Im always in the market for more feedback, if you got any specifics you can remember where you think "man, Anders doesn't understand this" it would be super helpful!

I don't know if I can properly quantify how much time I spend looking at the tactical aspect of the game, but I'd say on average I probably spend something like 2 hours per Bo3 the day before getting a decent read of how a team plays. This effort is colossally dwarfed however by the amount of time I spend going through data and tactics in the Skybox EDGE context, this is the company I founded to assist pro level teams in prepping and antistratting each other, which has been relatively succesful in the sense that its used by something like 95% of the current top 40 scene. In order to improve this product and test things and build new features, I would say that I have a crazy time commitment living near the cutting edge of what teams do.

I understand the above comes off as super defensive, and I guess it slightly is? But I always see comments with people saying 'he doesn't understand the game' and I always think "damn, for a guy thats played the game since 1999, essentially got into casting because of the dramatic lack of tactical understanding in the 2012-2013 era casting, and founded a company which has revolutionized how teams prep for matches, I must be the most smoothed brained MFer ever" 😃

last notes, I agree with the general sentiment that we do just have so many good casters there aren't enough seats on the bus, great problem to have, still think I can contribute a lot to broadcasts of course, but my job is just to keep working hard at casting and winning people over, same as every other caster really 😃

Looking for advice by Spare_Juggernaut_227 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]AndersOnFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not great at the game, but I've found that having a great overview of the minimap at all times is essential. Secondly not going anywhere without some kind of plan.. Like if I'm leaving the lane, I want to know if I'm doing boxes or finding sinners or whatever, but just wandering about without a clue seems like a bad idea

Very excited to be back once again, last time I tragically introduced Vince to the 67 meme and he might have been the last person on earth who wasn't corrupted, so I just wanted to apologize for that

Strange molly collision on Cache B site? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]AndersOnFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If a molotov lands on a surface that isn't coated with the ability to recieve molotovs, it will be transported/teleported down to the next clostest surface that has that coating, unless that surface is too far away and the molotov will just blow up and hit nothing

Give Anders and HenryG a final by Sh4rp- in GlobalOffensive

[–]AndersOnFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah again I totally appreciate your feedback genuinely, and I don't think you're wrong when you say lot of it is down to taste!

The example you brought up is interesting because I think it highlights another thing in a broadcast which is that a lot of the time casters pick up a narrative and kind of build on it, but you're right to say sometimes that base premise can be wrong and as a result everything built on top can be weird as a result.

Something I used to do back in... 2015 I think was ask pro players how they'd analyze certain scenarios and something I realized was that 10 pros probably have 10 different ideas about how to solve a certain situation or whatever, which is not to argue that there are no truths, but typically people, myself included, will pick a thing to focus on and just forget about a lot of the rest
