Awesome video bro; thanks for having me on!

9:10 - This is something I think needs to be emphasized. There's a stark contrast between being good at playing something and being good at explaining it. A lot of people think challenger players also make great coaches for instance, because they're high elo. That may not always be the case since it's one thing to look through your own experienced lenses, but trying to explain stuff that is common sense to you, to someone who doesn't see it like that, is a whole other ball game. I remember people used to make fun of Phreak for only being diamond 4 but how many challenger players have the split second thinking to catch every little detail happening in a chaotic fight without tripping on their words the way Captainflowers does?

As someone who doesn't really watch or play league anymore, this content is fantastic. Loving the documentary style and interviews. These videos deserve more views!

Captain flowers should be paid for being a skarner main. Manly men like him are rare these days.

I used to be a caster for well-known and watched German Amateur scene and ESL Poland for CS GO. It was a great time, I have so much respect for the great shoutcasters.

Hey everyone! I have a Second channel now! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNByY5N_rZamco0.html&ab_channel=DongHuaPShorts This channel is for my shorts will I'll be posting extra content from documentaries and League-based comedy skits. The first video is about Captain Flower's philosophy to success in casting! This video was started almost two months ago, I've had an amazing time learning about the ins and outs of this industry. Thank you to all my casters who participated and go check out their Twitter. Maybe you'll see them on the LCS one day!

That Captain Flowers intro was so sick!

Azael with his wedding pic in the b/g while Capt is just chilling with his homie skarner pic in the b/g XD

39:44 Gotta love Azael reaction to other casters answers :D This guy is always so rational

Hearing Azael talk about Flowers at the end is downright heartwarming

DongHuaP is such an unbelievably amazing journalist, he picks amazing and interesting topics and really dives deep into them. Unbelievable content, I'm curious if he will document other topics outside of league?

Flowers you are the man no question.. you killed this interview. But azael talking about passion vs prep was my fav part. 100% the truth.

12:50 For those who don't know, this guy is Dovydas. He's an awesome musician, you should definitly listen to his stuff ♥

“Prep, I assume, right?” LOL

Come on man Ryu had suffer enough... Poor guy

That moment, when Dash introduced Captainflowers after the whole interview story we just heard, i got such an adrenaline rush. I cant even imagine how incredible stressful it must be. Everything youve done, all the hard work, stress. It was all meaningless for the outside perspective. THIS is your one shot to impress the viewers. And lets be real, viewers always hate to changes, they wanna see their favourite casters.

NA casters keep me more invested in LCS than the players themselves ngl.

I gained so much more rspect and appreciation for the casters. Thank you for sharing this with us. Stay safe!

One day my friends and I were playing custom 5v5s and 2 guys randomly joined before we started, linked us a twitch, and said they were going to shoutcast our game, it was so awesome watching it back, I hope they are doing well.

This is why I've never doubted Flowers's ability to be a phenomenal caster. Watching an game that I'm investing in is exciting, watching when Flowers is casting is an unforgettable experience.

Captain Flowers is the most likeable man on earth

we love cap flowers~! He is a must great energy, awesome observation skills, great lines, and the articulated positivity, the vibe is what makes me come back and listen to his play by plays^^

33:38 "These things might seem like 'well just do it then' problems..." Cap, explaining to fans that depression is a thing--that the Korean 'just get over it' attitude doesn't work. Mad respect for a professional who takes action to maintain their mental health.

I would say this is the best and interesting doc you have done yet. Thank you for that.

This was an awesome video to watch. I’ve done extremely amateur casting with a Canadian secondary school esports association and it’s been a blast to do. Having the spotlight on shoutcasting and the different aspects of it was so great to listen to

Is KZfaq bugged? How does this masterpiece of a video only have 40 k views. I wasn't bored for a single sec of this video, keep up the good work.

