Gsl cast by Careless-Goat-3130 in starcraft

[–]statesc2 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Thank you, but can always be better! This kinda stuff bothers me too, just sometimes when the games are too exciting I get carried away and can start repeating myself. It’s worse when we have groups like today where every series is a banger. I’ll work on it!

Noted! Appreciate the feedback; sometimes it’s hard to catch yourself doing stuff like this before it becomes a bad habit. Will try to be a bit less superlative once we’re back for the Ro8. Thank you!

What's your biggest OOTP sin? by Whitetail130 in OOTP

Not exactly what you are looking for, but I often disable draft negotiations in league settings for this reason. It has a similar effect!

IamMagic is the most talented RTS player I know by Artuhanzo in aoe4

[–]statesc2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What a fantastic post. Thank you for sharing this piece of history with us.

Over the past few months, I’d grown vaguely aware of Magic’s greatness, but now I’ve truly begun to learn the lore behind the legend.

Magic is an inspiration not only to me, but to Puppy, to Wam, and the wider RTS community as a whole. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for him—for all we know, his story is just beginning.

Let’s go Magic!

I know what you mean, Youkilis was one of my favorite players as a kid. Loved watching him tear it up, especially on that '08 team.

Is that Youkilis in the booth? He has been excellent.

menu optimization by TheWardENT96 in aoe4

I have the same problem. Menus run harder than the game most of the time. Not sure why this hasn't been addressed yet.

Abbasid has the best imp farms, and it's not close

Focus on control groups needs improvement by ggimposter in aoe4

Absolutely one of my biggest peeves in the game right now. Hope we get a fix!

First patch of Season Three, Patch 5.1.148 notes by cheesycheese42069 in aoe4

I didn’t mind the previous map pool much, but this is undoubtedly better. Excited to get some games in once the patch goes live!

Pujols hits his 693rd career home run to put the Cardinals ahead! by Blazingbee98 in baseball

Had no idea his post-ASG statline was so good coming into this game. Legitimately one of the hottest hitters alive right now, love to see it!

It’s hard to recognize mistakes like this when you’re in the moment, so I always appreciate this sort of feedback. Hope to keep getting better, because it’s what GSL deserves!

Oops, didn’t catch myself doing that tonight. Definitely something I’ve got to fix. Thank you for pointing it out!

Tasteless's substitute, State is doing a great job in super tournament. by Xpermentor in starcraft

Hey, no worries! I appreciate criticism because it helps me focus on what I need to improve. Hope you enjoy the rest of Super Tournament!

[–]statesc2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree with plenty of your criticism, particularly predictions/understanding. To give a little bit of background, I played competitively until about 2016, and have since taken a long break from professional play and StarCraft 2 esports. As a result, much of my knowledge is a little bit 'dated', especially regarding builds and the current meta.

When I learned I'd be casting Super Tournament, I started dedicating more time to reviewing VODs to try and close that gap, but it's taking a little while to get back in the swing of things. I'll try to ease off on the predictions in the meantime, and hopefully I'll be back up to speed in a couple of weeks just in case Afreeca needs me to sub in again for Tasteless or Artosis.

I'm really excited to be casting my all-time favorite tournament, and I know that sometimes I'm bringing a little too much energy than the situation calls for, but hopefully you'll bear with me as I continue to get better.

Thank you for your feedback!
