He straight up says in this group that he's not in the mood to cast so sorry it's gonna be ****. He talks about money very often for someone who chooses to cast "professionally". Said if you'd rather watch xxx cast then go do so, yet he's the one in charge of these tournaments. Pretty much overall just seems like a negative to be in the position that he is...
Idk maybe it's just me... End rant
If other casters did more than official events, Wardi would get pushed into irrelevancy pretty quickly. I understand why they don't, since at this point they're all basically streamers who have a side gig of casting EPT/GSL events. Nor does it help that half of them live in Korea or Australia, so timezones are a ***** for Western-targeted events.
And since the game isn't really that big anymore, it's not a good target for people who want to get into casting, which is a shame because half the normal lineup would be out on their asses with Wardi if Starcraft managed to pull even a quarter of the casting talent other games do.
So Wardi fills the niche of vacuuming up all the B-tier events no one else wants to waste their time on, half of which are tournaments he organizes anyway so of course he'll cast it. He works his ass off, and I respect him for that, but he's basically the casting equivalent of the guy who plays 2000 games a season and is still hardstuck Gold.