Capt. Flower's last point perfectly explain one of Dota's greatest shoutcast: "Ceeeeeeeeeeeeeebbb, he gets the call" by odpixel(Dota's rap god)

seeing Deman and Joe always makes me feel so nostalgic holy crap

what a difficult job man. to choose to get into that profession is such a huge risk compared to any other profession

Great documentary and Azazel climbed up a couple levels for me with this interview

I love this, also whoever did the photoshop at the end, i love you and keep doing you.

Loved this. The interviews were insightful and genuine. I am going through an interview process totally unrelated to casting, but everything they said is still relevant. The dunk on Olivee was unnecessary, but hilarious.

Finally, someone showed that casters matter and how hard is it. It's even harder in smaller regions like Czechia/Slovakia and Western Europe

You should do something with Exil really, with him focusing on ingame issues and you doing stuffs outside that area.

I really appreciate that you made interview with actual casters and put it into video, it gave it more depth and seriousness

Damn, that Zed outplay at the beginning is sick! Never seen that before.

Your voice is too low meanwhile the background music is too loud,other than that great vid!

Captian flowers might be the single coolest person in all of league of legends!!

This is such a great video, and not only the info or interviews, but I really loved the editing. Excellent job!

This is an AWESOME vid. I learned so much. You're so underrated

I like the animations and art you put in the video they were funny. Congrats to the artist

That Olivee clip was literally how it is to cast a game to yourself. ahahaha

Can someone tell me where I can buy that Solid Snake Poster that is hung up on the wall inside Captain Flowers' room? Ex: @29:16

this type of videos are amazing, please keep going!

Thanks for doing these DongHuaP, great videos

Wonderful vid dude. Very hyped to see poll to release

Awesome video! I’d recommend you to take a look at Ibai’s history. He’s by far the best LoL caster in the Spanish community. He left his caster job and became a Streamer, casting all type of things from football to balloon competitions organized by himself. He has won the “Streamer of the year” award twice and he still casts the games of his own esports team now. All of this being just 26 years old…

Vocal Coaching makes all the difference (trust me, I make very odd sounds on songs) and sometimes you are having bad habits that ruin your vocal performance without acknowledging and a coach will help you pinpoint that. It's definitely worth it, if your job is vocal oriented or you need to buff your performance durability and intensity!

Even if it's for a moment, I'm glad you showed some of the FGC casters, they especially are doing this as a thankless job. They all hold day jobs/create content and don't get paid nearly as much as even a proving grounds caster for league of legends for the Capcom Pro Tours. Shout outs to all casters

man, i miss Monte..

21:32 finally fixed naut's hook hitbox

My friend is doing his minor study at the moment about organizing esports events. His first big project was to host a complete LoL tournament. This was last week and he asked me to be the shoutcaster for the event. I don't think I'm that good at it but it was really fun to do for sure!

My favorite caster is Riv. I miss him.

One of my favorite videos so far 😍😍 insane work thank you for the really interesting content !

Incredible video. The part with the chicken leg was hilarious too lmaoo

Great video and I loved the extensive interviews. I'd love to have caster names on screen during the games or at least during champselect. I often really enjoy the cast but have no idea who I am listening to.

14:40 I can't believe you missed the IWD reference with the semi-pro meme.

why is the music so loud ? at least at the part that im on

Was that a skarner poster in Flowers' room? This man has taste

I really disliked Captain Flowers when he first came to the LCS. I was like who is this new guy? I like the other casters and his name is dumb. But the man is so damn charismatic that he won me over in a matter of days and now I think his name is kinda cool and I enjoy his casting a lot.

It was pretty interesting to watch. I pretty much agree with the last statement, that you gotta be yourself and not someone else.

Love those documentaries

Thanks for having me, turned out great!

this made me wanna watch the first game of cpt flowers

I wished Ibai, a spanish ex shoutcaster was here too, but since he doesn't work as shoutcaster anymore I guesa it's understandable. My point is the charisma of a shoutcaster is key, that guy got me interested in the Esports scene.

