Here's something that I love doing with my spare time at work: watch the GSL VODs.
Problem? Uncontrollable spine tingling and goosebumpingness!
If you're anything like me, you also suffer from this condition; that one moment where the roaring voice of the crowd or the simple and explainable excitement of the professional casters make you lose control over the stability of your own body!
That's the passion that some people have for e-Sports coming through to you, across the screen, whether your sitting at home on your not-so-confy chair, or with your friends at a Barcraft.
I like to grab some of those memorable moments and edit what's being said as I picture it.
Why? Because, then, anyone can understand the feeling that we, e-Sports lovers, feel.
Here are some examples of what I've done:
[Warboss Artosis] Have you ever heard Artosis belch out a war shout? You have? I'm not surprised!
This one is absolutely his best so far! WAAAGH!
[Death of Tasteless] Watch this 4th segment, where Artosis goes into actual in-game numbers and beyond, as Nestea rapes the fabric of reality itself!
Also, Tasteless dies.
[Oh My Gosh] Artosis man-crush for Nestea is cute at times... other times it's just plain awesome!
Watch how Tasteless sets Artosis straight during his disbelief of a Nestea comeback!!
[I'm Nestea!] Tastosis just lose their voice and completely rage over Nestea's comeback victory!
[Nukegasm] Moletrap gets so excited with SlayerSBoxeR nuclear strike during an attack over Avenge's natural that he just screams his lungs out in an epic casting!
I hope you enjoy this, I really had a blast editing them!
P.S.: I'm open to suggestions for my next instalment.
Haha! very nice! :D Love these vids! ;D What about that one game... Hmm, I think it is nestea, where that one baneling landmine lands, artosis goes "oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god" etc XD Can't remember who he was playing and what tournament but that is a good one I think!
edit: found it in the "One Year Down" video ^__^ its oGsTOP vs IMNesTea GSL Super Tournament Ro16 ! ^^
I have to tell you, I had no idea how text animation could be so funny. This is GREAT! Great work and I hope you keep this up. Truly made me laugh. Oh, by the way... Nerchio approves

Nestea vs. Anypro Prime on Dual Sight where Nestea does a spine crawler rush on Anypro and Tastosis is confused about Nestea moving three drones alone across the map + rushed lair tech until the spines go down and they start screaming OH MY GOOOOOOODDD!! NESTEA IS THE MOST BRILLIANT MAN THE WORLD!!!

I remember that game destinctively as well - Would love to see those couple of minutes as well - I have paid for the VOD, just too lazy to look through their archives :>

I'm still just a really ambicious little editor.. I try to make what I can on my spare time, but I'll never upload anything that I won't be 100% satisfied with!
Really cool. Editor note: Third video, dropping is spelled, 'droping.' Can this be fixed post pub? Regardless, I love the dual effect in the third video of both voices overlapping graphically, and the waver in moletraps wail.

I understand where you are coming from, but I must make these observations:
The way that the font is edited in this clip doesn't reflect the excitement of the casters, they could just be talking fast about onions and footbal and it would look the same. This edit is more on the likes of subtitles.
Also, playing video behind the words will make you chose between focusing on what's written or focusing on what's happening behind. Again, one of my main purposes is to let anyone enjoy these clips, Starcraft player or not!

I don't see how the non-SC2 people will comprehend these video as entertaining at all. :/ I just showed my cousin your video and he was like meh. I don't know about other people, but I had no problem focusing both the background video and the subtitles.

I actually showed my girlfriend these videos and she doesn't play or follow sc2 at all, but she was thought they were awesome.

I love Moletrap, was really good having DoA as a co caster for that as well, because he's quieter and it doesn't turn into a shouting match like other casting teams.
edit: maybe add 5 or so seconds of an outro to your vids on the end just to give the viewer a few seconds to fully absorb the short burst of awesome they have just listened to and read instead of them ending so abruptly.

What? A subtitled highlight real? Why not just watch the game instead? Op's videos were a different type and he shouldn't change the way he made them.

Absolutely agree. OP's videos are centered on the commentary, not on the actual game - that's what makes them stand out from every other highlight video.
Hahahaha very entertaining I love the colors and animations!
Please make sure you spell the words right though (unless they're obviously being spelled wrong for some sort of effect). Like "droping" should be "dropping" in video three, right?
I don't know why but hearing thos sound bits without the text in them is not really funny at all. Add the text the way you did and these are pretty funny. Well done
^ Lol @ the quality but you need to do this. You need to. The other videos posted in the thread so far are in fact epic, but your videos are too focused on the commentary, where the casters are practically going wild, so I don't think they just suit.

