If you say "This game is over", then it is annoying to a lot of viewers. You can get the exact same information accross, though, by framing it as "This is a horribly difficult position for %PLAYER%, to come back from this he'll have to..." There's always something that could happen to cause a game to go the other way. Pull off a miraculous defense, exploit a serious mistake by his opponent, harass perfectly while forcing a really long game, get off nothing but perfect storms for the next five minutes. By framing it in terms of the game being over, you're dismissing the efforts of the losing player to find some way out. By framining it in terms of the immensity of the challenge to be overcome, you're conveying the same information about the state of play, but in a way that allows for the possibility of a comeback and gives you a frame for describing how incredible it is in the one game in a hundred when it actually happens. On the other hand "predicting" the game is about to be over makes him look knowledgeable. Not just him but casters in general are too caught up over being cool and witty (Tastosis effect perhaps?) over professional, thought out entertainment like that. No wonder the koreans are so much better. | ||

Calling gg too early just makes him look stupid. MC vs Squirtle game today for example. MC was soon to have immortal. Calling gg before fight even happen is just stupid. when squirtle destroyed artosis pylon, all wolf and khaldor talk was how MC is done and he cant do anything to win this game and did not concentrate on game itself MC drop immediately 2 pylons to those gates while microing his army made all right decisions and all i heard was how he is going to lose. | ||

My feedback from todays Code S matches would be dont call GG too early, It's anti climatic. I noticed you stopped doing it later in the cast and I appreciate that. other than that youre doing a great job and keep it up! | ||

Too many bad calls, over excitement, too much screaming and I just got really annoyed by it. Bad Wolf!But of course some people liked it and thought it was the best casting ever, which just goes to show how people have different standards. Foreign casters have too little energy. When we have someone put out enough to rival the Korean casters, people complain? Dear jesus. | ||

Its not just about how loud you are. Of course this its impossible to be objective about it but to me Wolf sounded a bit fake and I didnt get excited through his loud play by play. When Old tasteless would cast BW by himself he would shoult like crazy and I'd have goosebumps all over, when Wolf does it i dont enjoy it. I do realize that this isnt constructive in the slightest though I wish i could be more helpful | ||

He'll see a single marine die and go "THE LEAD HAS CHANGED, THE ZERG IS GOING TO WIN" (rash example, but that's my general impression when he casts) So if you like that over-hyped crazy "gogogogogo" type casting, then do it up, I just prefer the more knowledge based casting and the issue when khaldor and wolf are casting is that simply they both fit the same role as shout casters, and as much as Khaldor want's to analytically cast, he just can't do it... : ( from my perspective at least. He is over the top with the random yelling, but its not the same as other casters when they get hyped up. Maybe because of his monotone voice it just doesn`t really register for me or get me hyped. I think Wolf is only good when he is solo casting because he spends less time making it sound depressing and more time calling what is happening. | ||

I heard that listening to Mozart was increasing intellectual prowess, therefore I suggest him that. In all seriousness, it would be great if he stopped staring/nodding at the camera with a fake straight-face in between his unbearable fake laughs, wrong game calls and rash judgements which for some reasons are refered to as "casting". | ||
