They are such an awesome combo. The great thing about Wheat is his endless enthusiasm for gaming. Goes so well with any expert as co-caster. Thumbs up :D and <3 backdoor

I think the most impressive thing about DJ Wheat is that he doesn't only play/cover Starcraft, so being able to be a better caster then 99% of the people who play nothing but says a LOT about how good he is. It's now much easier to explain to new people why he is awesome in that respect.

djwheat in the world of quake is the best caster ever, he's not as knowledgable as a pro player in SC2, but he knows how to cast, and it shows.

there's no awkward silences, stupid assumptions, eveyrthing that a spectator hates when he knows more than the caster.

he is definitely learning though, he's a very smart guy and i bet he's gonna become one of the best shoutcasters in SC2 as well.

ps. i'm proud being casted by that guy in pro QL :> yeww hewwww

Favorite moment, in the pre-game commentary before game 1 of IdrA vs HuK on Xel'Naga Caverns:

DJwheat: I love the backdoors [on this map]. They're great.
Day9 (starts laughing and tries to say something in response): Yeah, I mean..(giggles)
DJwheat: The backdoors really get me excited.

LOL ! :D
Yeah, same here !
I laughed about 20 minutes after that.

Yep very solid improvement and stepping his game up, but it is a professional cast so I didn't expect the F word every other word casting we might see elsewhere. Matches have been making this MLG all together a casters delight. A+ Job to Day9 and Wheat on this venue.

Indeed.

If you've never watched MiniWheat reviewing Lego games on Epileptic Gaming for his 5th birthday, you've missed out. http://djwheat.blip.tv/file/4172822/

I think DjWheat just brings so much experience in esports in general. I think he was a progamer back in like '96? He may not know as much about SC2 specifically as Day9, but he has a ton more esports experience in a wider variety of games, and know a lot about gamer psychology especially in high level tournaments, like MLG.

But ya, he's done a awesome job, and I look forward to seeing him in more stuff in the future.
