Apart from a few times he kind of went off on a completely unrelated tangent, I think he did pretty well. Great team of casters overall, really excited for this TSL. That is a very good post. Husky has improved drastically from a couple months ago. You can see it in his casts. People are calling him out for things that he said months ago. He clearly has put a lot of effort in to improving his game knowledge. Its still not amazing, but its much better and his observing skills have gotten better. He worked really well with Day9. I was impressed. | ||

Like some kid at christmas, receiving 4 gifts and disliking one of them, then claiming that christmas is ruined. If you can only play with all four gifts at once, then the gift you dislike is pretty much going to spoil the experience. | ||

People need to realize the TSL is more than a tournament - it's also a show, and in order to keep a show exiting, you need entertainers. Chill and DJWheat are fantastic analytical casters, then they selected Husky for entertainment value, and Day[9] because he's probably the best all-around caster on the scene right now in terms of providing both fantastic analysis and great humor. I'm not gonna lie though. I was really hoping for Stargirl T_T You are probably right. Maybe Husky can somehow win me over, it's been a while since I last watched him and Chill and djWHEAT are decent casters anyways and day9 is dayJ. | ||

Also, I really like Husky, just because he's so exciting. Artosis, Day9, Chill will be plenty enough for analysis, but TSL's just gotta have some pumped up energy. So glad TL picked him up for this. | ||

This times one thousand. Also will be interesting to see how many of husky's subscribers will tune into the live cast considering the majority of them are casual VoD viewers. My guess is maybe 1.5k. | ||

Shakuras Plateau has been edited for diagonal position play only, and Metalopolis has been edited to remove close land positions. The bottom of ramps have been modified to prevent easy walling with buildings I can understand why close-positions Metalopolis has been removed - far too much cheese/all-in play, but why remove back-door positions from Shakuras Plateau? With two sets of destructible rocks and a comfortably long run distance, the only units which can really abuse the back-door are Colossi or blink Stalkers, and only in the mid- to late- game. Is that enough to make back-door spawns Protoss-favoured, or is there something I'm not getting here? | ||

Still looks like a killer line up and I can't wait to see some amazing games. I would have been a little worried about Husky being one of the main casters, but the games he recently casted with Day9 were just great and I think they can be a pretty good pair for the job. | ||

TSL gonna be epic, I will say! For those whining about Husky, he's better than he used to be. I initially didn't like him at all, either, but things have taken a turn for the better and it's really a good fit for the rest of the casters. Can't wait for TSL!! | ||

Thought djWheat was taking a break? If a Day9 + Artosis combo happens, I'll be ecstatic. Too bad about no ICCup map in the pool, but eh. | ||

djWheat and Husky for entertainment and enthusiasm. Day9 and Artosis for game knowledge. Chill somewhere in between. All can articulate their thoughts on the spot and are well-spoken (well, more or less), so definitely no complaining from my side. There are always people who will complain about something. It comes with the territory of having thousands of members (and thus, different opinions ). | ||
