Hey TL,
I recently completed an interview with a SC2 commentator, PsyStarcraft, and he uploaded it to his channel. He's pretty entertaining to watch and a good Zerg player too
Check it out, tell me what you think

His youtube channel is at http://www.youtube.com/user/PsyStarcraft

Part two:


Nice interview! I have been following Psy for a long time, and he has seriously been consistently cranking out high quality stuff throughout the beta. The straight up quality of both is analysis and gameplay combined with some excellent humor sets him apart from the majority of other casters you will find out there.

Definitely one of the major Gurus of the swarm, and I wish him all the best in this exciting time we have in front of us. Would love to see him get even more into the competitive scene though, he has been playing on par with some very strong players, but we know that there is a leap up from being top diamond to actually be a consistently strong player in tournaments.

Nice interview, thanks.

Yeah Psy's cahnnel is pretty awesome. I've learned alot from him, and his commentaries are pretty funny too.

Nice interview.

He has a good voice and gives solid, concise answers.. an overall enjoyable interview!

I didn't like that he was inspired to be a commentator by thinking less of the commentators he watched.. also asking him what it takes to become a SC2 pro is an odd question to ask a guy who isn't and never was (no dig at him).

yh i found that a bit weird but i guess you have to give your two cents if a person ask you a question in an interview .

Psy is the man. Blunt with a sicko humour, and in his other video's he does recognise hes no pro by any means, although he does compete in the open tournament. Plus he's taken down Moo and some other big names, which kinda shows his high level insight into the game. Funny funny man as well

thanks for the interview! psy is an amazing commentator. what makes him so good is not only does he have good mic presence, he is truly a high level player with great understanding of mechanics. i would love to see him either playing in or casting some tournaments (now that he's quit his shitty job).
dont ever say that

No offense but you (as in you and people like you) don't have to mention this in every freaking thread that has something to do with commentating.

I don't have a hive mind with people "like me," I'm just posting what I think, and I think Psy is a good player and commentator.

This guy is slowly becoming my favorite commentator. I play zerg so watching his videos are extremely helpful.

It is great to see all this SC2 content getting out there. What is your background as a interviewer though, have you done any others?

And it is quite possible to say so without bringing up HD or Husky as references. Hive mind or not...
