As a noob to this game, I personally find it a lot more informative and entertaining to watch a match that has commentary. Who is your favourite commentator? Please post vids as well :)

I like commentators who can call a much not just scream OMG HYPE SWAG F THIS AND F THAT...while its fun for locals at major events where we are trying to make ourselves better how is that going to help when they talk about nothing?

I mean come on guys we need standards.

Swiftbass, D1, Husband, Wife, KirbyKaze, Prog, and Drephen are all pretty good/entertaining.

Yeah I agree. It makes the community look bad.

i would've named waffles and phil before the commentary @ genesis 2

doggy is good, husband and wife are very good\professional, i can't say i've heard swiftbass (i've met him in person and he's mad chill, could def see him doing beast commentary)

i liked DJN and alukard's commentary too, and mango's good but rare

I'd just love to hear HMW and Phil commentate on Brawl after hearing Hbox vs Aramada.

Are you talking about that horrible set at Genesis 2?

*EDIT* Never mind I looked into it and that was the only set they have done commentary for Armada vs Hbox.

*EDIT* Just for clear things up I mean the set itself was horrible when I said that.

Husband + Wife were really good
Dogy is really good
s0ft is amazing

I think you guys are being hard on HMW + Phil
Yeah, they f*cked up Hungrybox vs. Armada
But weren't they good before?
Genesis 1?
Wombo Combo?

Is anyone willing to give them another chance?

you would not get hated for it.

I am not a big fan of it on a national scale. I think we need to become more professional and that will help us grow more.

Waffles and Phil. Their commentary on Armada vs Hungrybox was the only good thing about that set.
Soft is pretty great.
D1 is solid.
Plan 9 needs to come back.
SFAT needs to talk more about shroomed.
Mango just needs to commentate on everything.

I do not agree. I think they get too much of a pass. Where is the professionalism in what they do and the pride. So we want to be taken seriously but call someone a ****** at an event that we consider a big event? That is something I do not agree with.

Again there is nothing wrong with commentary that is joking but there is a place for that and Genesis is not that.

phil and home made waffles yelling at people and screaming in 08 was what hyped me into smash so well.

I could care less of informative commentary. If someone says like "oh, to do good in this match up just grab and combo" thats fine. I can watch the magic happen. But dont elaborate every move a charecter makes. I'll turn off the audio.
