Hey hey

So im gonna try a compliment sandwich for this ^_^

Watching bits a pieces of Doble/Maynarde of the last weekend Ive noticed a big improvement in both casting quality and the chemistry between the casting duo, Maynarde/Dox has a great chemistry and the perfect mix of Play by Play and Game Knowledge.


Things to improve

Dox- I find when duo casting you can be a little monotonous, when watching you stream ladder/ random games this isnt the case, this is a little more noticeable when casting with Maynarde and wasnt so much the case when casting with Paz.

Doble- Try plug your twitter alot less it does it a little annoying, if people want to follow you they will, constantly mentioning it only makes people want to follow you less if you want followers make a game of it tell viewers that yourself and co caster are having a competition the one with the most followers gets treated to a steak dinner by the other person etc Also could just me but try to limit the "Dad Jokes" some are funny but like the twitter plugs too many can be irritating.

Maynarde- not much pretty decent play by play caster, I find at times you seem to talk about players like yang and Edge alot, for people who arent aware of your relation with the players (like viewers outside of SEA) they may see this as bias.

All in All the boys have all come a long way since the first time they casted and Im sure youll continue to improve, GLHF looking forward to meeting you in ACL Sydney

Thanks for this, it's something I've been really worried about for a long time. I always find it difficult to listen to myself in VOD's because i sound like I'm just droning on in the same lifeless tone. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so. And yeah, it really does come down to how my personality meshes with my co-caster. Paz and I have been close friends and housemates for nearly a decade, so we're a lot more relaxed and comfortable together. When I cast with others, I tend to interrupt them and talk over the top of them a LOOOT. Really bothers me that I do this. Also, I was fatigued as hell on this most recent weekend particularly, having slept only like 3 hours the whole time I was in Sydney lol. Cheers for the feedback!

Hey Chris thanks for the feedback on all players Just for a bit of clarity here, I do definitely have my favourite players but consciously make an effort not to cast biased! Hopefully that comes across when the action kicks into gear, but in the early game (in my opinion) you need to fill the lack of action with SOMETHING. Whether it be banter or analysis of the plays / players.

EdgE is a player I've watched play many times at local LANs and we talk fairly often, so I know a lot about him and like to give people insight on what to expect from the players. Obviously I haven't been casting very long, and have only just recently started to learn traits of other SEA players. For instance with yang as you mentioned, I know he will almost always FFE against Zerg, Mafia will drone forever, Rossi will 1 rax expand, (etc etc).

I do appreciate the feedback and I'll make sure that if I'm talkin' about one guy I better have something to say about the other too so it balances out better. Good point
