I stopped listening to his cast over a year ago and about 6 month ago I discovered him again. Now he is one of my favourite casters. Same with me. He got me into competitive starcraft at least, I didn't really know much about it until I started watching some of his videos. TLO was always one of my favorites. Glad you're doing this for us, JP. | ||

He's just passionate about what he does. To be honest I'm not aware of too much hate. I guess he gets some regarding, perhaps, the money he makes from YouTube. I haven't watched his videos for a while, though, so as I prefer more analytical casting (still love him with another good, more knowledgeable caster, at events). I may be out of touch with current events | ||

But answer me this: If he has such a true passion of SC2, why is his best race diamond level protoss? If you cant put in the time to get into master league then do you really have a passion for the game? I think Husky has a passion for being in the spotlight, not for the game. Theres nothing wrong with being a noob, we all were once. But when I was, I wouldnt have been presumptious enough to want to cast MLG. Its really embarassing. TLDR: im just a 'hater', disregard above statements | ||

TLDR: im just a 'hater', disregard above statements why do you have to be master level to have a true passion for the game? That is the most ridiculous statement i've ever heard. I fucking love football and basketball, but have never been able to play above the high school level. Does that mean I'm not truly passionate about those? did you listen to the interview? Dude made 900 videos with an average of 800 views each. He did that for the non existent spotlight right? | ||

Im the same age as Husky, didnt play Broodwar, and only play about an hour or 2 a day and I made Master a LONG time ago. You act like its hard. Name me one other caster thats worse than Husky. Seriously... He is the lowest common denominator. Why would you legitimize that? If you needed legal advice, would you want the lawyer with the WORST case record? If you need your tooth pulled do you go find the worst dentist? Have some standards. | ||

You act like its hard. not once did I say its hard. but to say he doesn't have a true passion for the game because he isn't master level is ridiculous. The man's entire life is starcraft and he was doing it long before he got paid for it. You don't do that unless you love it. | ||

On what basis do you claim (or at least, strongly imply) that he is not genuine, and instead prefers to in the spotlight? | ||