This was great. Keep up the awesome work!

As someone who is just barely started casting, the whole street performer analogy is quite accurate. Most of the time is just spent looking for openings across many discord channels hoping that one of the regulars can't make it on a short notice.

There is shoutcasters and there is Tastosis.

This channel deserves 1m+ subs. Amazing content. Keep it up! Didn't know my man crush on captain flowers could get any stronger lol

Love your work, keep it up ❤️

Great video, my guy!

Was really hoping you can get an interview with Jatt, would've loved to hear his perspective

Worlds 2018 is was so good Worlds because of Captain Flower in IG vs KT

sjokz be raking in that money for sure

lmao captain flowers playing spongebob when he got the riot job

What a unique but great idea for a video. Very enlightening from someone who works in Smash/FGC production and has many commentator frends. The rates for these league casters are pretty crazy for the semi-pro casters compared to us. It's the obvious difference in esports money levels between a huge developer supported and facilitated game like League vs. condemned to grassroots like Smash. Are the semi-pro casters exclusively League of Legends/Riot casters? Or would they be allowed to freelance to other games? FGC people are all freelance. There's no way Riot would allow CaptainFlowers to cast The International for example. In the FGC, you basically have to learn multiplle games to be able to cast them and while fghting games are all the same genre, there's a of details that have to be learned between each game. Most all FGC commentators have to supplement their commentary gigs with content creation and streaming. Nepotism is sadly rampant in these industries.

Both Captain Flowers and Quickshot deserve a Hall of Fame.

Deficio was my favorite caster i wonder where he is now. So sad

holy shit I made it in a dong huap video and he even flamed me! Poggers 13:02

Player experience first hahaha... "the kits are not overloaded" "mute enemy chat" ... :D

It is basically winning the lottery of casting. How many casting jobs are available worldwide? How many in your language or a language that u are very fluent? They had the luck to be at the right place and at the right time, who wanted to be a league caster 10y ago? Anyways i love capt flowers, he will be missed at worlds!

I died and went to heaven. I miss that smile @8:12

Oh hey I know that guy, I'd like to say it was all because of me cause I casted with him in his last amateur tournament ;)

Background mzsic is kinda loud at times but really interesting video nonetheless

22:28 AZAEL HAD HAIR ?? 😲😲

never would have guessed to see DØVYDAS in a league of legends video lmao

I remember back when I heard flowers cast. I knew he was going to be legendary.

they deliver the hype as always

Captain Flowers calls Football the correct name. Ok, I'm invested now.

15:00 is it's so gradual, how come bad caster like tigress can reach that level ?

So what you're saying is, in ten years from now, 34 year old me can make as a Riot Employed Color Caster. Nice.

When I think of league of legends esport, I don't think about Bjergsen, Faker or Rekkles, I think of Captain Flowers.

is there a painting of a skarner skin in the background at the wall?

Lovely video. Sad there will be no flowers in world. Really sad.

Music’s a bit tol loud on this one, at least at the beginning, other than that, class documentary as usual

Just shout, OH MY GOD THIS IS GREAT TEAM WHISTLES AND THISTLES IS WINNING WITH MISSILES

Cool video on the scene! I just wanted to chime in and say that I don't have an issue with you ripping a clip from my KZfaq channel for content about amazing casters, but it's kinda weird that you set the clip up to make it look like Azael is dunking on me as a caster. Especially since the clip was taken out of context where me and Flowers were just goofing. No hard feelings but it doesn't feel super great to see :(

Okay, probably not the place to ask, but do you play Legends of Runeterra? Every so often in Diamond or Masters I see a Dong Haup Would be cool if you did Legends of Runeterra content as well It's Worlds was insane

my favourite caster duo are medi and vedi idk their names tbh ^^ medic and vedius? medius and vedic? does not matter I enjoyed listening to them a lot in the past

Awsome video! Very insightfull!
