If he reads this himself would be good
-Don't try to make every joke work, you aren't Tastosis; its like you are scratching to find some kinda laugh in whatever you are talking about sometimes. I feel like if i was your co-caster with you i could say anything and you would try to make it work to burn time. It would be good if you could derail my garbage topic that i would bring up.
-Too much interest in things we all know you aren't interested in; maybe its small talk to kill time (Ex: everything you say about hair) I would be more interested if you could drop some fun facts about the players aside from "He's doing good."
-Don't say "There is no way of coming back" because you have been wrong on that multiple occasions; instead you should try to look from the losing players perspective at that moment and say something like "The only way he/she can win now is if he can get another pylon up and get out an immortal because its so effective vs stalkers" (squirtle MC was it?)
-I like the way you dress

Wolf knows you are supposed to say "spoiler alert" before the spoiler right? LOL

I rather appreciate Wolf's casting. In fact the only thing that really annoys me, which happens 0 to 4 times per game, and lasts for about 5 seconds (so this is acceptable, therefore I voted "good"), is when he speaks like a 5 year old kid that always has everything he wants asking something to his parents, but in a totally different context : "he is coming with his armyyyyyyy !" - "you better be readyyyyyy" etc etc. Artosis was doing this in the beginning, but almost never does it anymore. Overall, a very good caster imo, that's the only easily-improvable remark I have for him.

i thought wolf was great when he first started and now he's my favorite :D
also, he's probably the best player out of the casters

I voted fair, but I won't listen to him. Sometimes he casts the first couple days of code S because Tastosis is out of town and I just skip those. He is ok, but he is also droll and boring. He basically just tells you what's on the screen, but with a technical eye. I prefer the mixed style of Tastosis. I feel like they cast the whole game, rather than just what's happening at the moment, and their banter is amusing sometimes. I just don't get the same entertainment value from Wolf.

Shocker.

A commentator who tells you what's on the screen? What will they think of next!

One thing that annoys me about wolf is his excited voice. He emphasizes the end of every sentence and it's just very repetitive. I'm sure he's gotten feedback on this so I wish he'd work on it.
|
So much passion tonight wolf started to lose his voice. Great job casting.

I overall like this caster. He needs to work a bit more on his synergy with Khaldor (they interrupt each other from time to time, and it seem that their talk time isn't really equal) besides that, totally decent casting.
|
Wolf and Khaldor made FXO vs MVP soooo exciting to watch! I enjoy this combo more than Tastosis these days. Especially in the set Lucky vs Keen (? I think ?) I was amazed when Khaldor explained Lucky's kind of all-in attack and mentioned what Lucky was aiming for with it, because he actually spoke with Lucky himself about his strategy. I bet even Artosis doesn't have THIS kind of inside knowledge, I bet none of the foreign casters are actually talking to the Korean players deeply about their strategies. Big thumbs up for that.
|
IDK about you guys, but I like the hair critique. Everything has its time and place, I just think Wolf needs to work on timing a bit. When to say what, etc.
His solo casts were spot on IMO. Once the element of caster interaction was removed, we had a chance to see Wolf's depiction of the game. It was like a gapless interaction between spectator and him, he joked about not being able to handle it well but it worked out fantastically as I was thoroughly entertained And educated.
I say, keep up teh good works

Are you saying you prefer him emphasizing the end of each sentence and trailing it off ("readyyyyy")? That's what I'm annoyed by, I do agree he should use an excited voice though.

The only big issue i have with wolf, is how much he talks about hair, nonstop, everytime, about everyone, it's annoying. It's not just once, its every person, every player, totally out of topic, bad moments, it's not just like a random comment once a day, he talks more about hair than starcraft.
It would be okay if he talked about it, when like an introduction to player maybe? Tastosis talk about them being handsome, so he could say that the hair looks good, or makes him look bad. That would be fine. But they are talking about the upcoming matches, and he just randomly talks about people's hair, and styles when it doesn't matter and is out of place.

Every famous person has one. I find it funny. I've given this man some shit, but he's become one of the best casters in sc2. When he solo casts, notice he's much more down to business. Describing every aspect of the situation at hand. The fooling around is a result of the current trend among popular casting duos to joke around.
Honestly, I like Khaldor, but Wolf is a far superior caster in terms of game knowledge and I'd like to see him cast more solo. When he casts with Khaldor he dumbs everything down to diamond level or below while alone he's a force to be reckoned with.

Personally I think Wolf is the probably the best caster in sc2 atm. Just keep doing your thing man.

Wolf is one of my fav casters along with artosis, doa and day9
