How does that have anything to do with the topic at hand? Knocking a region for under performing should be something motivational... which, frankly, America has been heavily under performing in SCV (compared with SC2, SC4). Knock all you want. But if the rep has been selected, you can't undo it...

Your points have zero to do with the topic at hand. Making it about a French player living in San Diego winning the qualifier is a moot point that you choose to pettily dwell on. While few people will lobby as hard as I for the spirit of fighting; the event is over. Thus, drawing "sides" only...

Folks... if anything, the SC community has managed a level of class that was slightly better than others. And if anything, we've been more than helpful of our fellows regardless of their country of origin - simple example, NA SC banded together to being DTN to Evo. If your objective is to troll...

Slowly nearing 40... I'm a 0. I'll take "Salty Vet" too though... like that one. Being old sucks in many ways.

Another good piece.

Bib: I said I'm not a fan of his casting. As a player, analyst, I am a fan. But, in his analysis he really pushes the color... and he just doesn't have the talent for it. Try hard = unnatural = awkward.

Esca: I didn't want to say it... but I'm not a fan of Artosis' casting... Tasteless is a legend however.

If you look at S-kill + U.David they are 1 deep analysis + player information (S-kill) and 1 colored analysis (U.David). Day9 + djWheat = analysis w/ color x2 (more analysis from Day9, more color from Wheat). Tasteless + Artosis is a similar blend, but they both do more color than analysis.

I might agree, but I don't feel that at all when watching S-kill + Ultra David or any of the good casting combos in Starcraft2. I do want to rip my ears off at some of the "color" commentary that has floated around SCV. Simple logic dictates SCV's audience is small, thus no matter what, laymen...

Just as a point of clarity (I should have said as much) I see FG play-by-play as similar to boxing's and not baseballs. IMO, what S-kill and Ultra David do is play-by-play with analysis and they are hands down the best casting duo in FGs.

I would say SC needs a lot of play-by-play with analysis over color. Some may whine about it lacking hype, but nothing lacks hype more than a lack of an audience. I think it is essential to note the explosive growth of SF4 as well as Starcraft2 and note the commentary styles that have been...

Excellent work on the JG write up.
