The game is old, but the casting is fresh.

Edit: To OP: How can we find more of these videos? And thanks for the post of this =D

None of this is fresh. The game and the casting is from a two-year-old tournament which was broadcast in English as well as Korean. This was Tasteless's major-league debut, you might say. You can find all the VODs of the tournament here.

This is wrong man...these casts have been done recently (you can tell in Tasteless's voice/the fact that he's with Jason Lee who only started casting during SC2). The casting is new, the games are old.

Wow, I had no idea they were still "creating" new content, and with Tasteless casting, at that...

I've been looking up Arirang to try to find out who funds it, and apparently, it's partially owned by MBC? If I could read Korean I would be able to make sure if this was true, but...WTF!

I hadn't actually watched the video at first; just assumed it was the original cast with Daniel Lee (instead of Jason Lee) but having glanced at it now, I see you're right. Sorry for the misinformation.

That would be awesome, Tasteless' casting of BW was miles better than what he's doing in SC2, and it always looked like he was much more into it as well.

Tasteless accidentally referred to spore colonies as spore crawlers lol. I think that confirms that it's recent.

I've known for ages Tasteless did casting for arirang, if I remember correctly they even upload content on youtube.

Tasteless didn't promote this show because he actually doesn't want to promote BW. pisses me off to no end actually, feels like a traitor. Well tbh everyone who's doing SC2 stuff right now feels like a traitor.

Tasteless didnt promote it because there were political issues involved. For the first 3 years he casted without being allowed to admit HE was doing it. Someone elses face was used. Long story

Sorry, but I don't think it's my place to disclose that information. I think you get enough of an idea without me saying too much. I don't think Nick would appreciate me telling details of his life. If you can get HIM to answer, more power to you. It really isn't that big a deal and everything has since been figured out. It's really just gossip in the end. The important thing is that yes he has been casting BW for the last 4 years and if you'd like to see more of it, let them know on the message board at arirang.co.kr My understanding is that the show will be cancelled in the spring if there isn't enough interest.

The Korean site very likely just doesn't know about TL. Because they pay Tasteless and surely would like to get more viewers and if they knew TL they would come here because that would have certaily ensured them thousands of additional views for every show and probably also a 4-digit number of new members for their site.
But Tasteless knows TL. So why doesn't he want us to know? What is going on there behind the scenes?

Also: Total, complete and unexcusable Fail by us. How did this go unnoticed? Why did no one know about the show? Why didn't those few who knew the show notice that there wasn't a thread on this on TL? We are hungry man. We are fucking hungry and now you tell us "oh I thought you'd knew about that hidden pantry full of awesome free food. And btw they will close it soon because no one else is eating from it." ???

Completely baseless accusations on tasteless. And to call everyone who switched to sc2 a traitor is just lame. Yeah, they may have done it because of the money getting pumped into the game atm. If anything they just played it smart and did what they would get the most out of. That could seems kinda egoistic, but you have to be that once in a while when it comes to career decisions.

This is just the impression I got from watching the show.

He kept on saying things like: "Back in Star 1 players used to"... I mean wut. You're casting it right now what do you mean back in? Things like that just annoyed me a ton, I got the impression that he wanted to give the impression that BW was outdated.

I apologize if that was the incorrect impression.

This forum right here, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=6 is the largest Starcraft/esports forum in the English speaking community. Not letting us know about this and then saying 'not enough interest' is unconscionable.

On the other Hand, since the games that they're casting are so old, could there possibly be any interest in casting foreigner tournaments? There are some really awesome games in the tournaments section here and it would be really cool to see Tasteless cast them.

I just dont have an explanation for why Tasteless was not posting this on TL. I just dont have one. Not even an idea. Something is wrong with this.

I haven't seen a post by tasteless in forever. Pretty sure he quit TL altogether.

Before I knew anything about TL, this is where I used to watch VODs. A few years ago they showed it on Thursdays and Fridays. When SC2 showed up, they moved BW to Wednesday (previously the slot for WC3 games) with SC2 taking up BW's slot.

I thought this is common knowledge here too...

If memory serves right, it was Jason Lee and a host of other commentators who casted not Tasteless.

If you want to visit the message board of Airang TV's e-sports section then THIS link is for you. I strongly advice those who want to see their BW coverage continued, expanded and improved upon to go there and make your voices heard. It certainly couldn't hurt.

yes, i made a reply there but theres really nobody posting about it, even though there are interested people here.

This is exactly why the show will most likely be cancelled. Everyone complains about not knowing, but when it comes to action to save the show, no one actually does anything about it. Only 2 posts there to show arirang that people are watching.

Man few people are going to sign up to a Korean website. Every other tournament is happy to engage the audience where they are, on TL.

People here justifiably feel a bit betrayed, you cast in english, but don't talk to the biggest english community. That makes no sense.

Why isn't there a TL event for this thing every week? It's always the organizer's responsibility to add things like that.

Oh I had forgotten about these. I can't figure out where to click to run the archive videos. (Or are they just pictures now and the VODs taken down?) They go all the way back to 2008 Starcraft #33 and up to Starcraft #289. That's a lot of BW. I had meant to watch more of these before, but it slipped my mind.

Well not exactly. Not unless Arirang TV had a huge backlog of casted games.
The last archived Starcraft BW game was December 8, 2011 so there was a significant overlap. I remember being rather shocked that Tasteless had been casting all that time and we hadn't heard a peep of it anywhere until they were basically finished. (All the more because by 2011 I had started paying attention to BW again.)
