Stephano vs Lowko

God HD is bad..



Yeah HD is bad and talks too much but the game itself is amazing, especially the final battle.



Great game. HD needs to step it up!!



Sick game. I got the feeling that Stephano was just playing with his food the whole time though.

God I despise HD's casting.



Great game :)



Why so much HD hate?

Geez.



People just don't like his personality? No one has pointed out what technical thing that HD does that they dislike. Sometimes I disagree on his choice of what battle or other aspect to fixate on at specific points in time, but that happens with all casting. I think HD does a good job overall, and I appreciate his professionalism.



Okay, well here you go... And this is not hate, it is constructive feedback that I hope HD already knows and is already improving upon.

1) He doesn't use the units nor building tabs enough, and even hides it sometimes when the audience might find it useful.

2) He misses way to many encounters. He missed the last muta flock getting killed, and the audience is looking at it on the minimap being like "God HD... Just please look at the minimap, instead of spending five minutes talking about why the ranged attack upgrade is important"

3) And to continue the 2), yeah... He talks about some small things, like it's either the end of the world or the beginning of another. I know some small things are important, but if you just listen to good casters like Artosis og Apollo, you will see how they quickly point out the little important things WITHOUT losing complete track of the progression and action in the game.

4) The screaming... This is a personal thing, I do not necessarily want it to change. It's just kinda annoying when he screams instead of actually commentating and being insightful. But I mean, so do Day[9] and Husky occasionally, so it's not something that absolute needs change, cause some obviously like it.

5) A lot of the times when he does predictions, it seems like he doesn't base the predictions on anything factual. Why? Well... Because I typically notice that his predictions are wrong. Like "Stephano went for this and won't be too far ahead" when he's ALREADY much ahead and about 10 drones are about to pop. Could be avoided by either not making the prediction, or by LOOKING AT THE BUILDINGS TAB <- He doesn't use the intel the game provides.



Oh.. Also you can tell he was never really good at playing himself, cause it's like he doesn't glance at the minimap while talking.

Still, I am not hating. I am just saying what I think HD should improve to become better. He definitely has the voice and the overall "cast quality" and setup. He just needs to commentate better and more insightful.
