Hi Khaldor, you have been sounding great lately and really seem like you want to be good at your job; you and Wolf have a great synergy.

Keep having fun , peace

You can always improve Khaldor, but I think you do a really nice job for the GSL and for GOMTV. I feel like you and Wolf have great casting chemistry and I love the way that you both commentate. Keep up the good work, maybe you guys can be Wolfdor

I will start with the things that bug me the most. You tend to talk over everyone you cast with, especially in times of action. You are always talking over wolf when I am watching the GSL and he doesn't ever get to say much until you are finally done with your rant (I say rant for lack of better word). Another thing, that many people have already said, is when you raise your voice your pitch goes up like crazy. I am not even sure if you play the game at all from your casts, and I am saying that because it just doesn't seem like you are very analytical. When you are analyzing or making a prediction of a game you are often wrong or not very close. To sum everything up: A lot of my friends, and I, mute the stream when you're casting.

A lot of these problems can be fixed by practice and playing the game a little more to get a better understanding of it. Again I know that this sounds a little harsh, but I'm sure as you know you can either get pissed off and call me a faggot or you can take what I have said and use it in a constructive way. I hope to see how you are doing in the future.


This. Also, his english could be better.

Khaldor, I was a bit frustrated with you at first, but wanted to be supportive because you clearly have talent (and I don't want to be like 90% of the commenters on GOMTVs website). So I must say that your casting has gotten a lot better since your joining GomTV. It's clear you care about improving and delivering something better, so thanks for taking the time to get feedback and actually use it. So thanks!

Well I think your English skills were okay when you started, but to be honest, it doesn't feel like you're actively trying to improve it really. By that I mean not just talking English because you need to anyways, but learn new vocabulary, work on your pronunciation and slowly work it into your casting.
That said I obviously don't know how much you're really working on it, but it just doesn't seem to show.

Because by now I personally get rather annoyed by the repitition of the very same words again and again and the lack of more complex, enjoyable phrases. Especially, as others already mentioned, in the heat of the moment when you say things like "and he is attacking the xyz", "why is he doing this?".

Another thing is your way of criticising players. You often keep asking the already mentioned "why is he doing this?", "I cannot imagine why he would do that", "this makes just no sensel"
Ask this question ones, and if you really don't know the answer, just let it be. Call it an obviously bad move and be done with it.
Better of course, would be if you could come up with a valid reason for a player's decision occasionally. Because more often then not I feel like its quite obvious why a player might have done what he did. At least for someone who was a Master player at some point in time. Or well if you need to freshen up your game knowledge, better do it and start playing again.

In most cases there's a rather simple reason anyways:
The player does not see the whole map nor what he other player is teching, building etc., which the casters obviously do, and made a miscalculation thanks to that.
The player felt like he had no more chance or choice anyways and just prayed his action may somehow work.
The player just frigging missmicroed, happens all the time of course. Sometimes you just fail to split up your units groups correctly before a battle and thus you control stuff way worse than you would normally or you thought you send units to a place but didn't because you didn't click your mouse correctly that one time etc. pp.
A lot things are just simply missclicks, which are a player's fault of course, but there's no deeper meaning behind it then.

I used to hate Khaldor with all my heart, but truth be told: he has improved his casting A LOT. He still screams a little when he gets excited, but it seems to be he is working on that issue. His game sense is improving, but still he states a lot of the obvious, and that's not a game sense-wise problem: he needs to start analyzing the games instead of saying whatever is on screen. When it comes to play-by-play, his casting is very good except when he starts screaming/shouting/yelling/whatever. When he is paired with Wolf, things get awesome, because Wolf analyses the game whereas Khaldor casts the play-by-play. So, overall, keep on improving and you'll become one of my favorite casters.
No Pain, No Gain.

I am a fan. To be totally honest you are the main reason I started watched Code A without the sound being on mute. A huge improvement! I wasn't the biggest fan of your earlier casting, but lately it has been great.

Isn't he German? For a second language he speaks English incredibly well and with minimal accent (most of the time anyway).

EDIT: Keep up the good work!

I always cringe when Khaldor is casting. Nothing against him at all, I actually like the guy. I used to watch some of his casts before he was a GSL caster and I liked them just fine. But as a GSL caster I'd rather hear anybody else. When it's a solo cast I can't even listen to it. I need one of the other personalities there to make it bearable for me.

You do have talent and potential tho, for sure! Casting in your 2nd language, being able to speak with confidence and it's just not easy. Not everyone can do what you do, and for that I commend you!

glhf Khaldor!

Khaldor I enjoy your casts (and gave you the highest vote), but my one criticism is that you tend to get focused on one thing when there are multiple battles happening at once. Often you do not even realize there is a second battle, or drop in the main, or whatever. Try to keep a closer eye on the mini map. Overall, though, I like your casting and hope you keep doing GOM for a long time.

@ shiniSama, Khaldor is one of the more gaming-experienced casters out there. As far as i can remember he played masters in EU.

After having watched quite a few GSL casts: Khaldor, could you please stop comparing supply and worker counts all the time? xD Sometimes you almost focus more on it than talking about what's actually going on in the game I feel like, and I can see the supplies myself. I personally find it a bit distracting, and something better could be said from a caster with as much knowledge as you.
Also, not that the English accent is bad, but I feel like it could be worked on a bit more.

I think it's important to compare worker counts thou. You can't see them and they are obviously important.

You do a very good job, but you seem to repeat (as do many other casters) filler expressions over and over again, sometimes it is a bit annoying. I think "there's no doubt about that" is one of them. Try and do random talk instead of filler expressions, I know it's difficult I use them all the time in real life.

I've been following this game since release and have been following your stream as well. For some reason, Own3d.tv is all I can get here at work, so twitch and GOM dont work For that reason, I started watching your stream a while ago when you were only doing german and speaking broken english.

Your english has come a long way since then and I get to watch GOM when I wake up in the morning and I think you're doing a fantastic job there. Keep up the good work.

Good casting, but you have to realize that wolf says some really funny stuff at times and not criticize his jokes!


I kind of like that dynamic between the two. It's one of the reasons I like them as a caster pair. Wolf makes nerdy/bad jokes, and Khaldor makes fun of him for it. It keeps it interesting, and personally, i find it very amusing XD.
The multiplying villanies of man do swarm upon him.
