You may say whatever you want, even if it's not in tune with the TL hive mind. At my first job I was told a complaint is actually a compliment, for it gives one the chance to improve. If customers (e.g. watchers/listeners) bother to comment, at least they care, if they don't, they'll just walk away and you find yourself wondering why.


I know but I was overly harsh to good-willed people and that doesn't really work in a community where average and sub-par performances are easily forgiven because 'they support esports' even though they are paid for their work by (to some extent) the season passes costumers buy. Ok, /sarcasm.

It just doesn't do any good. Even if I actually give constructive crisicism, i.e. try to tone down the accent, I get called elitist prick for no reason by probably a very young person so what's the use. 'Accent is no issue because it's a game of Starcraft' lol what kind of argument is that. I shouldn't even waste time on that actually haha.
If you're gonna be an English-speaking caster you should try to work on ironing out the accent because it distracts a lot and it's downright annoying. At least it is to me and I consider myself pretty normal when it comes to pretty much all subjects, so there must be more people that think the same. Obviously everyone understands Khaldor just fine because his English is fine. It's the German accent he needs to drop to improve his casting-voice.

odd how to consider yourself to be in the norm when it comes to the accent issue when it seems that the majority of people don't have a problem with it, me included, and i'm 100% american.

I really think it's important to avoid preemptive calling of the end of the game.

Other than that good job.

It was merely a joke

AS to Khaldor's casting, I like it. Perhaps, as someone mentioned, you shouldn't call games as early as you do, allthough its obvious

Hey Khaldor,

your doing a good Job. There's not much to criticise, and I'm always happy to follow your streams.

Once I showed an english Friends of mine one of your German casts a while ago. He liked it better than the english cast we were watching before, although he didnt understand a word. Thats the stuff right there, conveying your excitement for the game even through language barriers.

Keep it up!
Skill is when luck becomes a habit.

The biggest critique i have for you is just to be more relaxed when it comes to talking to your co-caster. Dont try and stump him or whatever, if he makes a mistake try to cover for him and smooth over the transition, maybe watch how tastosis does it, they have a good back and forth because they are always covering for each other and being overly positive, rather than trying to find fault. Not saying you are but try to keep it in the back of your mind.
Look for the flaw that lost the game not the flaw in the game.

Hey Khaldor, you are doing a good job!

There are some points that need to be mentioned: Please don't overuse!! the following phrases, they come up way to often without variation:

- in order to
- to be able to
- a little bit.... sometimes "a little" without the bit is enough
- huge... "That would be huge"

By figuering out these small flaws you would be able to make your casting go a little bit smoother in order to appeal to a huger audience ;P.

I really enjoy your casting- plenty.

But my mom insists you sound like an irishman. Are you?

I think you are doing a pretty good job of it considering everything.

You have improved from where you where mostly just describing what was happening in front of us (like listening to a cast on the radio) to what is also going on around in the game and comments on the meta game (which I appreciate).

I love your dedication and enthusiasm and I am sure you will only be getting better.

I also like how you are fueled by chocolate chip cookies. yummy.

You're doing a good job! however you did some misses today (23/12). Some minor mistakes about names and teams but that's understandable with your casting schedeule.

Overall you're doing a good job.

*Feedback*
Something that most caster doesent pay attention too is the pool timings of Z. It's a huge difference if the Z is doing a 12 or 14 pool and sometimes I see casters saying that he did a 12 pool when he did a 14 pool and the other way around.
Even when the Z is doing an early pool it's important to know if he's doing a 6/7/8/9/10 pool. It makes a huge different.

Maybe I'm a bit nitpicky but I play zerg so I know how much it matters.

Notice that this is not something that only you are doing wrong. It's common among all casters. Even the best!
I've even seen casters saying that he did a normal 14 pool when he went for 9 pool.

Hey Khaldor,

I think you are an amazing caster, and one of the best solo casters. Really enjoy your work (and cooking)!

I really enjoy your casting, you're one of my favourites when you're on right up there with tastosis who I consider the best. If you're casting a game with wolf or whoever I enjoy it just as much as Nick and Dan personally.

Keep up the good work man, it's appreciated when I'm watching GSL late at night and it's the casting that make the matches more exciting than they normally would be.
