TTP TF2 Top Plays - Commentator Voting

**enf** · 02-16-10, 11:40 PM

Alright, not many takers for the commentator spot, but all three are great in their own way. Each one used a different style to voiceover, so this should be an interesting poll. Voting will be open for a week to declare the winner and will go on to do February's Top Plays.

MPJ: Smooth voice, definately the most tactical oriented commentator, gave some good insight on the kills (you were the only one to pick up on ruuki's reflect kill on the pyro, as well as the fact that your bottle kill jump stopped the cap last second to save the back cap)

Pseudo: Good antics, and funny to listen to while still being on point. I like the "he's having a bad day" the best lol. Your personality was definately a strong point in the commentary - it came across very well, and I think its something that would make you identifiable over time. Also I liked that you put in some information to the people playing - it gives the commentary a more community-ish feel where different people have different reputations as classes or playstyles/whatever.

Ted: Started off a little weird, but very well done. Almost poetic - And hilarious. Very strong finish. You either are a genius and improved those as you watched or you put in some good work and thought into the commentary. Still insightful to the small things too. edit: I also appreciate that you took the time for an intro to the commentary.

My main question to myself while watching these is what are we going for here with the commentaries? Serious analysis? Some fun? etc.

In the end Im going with TED just cause of the entertainment value - although props to all who submitted. You guys all have your strengths and it was a tough decision! :4
