To make sure there is no misunderstanding, I don´t know if Moletrap will cast SCII for OGN but Artosis said it will most likely be the case in this episode of SotG. I think all people who know who Moletrap is will know about certain discussions so I will not repeat everything again in this thread. Instead I would rather make a poll to see how the majority of people think about this.

Please only vote if you watched GSL Code A and are familiar with the matter.

Poll: Would you like Moletrap to cast SCII for OGN?

No, I would prefer an other caster (1048)

Nothing against Moletrap, but I couldn't stand to watch Code A or GSTL when he casted. Hopefully they find other casters.

I got the sense throughout that whole show that they didn't realize that Moletrap/Torch got hired by OGN to cast LoL. It hasn't been announced or confirmed that Moletrap will be casting OSL or whatever they end up calling it, and it was frankly a little silly that they spent so long talking about it based on nothing but an assumption.

That said, Moletrap really isn't a good choice. I like him, personally, but most people don't, and they have the resources to get someone more popular.

What's the point of this thread? If you know how people feel about Moletrap, why would you make this poll? Just check previous polls in previous threads. I wouldn't mind Moletrap btw.

who though?
they cant get Tastosis, DJwheat, Day9 or bitterdam unless they get dApollo and Totalbiscuit i dont think there going to find a better caster

hopefully if Moletrap does get the gig he works hard on improving his casting, and Artosis did make a good point that theyd need someone who can cast BW as well

I hope they bring Moletrap in.

I can't stand the hate he gets around here.

I don't see any of the major popular casters having the time to go to Korea, so I wish some of the more unknown/less popular casters would make their break with this opportunity. I think any caster in a position at OGN would definately have the incentive to improve as casters, and it's good for the community to have more diverse casters.

they could probably get Husky (hard to say havent seem at an event for a while so maybe hes not interested in full time casting) but no way they could get Day[9] to give up the Day[9] daily, besides is that the publicity they want?

"hey SC2 scene, its us KeSPA, remember us? to show how much we love the community we jsut killed the AHGL and the Day[9] Daily!!!!"

There's a lot of casters out there. It's entirely possible that OGN could poach casters from another tournament, they almost undoubtedly have more money than most organizations. I don't know enough about the logistics to give any sort of expert opinion, but there's a lot of people out there that have gotten a general better reception than Moletrap. They could even potentially convince a player like Grubby to cast for them if the deal is sweet enough.

edit: off the top of my head, Katu, orb, Husky, Apollo, Axeltoss, and Adebisi all are better casters than Moletrap

I could see this happening.

Painuser, too. He said he would be making more money flipping burgers then what he is being paid now to cast, on Inside the Game this week. Perhaps if the money is right he'll go?

I get it now ... moletrap is a spy sent by GOM to destroy OGN from the INSIDE!

Joking aside. I really couldn't care either way. The only time moletrap bothered me was early when he first started casting for GOM and had a tendency to cut people off but he got better at that towards the end.

I dont think there is a long line of casters who want to move to Korea permanently or for an extended period of time. Stop saying Day9/Husky/Apollo. Its not gonna happen. They are all doing rather well right where they are right now.

Doesn't affect me because I will watch the Korean broadcast if available, if there will no longer be a Korean broadcast offered to the foreign community then I will be upset though.

Moletrap doesn't have a good approval rating, everyone knows this. It's not even 50%. But there's only so many casters available for Korea when two leagues are running and not sharing casters so they don't have much of a choice unless someone else wants to come live in Korea permanently and cast for OGN like Incontrol or Grubby.
