It's like she watched a Captain Flowers casting highlights video and decided to make her whole style just the jokes and puns without the rap god play by play

[dvmanu]

Charitable comments by Dom tbh. Coulda gone the hater route but was pretty constructive

[nufasniyamathulla]

At least we know that blood is running through Luger's veins.

[Brother_Miller]

Loved how Dom described this… I’m not always paying 100% attention to the stream, so it’s frustrating to not know what’s going on based off of the play-by-play…

[Luckypants]

I don’t envy anyone who tries play by play. It requires a lot of game knowledge and an ability to immediately assess the situation and articulate it in a coherent way. It’s not easy. Imo a good play by play should almost allow you to close your eyes and picture what is happening without seeing it. Great play by play can do that and also be colorful and not sound repetitive. It’s what makes captain flowers so good. I’ve tried to be patient with letigress, it’s a hard job and if you look at chat for 2 seconds you’ll see an insane amount of hate any time she appears or says a word. So I try not to pile on. But she’s been doing it for awhile now and she hasn’t gotten any better. She tries to be colorful and use interesting phrasing but it usually leaves her stumbling over her words. You can tell she often has 2 separate sentences in her head and will often combine them in an awkward way accidentally. She does goofy voices that come of more cringe then funny….. I don’t like hating on her but she really just struggles sometimes. Personally if it’s not Azael and Flowers I’d rather just turn the volume down. Lol

Dom casually being a better caster without even trying 😅

[MoinMeister_]

Title misleading, clearly not having thought about the legendary "OUUUU THE KNOCKUP ONTO TWOOOUU, WOMBO COMBO

[joshi]

I respect pointing out her lack in confidence, I am sure her expedited progress on the broadcast and all the negative feedback can be overwhelming but she just has to learn the game and practice her flow and it'll come. It's pretty unbearable though - nobody is wrong about that. I just respect the constructive approach instead of blind hate. She probably has potential in academy or something where they need some life. Not for the main broadcast tho - at least not for now.

[szephyr]

I think she needs some time in academy to get better and up her casting chops. This definitely felt like her worst casting, I normally don't mind her but here she just sounded tired.

[YaraUwU]

The casters job is to keep the confusing parts understandable and the boring parts entertaining. Artosis and Tastless casting SC2 are perfect examples of this.

[Nao-pjmc]

A shout caster has one main job and its to quickly convey the most important pieces of informations, often the information that is easily missed by the average viewers. When most leagues hire casters, they want to see you having casted before, doesn't even have to be the same game because just knowing whats going on in a game is the first and most important step to play by play. I hate saying that a woman only got her job because shes a woman because that isnt even the case, you cannot convince me that she is one of the best female casters out there, even the valorant tier 2 na female caster (no idea what her name is) is better than this and she isnt that great herself either.

There must be women out there who are decent at casting, why hire someone who isnt. There isnt even an argument about money to be made, there is no way that hiring her is much cheaper than any other female caster. I think its really good to integrate more women in to a broadcast but not if its at a cost of the viewing experience, there are of course bad hires that are men as well but they feel more like bad scouting instead of just grabbing the first woman available. Theres just no world where you could convince me that women can get good at literally every other job in esports production apart from casting, do some sort of scouting, there must be people available out there. Kitty for the lpl is a good example of a very decent caster, she might not be as good as the best of the best but if you put her next to someone like flowers or drakos, she would bring her own value to the cast and wouldn't ruin the experience at all.

When LeTigress casts i just turn the sound off, she managed to not only be bad at keeping track of whats going on in the game, shes also bad at casting itself, the words she uses and what words she puts emphasis on, you dont have time to speak slowly in the middle of a big fight, thats the kind of thing you do when the fight is dying out and nothing is really happening anymore, you should copy the pace of the game when shout casting.

[akram]

just let her cast academy to get her rounds in she's clearly not ready yet
markz who's a solid caster had to go through casting academy to get spots on the main broadcast

[mayushi]

why is she still casting i dont get it

[jakubpalak]

When I close my eyes I just heard morty doing the classic "oohhhh ohhh

[evbbjones]

Careful Dom. Criticism of LT is NOT to be tolerated! Obviously nobody can have a legitimate criticism here, it's gotta be incel hate against women.

[Nick-]

I really appreciate Dom staying on topic and pointing out what exactly made the casting bad and how it could have been better, instead of just memeing or making jokes about it. Constructive feedback is super important when pointing out mistakes, so that people can improve.

Esp appreciated him pointing out the lack of a summary at the end of the fight, bc it's a super important part of casting that sometimes gets overlooked when talking about whether casting is good or bad. Even if the fight itself is narrated perfectly, if you're just listening it can be hard to remember who exactly got what. I only recently started paying attentiont to the quality of casting, but you'll notice for example Flowers at the end of a fight gives a short but informative summary, which for this fight would be something like "two kills on each side, but CLG secures the dragon and denies C9 soul point." Which then gives the color caster a perfect opening to launch into an analysis of what comes next or what the overarching impact of the fight might be going forward.

[greenlit]

Sounds like she climaxed at the dragon getting set up.

[CinemaSteve]

It's just annoying that she's doing this on the main LCS broadcast while Academy has much better casters. Every academy caster they've brought in has done so much better on the main broadcast than her. Why does she keep getting more and more shots every week when she's not improving? Bring in the ones who've been grinding for years to cast.

[Flyboyminer]

Your 5 seconds of casting was such a breath of fresh air. Holy smokes I didn't realize I was starving till I tasted that.

[pizdaloverbby]

That moment when you realize 5 seconds of play-by-play in this video are better than the whole letigress season
