I wondered about that too. Maybe they negotiated for her to join him this time?

Nobody masters the jibber-jabber better than Doa. This is especially something low level players love, because they do not understand the difference between that and real analysis.

User was warned for this post


But hes not a analysist? Hes a caster!
I think you might have a problem destinguising the two of them.

I really enjoyed his casting with Kevin Knocke, they were neither too analytical nor extraordinarily clownish, just a very solid casting duo, really enjoyable to listen to.

Good luck in Korea, though.
Mutation complete.

Regardless of their individual skills as commentators, Doa + Moletrap was the worst combo ever imo. They didn't seem to like eachother and had no chemistry. Moletrap talked over Doa all the time and would often ignore Doa's joke attempts which was just awkward. Really hope this doesn't end up being the combo for OSL SC2. Goodluck to Doa either way.

he did an AMA on reddit where he said they were getting divorced

that's unfortunate but at least there's a silver lining in that there's nothing tying him to stay in the US anymore

i still miss DoaWolf....

All and all I have to believe this is good news, let somebody less established move into the IPL spot and let Doa go to the big leagues at OGN.

Doa is so funny, he can tell people how a game will play out or end and get it wrong every single time. haha

I personally like TB's casting quite much, but I am persuaded that he really needs an analytical co-caster and Kevin Knocke just doesn't fill that bill well enough.

Not only that but I doubt he'll move across the country until his immigration status is handled. He's not even taking gigs out of the country for fear of that frelling the process up.

Good luck, Doa, and I look forward to the english OGN casts.

Can't say I like this. I always watch streams with Doa on mute. tastosis and wolf khaldor are just on a completely other level.

Doa doesn't know much about the game and his humor is just way off imo. He seems like a pationate guy though.

Moletrap pretty much confirmed in Doa's AMA that he would be the casting partner in the OSL. When Doa was asked who his casting partner would be in the OSL, he replied "I'm unsure, it's still being decided". Moletrap then commented on this saying something along the lines of "Yes, I wonder".

How can Doa compete with Tastosis???

OGN better raise their game and get Rotterdam or Chill or Wolf or something.



Doa wasn't as bad as all the haters say, infact he was quite good.
Funny how much people "ass-kiss" Tastosis. At start of GSL, they were flamed like hell.
I guess if people give Doa a chance, they will like him.

And to answer your question: Doa can compare (and surpass) to tasteless any day of the week.

Im not a hater, just opinion.
Doa is not likeable caster (for me atleast) for 2 reasons:
(1)No game knowledge (gold level knowledge it is like 0 knowledge for most viewer, who mostly players themselves)
If caster have no knowledge, he should entertain atleast, but doa not even close to do this, he is like (2)fake idk...

Thats not fortuitously that's doa+moletrap was most hated major casters, and it is a fact that many people didnt watch gsl because of those 2 guys...
