with his entertainment/sport casting angle.

Painuser and hd were good, unless you knew anything about the game. HD just makes way way too many horrible predictions or gives some seriously bad background information about strategies and tries way too hard to make a huge deal out of nothing. Painuser was better but he was not able to carry the duo. You could see sometimes he would move to correct hd but other times he just let it go and I couldn't stand it. If hd backed off of doing any analysis I could see them being better, but I probably won't know if it happens or not. More than likely will have them muted.

HD was just awful. Very low level commentary which is why most of his fans are in lower leagues cause they don't know that he barely knows what he is talking about. Painuser just states the obvious if you listen to him. DJ wheat besides butchering pronunciation...SlayersLyung?...Wasn't too bad. Doa and Dapollo were good. But whoever was controlling the camera was just awful. We always missed the beginning of big fights and don't even think about drops cause we missed the majority of those as well. The people at MLG did a much better job with that. And wtf was up with Tee Shirt guy wow. I mean if you liked his Bad jokes and his obnoxiously whiny voice then you need help I guess.

The games on the other hand were amazing!!! apart from those F-ing/no skill required baneling mines...

Painuser and HD are really annoying. HD doesn't know anything about the game, while Painuser complains about cheese as much as Idra.

doa + catspj are definitely my favourites, I think they complement each other well.

personally i cannot listen to wheat so I'd rather mute the stream, but fine if others enjoy him I won't object.

HD and painuser . . . yeah it's objectively bad.

And how do you know that's not supposed to be how you pronounce Ryung? Didn't you watch the live on 3?

They are all quite experienced casters, boosted by the contact with live audience, so the performance is way beyond expectations. I'm very satisfied with the casting at IPL 3.

lack of knowledge of observers who think HD lacks knowledge(more so then other casters) is kind of annoying

Is that really the correct way to say it? I find it hard to believe R = L.

Definitely Apollo

TO BE FAIR though i like all 3 combinations a lot, unlike a lot of events i don't find one particular combination annoying, they're all great.
