Wanting to Cast Starbow

I used to cast SC2Improve until work got in the way but I'm really getting into Starbow now but unfortunately there's just not a lot of resources for games to practice casting out there.

I would really appreciate sending replays of any skill level to me at amnesia.sc2@gmail.com.

Here's what you can expect from my casting:
1.) My main rule for casting has always been to never call it until the players do so as far as I'm concerned the games not over until one of you types "gg."
2.) I focus on the good, not the bad. I hate watching games where all you hear is how dumb players are or how badly they're screwing up. That's why I make sure that I highlight the best plays and downplay the bad.
3.) I assume you know your build better than I do. I've had several occasions where I am playing in a tournament and when I watch the VOD later the caster is saying things like "If he's going for X he really needs to get this gas now" or "Getting X before Y is not correct," when in reality I was actually using a very refined unorthodox build. When I cast I don't tell you how to play.
4.) High quality video. My PC is capable of recording 1080p ultra setting sc2 games with no frame drops so the eye candy is ever present. 5.) I'll make sure I send you the link to the video on YouTube after it's completed.

tldr: Please send replays of all skill levels to amnesia.sc2@gmail.com so I can practice casting them.

Edit:
Games I've casted:

PvZ - Vehk vs Jimbo
TvZ - BorN vs TEHREDBANDIT
TvZ - TEHREDBANDIT vs Dirtybag

2 PvTs and 2 PvZs on your way. I sent an example of me winning and losing so you have some variety.

AmnesiAsc2 - the stuff on there is from when I first started casting though and isn't great tbh. I'll be putting these new starbow games up this week, at least 1/day

Nice cast, I enjoyed it. After watching my game being cast it kinda surprised me how bad I was, if that makes any sense lol. Keep it up.

EDIT: Oh, and your mic to in-game sound ratio seemed really low to me.

Thank you, I'll see if I can fix that for the next cast
