Also, try not to talk over wolf during exciting parts of games. It feels like wolf sometimes is having to talk over you during the high points. I started off ABSOLUTELY hating your casting when you started with gom, but now I'd say I moderately enjoy it. Good job on your improvement, we need more go getters like you! | ||

Overall, I think your casting is B+ (if we consider Artosis to be the A on this absolute scale.) Where I think you should improve is on your criticism of players desicions. As in all things in life I am sure you attempt to weigh the merits of their desicion (albeit quickly), and then come up with fair-handed analysis. At the moment, I think your internal scale for this weighs too heavily against players, and often times it makes minor mistakes (minor in the absolute sense, but obviously they weigh heavier when every probe/mineral/etc counts in the GSL), you convey to the viewer that in the absolute sense this mistake is terrible, when in reality it is bad in the relative sense. When Artosis or Wolf or Day9 relate these sorts of mistakes they tend to recognize the humanity of such a mistake, e.g. why send your probe that way? why go for ling infestor when he had a robo and could be making colossus? whereas you tend to lambast them for such a mistake. I hope that made sense, gl hf and keep it up you're great! | ||

this is one suggestion I have for you: You often make sentences in this way: [the subject], [the pronoun] [verb]." For example: "The broodlords, they're doing so much damage". "Hero, he's macroing so well" It's fine if you use it occasionally, but it's definitely not how english should be used by default. There's no need to complicate the sentences so often (and you definitely use this pattern way too much), when you can just say: "The broodlords are doing so much damage." "Hero is macroing so well". | ||

To be fair, Artosis (widely accepted to be the best of the best) constantly uses ridiculous grammatical constructions, especially stuff like "Hitting a perfect gateway timing, is Hero!" | ||

I think you are one of the better ENGLISH castor out there. since you know korean, do spare some time to listen to mirror code A Korean stream, and compare to your own. hope it will help you in future casting. rgds | ||

You keep overusing the word(s) "(big) problem". I hear it at least 3-4 times every game. Am I the only one hearing this? -The big problem is player X has no answer for the broodlords. -He has a big problem since he doesn't have a 3rd base. -But player X has no tech, so he has a big problem. and what I also notice (you are not the only one int his), you always talk about structures dying, in the case of Zerg this might be acceptable, but a command center or nexus just doesn't die... Apart from this, I think you're doing pretty good! I think you overrun your co-caster from time to time. I know it's really hard to have the perfect synergy, so it's not a big issue. I shouldn't start comparing to Tastosis :p Keep it up! Edit: Watching GSL now: Symbol vs Squirtle game 1: saying (big) problem 4x  | ||

I've never commented on a caster before, usually I find something positive about a caster that enables me to zone out their quirks or bad habbits. I have never been a huge fan, and that is the reason why I wont be going into great depths explaining my validation of you as a caster. However, this post is concerned with a situation that happened on GSL last thursday, that, because of its nature, made me feel obligated to say something. The situation I am refering to is the one in wich Wolf was giving his description of low fat cheetos (or something like that). He made an argument concerning their usefulness ("you can touch your friend if you want to). I found your reaction to Wolfs said argument to be so blatantly homophobic it felt offensive."If you start touching me, there will be a fist coming away so fast you wont even be able to dodge it." Really? I know this is something many would reply with, but doing so live in front of thousands of people comes off very unproffesional and, for some, even offensive. No matter what your thoughts are on this subject, I would advise you to keep it to yourself or at least modify its form when you are on the air. | ||

To be honest, I almost enjoy this. xD The way the sentence is set up almost makes it more exciting! | ||

The only criticism I would have is that he tends to mix up his tenses a lot, and sometimes it gets on my nerves a bit. Things like "And he does not check for the Mutas" or something for a game which has finished instead of "And he didn't check for the Mutas". It's minor, but it's really the only thing that bothers me. Also, I'm not having a dig, I can't speak two languages, just trying to help. | ||

I just wanted to say I was impressed at the rate of change we've all seen from Khaldor, he has improved significantly and you can definitely see it. Props to the hard work man you deserve it. | ||

I get what he means just fine. The most important thing to me is being honest and respecting your fellow caster - Khaldor is up there with Artosis and tasteless/ Husky ezpz. As for analysis, all casters show their limitations it is normal, unless you had MC, MMA and Symbol grade analysis there will always be a few folks having a cry that pros arnt casting, that is to be expected. Keep it up Khaldor , good job sir ! | ||
