Might not have had the best casting, but everyone recognized his passion for it, so it's sad to lose him in that regard. Hope things all work out for him with his personal stuff ^_^

Moletrap is awesome, and his enthusiasm made the OSL finals great. Why are they getting rid of him? What's happening with Doa?
Terran it up.

Best of luck. I'm sorry that I met you so late in your stay here. You obviously care a lot about the industry and don't get enough credit for your efforts. I'm sure our paths will cross again some day. Hopefully we can have a drink then and share our passions further. You're under-rated.
you're only as good as your last game

I also never understood all the hatred against moletrap. He was a reasonable if not amazing caster and like others said, I feel bad for someone who is forced to leave what they wanted to do as a passion for reasons like health/family/money. Keep up your chin moletrap and good luck.

I give him props for doing what he did. Didn't quite enjoy his casting, but I did like his interviews and behind the scenes footage.
Good luck with your future Moletrap.

Moletrap was virtually a LoL caster anyway seeing as it's the game he's actually passionate about and plays

Pretty much this, I didn't learn anything from his video.


you have to give him credit for consistency, that's pretty much my feeling watching him cast matches

- Reddit thread about speculations that OSL will change its english casters the day before this announcement.
- Moletrap leaving Korea for unspecified reasons other than "family is more important than esports"
- Future plans is trying to see if he can get another casting gig somewhere probably not close to his families.


Not implying anything here, just stating the facts.
I believe in Sets, The Rationals, LQG and PoltPrime.WE

I appreciated your casting. I always thought it was smart, albeit not well delivered.

Living in a Korea just to cast these games show truly how dedicated Moletrap is. I can't say I've enjoyed your casts the most, but it is definitely a loss. Best of luck on w/e you do next Moletrap!!

I don't think he's really that much worse (if at all) than he was in the BW/Violetak days, there's just so many casters out there now who are better, it's like in 2009/2010 people realized this could be a huge source of money and put their whole life's passion into it (look how much Husky improved) and Moletrap just kind of fell behind.

It's like when Cholera made his comeback VOD and I was like "This guy was my favorite caster?" But casting just wasn't that good in 2009 and a lot of cool stuff that Cholera did like making Reach look like some larger-than-life figure to build hype is standard now, look at Artosis and NesTea.

While not the best caster, Moletrap was definitely one of the most passionate. Feels like he got too waaaaaaaaaaay too much hate from people. Really hope everything goes well for him.
