Hi guys!

Sadly the season has come to a close. So I thought as I put so much practice into the preseason last time to adjust my casting I was wondering. Can I get some feedback for this season of tftv coverage both positive and negative! Let me know below what you guys thought so I can adjust my casting style to give you the best viewing experience possible!!

Biggest criticism about your casting is that you don't really seem to pay attention to what your co-caster is saying and you make sort of sudden changes of topic in what's being explained when casting. Two casters casting should sound like a conversation taking place. You have a tendency to jump to something irrelevant of what the other caster is saying when it's your turn to say something.

I think you do a decent job at play-by-play, but you sometimes seem to run out of words to use because you're hyping a play up so much that you can't think of any bigger adjectives to use. You could fix this by either expanding your vocabulary, or by sticking to simple phrases/not hyping up plays that often, unless of course they're massive plays.

Your interview skills are lacking. Try and maybe jot down questions in between maps in order to have something interesting to ask. Also remember interviews are always fun when you really get the interviewee talking, so ask some interesting questions that can't be answered with a yes/no, which you can then follow up with more questions. A lot of these things come down to just bettering your conversation skills c:

Your radio cast this season was a highlight. I'm excited to see you cast again and see you improve even further at it.

Thank you I will work on my interaction with my co caster and look at my vocabulary. My only explanation for that is I need to keep an eye on the action developing so that's always my focus I feel working with beater and eepily is easiest because they have so much insight that I can trust in what they say and move on with the action.with the hyping plays I've worked on being more of a hype caster due to my lack of that was my biggest criticism of previous seasons.

Thank you and I will work on having more questions to say and work on the problem.I'm useally really tired by the end of a cast so maybe letting my analysis caster handling interviews more might be a good idea :)

I don't have any specific points right now but I think you really improved from last season and it's nice that you stepped up to help with the season coverage this frequently!
