His better then 98% of the bronze league posters/trolls on Team Liquid.
Love the stream Orb, keep it up! <3

Is this the same orb? I bumped into him during my casual play last night.

Dunno why he complains about 4gate in PvP when his build is really bad. :3

It's likely, but anyone can name themselves orb
|
if he says 'Grats on all-in'ing. You're utter trash'.... well then its pretty safe to assume that its orb.
P.S. We need T-shirts that say - Grats on All-in'ing. You're utter trash - with a nice orb logo. might as well be his catchphrase.

Things that make Orb a top tier streamer (at least for me):
1 - Good commentating, he always talks and points out important decisions he makes based on things he sees on his opponent. Sometimes they are right, sometimes wrong but always constructive for the learning viewer.
2 - His play is not top notch and that is a good thing for the following reason.
He is quite good mechanically, but sometimes his late game macro, building placement, army positioning and other common things that hurt lower level players cost him games.
But those things happen in such an obvious way that the viewer can see the mistake himself and learn.
3 - His mouse clicking and apm is fast, precise and effective and one of his strengths.
If you look at some of the some "top" grandmaster player's stream, they are much much more clumsy that orb. This is a very good thing to try and imitate, unlike for example, Hashe's clumsy mouse scroll and missclicking that create an illusion of "speed".
4 - His arrogance just makes him so entertaining to watch. Even when he made an obvious mistake he will trash talk his enemy and rage about balance. This makes his stream a MUST-watch since he is the only one that does it. And sometimes.. SOMETIMES he speaks the truth.
5 - Moments of brilliance that blow my mind and show that orb would be a top player if he was into SC2.
This includes sick-sick-sick control of his units or some crazy decision that would never cross my mind even though I'm at the same level as him (rating wise).
I'm mid master EU toss and I always stop what the fuck I'm doing to watch Orb's stream. I hope he stays longer this time.
And yes, he's called me mentally retarded on his stream for trying to give him tips but I don't care cause he is one of my favorite nerds.

OK it's getting to the point where I almost feel like -orb- is trolling us all O . O some of the things he says are just too rofl to be true

Orb knows best
come on guys~
|
i love how orb QQs about zerg being OP because not EVERY strat that toss has wins against zerg. So mass archons don't work as well as colossi, here's an idea, make colossi instead!

Orb chat mod here. Orb is a great streamer and I've always enjoyed his stream all the way back to beta. The trolling has always been there and will probably always be there. I try my best to get rid of them and now I'm going to take a zero tolerance policy when I mod the stream. Troll = perma ban. Not going to put up with it anymore. If I give someone a timeout they most likely come right back after 10 minutes or just come on a second account to troll. No more patience for it. If you troll, you're banned.

>>Orb chat mod here.
Seriously, why do you even bother?
|
who's watching the stream right now? orb is making the best comeback versus this horrible zerg
|

|
the only build that guy deserves to lose to is 4gate. GG. enjoy your parents anniversary
|
Stream quality is amazing.. video and audio.
Was nice watching you beat that zerg twice in a row ^^

Was perhaps the best game I have ever seen Orb play. Especially when he got the same zerg the next game and destroyed him again.
As to the quality of the stream, It's definitely better and less lag all around.
