Couldn't find a proleague thread Hey just a piece of constructive advice for improvement for casting. It creates a way better synergy if you agree with your partner. I've noticed that much of the time it feels like you're correcting or disagreeing (i.e. use of the word 'but' and saying something different)

Other than that you've done a great job so far. Keep up the hard work and enthusiasm and live it up!!

Edit: It's going both ways. I don't know who started it but it doesn't really matter. As long as you guys work it out : )

2nd Edit: You guys have improved like crazy already. Especially on your synergy. You're hitting a stride in terms of humor too (i.e "minerals seem pretty clean to me" "You never know").
It's also really nice to hear someone with extensive broodwar knowledge tell everyone what's up. Like following pretty much exclusively scII, I had no idea about Jangbi's legacy. I'm sure there's hardly anyone out there better suited to the role of filling in us noobs.
Keep up the great work. I envy the journey you're on. And you've earned it.

I highly recommend that if you are going to continue casting SPL that you or your partner actually play starcraft 2.

There needs to be at least one caster who can give a good analysis. Currently neither provide analysis.

One way to learn is watch other streams and pay specific attention to gas timings.
For example you can tell if it's a sentry immortal all in in PvZ based on the protoss gas timing.

To be honest, I would be surprised to say any of the casters are above platinum, however I know that is not the case
because all you do is play starcraft.

You're a good guy, you do nothing but starcraft. I know you can put out better work than this.
Anyway I gtg my cat's on fire or something like that kbye

Yeah, he might still be since he recently attempted to qualify for GSL (though had to face off against Wooki in first round in a PvP).

I honestly think people are bandwagon hating on them at times.

Whiplash used to be in Grand Masters (currently he's still Masters). Whiplash played since the beta too.

Someone said SMN streamed SC2 recently and he is in at least Diamond or Masters too (I assume Korea since he is in there), and Diamond in Korea is potentially Masters in NA or in EU.

People are really nitpicking (and specifically against them because other casters make small mistakes too), like the other day when they said 6 immortals and everyone bashed them because there were actually 7 (big whoop).
