I'd love to see a single cast with Wolf where he DOESN'T use the expression "This is the (most/biggest/weirdest/etc.) ______ I've ever seen."

Just one.

All the comments about players' hair sound a bit too queer for my taste, but otherwise Wolf is pretty good. Compared to Wolf, I like casters like Tastosis better, I like the Kevin Knocke / Doa pair slightly better, I like Khaldor about as much, I like Rotterdam & Mr. Bitter less, and I like Gretorp / whoever he casts with a lot less.

I dont know why people mute him or complain about him, I could, to some extend, understand why they do about Khaldor or Moletrap, but Wolf knows the game, he's in touch with the korean scene, and is just a nice enthusiastic guy, voted Excellent even tho I still prefer Tastosis, but he'll get there, until then gl to him

He seems to be really good when hes super hyped but maybe a bit lackluster at other times.

I actually can't remember seing him at all. I remember some casts with Khaldor and I think Artosis but I only remember them and not Wolf. He seems to be quite the average, so the others overtone him.

Wolf is my second favourite caster after Artosis, and it's really close. I can see his passion behind his seemingly "lacklustre" speaking style. Also I prefer analytical casting (but Wolf can hype hype hype it up like no other, see: his speech about programing taking so much sacrifice etc in the GuineaPig vs Ganzi game recently... this is the only time a caster has said something that made me switch who I wanted to win the game).

Wolf rocks.

I think Wolf needs to eat a hamburger or 50. Will someone feed the poor boy?

I know i might get hate from a lot of people, but i wish that Tasteless gets send to Code A with Khaldor and Wolf starts casting only Code S with Artosis. They day they casted together was really amazing, they did a great job together simply cuz Tasteless aint analyzing that much while Wolf is capable of cast and analize as well as Artosis. Wolftosis is the best casting duo and hope to see them together.

Wolf is an amazing caster, hope he keeps getting better and better.

I totally agree with you. It would make Code S better, and Code A MUCH better with Tasteless there. Not hating on Tasteless but there's more utility to be gained in swapping him with Wolf, IMHO.

I like Wolf's casting a lot, but lately it feels like he's been unnecessarily critical towards the players which has really been taking away from his appeal for me. A lot of the criticism he makes seems to get shut down promptly by his co-caster, though.

All in all, I find him to be one of the most enjoyable casters no matter who he's paired with, but there's still a few caster duos I'd pick over him- namely Tastosis and Bitterdam.

Wolf, has always been pretty good imo. Not as good as some of the "old-school" casters ... if you can call any sc2 caster old-school, but still quite entertaining. ^.^'

One of the best -- the only reason I don't mute Code A.

Tasteless and Artosis are meant to cast together it wouldn't work well with him and khaldor and wolf is getting use to casting with khaldor. Artosis+ Tasteless are like bread and butter.

Yeah, you can't tear those two apart. But more guest casts (i.e. Tasteless or Artosis OCCASIONALLY subbing in for Wolf/Khaldor, and vice versa, as long as it's mixing things up) would be a very good thing for us viewers as well as the casters. You need to get out of your comfort zone sometimes, and it makes casters themselves better when they get paired up with/influenced by different people.

As I've posted in the feedback thread on gom's forums, I really have to echo the feedback of many many other posters on multiple websites that wolf is too critical of the players. He just is too often incorrect in his assessments of particular decisions, especially when the matchup doesn't involve Protoss. There just must be other things to talk about...he seems to think his main job is to identify players' mistakes. The alive vs fin daybreak game last night is a prime example. Saying that alive used a bad tvt opener that could only be good against cc first when it could also be good against 1 rax FE. Except in egregious cases it's safe to assume that a progamer who's been preparing for a specific match knows a hell of a lot more than wolf about what openers are good.

Given the sheer volume of posts from multiple sources giving this same feedback to Wolf I'm starting to wonder why he hasn't changed at least a little bit.

The poll has about 600 excellents/goods and this thread has about 200 negative posts. Just kinda funny.

Anyone notice he's so obsessed with Korean hairstyles? Even another caster (I forgot who) asked him live in Off The Record why he's so obsessed with korean hair and always mentioning it in his cast.

I think more people may agree with you than you think. I actually really like tasteless and him and Artosis are a great team but his game knowledge hasn't kept up with where the game currently is. I don't know about him being sent down to code A because he still brings a lot to the table but Wolf and Artosis are awesome so I wouldn't mind interchanging or guest casting. But again the casting Archon is still good.
