EPTEdit: I really like that you are one of the few casters who actually criticize players when they do stupid decisions we need more casters who has the balls to do that.

but you tend to critise the players too often. If you'd focus more on the positive prospects a players move has, it could build up to more suspense in a game. For me as a viewer it kills the game to a certain point. (i guess the reason for this is that your a player as well so sometimes you just go "oh yeah, if he's getting this done and going for that now, the zerg won't have any chance." Fading this out or maybe start playing random would help ^^) But keep up the good work! Youre working very hard and spend a lot of time (staying up all night casting) | ||

And the biggest positive thing you really need to be lauded for is the fact that you cast every fucking tournament out there, whether it's in Korea or EU, no matter what time it is for you. It's incredible and gives so much additional entertainment value to the community that you'll always be a hero in my book. :D What I really like about your casting, especially for the GSL, is that you are not trying to be a light version of Tastosis. You're just being yourself. Most other casters don't have as much experience as you do and try to imitate the most popular casting duo. Unfortunately you can only lose if you are constantly compared to them. | ||

It doesn't matter whether it is football, rugby, ice-hockey, Starcraft or any other sports - the viewers always believe they know way more about what's happening on the screen than the casters or even the players on the field themselves not to mention the coach. Everybody is a better player when he watches. :D | ||

I believe on this morning's cast you said something along the lines "this is the best xxxxx ever in all the time" so, basically only subtle things regarding your English. You are quite entertaining, and yeah you can always improve your game knowledge, but well, that's also why you don't cast alone, you don't have to know it all, yet . | ||

However there's still some room for improvement I feel you do get a bit over-critical of certain decisions the players make and keep saying why you don't understand why they're doing X or Y and harp on about it a bit long. There are some cases where this is absolutely fine like the 1-base bio push in that TvT on bel'shir (I think ryung vs bomber?) and he walked down the path where bombed had tower vision and let time for 3 bunkers to go up. This made no sense so your lengthy criticism was completely justified! Instead of saying "if he just did Y and Z he could be in SUCH a better position" as much, just say it once if need-be and move on. I feel you go back to this approach a little bit too much and sometimes when you've missed the true intent of the players actions it seems a bit off-track. Oh and good handling of the situations where moletrap loses focus as hes over-focusing on something and seems to completely miss what's actually going on, you are unafraid to straight up correct him and quickly get the cast back in the right direction. Overall you are doing an amazing job and I hope you stay in Korea a while longer! Don't stay up too late bringing us content on your stream from the GOM house! | ||

You both are great play-by-play casters, but I think you lack a bit of game knowledge (often making wrong calls or obviously incorrect analysis), and Wolf complements this very well, while Moletrap has kinda the same problem. So yeah, if I had an advice it would be to work on you game knowledge (easier said than done though  ), or get GOM to hire a fourth caster more focused on analysis to avoid having Moletrap and you cast together  Other than that I like your voice a lot :D | ||

One thing you can improve is that for some reason you keep changing the names of players and/or units like constantly ,dont know why nor how to fix that. nevertheless great casting overall | ||

I think you miss some things, your analyses can be a little bit better, and I still think you talk entirely too much, but you're always asking for feedback and always working towards that feedback so ya know what, just keep on keeping on. A+ dude. | ||

Oh one thing that irritates me about you casting, is that you say "really really" all the time. I know every caster has some phrases that they use often, but maybe tone down on the "really really" thing a bit. Other than that just keep up your good work | ||

I thought you did a tremendous job. Your style is very good. You know how to insert your passion without being obnoxious, an aspect that was really on display this morning opposite Moletrap. You also clearly took the time to study the stats of the players to prepare for the group you were casting and seem to know what you are talking about analytically. I don't mind if you state when you disagree with your co-caster. You were right every time you did today I think. So good job, keep working hard. It's obviously paying off for you. Best of luck. (And so people don't think I'm just slamming Moletrap here, I really like when he talks about who players were in BW, it's a very helpful connection point to bridge two parts of my brain. Moletrap has no control over the things that I dislike in his casting.) | ||

I started watching ur casts back at the good old wc3 times and it's still a pleasure everytime I turn on GOM and see that Khaldor is casting. Of course there are still some things that could be improved a bit, for example get more music for ur own3d stream : ) As you said you will come back to Germany for Xmas and New Year and then go back to Korea, i really hope that you won't stop casting for GOM. Except Tastosis ur definitly my favorite Caster, and u Team up very well with Moletrap and Wolf. So keep on going ! p.s. Thank u very much for Casting the KSL, great Time everytime I tune in. | ||
