You don't play StarCraft II too often, do you? You can queue upgrades in this game, for instance in an Engineering Bay, Forge or Evolution Chamber.

Back on topic:
I'm not too fond of Moletrap, as I sometimes feel like he's not that interested in what is going on. I normally don't mind the occasional "um..", but that happens quite a bit when I've listened to Moletrap cast, and it kind of irritates me. I'd prefer if he cuts those out, and instead waits a bit. Then again, it can be hard to find something to say while solo-casting a lot, but I think the arrival of Grubby will improve this.

You can queue non sequential upgrades, can't have +1 weapons researching and +2 weapons queued. But yeah, with so many more informed and competent potential casters out there I'm not sure how moletrap is still relevent in the scene. Back when english commentary was limited to youtube heros and it was one of the only ways for new players to be introduced to the competitive scene he did sc a great service. Now he needs to either step it the fuck up or fade away.

Yes you can, you just can't queue them in the same building. 2 evo can have +2 and +2 queued while +1 +1 still on the way.

Ah nevermind why are we even discussing this, at the time it was not possible to que upgrades.

People hate him for no reason... he's been great at the OSL. Tastosis can't cast everything in the World people, let's grow up a bit.

What hate. This is a feedback post. If you don't have any feedback, just get out.

To be honest, he needs to sharpen A LOT his sc2 knowledge, even he casts with grubby. And i will wait till there to speak any further. I also dislike his voice, but hey, the poor guy can't do anything about it.

Since Moletrap didn't start this thread, nor ask for this feedback, I can hardly believe that this thread is a means to improve his casting. Secondly, you're biased from both the tone of the OP, and blatantly, in words. Therefore, I assume this is an indirect attempt to get Moletrap fired by means of a demonstration of public opinion, and yet more indirectly, to get another caster to take over for him.

Though I personally dislike his casting, I find this thread extremely distasteful...


You can find a conspiracy theory in anything if you look deeply enough. My goal is to make the best with what we are offered. If I want tacos but get enchiladas instead, and i'm really hungry but don't like enchiladas, I try to spice them up to the best of my ability. Similarly, rather then just boycott Moletrap's casting altogether because I don't like it, i'm giving opinions on what specifically I don't like, and how these things can be improved upon.

Maybe my opinions don't match the majority, or my suggestions are only things that would make the cast more enjoyable for myself only. However, that doesn't seem to be the case based on the feedback given in this thread. While I agree that many of the posts could be more polite and tasteful, I don't see any harm in giving a platform for people to suggest improvements to the casting of a show they really want to watch, but are otherwise put off of due to the nature of the casting taking place.

On top of that, I don't see how my OP came off biased, I stated that I don't like Moletrap's casting, but since he is clearly going to be a long-term caster for OGN, I want to give him feedback that may help him improve to the point that I do like it.

Moletrap is great alone but I don't think he's found a good casting partner yet. His BW casting was exceptional. Good idea for a thread considering all the hate Moletrap gets. If you don't like him, give him feedback. Only way he's going to improve and make watching Kespa enjoyable for you.

All irrational flaming aside, Moletrap has been working at this for far too long to still be "just okay" at casting. I think he's fine, but nowhere near proficient enough to be casting in such a legendary league.

MOLETRAP..... what i have to say to this guy:
- He was the reason why i dont watch (early gsl code a, he retired and that was the "best time of my life")

In my opinion is Moletrap like a real trap like this one for moles:


But now... OSL.... what have you done to me, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

For some reasons (i rly dont know why), Moletrap is getting 0,0001% with each Cast better, what did you thing guys?

I personally like Moletraps casting. It isn't spectacular, but far from bad. He will shine with an analytical like Grubby, because he brings emotions and the "wierdness" a good casting needs.

It was significantly better than at GOM in my opinion and solocasting isn't easy, only people like Artosis can pull it off properly. I think he did a pretty good job considering the circumstances. Better than stuff like Husky, CatsPajamas, etcetera. I still am not sure why so many people hate his casting but I think he did a pretty good job, I don't think it deserved this many dislikes.

No, you can't. That's just wrong. +1 is a requirement to get +2, so you can't queue +2 until you have +1. Just like you can't queue a starport until you have a factory already built.
