I used to really dislike when tastosis would promote their teams every single day of GSL. That's illogical. Why would your turn off GSL? Because he mentions his team a few times during a cast? Surely it can't bother you to hear it. So is it some morality issue? You realize if players/casters/personalities don't advertise for their sponsors/teams esports crumbles? Sponsorship is one of the few sources of revenue for esports atm.

He might not have to repeated it again and again to promote, though. Every time he introduces himself with "... It's Gosu Doa" then he already promotes his team.

If it happens that is o.o

so now Gosu has bad players AND a bad caster?

wow, funny how skillless casters can make it so far, even without any game knowledge (platinum player... lol) and bad imitations of tastosis jokes...
sry but everything who thinks doa's casting adds anything to this game is wrong imo, can't understand this hype

I used to really dislike when tastosis would promote their teams every single day of GSL. What would Tasteless say to this? Hmmmm... "If your dissatisfied with my plugging you can tweet me @CallMeTasteless or my employers @GOMTV. Oh and drink Pepsi." Something like that I imagine.
I remember a few times way back in Open season 2 and 3 They would take a minute or two each and every cast to promote their teams.
I don't care if its something like "and i'm itsgosudoa,". But way back in Seaons 2 and 3 where for ex. tasteless would say at every chance.
"and I'm EGTasteless of Team EG, please check us out and myegnet, we've got some great players in out lineup like EGIdra," something along those lines and Artosis would do the same.
I don't care about plugging tournament sponsors, but their own sponsors is just a little much imo. At least not every single cast they do. Espically in GSL.

Doa is auctally really a good caster. I really enjoy his casting. Just because he is plat does not mean he doesn't have game knowledge. If he is obsing and casting as many things as he is/have. He must have some pretty good game knowledge and game sense.
Also afaik Moletrap is Gold ( could be wrong) Diggity might be a bit better. TB (one of the best casters imo) is Gold as well. Khaldor I think is Gold too. Gold league is almost the league of casters.
Very few casters have the time to be masters level. tbh I don't even think Tasteless is masters ( because he has said himself he doesn't play sc2 much)

Congrats to both DoA and It's Gosu!

well i don't know if you watch Code A that much, but he is terrible, well ofc it's just my own subjective opinion, but he calls and predict everything just wrong, he has like zero game analysis.
ok this isn't appropiate of me, escpecially not in this thread.
congratz, cheers and good look DoA, i hope you can improve your game knowledge and understanding

grats DoA

Welcome Doa! Glad to have you.

So is he joining as a caster or a player? I did not know he was on that level of play.
