So I was browsing around the GSI page when I found this thread on their forums:
http://gsi.gomtv.com/freeboard/55

Basically it's some guy suggesting that Tasteless is a poor commentator and they should replace him with Klazart.


Please get Klazartsc instead of Tasteless. I've heard Tasteless' commentary before and was beyond bored. Klazartsc's commentary is what got me and thousands more of English speakers into the Proleague. Before Klazartsc I barely even watched Starcraft but now I watch videos every single day. A lot of people would agree with me and probably did the same as me, I bet you. Please take it into consideration and maybe take some time to listen to his commentaries. Basically Tasteless=boring and literally tasteless; and Klazart=in dept analysis, great play by play, great voice, and overall entertaining. Most importantly his commentaries are SUPER addicting. If he posted videos daily I would spend over an hour a day watching them -_-.

I even memorized his page, youtube.com/user/klazartsc


Edit: Actually, there are a lot of Klaz fans on that board saying Tasteless sucks and Klaz should replace him. A ton more here:

Nick "Tasteless" Plott commentating?! Ugh, NO! He has no brain and no understanding of starcraft, his commentating is terrible. Beavis and Butthead could offer more illuminating discussion. I'd rather watch Korean commentators, and I don't understand Korean.

Nothing against Klaz, but his fanboys are annoying as hell.

I personally think Tasteless is the best english commentator out there and after him is of course Artosis and then imo Diggity. I don't like Klazart that much, he kind of annoys me and I hate listening to him say what the PROGAMERS should do because when I hear it, it is 50% of the time wrong and 90% of the time impossible given the amount of resources they have or w/e. Don't get me wrong though, I of course appreciate him doing it for the community and all. Tasteless is a good commentator, funny and knows the game better then any of the other english commentators along side Artosis which is a big appeal especially to the players who know the game very well also. I don't think it translates as much to the average / newb player though.

Its just ludicrous that someone would say something like "replace" tasteless with someone else. Its not like its a single position job. Nick got it because hes a great personality BUT ALSO because he knows the right people and happens to be adept at the position. If klaz wants to go to korea to do the same thing Tasteless having the job shouldnt stop him..

People hating on Tasteless are fucking stupid. How can you listen to his cast and say "wow that sucks?" You can clearly be of the mind that there are better.. I guess. But you certainly cannot say it sucks.. that'd be wrong.

i think both are greats, but tasteless is the best option here because he has the experiencie from other tournaments and has already "worked" whit PROGAMERS xd

The fact that they call Klaz "Klazartsc" tells you that they are just brainless youtube idiots.

Let's just not get started on the whole commentator bashing again. That was the worst "discussion" on this board since the early days of the sc2 forum.

Skew put my thoughts forward exactly. Tasteless is the professional, the first and the greatest candidate in terms of experience and developed portfolios of work. That doesn't undermine the efforts of anyone else, merely that Tasteless is the professional.

I hear a lot about tasteless having a superior understanding of strategy/predicting play etc.

I've seen all of tasteless at WCG and blizzard invitational and haven't really witnessed it. I know that in these casts he had to keep things things basic cause a lot of people watching dont really know much starcraft...but still, i wasn't really impressed.


So anyway, is there any other tournaments hes casted which display another style of commentary? I am assuming he will commentate quite differently in the GOMTV Invitational considering the hype thats been around TL.
Anyone got links to some of tasteless' best commentary?
