It's too bad that OGN is probably going to lock him down in his contract, but hopefully he gets to do some freelance casting at other events, IPL especially.

I loved the KevinKnocke/Doa, so I really wish OGN will give him a break!

I wonder how popular the official OGN english stream will be. Most proleague followers love the korean casting and the ones that don't enjoy it watch Sayle instead, which has a pretty big following from both "BW" and "SC2" people now.

And it seems like OGN are going for DoA and Moletrap(?) and thats a duo the community didn't like when they were at GOM. So unless they are going to hunt down restreams (or if Sayle stop casting live) it just feels like the offical english stream will catch the short end of the stick here.


Most will still watch the OGN english stream.
Who watches the GSL in Korean? Almost nobody outside of Korea, since there is an English alternative.

And I hope IPL picks up a new caster.

As much as I love the HDPain BRO TRAIN, it'd be 10x more interesting if they were able to give someone their chance to break into the mainstream. They did it for Kevin, hopefully they can make someone else's career as well!

No one does it because you can't do it. (Maybe it has changed?). Also, Tastosis.

All Doa needs to do now is leave OGN for MLG in a year or so, and he'll have done the Grand Slam of Casting.

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

Doa is really good. Chill will never cast anything except TSL or for BiggerT.

I hope IGN pick up TB as their new caster to replace Doa, so we can have Catspajamas and Totalbiscuit as the IPL casting duo.
HOLY CHECK!

He made a name for himself with the Wolf+Doa combo. I think he was honestly trying to get away from Moletrap! Maybe he'll be something like the lead caster for OGN.

Best of luck!

Good to see him go back to Korea. He always seemed to be passionate about the Korean scene.

They don't really need to compete with each other. OGN has it's own niche marketing as the "BW players".

People don't watch OGN to see top level Korean play like they do with GSL, they watch because they want to watch Flash, Bisu, Jaedong, because they don't know anything about them except their names and their reputation.

Other lesser known players no one cares about, even though they might show the same level play as GSL Code A players or surpass the TaekLeeSsang combo. It's a chance to watch something more "exotic".

Are you assuming that OGN doesn't want to break beyond that niche?
