These Playhem tournaments are awesome! They're very well casted and covered, and it's great to watch some lesser known players fight their way through the tournament; especially with the influx of talent we saw at the last one. I watched a lot of the $1000 tournament, following along in Playhem chat channel and on stream, and haven't regret at all tuning in to watch some more today. Keep up the awesome work dudes.
Shout out to Robin, really loved your beta stream casts at MLG. Good luck with your GSL app! |

Stream and casting is so good! Sometimes the stream has some minor issues, but as do all streams.
Casters are absolutely great, entertaining and have a good knowledge of the game. Great stream overall, gl ! .  |

Hey Playhem,
Been listening today and yesterday during the One Thousand Dollar Open. These are my firsts impressions of the show and the casters. So far I've only listened to MrNerdSwagger, Lyrlian and Robin.
Hell, I've been looking for streams like this! I like the idea of daily tournaments that are free to participate in - I'm a EU platinum player myself and I would give a playhem cup a go if it was arranged on EU. As for the stream I think that you casters have good knowledge of the game and I appreciate your in depth-analysis. You focus a lot on strategy and different builds, which is interesting. I also like how you mix personal stories and experiences from laddering. It's gives the cast a personal touch to it. You (especially Lyrlian) have a very casual tone, which is great for the level your casting on. Other casters tend to over-dramatize and scream for everything (or just being loud and speaking fast in general), which can be a pain if you use speakers since the volume tends to go up. You also have decent voices for shoutcasting so keep up the good work! Also awesome that you interract with us viewers, either asking us questions or let us ask the casters questions. Really cool to hear someone outside the US casting games as well. We need a lot more people from EU doing it.
However, sometimes you guys seem to goof around a little too much, forgetting to keep it on a sort of professional level, making it sound like a dialogue between two friends rather than a show/game. It also sounds like you at times are searching for words due to the way you speak, sort of mechanical. Try to relax instead of adding this "I'm a caster in my casting voice mode"-thing. =)
Might be too early for me to give feedback, and my vocabulary is not the best, but I'll try to follow the stream as often as possible from now on. Keep it up. I'm enjoying it a bunch =)
You are Sooo right! Sometimes I am looking for words to express myself since I am not a native english speaking person. But I am definitely working on that, it used to be alot worse haha. The reason why I do this, is because I don't want to be saying, "he is now doing this and that", all the time. Instead I would say "He is now making/attempting/thinking this & that" , this obviously isn't the best example but should give you an idea of how these situations occur. I am a little afraid to be using the same words very often.
On the not-so-serious part, I think that is very much OK to do, especially if you're casting without breaks for 7 hours straight. Have you ever checked out Tastosis in the GSL? They talk about movies and games a ton, because it can get a little boring pointing out the same things in the early-game over and over again when casting for a long period straight.
Other than that, this is easily the best contructive feedback I have had in a long time :D |

Now that i have the correct thread (cause robin is a doody-head.) I have no complaints really. Playhem provides a good daily influx of games, without having to resort to player-streams or watching games on youtube (I don't even play sc2 yet i watch playhem. Srsly.) But yeah, i geniunely have nothing critical to say about it.
p.s more robin though.
p.p.s less robin, he's a doody-head who raped me in an e-hug. |

| Watching playhem.tv right now, gotta say, it's a real treat to have such a great tournament to watch ALMOST EVERY DAY with such high-level play and well known pros. These casters are the bomb, I once watched all day on a Sunday, and Katu gave shoutouts to everyone in the chat (hundreds of people). Needless to say the shoutouts took like 20 minutes lol. They are dedicated to the game, providing great entertainment for the SC2 nerds, and very grateful for our support. Please support these casters like Katu, NerdSwagger, Frodan and Robin, Playhem website, and SC2 e-sports! |

| I have to say, at first i was skeptical about watching playhem.tv since i didn't know what the tournament was about, but since it does have many korean players compete against each other in the tournament i'm accustomed to watch playhem more and more. I appreciate the fun casting on playhem but i would hope that they update the tournament bracket more often since i'd like to see who is playing against who =). |
