To me it would make much more sense if they were wearing cool t-shirts and maybe a blazer. Suits just doesn't match the SC2-crowd. Wearing a good fitting suit, tie and shirt makes you well dressed* How you dress is how you portray yourself man, no matter whether you believe it or not. I couldn't care less what the caster is wearing, the brilliant part about esports that I like is that things like Artosis/Apollo dressing up and Day[9] with his ridiculous amount of Tshirts happens. Esports is special because the caster don't need to look stupidly formal and I think it should stay that way. esports is trying to become main stream, and almost every sports caster in any televised sport that i can think of you will always see dressed professionally with. sorry that u might disagree but if you want esports to continue to grow and become more accepted then casters are going to have to dress the part. how can u take someone serious if they are dressed like they should be in the audience with the rest of the fans? I don't know because they posess knowledge/credentials the casual audience doesn't ? Look i understand what they're going for but no need for going overboard which happens quite alot in my estimation. I really don't understand why esport commentators should look and behave as stiff-upper-lip formal as other porfessional sports casters. It's a new thing, its very different from mainstream professional sports casting, and it enjoys freedoms that other sports don't have. Lets not give them away only to "further grow the acceptance of esports". Where else could casters make funny references to other players, create casting-memes, or talk about utter nonsense or share some private stuff in boring parts of the game? The fact that the SC2 scene is not completely porfessional, is what makes it interesting. Just look at other professional sports like football, NBA, Baseball, Tennis, whatever. More professionalism means an abundance of streamlined meaningless interviews with players that have been trained by professional PR people to increase their market value. It means arrogant children-millionaires not giving a fuck. It means restricted acces to the actual games, and boring as hell casts with very superficial tactical analysis. To get back to topic.. though I prefer casual stuff, there is nothing wrong about letting people wear suits as long as the overall atmosphere stays casual and relaxed. And casters people feel comfortable in what they are wearing. WCS Europe finals gave a great example in my opinion. What I don't like is a sense of forced professionalism upon the casters. Always get that feeling at WCS AM. Looks like Axslav and Axeltoss are repeating in their head something like "need to look professional, get a professional pose (awkward hand positioning), need to speak professional, need to avoid puns at all cost...". They look so uncomfortable, it makes me feel uncomfortable myself! I'd love to see them having some more freedom of speech, I mean it's America, isn't that supposed to be their thing? | ||

I showed Dreamhack to a friend of mine explaining everything that was going on and he was somewhat fascinated, then he started laughing really hard when he saw one of the two finalists with undone beard, random clothing, really bad posture, greasy hair etc. Other than that particular case most progamers look creepy (I did too before I quit) because they don't have the will or time to care about looks when they never get out of home. I appreciate that the casters try, even if they are inherently more stimulated to it by the nature of their job. | ||
