Now, some may not like Moletrap even in BW but the majority liked him and was at least fine with him (better in co casts because he did well).
I guess Moletrap isn't as interested in SC2 as in BW which is a bit disappointing. I want Moletrap to succeed. I do hope he tries to get into SC2 more to become a better caster.
He has the potential as seen in BW (and he did fine in BW).
Maybe one reason is that all of Moletrap's old co casters from BW are gone, so he's in new territory with new people (maybe uncomfortable for him). Though, I don't really know. I do wish things go well for him in the future and that he can improve so that we can see BW Moletrap except in SC2 (maybe more better too).
Also here's Moletrap and Klazart casting that infamous MSL Flash vs Jaedong Finals:
(Also Moletrap's thought on Jaedong given the win at around 24 minutes and 30 seconds. Basically he understands and makes the point it would have been unfair to Jaedong too if they did a rematch [in any case, it's a lose lose all around as it's hard to make the right calls].)
As you can see in the video (they start talking about the game instead of the players a minute in), Moletrap is much better in BW than in SC2 (especially with co casting).
Again, I hope somehow the old BW Moletrap returns (someone get Moletrap and Tasteless together so they can restore their passion!!!11).
Agreed, he (and a few others) were the one who got me into BW back in 2008. In fact I distinctly remember making a youtube account in order to subscribe to him. I don't think people appreciate just how much Moletrap has done for the community. Yeah, ok I must agree in SC2 his casting is not up to par with many of the people we have today but please give him a chance, who knows.

Yes please grubby! and fire the clown moletrap he is THE WORST caster EVER... if tl want to warn me or ban me FIRST think of this moment.. GSL Moletrap and Wolf casting: Moletrap says "PYLONS DONT GIVE VISION SO HE WONT BE ABLE TO 4 GATE UNTILL HE BRINGS A UNIT TO WARP IN"..............Wolf says "YEA I THINK THATS ACCURATE" i will NEVER forget that moment, then and there was when i KNEW that this guy didnt even play the game, WHY THE FK was he casting THE MOST competitive league out there? When moletrap left and wrote on TL, i SINCERELY thanked him for leaving and wished him the best at OTHER games/careers he wanted to choose, just not one like starcraft which requiers ACTUAL KNOWLEGE of the game. He left to League Of Legends, i didnt care, he couldve been good there, the game requiers no actual skill more teamwork. Now he has the NERVE of showing up to cast LEGENDS playing with NEW LEGENDS starcraft2? I have never been this upset in my entire life, this guy, should be FIRED and BANNED from Starcraft# FOR LIFE, i never wished for anyone to get hurt or sick in my life, but now... MOLETRAP i HOPE you read this, LEAVE STARCRAFT 2 and DONT FKING COME BACK. -.-; I know im not the only one who thinks this way.
PS: for the noobs who think im being prejudice over Tastosis, im not. I was completely neutral untill i heard that. Worst part is, that isnt even all he said, there are maaaaaaaany more examples that just kill me everytime i remember them...

You could give constructive feedback instead of going all out on someone. Personal taste plays a big role in these things. I am sad to see that many posters in this thread write spiteful things in an emotional outrage. Thing is, if you post like this the majority won't take you serious and it will further downgrade the atmosphere of these threads. You can do better next time!
Let's see how the Grubby/Moletrap combination works, I am really curious about that.
Balance, harmony, one path, one goal, no distraction. Follow your heart.

Didn't really see why everyone was shitting on Moletrap during the casts, it's incredibly difficult to solo cast a tournament of that magnitude. You have no one to fall back on for filler and so it makes you a bit more anxious about what you're actually saying because the entire audience is focused solely on you. I loved the Moletrap + Doa combo at GSL and I think any commentator would be great to accompany Moletrap. The fact it's Grubby just makes it overall more awesome in so many ways ;D

I never understood the hatred towards Moletrap. Even my buddies in ts don't like him, but can't give any sound reason for it. I heard the most ridiculous mistakes by every caster. That includes Tasteless and Artosis, and isn't meant negative at all, it's just the way life is, ppl make mistakes. Artosis and Tasteless just don't get criticized that harsh. Other casters like Wolf and Khaldor were also getting picked on a lot, but for Moletrap i really felt bad. He stopped casting SC2 because of it... And i never thought he was doing really bad, or much worse than others.
Another thing you might want to consider is, that these people aren't in it for the money primarily. They love the game, and Moletrap in particular invested a lot of time into casting when he surely didn't make a living of it. These guys are not born into showbiz and really do care for their viewers and fans opinion. And therefore they are vulnerable to such stupid accusations, as were posted here. Thinking about it, i think the only reason people are so rude, is because they know the casters care, and that they can hurt them. No one does it to Tasteless anymore, because they know that Tasteless will talk on air, about how little self-esteem, skill, maturity, etc. this person has. Unfortunately Moletrap isn't that kind of person. It's the psychology of the classroom: always kick the little guys. If they show any weakness everyone will jump on the bandwagon, to feel good about their miserable existence.

You sure he wasn't talking about high ground warp ins?
Also, he knows BW well. He probably knows Pylon does give vision (as in BW, they did), so either it was a sort of mistake due from pressure casting or he was talking about high ground warp ins.
