They told everyone to sit down because they were gonna show something, but then they just played Rashid's theme instead. It would have been kind of funny except that no one really knew what was going on and it was just awkward.

Aris seems like a nice guy. What he did was dumb, but I don't think he'd make the same mistake twice. That said, he tries way too hard to be jokey on stream and it just gets grating after a while. Smart guy though. I'd like him better if he just relaxed a bit instead of trying to force a laugh every thirty seconds.

It felt like Zhi couldn't stand to commentate the actual matches, but always wanted to tell an anecdote or make jokes. His only reactions to the matches were incredulous gasps and "WHAT WAS THAT!!"

Cat Machine posted:Anyone But ZhiSonic is fine by me I think Aris' humor sounds a little forced, but Zhi's commentary is the most desperate, flopsweaty thing in the FGC. Again, smart guy though. I'd enjoy his commentary if someone just sat him down and patiently explained to him that he wasn't funny.

It sometimes surprises me how well he knows the games he commentates. Then he starts making airplane noises and screaming poo poo about vampires because he's desperate for that stream monster validation. Push some numbers.

Zhi seems reeled in because there wasn't a Rashid when he commentated.

How much of a shitshow is emergency registration likely to be at NCR? Watching Final Round got me hyped up, so now I'm thinking about making the 2 hour drive up to Sacramento on Saturday to get bodied in pools and play casuals all day.

I spent yesterday watching Final Round and whenever Zhi was on I just wanted him to shut up because he's painful to listen to. Say what you will about Ultrachen being dry or not knowing the game or whatever, but I don't get the urge to smack them. In fact, Ultradavid came to my hometown a couple weeks ago and we all played a few sets with him in SF5 and 3s and he was a really cool, chill dude. Yipes and Chris Hu are like God-tier commentators, though. Chris Hu is like a comedy confucius and everything that comes out of his mouth is pure gold

If I missed something he did or said that was particularly horrible I'd like to know about it. I've only seen him commentate a few times in the past year and he seemed smart, if a little too jokey. I definitely don't remember him going off on minorities or trans people. Edit: Unless you're referring to the Cross Assault thing which was, yeah, kinda rotten.

Aris has gone on record as stating that sexual harassment is an instrinsic and non-negotiable part of FGC culture, and that efforts to remove sexual harassment from the community and the culture are frankly unethical.
