I'm sure if you have a proper voice client it can easily be done! First of all we aren't using Ventrilo anymore. Secondly see R1CH's post. And last but not least there's more than just the inherent internet latency to it. In a studio people SEE each other talking, they can instantly visually communicate and hence easily coordinate who talks. That is not possible on the internet. It works reasonably well with two people, especially when they have experience doing it together (and even then it occasionally happens that they interrupt each other). With more people it's just going to happen constantly. | ||

OT: I hope that this already has been decided; if not you should probably go with the Archon because they have been around for a longer time. Or maybe the Plott brothers should cast together ? | ||

B) Not that my opinion matters, but I'd very much prefer to see Day and Chill cast the finals. They both know much more than I do about the game; this helps both in terms of overall strategic analysis and also just in terms of them being good at observing. For example, sometimes when they aren't casting I feel like "I wish the casters / obs would check whether <insert important upgrade / strategic move> is happening, but they don't seem to realize the importance." | ||

Otherwise, I'd say Day[9]/Chill for analysis, Tasteless/Artosis for entertainment. By a hair. Depends which you want more. Tasteosis are more entertaining and energetic commentators but Day[9]/Chill have better knowledge of ZvP/PvZ I would say in terms of analysis. Especially with Artosis being terran. OR alternating sounds like a great idea, with some kind of break at some point. Sucks to have to miss one team or another TBH. | ||

As for more than 2 casters, while it would have been interesting to listen to, there are things the internets infrastructure just says "no" to. If anything, please try to bring on some of the players who already lost, like Ret, Idra or someone else who can weight in with some extra insight from a players point of view in between games. That's probably the only way to incorporate extra "casters" in a smooth and interesting way. | ||

I have no idea if this is easy or a nightmare to do for your team of wizards, but all the commentators deserve to cast the finals. And I believe the community demand will be pretty high for both teams. | ||

All four commentators watch the replays but the two who don't speak move to another chat room. And between the matches everybody gets back together to share their impressions - since that would only be for a few minutes between the matches I'm pretty sure it would be much more fun than annoying. It would add a lot of fun to the entire thing, plus it's a bo7 so we're guaranteed at least 2 matches per duo. And if a live commentator disconnects you have backup instantaneously available! I really hope TLnet staff will consider something along these lines. | ||

More viewpoints is better, especially given that if you watch a casted game from two different sources, commentators often have widely differing opinions. I like debate. =) | ||

The final matches should be a little beefed up in terms of airtime and hype. And since its a bo7 there will be more to talk about but just two people may run out of things to say and just kind of start the next game too fast (or they will talk about the same thing too long). | ||

And yet there was an Artosis/Chill commentary not saying that what you are thinking is wrong, I'd bet that is one of the major reasons that they were paired the way they are. Just noting that it is possible, there doesn't seem to be "Too much latency" (correct me if wrong TL staff) | ||

All other combos I like though: Chill+Day, Tasteless+Day, Chill+Artosis. | ||

Nothing beats the hot date I had on Valentines Day, finally two people who love me, I think Artosis and Tasteless should definitely cast. Btw. quite a number of comments were for Tasteless and Day, some for Chill and Artosis, so I'd say letting every combination cast once would be pretty cool and diversified. | ||

but seriously, this poll is just wrong; out of the 6 combinations, you only give us 2! There are a TON of Day9 supporters here, so it will probably skew the polls too... not that I don't like Chill! I'm just saying there should be a fairer voting system. | ||

on the one hand i'd say: put 2 of them together depending on their main races fitting the finals(ZvP) e.g. day9 or chill for Zerg and tasteless for protoss so they can combine their edges of "feeling" the race with their general top understanding of the game on the other hand: it might be no good idea to mix up the teams, because they are used to casting with each other i voted for day9 and chill | ||

Start with Day and Chill, when game 1 is over, Tasteless and Artosis can add their thoughts and introduce the next match, then reverse and go again. It will add the feeling of epicness to the whole thing imo. If I had to pick one - Day9 and Chill ez. Tasteless seems to have lost his genuine passion for the game tho he's hands down the best when it comes to 'mechanics' of commentating. I've always thought Artosis sounds phony, so me no like him either. On the other hand Day9 is by default extremely enthusiastic about SC and it's infectious, and Chill is good too. | ||

Personally I prefer Artosis + Chill than Artosis + Tasteless as well. Actually I would say my favourite combo in terms of synergy is Artosis and Chill, and Day[9] and Tasteless would probably work better as well considering they have a sorta similar style of commentating. That as well as Day[9] basically just talks the whole time and Chill adds a note here and there which really shouldn't happen because Chill is probably one of the best commentators out there (not that Day[9] isn't but still). SO YES DAY[9] + TASTELESS AND ARTOSIS + CHILL!! | ||

I don't quite get the cult following Day[9] has, though I think he's an excellent caster. Agreed, I actually somehow dislike him BECAUSE he gets so hyped without being any better than the other 3 casters. | ||

I personally would like Tastosis out of the possibilities since I'm more used to them. On the other hand, if I had to chose anything (which is impossible) I would have liked to see Tasteless cast with Superdanielman again, sadly I'll probably never see that. | ||

Due to added latency you have people interrupting each other by accident etc, so 3 is probably not going to happen and 4 certainly not. Would be different with a live studio... I'm pretty sure the SC2GG guys did a commentary with tree or four people during the SPL 08 grand finals which turned out pretty good. They simply took turns and had the order worked out before hand. But yeah, I certainly agree that it's harder to do, and I'm perfectly happy with just two casters. I don't really care who does it, everyone has been doing a great job so far, though I have a soft spot for Day. | ||

I think most of the "cult" in question has reasons similar to my own, so I'll explain: a) I think he's hilarious. Artosis / Tasteless are funny sometimes, but I find both Chill and Day ridiculously funny to listen to. Note: obviously this is completely subjective. b) his strategic analysis is much higher level. I (C- toss) learn a lot from his casts, whereas Tasteless and Artosis almost always just say things I already know / fail to notice things they really should be thinking about (e.g. acting like one player's winning when the other is ahead by 50+ supply, or not watching the minimap to see what the shuttles are doing in PvP despite the fact that a lot of games are won/lost by reaver harass or shuttles dying). AFAICT, Day being awesome in terms of strategic commentary isn't just my opinion - this is pretty accepted as true by most players / TLers. Edit: PS: <3 Chill too, for being fun and for knowing what's going on in-game better than I do too. (As mentioned above, one of the most annoying things for me about watching Artosis / Tasteless cast is that I often am thinking about important things that they don't seem to notice / bother mentioning - like wishing they'd mention what machine shop upgrades are being started, or that they'd notice the dots on the minimap that mean there's a backstab or drop in someone's base...) | ||

doesnt matter, they are not on the same skill lvl either, but it could have more viewers than finals itself and that could be a problem :-D | ||

Day9 + Chill, Tasteless + Artosis The decision regarding who will cast on what day (saturday for 3rd place match / sunday for final) and can be seen here. Gonna lock this now. | ||
