I would just like to congratulate Artosis on starting out his NASL run with a bang. As you have probably seen HERE the official NASL website clearly lists Artosis in second place!
Now that all you nay-sayers have been proven wrong, feel free to bow at his feet.
I just thought we should celebrate what might be his highest rank all season! Artosis fighting!!
All kidding aside I look forward to seeing Artosis play. A lot of people (including pros) have laughed about his qualification for NASL but personally I think people should wait and see. While I agree that Artosis would be hard-pressed to win an MLG event or GSL season I think he has an excellent chance of winning within the NASL format. With time to prepare for specific maps/matches he will have an opportunity to exploit his experience and excellent game knowledge. Your thoughts?
Edit: fixed links
2nd Edit: The fun has ended, now that games have been played the players are now ranked based on win/loss. The link still shows the players alphabetically but... Artosis fighting!!!!

Quote from Xeris in the THREAD dedicated to why they picked players.
"Overall, we chose 3-4 players (Artosis, Grubby, MoMaN) who were designated as “fan favorites” and 3-4 players (ViBe, CrunCher, DarkforcE) who may be considered “underdogs.” The rest of the players were chosen based on their results and skill level. "
He isn't expected to do great. But if he does its amazing. With that said is this blogworthy IDK! Artosis Hwaiting!

I saw the original... but thx for edit all the same. at least you read the op in the end. i think he will do very well actually

Ace is doing even better! he's gonna be my new hero!

Top 3 all protoss? Imbalanced! :D
|
Artosis plays PROTOSS? LOL I have never heard a more ironic thing in my life. It would be like having Sean Hannity vote democrat.
|
I really hope he does well, but i'm kinda worried that the lag from korea will hurt his play too much.
The TSL is less exciting because it hyped up all the top korean players, then tied their hands with lag, would be a shame if the same happened with Artosis.
|
Why are people badmouthing Artosis so much? Sure he doesn't get to play as much cause, you know, he has a job and everything...but he's going to be a strategy master (as long as he keeps his head straight in game), he practices on the Korean ladder, and he has already nearly qualified for Code A multiple times. I'm not saying he's going to take it down, but with good game-planning (which he surely will have) he's going to be a force to be reckoned with.

hopefully with the games being casted using replays the lag will be minimized- no extra observers and such. I worry about this too... I wish it listed the player's ping on the APM tab in replays so at least the spectators would know if lag is affecting the game.

1. They are cast live, not from replays.
2. Read Jinro's thread on lag before jumping on the hater bandwagon and derailing more threads.
3. Judging from Artosis' youtube video's, he is already really good at P so I think he'll be a contender along with Grubby!

From official NASL thread:
Question: Will the games be casted from replays?
Answer: Games will NOT be cast from replays. The games will be cast AS they are being played, they just won't be STREAMED live... after the cast, the videos will be sent to production, and after editing they will be broadcast in the evenings.
- Backpack is correct, the broadcast method confused my small brain :-P
As for the "lag hater bandwagon" I really just want to show the ping so Blizzard has to constantly display the idiocy of segregated servers. I do agree with the argument that you can practice to adjust to the lag (and a professional should be ready and willing to go to these lengths)

It's clear that Artosis is where he belongs. How dare any of you question his decision to switch to Protoss. A smart man knows which race is the most powerful at the moment.
|
I too am very keen to see Artosis play. I think everyone is very well aware of how busy he is these days, but he certainly sounds like despite his hectic schedule he plans to give it his best shot.
Of course I wish he was still with the swarm but anyway.

What are you talking about,he lost to Sheth
