I mean, obviously he’s got credit already, he’s casting the main event of TI. I’m talking more that when the topic of top hype casters are brought up, it’s almost always ODPixel, Cap, Sunsfan has a lot fans, etc. But I just caught up on the games from yesterday and damn, Lyrical brought the hype.
" POS 5 MY ASS, I’M TAKING YOUR BUILDINGS!"
When Kiritych dies with his rapiers
“KIRITYCH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”
He genuinely sounds like he’s a fan of all the teams he casts, which makes for great casts. He really makes you feel both the pain of losing and the euphoria of winning.
Lyrical and OD has been one of the best.
Honourable Mention: James “is an ass”
I just hope he would learn to pronounce some player names without the american spelling. “Yadorou” “tomado” first comes to mind
I feel like each caster duo has their places they are good at. OD/fogged, cap/svg, lyrical/Trent, and syn/sunsfan are the top dogs for me. No particular order. I will also give an honorable mention to tpand/fear; they are pretty funny. I also like MLP/johnx, but they are not quite at the top level. I think they will get there.
Cap’s not in the same league as ODPixel. In fact he isn’t even as good as lyrical
I want him doing the grand finals. Trent too, if nothing else because he shouted out to the TF2 fans a few Internationals ago.
