I can see those issues seriously affecting casting.. of guy vs guy mud wrestling, not sc2. Your casting is very good orb, keep working on it. Sad as you may think it is, looks are not unimportant in any business related to media. It might not matter to you, it might not matter to me, but it still is good advice to give. | ||

Edit; I agree with Nazgul's sentiments above. I think that is why I don't like you and Gretorp together. Maybe if you casted with someone else or if you two got a lot more experience together I would like it better. but you have casted a season together already so I don't know. | ||

2) Some of the jokes you do with Gretorp is quite off putting and sometimes offensive, try to tone it down 3) You have good analysis overall. So keep it up 4) Getting stuck with a caster like Gretorp doesn't help I know. I am sure you can improve a lot when paired with a more competent caster | ||

If you really have something funny to say, then ok. But don't try to force it. It's not about forcing humor, it's about not being too scared of the spotlight so that you become uptight, see? Speaking in binary, it's not about turning an 0 into a 1, it's about removing the 0 that's turning the 1 into a 0. So my advice -> try to relax, try to enjoy yourself more and maybe take the foot off the "personality breaks". Maybe imagine casting to your best buddies or something. You're definitely doing a good job with the analysis, but don't limit yourself into being just a human-trikoder who only calculates stuff and makes predictions. | ||

I've followed your stream in and out since the beta days. I must say - you have grown a lot over the past year or so. From swearing on stream after losing a game into someone who tries to give genuine analysis during a game, the positive change has been tremendous. The only criticism I have is that you can sometimes criticise players. The best casters never rip on players. Just as the best celebrity talk shows don't criticise the guests they are hosting. Ofcourse they will will banter and make some jokes about the celebrities they invite to talk shows, but they would never rip into them as you have ripped into some SCII pros. There is nothing worse than to hear a caster rip into a player for doing something "wrong" than to then see that player whom you just ripped into, totally dominate his opponent because of the "mistake" he apparently made, which he actually did intentionally as part of his game plan. Things like putting zealots in the front and storming your own units is obviously something you can comment on, but I guess it's good to be diplomatic about how you analyse games. You're one of my favoured casters after Apollo / Day9. | ||

I actually think, that sometimes it IS about forcing humour. And I agree completely with AndAgain (quotes messing with ma brains), that that CAN become a big problem. Orb isn't doing it, and I'm not saying that bringing more personality would be bad, but as long it isn't being forced. Actually, we're all saying the same thing. Relax and just try not to force it orb, cause you're quite the amazing caster. An what Rekrul said about your image is spot on, it is important. | ||
