This is inexcusable. If Katu does not lose his spot as Playhem caster then it's absolutely insane. He isn't sorry for what he did. He dislikes Dragon, and decided to make an ass of himself in front of thousands of people who like Dragon. It was unprofessional, and I hate that when people get caught they apologize and say "oh i didn't mean it."
Really ridiculous, hope Katu doesn't get a job casting another major event. |

wow overreaction. Maybe distasteful but really? xD Disgrace! .... - _ -
Dragon should just be happy with the potential of a free trip. |

It's a bit of the whole "the vocal minority" thing.
I've received plenty of messages making sure Katu will continue to cast with us in the future, and he's gotten a lot of support on his Twitter. I wouldn't worry about his career coming to an end or anything. |

Katu was actually an amazing caster. Unfortunately I have to say this ruined him. I wasn't watching the playhem stream at the time, but I can tell you that I was watching Dragon's stream along with thousands of others and can assure that the only thing he was looking at during the game was SC2. He didn't do anything sketchy to me and actually LOST to the roach timing. He was complaining about the lag to the stream as well. I guess it's generally accepted that he wasn't cheating just wanted to clarify this.
I don't think Katu should be casting the daily anymore and I think it's a great opportunity for Dragon if he attends IPL4! |

Any good...competent caster, has the minimal level of common sense to know what can be said at what times, or rather, what can't be said, and when somethings can't be said. |

Some of the slanderous remarks Katu made were untrue. I don't know what you are talking about lol. And how is it just maybe out of line? He blatantly implied Dragon was stream cheating during the tournament, a tasteless joke. He then proceeded to argue with the chat instead of continue with casting, and said he might as well officially say that Dragon is stream cheating. Obviously there are people overreacting, but the people who are defending Katu's actions are just as silly. |

No, but it was a small one, he didn't think it would be that big of a deal, when really it shouldn't be...again..the ammount of brightness in this thread is minimal |

Regardless of whether it was a joke or not, professionalism needs to be maintained. I hate comparisons, but if Tasteless or Artosis had said anything remotely similar about a player in the GSL during a cast, people would be up in arms as well.
Playhem is an amazing tournament, and I think it's needed for our community to grow. It's a daily everyone can be a part of, and I feel like Katu didn't or doesn't take it seriously. I wouldn't want someone like that to be a representative of my organization. |

Wait, this isn't the first time any big name who is supposed to be professional hasn't sad something bad about another person either trolling/joking or being serious on air or in an interview? Well fuck, let me go find a few of those things for you and then make a huge deal out of them too and attempt to screw their career over for a bit or something. |

| I watch playhemtv every once and a while, usually for showmatches, and the casters seem pretty bad in general. I've watched several showmatches where the casters show CLEAR bias towards one player or another. |

So you decided to remove him for some time from your events which, to my knowledge, got nothing to do with Playhem, only because of a vocal minority? Wow, someone said overreaction? |

TLDR?: Dragon cheated in a tour not that long ago and got called out in a idiotic way by a caster and is compensated by Playhem with a free trip to Vegas all inclusive?
If I am rather close to the mark here it sounds a bit to much I must say... |
