I, as well, will throw my support out there for Khaldor. You and wolf make casts very enjoyable for me, and I genuinely appreciate you going out of your way to provide preliminary casts. Thank you Khaldor for sacrificing so much in your life to go to Korea to cast for us.
who really cares... the game itself is rated 13+ anyway so you're supposed to have parental approval if you're really that young and playing/watching it.
i love khaldor but the funny thing about this tread is, nearly everyone who says he loves him seems to be from the us perhaps his future career is in the usa ? xD
Really good casting! Was already good before you went to Korean, but it has improved a lot! Keep it up!

Does the age requirement apply to watching the game as well as playing it? And I doubt they are officially allowed to swear during casts, but I don't think GOM will care overly much about a few isolated incidents. If it becomes a more regular occurrence (or some bitchy mom makes a big deal of it) then they might make a bigger deal of it.
Really like your voice, Khaldor and you are the reason i prefer the gstl stream over classical music during studying. But the funny thing is, even as a german, i prefer your casting in english a bit, to be honest i am a bit puzzled about that, but it is a fact.
Wolf and Khaldor make an awesome casting duo. They are able to not only analyze the game in a timely manner but make it fun to for the expierence spectator. First post and singing Kaldor's praises!
We all want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone and the earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
I prefer your person much than your casting. You take sometimes fights already like you had seen it before instead of leaving the viewer get his own conclusion. Ex; An hatchery circled by zerglings, your thought is : THIS HATCHERY WILL FALL. But let it go, like, just mention now he's gonna circle this hatchery to snipe it... and it falls instead of drawing conclusion too early. Otherwise 2 banes can turn the whole thing out and you looks like stupid, which I don't want.
Everything else is very good, keep up the good work!

actually they are allowed to say whatever they want, as long as it doesn't get out of hand of course, Tastosis and most of the other casters just choose not to swear during casts. Khaldor seems to be an exception here, but it doesn't really bother me.
Edit: My source is that there have me multiple discussions about this before.^^

I like you Khaldor, but one criticism I have is that you talk too much lol. I know that's kind of a weird thing to say because it is literally your job to talk, but sometimes I think that you don't give Wolf enough time to go on long rants. I like your long rants when you're analzying the game, but I think you need to give Wolf a bit more space to do his thing. Sometimes I get the feeling that you're just talking for the sake of talking.
Other than that, you're doing a really good job. I think you have good insight into the game will lots of important and interesting things to say.
Oh, also you swear too much. I know that 95% of your audience is just like you; young guys who swear a lot in conversation and so you tend to speak that way, however I think it's detrimental to the image of esports to have casters using too much of that kind of thing. We want to be viewed as a respectable sport which can be broadcast on any channel alongside football, cricket or tennis. Over use of swearing makes it look too much like a frat house.

I assume its the same as with Tasteosis, They are not restricted by GOM but have decided to try to keep their casts clean. Slip-ups still happen to most. Even a veteran like Tasteless messes up sometimes.

Khaldor, I love how you've been going with this season's LR theme of puns. Keep up the awesome work dude! You're a great caster.

Khaldor and Wolf are in my opinion the only two casters who have continuously improved their casting. Artosis has been pretty stable since the beginning of the GSL, and Tasteless has had some peaks and valleys.
Wolfdor, on the hand, started off well, and have only gotten better and better. I don't know if it's a result of threads like these or just more experience, but I'm really starting to enjoy their casts. Keep it up guys!
