Zhi doesn’t even push the boundaries hard, I want to believe that some people just pretend to feel awkward about the shit he says. I mean if there are people genuinely uncomfortable with his sense of humor then I don’t even know what to say
If any commentator on national tv for any sport said half the awkward stuff he does theyd be fired before the end of the game and thered be headlines about it.

Err not so much some people just have a sense of humor. Fox employee and a Australian employee making jokes. And this is a regulare thing
I agree zhi can take it to far with “bukakke firbals to the face” but he is one of the most knowledgeable casters. Not gonna make comparisons but his knowlege is the best compared to standard casters.
Now whenever Justin “wong factor” Wong comments im hype. He knows the game, comments well and jokes appropriately
TLDR: For the gamers watching its no big deal but some others people may not want hellen keller/bukakke/back-ne jokes but he has alot of good jokes like daigo being an arsonist as he does crmk xx ex hado fadc ulta multiple times
Remember that guy who got ripped off of commentary because he said something innocuous about, I think, Sherry, and F. Champ had the stream guy kick him off? That shit was the best thing to ever happen in commentary history because of how idiotic it was.
Close second is when Chris G. and some anime dude argued in circles for over an hour with no point being made. I watched the whole thing like it was a bloody car crash I was so amazed.
Really like commentary from Ultradavid, Ryan Hunter, Aris, JWong, Huoshen, Mike Ross, Combo and the gdlk Chris Hu (hold the AquaSilk though). Ski and Gems Chen are “barely” OK (don’t actually mind them).
Zhi, Yipes (and his copies), Matrix, CORN, Arturo etc are automatic mute. Especially Zhi who is just downright offensive and, for the most part, not funny. If you really need an example at this point, I guess it’s not a problem for you or you don’t watch many streams.
CORN is a team, not a player. Either that or he has a severe split personality issue.
zhi should never change he is amazing
He doesn’t make me feel uncomfortable, just annoyed. I’ve listened to him a few times. It’s as if he wants to be the new Yipes from the MvC2 days. Even Yipes isn’t the Yipes from the MvC2 days. I mean, sure it’s fun to see someone show how clever they are by calling a move out as some sort of reference to something else, but that shit doesn’t belong on commentary. Call the move what it is and keep that shit moving, b.
I Like Zhi. Got his own personality. If you don’t like him, watch something else, or press the mute button. GG
I don’t think his personality is the problem. Skisonic has his own personality, too, but you don’t see anyone defending him on that do you?
Can’t beat that argument, IF U DUN’ LIEK IT DEN JUZ HIT DA MOOT BTN FGT.
Sigh.
How about you guys just play video games…
And if my wife is asleep during Sunday night on a tourney weekend (this is typical)? Do I just wake my wife up by playing on my arcade stick just because Zhi is there?
I swear man, people these days have no idea what problem resolution is. You don’t see and recognize a problem and then tell someone to ignore it. No problem goes away if you ignore it. You talk to other people who have that problem and you find a way to do something about it. This is how fucked up systems that no one agrees with stay in effect.
It’s not hard to look for. Twitch archives are kind of hard to play back these days, too.
Sounds like Walter White talking to Jesse
zhi is fucking gold. he really knows his technical stuff, and his analogies and references are hilarious. i have no idea how he can pull all these random jokes on the fly
The bigger problem is we’re going around in circles about a problem that doesn’t actually exist other than his sexist remarks. Which is just publically putting out there what we would say at a bar or club any way.
Immature guys on here really cant be talked to about whats wrong with really inappropriate comments. You may say some weird jokes around a group of your guy friends, but its not what youd (hopefully) say when nice girls were around. Its really weird seeing how people dont see how the language he uses could be seen as a negative, and it speaks volumes about how much Capcom doesnt give a damn about what people say while commentating about their games.
It seems to me that all you haters just don’t get FGC style commentary as a whole and just want regular, boring old Esports commentary. Makes me wonder how y’all would react if some of the old greats such as Rockefeller (the GODFATHER of SF commentary) were still around.
Rockefeller at his finest
Thank goodness we have guys at MadCatz who understand what stuff makes the FGC different from Esports and have the balls to not only put Zhi on commentary, but to put him in charge of their marketing (Zhi is their Marketing Manager for the Asia-Pacific region).
Someone tell this Zhi fellow to wear a dress and then you will see how quickly these same scrubs will want to change the title of this thread to just “We need to get zhi off”
Might even send him on a free trip to Japan…
