not personally a fan of moletrap, but wish him the best of luck in his transition to LoL, should it be as simple as khaldor's tweet made it appear

There has been no official word and this thread is just a giant pile of moletrap haters who probably did not even fully read the OP.


This, basically. It's really sad to see so much hate on the poor guy because of stupid reasons like not liking his voice, etc.

There are a few people with legitimate reasons for why they dislike him, but it's mostly full of "LOL FINALLY."

I'm guessing you like a lot of terrible singers as long as the lyrics are good? But even his "lyrics" are terrible. He's a commentator. Half voice/charisma and info/insight . He had none of those things going of him. I'm sure he's a great guy but this wasn't his calling.

Moletrap has actually come in to his own for LoL casting. His "screechyness" is actually much less screechy. Hated as a SC2 caster, love as a LoL caster. Yay Moletrap!

So what happened to his own update? Can't even make a little note himself on twitter or something?

Because that is up to the community right?


Oh no, he has an opinion, abandon ship.


Actually it has nothing to do with his opinion or anything else, I was actually just asking does the community have the option to keep moletrap? The answer is no because he went elsewhere unless he states otherwise, moletrap made his decision.

To what you said though, I have no idea what point you are trying to make or anything because it makes no sense. I was not criticizing him liking moletrap nor do I dislike moletrap.

I pretty much agree with the general consensus here. Moletrap's voice and casting style are just too irritating to overlook. He would be tolerable if he had some extreme insight into the game or a stronger sense of humor, but he's mediocre on all accounts. I know that's a rough thing to say of someone that aspires to be a caster, but it is what it is. You can have all the passion in the world but if you don't have the voice/talent, you're not going to be accepted by many. Personality only gets you so far.

To be honest though, I actually found myself watching his casts for comic relief much in the way you can be entertained by an awful movie. It was hilarious to count how many times he'd interrupt Wolf's analysis to point out the worker counts at irrelevant times, or hearing Doa make a joke and Moletrap completely missing it.

i dont find his voice irritating the slightest bit. Khaldor's accent and stuttering is more distracting. but i'm not saying he should be fired. nor did i particularly like doa because of his monotony and lack of insight. the only 1 i didnt approve of was kelly.

i will miss moletrap, his sc1 commentary after klazart was what got me into sc and thus sc2. thanks for everything moletrap and all the best. still hope to see you casting sc2, perhaps for OGN! would be great to hear him cast sc1 pros playing sc2.

For Esport to grow, we need more people that study the game like artosis. The casters need to tell us new information, the new trend of the match ups, maps, builds, strats. And so far Artosis is the only one truly staying on top. Moletrap, khaldor just repeat whatever is happening on the screen.

Wolf is also one of the few that know what he is talking about.

While I was not a huge fan of his casting overall, I do not hate Moletrap and can easily watch his games over many other casters. I just hope things get worked out or whatever and good luck to him on his future.

Its interesting how Moletrap publically announced he was casting OGN LoL and then never thanked the SC2 community or even the Brood War community for all its love and support over the years. Days have gone by since this information was leaked that he is no longer employed by GOM and we have recieved nothing official from anyone involved. I'm wondering if GOM should be the ones to make this announcement not Moletrap himself.

But the SC2 community has only hated on him, why should he thank the SC2 community?

Based on the comments on this thread, I`m not sure how much thanking I would want to do except perhaps fans from his sc2gg days...
