That's mostly because Wolf's doing the analytical side and Khaldor the play-by-play. I think Wolf is a really good caster. There's a lot to learn from him, Khaldor.

Go Khaldor!
You are doing an Excellent Job!

Khaldor so biased for Leenock Always finding a way in which he's ahead, even if game 2 vs Roro when Leenock was behind a lot, he was saying that he is far ahead 
Doing great job casting anyways. Love your dedication and all the hard work you do for SC2 and e-sports, keep it up!

I do llike your passion and your casting in general, but I wouldn't tune in to you if you weren't casting the GSL. There's a few things that I feel you could improve, mostly language things, because it makes me feel like you're on autopilot which sort of kills it for me after watching for too long. Maybe you are running on autopilot since you're casting so much, but if that's the case you're casting too much and maybe should cut down on it a bit? Take care of your passion man :p
For example player introductions. "The blue zerg playing, starting for TSL..." - "TSL Symbol!" etc. Imo, please add some variance or at least stop saying "starting for" and the teamname. Also you keep saying "x after x", "at the same time", "he wants to..." stuff you're saying over and over again. I'm sure there are more things but I can't think of it off the top of my head.
Otherwise, great job, keep it up.

for what it's worth Khaldor and Wolf make a great casting combo. He is good at what he does and puts a lot of time and effort into his work. It has been a long long long time since I could enjoy Code-A because of the previous bad casters. So thanks Khaldor for you sometimes inappropriate comments and good casting!

I don't feel his english is bad, just have an accent to it.

His english is pretty awesome, in the circumstances.
|
What circumstances would that be?

He overuses "every single x", and often incorrectly at that. It's very common that Khaldor says "he kills/loses every single colossus/drone/sentry/infestor/etc." when in fact some survive. Other than that, great casting! The chemistry with Wolf that has developed over the last months is really good.

But you might be happy to know that I am done posting here. I don't even know why I started to post in this thread again as it is. It's pointless to argue with trolls. It's one thing to read and try to take something out of what was written here to improve, but getting involved into these bullshit wannabe discussions is the most stupid thing ever. And I'm a complete idiot for letting it happen again.
Like you said, its the internet. People just take it for granted how easy it is to be mean to each other. I think you do a good job, and so do many others. Its also hard to take criticism sometimes, but when you ask for it... expect the worst. Unfortunately thats just going to happen, and people will be careless with their words and some people will just flat out be mean... or some just wrong.
You're passion and enthusiasm for the game comes through in your casts. You come off as a very like-able person in your casts, as i'm sure you are in general but dont let the criticism get to you. Like you said, they're faceless people, and in any real life setting, I cant imagine people being so cruel to each other. I certainly hope not. All the best.

Khaldori i think you're doing just great! Keep up the goody work!

Having to speak a non-native language at a pretty fast rate live in front of thousands of people for a living, maybe? Show some sympathy here, mang ;-)
For me his biggest problem with the English language is his use/not-use of the present perfect. Whenever he says "He already started his Lair" instead of "He HAS already started his Lair" (and he doesn't say "He's already", either) I cringe. It's a common problem of Germans with the present perfect / simple past differentiation, since in German you can use both tenses interchangebly (in many cases).
Aside from that I enjoy his casts a lot. When he started casting in Korea I thought him to be a bit bullyish towards his co-casters, which I disliked quite a bit but it has improved to a point where I would say it's non-existent anymore.
It's a tough job pleasing a tough crowd - and you will never succeed in pleasing everybody. So I don't mind him not even trying to do so - I surely wouldn't.
Keep up your good work.

This is a pureply personal opinion and might not reflect the majority, although I know people have complained about this besides me before.
I really think you still focus way to much on what the players and doing wrong, basically sounding condecending "why is he not doing xxx??? why isnt he doing yyy???". Focus less on those types of things and maybe try to explain why he is doing what he is doing. We have full information, the players do not.
I hope you can take this as constructive critizism and not give me a "haters gonna hate" answer cause thats not what this is. I just dont think its a god way of casting.
I havnt read through the entire thread but it seems like you also have a tendancy to take what might be viewed as constructive critizism as hating and/or trolling just cause you dont agree. What you feel when casting and what the viewer feels might not be close to the same thing. What Im saying here aswell as the zerg bias thing has been mentioned several times so its not one guy hating, that much we know atleast.
GL in the future mr german! Met alot of you guys in the swedish nature this last month :D.

I love you Khaldor, but I had to put you down as average. I feel like sometimes you get your words wrong sometimes and sometimes say the wrong players name.
|
i dont like moletrap/khaldor/wolf/doa, i only like artosis/tasteless/day9/rotterdam/apollo/chill/grubby/tlo
|
Wolfdor has been amazing lately. You guys have really upped your game and it is much appreciated. I really like the caster dyncamic of wolf being the kinda "oddball" and khaldor being uncomfortable by it. congrats, especially loved the energy from the supernova creator game.

wolfdor is better than tastetosis A LOT BETTER
|
Yep same thoughts here. Wolfdor is sick good now, probably my favorite caster duo. I think the reason why you guys are so good together is that you cast more like best friends rather than work colleagues. Tastosis has that similar feel and that is one of the reasons why they are so successful. In short, keep it up the great work!
