If anyone had to leave gom I am glad its moletrap. The quality of casts diminished substantially whenever he was casting a game.

First of all, good luck to Moletrap casting LoL.

I think it's for the best, since I haven't really been fond of his SC2 casts.

It seemed to me he just lacked insight and knowledge you get from playing a lot, and from what I know about LoL you need a lot of game time to be knowledgeable enough to cast it, so dividing his time between the games might account for his lack of knowledge of SC2.

Again, good luck to him, and I hope this opens space for Incontrol + more Tastossis casting.
So, are you a pessimist? - On my better days. Are you a nihilist? - Not as much as I should be.

I'm sorry but, I'm glad. The guy seemed nice, and he went and lived in Korea to cast Starcraft, but I will never understand why he didnt try to learn more about the game. The mistakes he kept repeating and the lack of knowledge was a little bit too much for a GSL caster imho. Best of luck to him, LoL isnt a bad choice I guess for a caster

I see what you did there.

Anyway, GL to Moletrap!

That is awesome for Moletrap. He is an old school Brood War caster so I can only imagine how special it is to be working and casting events in one of the most legendary e-sport arenas of all time.

Couldn't agree more. I'm very happy to see him moving away from SC2. Not going to hate on him personally or his casting style, but he was definitely not my cup of tea.

He never got to kazooka with the zookas with SC2, I hope he gets more love while casting LoL.

You do realise that while OGN has him for LoL now, with their upcoming move to SC2 he'll be their lead English commentator going into that as well?

That's how I read it anyway.

Best thing that has happened to SC2 in a long time. Now I'll gladly watch even non-top tier games on the GSL.

Agree. Would be awesome with Apollo in GSL. He's one of the absolute smartest casters out there.

Good bye Mole, hope you'll do better with LoL than you did with SC2.
Khaldor and Wolf the only casters left now right? Good casters for the best league
(except form Tastosis)

Now we only need TB to switch so Apollo can have a great co caster.
The curse is real

Well, Apollo just moved to Sweden, i'm not sure if he wants to move again. However, having him cast GSL would still be awesome. I'm thinking (or rather dreaming) Artosis and Apollo for analysis and TB as high energy play-by-play in a casting trio.

And this is why it's better to hire casters that actually love the game and play it a at a high level, so that you don't have to deal with "pseudocasters" following the money.

Moletrap has been doing commentary on broodwar for a LONG fucking time. If you think he switched only because of money you clearly know nothing about him.

Its the constant barrage of hate from sc2 fans that made him switch imo.

Think it is good for GOM and OGN. As casters got better and better Moletrap was falling behind but I feel he will do well in the LoL scene.

As someone who now actively watches a lot of LoL, I kind of wish he would go back to casting SC2... He's even more insufferable as a caster when he knows absolutely nothing about the game he's casting. I hope he actually takes this new gig seriously and does some serious homework to learn this new game. Fortunately for him, the LoL community isn't developed enough to string him up by his toes like the SC2 community did to Kelly Milkis back in the day.