Edit: Found a better quality video.
+1 to this. During the time of the baneling landmine is amazing ^^
In the Korean Weekly (official GSL qualifier) and NASL, you can catch some gems of Orb (i don't have concrete suggestion, he does them almost always). When the situation is intense, his wpm (words per minute) peaks to inhuman levels.
Omg, yes! Those are probably my three favorite games of the GSL so far, at least the three games that have left the biggest memories with me.
Boxers nuke was by far the best/most intense nuking in a GSL game i have seen yet, with his gosu EMPs and nuking all those units warping in, only the emperor could be so ballin!
This was so awesome! I really liked all three vids, but 2 & 3 were my favs. sooo glad you put in moletrap and doa. they get soooooooooo much hate, but I really like both of them
I don't know of any particular vods to recommend. I would just say go for all of the GSL guys, cuz they rock, along with Husky and Day9 of course. TotalBiscuit might be a good choice also.
Oh man, Artosis has some awesome screaming, and the text stuff on the Moletrap/Doa one was awesome (And the screams in that one had me laughing pretty hard).

Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH OH OH !!! I second this.
please please do the final match between nestea and FXO.sC(then) in GSL.. i think its on crossfire and nestea holds back with everything until the very very last and hits back and sc ggs! please please do that..
Totally awesome. I think you cut it off a little too soon, let the casters "calm down" for around 5 seconds instead of just cutting off right after the action. I can't wait to see more of these.

So great! I love Moletrap and Doa! I remember watching that game and feeling exactly the same way as moletrap, just without the high pitched scream. Good stuff!

im amazed at how letters guiding voices or vice versa can have such massive effects on the entertained portion of a brain. quite interesting and very good, loved the last one most, because of the angles texts and it was helarious captured them perfectly. thats really cool. <3
im not even editing it, i need to go back to school T_T too much internet typing!
lolol, the last vod, where ARMY is slightly angled and its like a cartoon character is getting strangled it makes me laugh so much man ahah, im sure everyone interprets it in their own imaginative way, but damn look what im typing simply from text to voice combo's thats the juices your getting my brain to pump lol. i love it!

Sweet mother of jesus that was hilarious. My boss just looked at me like a freak when I literally started cracking up for no reason when I'm supposed to be working hahaha.

Moletrap ain't my favourite caster. I dont dislike him in anyway I just think there are better ones. However... That armyyyyyyy shout he did got me laughing for a long time. Amazing edits. Keep 'em comming.
Tastosis casting is so hilarious that I often have GSL vods on while I'm cooking and doing stuff around the house and don't even have time to watch, because it's like listening to a humor show ... the actual games are just a bonus, not a necessity :D

You should try and edit the video by Nestea where he spines the front of (Nada???) who went Forge Fast Expo. Im not sure if I'm right, anyway can provide a GSL link?

Those were awesome! Very cool concept and execution. As a suggestion I would recommend GSL Nov. Ro32 Group B Set 1 Nestea vs SC. Artosis has some great lines while Nestea breaks the bunker rush.
Oh man, love this! I don't have any suggestions, but I'm certainly subscribing to you, I don't want to miss the next installments. Great effects in use.

Man this Moletrap moment is so awesome, I wish I'd seen it live. Like a guy said on youtube: " I think Moletrap is secretly the former lead singer of an 80s metal band."

Yeah, I know what you mean! It's like radio hype, if you are watching the game, and hearing the radio at the same time, it's like they are broadcasting a whole different game!

They definitely (had to google how to correctly spell this word, as there are many Grammar Nazis lurking about) are! It would also help if you also PM me your suggestions, easier to keep track of!
awesome job, OP! could you put all those videos into one?
would make it way easier for us to link to it and spread it. would like to show them at a barcraft. these text videos show the drama in such a great reduced and minimalistic way
I saw the Nestea vs sC vid and the Moletrap Nuke vid a while ago, and the two new videos are also quite refreshingly awesome. I'm looking forward to more awesome videos out of you in the future.
Leuk, you actually had me believe that Artosis said "fluorescentguysomethingjust", and I felt very weird about that. I kept playing that part thinking "wow, this is messed up man !". But now I know. wp

Ahah ^^ <3 Glad you liked it!
At least you're not like the other ppl who just correct me on that :D He actually says "for the rest of this cast I'm just gonna..."!
Best line ever. I laughed for 30 minutes. You should get that shiz up there ASAP. (Forgive me I don't remember which season, but ya I think it was like game 2 or 3.)
Edit: I forgot to thank you. Great posts, keep it up!
Edit #2: I found it!
At the end of that video is the quote. So classic. So epic.

What happened here? No new updates? We need a caster's gone wild for the GSL Finals Game 5 from the other night, when the Vortex hits. That would be epic.

Hell yeah. The videos were so awesome. I want to see more of them!! After this weekend with the GSL finals and the start of ProLeague, I am actually getting excited again for SC2. =)
