| I don't really like Moletrap's casting. His insight is lacking, and I find his voice kinda unpleasant to listen to. GSL has two very good caster pairs right now with Artosis/Tasteless and Khaldor/Wolf. I also enjoy casting by Day9/DJWheat, Rotterdam/Mr.Bitter and Apollo/TotalBiscuit. Sure, English speaking casters are scarce in Korea, but really... Moletrap? |

| I'll be watching the Korean cast thank you, which will be painful at first because they're just learning the game. I think it will be interesting to watch them develop and this way you can see how much time and effort they put in to learn the game and how the player's grow. |

Artosis/Tasteless - Work for GOM already. Khaldor/Wolf - Work for GOM, don't know anything about BW. Rotterdam/MrBitter - Don't know anything about BW. Apollo/TB - Don't know anything about BW. Day9/DjWheat - Wheat knows nothing about BW. Day9 makes way too much money by himself to ever take this job.
Got anymore good suggestions?Last edit: 2012-05-04 22:05:40 |

When did he say that? If he did, I missed it. All that I know is that he left GOM for OGN, but he may have known that OGN was going to be needing a caster for their English BW and SC2 casts as well as LoL. Maybe they contacted him in advance for that purpose. Is there a link to where he said he was quitting SC2 for LoL?
I think it's silly for people to just randomly list casters that you'd rather have when most of the ones listed have positions in other companies or have their own thing going. Last edit: 2012-05-04 22:05:38 |

| Artosis made a good point on SotG: Moletrap knows both BW and SC2. OGN should be exhaustive on their searches finding a quality pair of casters for their proleague and Moletrap is certainly qualified as one of those. |

| Moletrap is a great caster, sometimes his knowledge about sc2 lacks a bit, but all the continuous enthousiasm he puts in his casts is remarkable. Casters should scream and be very excited imo, it makes good esports; people who are new to sc2, don't care about meta game strats etc, they want to feel the sympathy behind the whole scene. I like it a lot more than the boring casts of wolf for example, even though he's good at what he does ofc. Everybody his own taste. |

I'll never get the anti-Moletrap casting thingy going on with people.
Moletrap is actually solid. If people are annoyed about his voice or looks in the camera then say so instead of saying that he lacks knowledge and other bullshit things... people that say stuff like that are freaking ignorant cuz that is NOT the case.
The guy is superb and he is ALWAYS doing his homework before games, he knows builds and shit, he knows alot about the players, he can predict the games outcome etc.. I f***ing dare to say that he is doing his homework more than Tasteless doing his freaking homework. Sorry to say this but Moletrap does NOT deserve all this hate. |

Pretty worthless poll, there aren't many alternatives. You need someone willing to go there, know's both games well and will be generally accepted by all.
And that's just not going to happen - very few of the top casters now are generally accepted or receive positive feedback as Artosis said on SotG |

| I don't really care, just so long as I can still watch the Korean commentators, I just love those guys :D. I'll watch Moletrap from time to time though, it's been so long since he's done anything BW I wonder how well he'd do with that |

| I'm wondering if OGN will try to poach Tastetosis from GOM. Maybe offer them something significantly more than what GOM is offering. Money talks, right? |

The poll is pretty worthless, It will only accomplish getting people riled up and hurting Moletrap's feelings. Also the people that enjoy his casting are less likely to vote. What people don't realize is it is kind of late to get a new caster even if they wanted to.
To the people that say they won't watch the games if Moletrap casts them: Your not a real fan of StarCraft |

if OGN really that big and wealthy they need to offer the mega $$ to likes of Incontrol/Grubby/Apollo. ie an offer thats too good to turn down.
As for Moletrap isnt he turning his hand to LoL? |

| He'd be the best for casting both games. I wasn't the biggest fan of him to begin with, but he got better with time. |

djWHEAT has casted StarCraft before, surely? Obviously he wouldn't have much analysis, but I'm sure I've heard of him casting, maybe at a WCG or something, he'd have the familiarity down enough to be able to commentate with an analyst. That's assuming I'm not talking out of my ass, and also impossible because djWHEAT would never leave his family/job/etc. |
