Kaelaris? :/

Im getting a bit tired of apollo casting every single tournament as well, even though hes a very good caster. I guess people in general like Kaelaris more than me, all I hear out of his mouth is either truisms or false information but I guess thats just me.

Nathanias and ToD I like. Hope this tourny goes well for foreigners!


I used to like Kaelaris, but I personally don't like his current style. I don't mind a play-by-play caster like Husky, but I don't think he should be the one analyzing games (that's Apollo's forte). His enthusiasm is perfect for play-by-play and needs to remain that way. Even Tasteless, who is nowhere near Artosis's level, is more careful with his analysis by translating some of what is going for the more casual audience.

Doesn't beat the lineup from DH, but I like the WCS EU crew! Should be good.

I don't know of any other type of competition in which a group of casters/personalities is more important than the players and the competition.




Only kind of example that come to mind for me would be to some extent Michael Buffer for Boxing.
The point of quotations is that one can use another's words to be insulting.

It's sad that the foreign scene has turned into a personality contest.

Really? Apollo, Kaelaris, Tod and Redeye and I assume Infeza all work for ESL, Smix is a great translator and Nathanias is one of the few new casters on the scene who you could say got big on the basis of talent and hard work alone. Who do you think should be replaced, and by who?


I agree somewhat, but I think if you look closely most of the casters got to where they are today through both talent and hard work. Well, the ones that aren't former pro players - and even then you can argue that took a lot of work to get to as well. The thing is, Nathanias has put in a lot of hard work recently, whereas the other guys put in a lot of hard work a couple years ago.

Also, am I the only one that thinks Nathanias sounds vaguely like Mr. Bitter while looking a bit more like Kevin Knocke?

Also, I'm sad we don't see Kevin Knocke cast more.

I'm not worried about the twin Axes of MLG. They have a nice office in a great city and lots of "water". They should be okay. Sundance will take good care of them, won't he?
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?
