[Chartier111290]

i believe the x x at the end is GG in korean.

[DaltonDod]

Wow,you do talk a bit too much man... don't have to talk the whole time, we are watching the game

[PolygonreVue]

@DaltonDod Thank you for the feedback. I was taught that dead air is a crime :)

[Dastsiri]

Dude you don't need to be speaking the whole time. Breath and focus on important stuff. We don't need everything that we see described.

[PolygonreVue]

@Dastsiri Thanks for watching, and for your feedback. I'll keep it in mind :)

[stephanpak]

This garbage is considered superior play?

It's a 1 base all in that abuses the power of force fields in the early game. Hero won a coin flip. Terrible casting.

[PolygonreVue]

@stephanpak Whilst I value all feedback, some is less valuable than others. I do appreciate you watching and hence contributing to my increased Google ranking though, so thanks for that

[gaggyfish]

More analyisis, less saying what's happening on the screen - we can see that lol. but thanks for uploading hopefully you post some more (:

[Jacar91]

PvZ aint that unbalanced any more even idra said that recently. Terran thou are kinda sick

[PolygonreVue]

@Jacar91 As proven by our man ThorZaiN yesterday....! :)

[Reoh0z]

Yep Protoss are OP; thats why they keep failing to make it to the latter rounds of tourneys, oh wait...

[PolygonreVue]

@Reoh0z The debate rages on.... :)

[Reoh0z]

@PolygonreVue

Eaheahahahea that it is does mate. :)

[Kozaack]

@Reoh0z In february Protoss players won 60% games against Zerg players. That's a serious inbalance. Just google statistics.

[kleash]

@Kozaack

Terran's win rate is higher, now what?

[PolygonreVue]

@kleash Imbalance debate will go forever on, that's what :)

[CallumMclarty]

@Kozaack febuary...2011 i'm guessing ^^ haha

[SatanClauze]

Will be subbing. The most important thing in a commentator is his style, or, to put it bluntly, his voice. When I'm in different moods I will prefer a different voice, sometimes forcesc2's sport-commentator style, sometimes husky's funny style, sometimes crota's play-by-play analysis. I can't place it but you sound like a sport commentator of some sort too, plus I don't mind accents.

Looking forward to more great casts!

[whutbrush]

IMNesTea, allegedly one of the best, if not THE best player in the world, has lost like 9 of his last 10 live-cast games. Always to Protoss players, too. It's a shame when two races have so much disparity between their respective balance levels that simply building units can crush superior tactics every time.

As a Zerg player, these recent trends, along with the 1.4 patch, are truly discouraging times.

[PolygonreVue]

@whutbrush I know what you mean. At the same time, Starcraft 2 is gaming subculture that will reward your dedication more and more over time if you stay committed. Trends will change, the meta game will shift and the patches will be less radical - and then the two expansion sets will arrive and turn everything on its head again. This current alleged disparity will not stay discouraging for long, and Terran players will not always win MLG. Moon may win the next Dreamhack, too ;)

[zansololz]

@whutbrush Not sure if trolling or retarded. He has lost to Terrans mostly, Protoss is widely accepted as the weakest race right now, nestea is in a slump and it has nothing to do with balance. PvZ is pretty even but if ANYTHING it is zerg favored.

[PolygonreVue]

@zansololz And no matter what happens, imbalance will remain our favorite topic of conversation :)

[whutbrush]

@zansololz : You are probably correct about PvZ. Some more thorough analysis and recent gameplay confirms this. Terrans, on the other hand, are really awkward. Earliest harass without penalty, can macro + turtle + harass without falling behind, and can win on one base.

[xaositectz]

@whutbrush are you retarded? nestea has 86% winrate vs protoss and korean protosses are by far the least represented IN WHOLE 2011. i guess idra's idiocy spreads like plague.

and yeah hero was just "building units" here, not like he was using MC's awesome fake exp build.

think for one fucking second

[cramtoro]

@whutbrush Protos is OP since beta. No wonder all noobs play Protoss

[suberkin]

@whutbrush he hasn't lost a live casted PvZ in forever...he like only ever loses ZvT..

[PolygonreVue]

@suberkin ThorZaiN proved that point this weekend at Dreamhack Valencia.... What a series that was!

[achung205]

imo his commentating is better than those of husky, artosis, and what not. no hesitations, quick to spot production tab. accent isnt even that much of a bother.

[PolygonreVue]

@achung205 Thank you :)

[Lorrtab]

@achung205 wtf r u talking about this commentator is absolutely god awful and his voice is quite annoying

[Coilz0r]

Lazy swedish commentator is weird

[PolygonreVue]

@Coilz0r Every piece feedback is appreciated, especially if you next time can be more concrete

[Coilz0r]

@PolygonreVue Saying that is seems a bit too slow and your accent comes off as a lazy pace of commentating for me. Can't fault if its your accent. I like your gladiator introduction videos a lot more.

[PolygonreVue]

@Coilz0r That is more concrete, and helpful. I appreciate it, and will keep it in mind. Thanks for watching

[drk360]

@TheWintermule HerO has left the oGs house, and has joined team liquid, and has become liquid's best protoss since Huk has left liquid

also PolygonreVue you forgot to mention how Hero canceled his nexus to fake a macro build, you gotta pay attention

[Gorgomli]

@drk360 Hero still lives in the OGS-TL house, as Jinro does.

[darkally93]

@drk360 HerO still trains in the oGs house even though he's with TL.

don't really think he had to mention the fake-expand trick... we all knew what it was (unless you're really new to sc2). lots more important things to talk about, like herO's awesome FF placement

[PolygonreVue]

@drk360 Point taken, thanks for mentioning it :)

[zeOllie]

every time a drone punches a probe at the start like that i imagine the drone saying FUCK OFF in triple caps at the probe ^^

[PolygonreVue]

@zeOllie I agree, good observation! ^^

[rj2dsouz]

Liquid is not the best international team, they are def one of the best though.

[bigjoke86]

Oh my God, it's the Swedish chef! :D But seriously, good cast and video, söta bror! Hilsen Norge ;)

[PolygonreVue]

@bigjoke86 Haha! ;)

[cheetaforest]

great cast!

hero is OP?

[PolygonreVue]

@cheetaforest Yes, he is that :)

[DaggerNubC2]

please stop casting is it terrible , plus you don;t pay attention to anything

[PolygonreVue]

@DaggerNubC2 Whilst I appreciate your feedback, it would be even more helpful if you delivered it in more constructive words

[TheWintermule]

why would you call him the best protoss in the ogs house, did you forget mc? lol.

[PolygonreVue]

@TheWintermule I must have meant the TL-side of the oGs house :)

[Gorgomli]

The production quality is good, but it looks like there is a problem with the framerate or the encoding, the video is not smoth at all :( (i don't think it comes from my computer, other videos are smooth).

Commentary is trying a bit too much to get the "radio voice" in my opinion, the flow is not really good ( please stop with the "ladies and gentlemen", it sounds fake.

Otherwise the game was not really good, a 4gate nexus cancel , nothing exiting.

[Gorgomli]

@Gorgomli

Sorry for sounding so negative, I tried to give constructive criticism, but it ended sounding worse than what I meant to :). Eventhough it's not perfect thanks for doing this, i hope you'll improve. And once again apart from the "smoothness" issue, production is very good.

[PolygonreVue]

@Gorgomli Thank you for your constructive feedback, it is definitely something I'm taking on board and listens to :)

[Nihilum24]

Oh my god this commentator suck

[PolygonreVue]

@Nihilum24 Thanks for watching anyway :)

[mattabesta]

@Nihilum24 no you
