Video: Casters during VP vs. NiP

22-8-2015 20:10

We caught Aleksi "allu" Jalli's big clutch against Virtus.pro from another perspective, as we had our camera set on the casters, capturing their reaction to that and further rounds of this close map.

While we have the actual highlight on the way too, we captured casters' live reaction to the clutch by Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli during the second pistol round of NiP vs. Virtus.pro on Train here at ESL One Cologne 2015.

Check out how Anders Blume, Auguste "Semmler" Massonnat & Jason "moses" O'Toole reacted to that round and some of the rounds after the big play:

yeah say about them what u want, but u will never see this kind of genuine excitement from some of the casters that are always so hyped up by the community.

Totally agree. Semmler and Anders ARE the howngrown casters who genuinely care about the game. Unlike some other drop out who came to cs go after Riot/sc2 kicked them out.

absolutely agree, and this is also the reason I think thorin and rlewis should be cut some slack by the community as well.

Only because VP played extremely well on CT and it's more exciting when NIP finds an opening... That's all. When NIP was on CT, VP were plowing through forcebuys and ecorounds (which isn't as exciting)

2015-08-22 20:20

10 replies

richard and thorin never get to cast a big game on a big stage. i mean, right now ur not complaining about the lack of enthusiasm of fiffy or henryG either. u could make the point though about people like tosspot who are just in there for the money if they are in it at all (which he isnt this time thankfully).

2015-08-22 20:37

4 replies

tosspot isn't actually that bad, he's way better than deman and pansy in my opinion. he's insane at creating hype even though he doesn't know as much about the game as others do.

2015-08-22 20:47

1 reply

no, tosspot is garbage bcs all the hype he is trying to create is 100% fake. u can hear that easily just listening to him but there are also other factors that show that. pansy and deman are not the best, but they are decent.

2015-08-22 22:15

They werent commentators on this one. I love Anders and semmler. I would throw HenryG in same basket with Richard and Thorin. But thats relative and matter of taste what you like to listen during match.

2015-08-22 20:52

1 reply

thorin hasnt casted a match in forever. hes not a caster nor a color commentator. hes an analyst on desks, thats it. rlewis had this one off tournament at apm but usually he is best when he is just hosting an analyst desk.

2015-08-22 22:17

thorin also has passion where do you think he find his motivation to be so involved

2015-08-22 20:48

3 replies

Agree, but he is trying to place professionalism above everything. Thats more for analytics desk. Which in this case is not so good if you ask me. But again I'm not too much into CS anymore, following tournaments and I enjoy what suits my ears.

2015-08-22 20:54

thats funny bcs most people call thorin unprofessional with all the sick bantz he does smashing baguettes on tables and shit like that but yeah he is good he should be at as many events as possible.

Moses is a true color commentator meaning he fills in the play by play with high level CS knowledge. The main hype casters are Semmler and Anders. Still, moses if giving some game insight sees a good play he himself can actually hype up nicely. Besides that, this is the best casting trio CS can have. Perfect blend of hype, delivery, and knowledge

These reactions show how passionnate they are for this game, they are living it, feeling it. I laughed hard at Semmler when he did his small jumps on his chair when byali does this round when he opens A site on train with 3 kills :D So much passion... These guys are the best, either it's moses or Joe in the middle of this casting duo, I'll be happy. JZFB & ddk are also a fucking great duo, with threat. Other than these, all other are just crap.
