Tobi: "The popularity of DotA is in the hands of the community."
Posted by Dexter "kurtcos" F 4 months ago
In an exclusive interview with joinDotA's TobiWanKenobi done up by none other than GamersBook, Tobi talks about his experience as a shoutcaster along with his insight into the game and its future as an eSports title.
With virtually all his casts brimming with intensity, it leaves one wondering how Tobi maintains such a high level of energy throughout games which may run for hours.
"Some games I admit are a challenge, but it is in those moments you need to dig deep, find excitement in the smallest thing, or make the most of the opportunity to do other things."
Even so, Tobi admitted that it was not an easy ride and streaming DotA required dedication and passion till the end.
"I believe I did one thing that so many DOTA streamers did not do, and that is cast frequently and be dedicated to the coverage."
Nevertheless, Tobi could not deny that he loved his job especially since it entailed travelling all over the world and being a part of large scale events such as SMM.
..."the atmosphere at LAN events is just so awesome, there is something about a live crowd that gets under my skin and pumps me up. SMM I would have to say is my favorite event."
One would certainly expect to see more of Tobi and joinDotA in the future as tournaments flood in, but for now, read the entire interview found at this link.

| #17: I didn't ask anyone to like me, nor do I care if a random like you don't like me. And how am I a troll? "You're obviously not familiar with the word troll" |
| ToBi THE MAN |
| BLACK HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLE |
| I actually preferred luminous over tobi, but now that I am starting to watch tobi's streams, like it said in the article he is consistent with releasing commentaries where as luminous definately is not, all the other casters are just garbage compared to those two. Maybe 1 or 2 other good ones but definately not as good as tobi / lumi. I've learned to cope with tobi's sometimes unnecessary shouting and waking up my entire household. |
| Tobi usually seem very hyperactive as if he's on some drug , a bit too much for my taste when he goes crazy over nothing. He's a great chap and a good caster, I just think he needs to turn it down a notch to avoid wearing your ears out. |
| everyone is shaclking:D |
| Tobi is simply Awesome.. |
| TOBI <3 continue the goodwork. |
| @22 Man! Tobi's shoutcasting is like womens moan, the louder the better. How can you ever want to turn it down? lol |
| Tobi is the best.. <3 |
| Tobi with Harry Potter as duo caster es #1 |
| Best ever shoutcaster in Dota... He always shoutcast with his heart out...More power to you Tobiwan...Hope you can visit us here in the PH.. :) |
| Tobi, HANDS DOWN EARTHLINGS |
