"This is a sad day for Koreans" "I don't know where the hell midas is getting all his units.......haha" "OMG I can't believe I missed that"(first recall of draco) "sorry......lost control of my mouse"
2)Tasteless: "He once ripped a nerd's heart out and ate it; just for asking what race he played" (forgot which match) Mondragon match was talking about Mondragon.
It seems to me that his trademark phrase has become "*explanation*....but! HOLD THAT THOUGHT RIGHT NOW!"
My favorite quote however is definitely from the draco vs. midas match:
"It looks like Draco has probably practiced this strategy...and OH MY GOD YES HE HAS cus theres two dts coming over here right now. And there gonna be-this is like a bad dream right now for terran, I am not even kidding."'
"my nipples are really hard right now marces and i am not sure if its because is so cold out here or because i am so exited to see this game get started." pregame of oov vs lamar.
In the StYm vs Midas game on gaia, djWHEAT and tasteless were talking about the probes getting stuck inbetween the gateways, i can't remember what exactly was being said but it was fucking hilarious, haha.
-Legend vs IloveOov-. Legend has a shuttle with a reaver on Oov's exp but there are mines placed. "Noooooooooooo,Noooooooooooooooooooo dont do that ,Nooooooooooo,ahh ok he has an obs he can see the mines".ahahahahahahahaha
there was one game where he started talking about reavers dying and going to "reaver heaven." dont know exactly how it went but it was so random and funny.
I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but I haven't gotten a straight answer:
There's 4 VODs up on GGL. They're all on the main stage. I've seen two other videos that were given by TL.net'ers of Tasteless commentating games that aren't on the main stage. How many videos like that are there? Is there any website hosting those or have people just recorded those themselves?

Tasteless is awesome... unlike Wacksteven. I still remeber him casting the midian game in 2k5 wcg. "I HAVE TO DISAGREE TASTELESS I PLAY ZERG AND I LOVE ZVZ11!1" and then "LOL TASTELESS WILL WE BE SEEING ZERGLINGS IN THIS ZVZ?!~1//1"
But yeah my favorite quote has to be the one with the hard nipples. YOU RULE TASTELESS!
Well that just burns my biscuits! I can't watch these for some reason, though I can watch the ones from 2k4 and 2k5! God damnit I'm watching the 2k5 ones and I'm getting pretty pissed off with god damn wacksteven VYING FOR CONTROL of the shoutcast against somebody who actually plays starcraft -_-''~

This was funny because he made it seem like it was even a close call. Tasteless's commentating is the best.
Did he actually say bikes suck against vultures, or was that a mistake from you? It would be even funnier if he did :D

There are a lot of small mix ups in tasteless' commentary mixing up unit names but it's completely understandable considering the speed at which things happen in SC. And he gets his pronouns mixed up but he seems to have fixed that problem pretty well now.
ANd I remember that Vulture raid Gaia on Stym vs Midas... ahahah that was pretty damn funny.
"That hydralisk will live to tell the tale to it's hydralisk friends out there" JulyZerg vs Eagle (? not sure) "You got to get out of there DT, get out DT, gogogo DT, get out, Yeaaaaah" Draco vs Midas "You guys outside passing by, you got to get in and take a seat beacause this game will be so nice, it'll change your life forever!" Before a cast in cyberspace2
One of my favorites was from the WCG USA 2006 Finals. There was this BMX exhibition show that went on before the matches. One of them happened to be right before a SC match.
When it was over and tasteless started his commentary he said,
"HEY... IF YOU GUYS THINK THAT BMX SHIT IS HARD, YOU'VE NEVER SEEN CRAZY GUYS PLAY STARCRAFT"
I know that's not the exact quote, but it was hilarious considering the BMX guys were kind of like, "Dude, what the fuck!"
He had another good one where the game started and he wasn't looking at the camera, and he turns to the camera and says:

Holy Macaroni !!!! Manifesto7-Tastless cast !!! Now I got a boner...
man tasteless did a great job again this year, i especially enjoyed his solo casts on the stage 2/3 games..
hope you'll be back in '07
i don't think i had a favorite quote that hasn't already been mentioned, but i always enjoy overall how tasteless just explodes with emotion at the key turning points of the game
anyways enough circle jerking, fuck shit whore *ahem* testosterone
Tasteless: (on Gaia when a reaver was unloaded on the 2 o'clock choke and he missed the reaver was in the shuttle on his way home again) "The Reaver .. uh .. where did the reaver go?"
DjWheat: (while oov walked over another Terran) "He just run over them like a schoolbus over a bunch of kids" "I'm noot so keen on the clock, lets say they are both at the bottom of the map"
well done tasteless. i actually couldn't imagine starcraft games can be commented in such an enthusiastic way and so that even noob understand what's going on.
yup gotta agree, tasteless. i was watching close to all of the games you commented (also during work ) and i gotta say sometimes you got me crackin up i couldnt help but LOL and my coworkers were like "wtf is he doin again...."
Though there is one thing he could try and think about in the future, and that's the bad habit of saying uhm every sentence. Just because you are unsure what to say the very next second, there is no reason to make a noise! You don't have to talk continuously, so try to work on this bad habit, since you appear a bit stupid or clueless even though you're not. It's a very bad habit, so just try to break it.

It is not an apparence, Tasteless is a bit stupid and clueless. He makes good cookie tho and keep a clean house...
Oh wait, that was Bree Van de Kamp... don't mind me.
no man, i think its best with him saying "uh" every once and a while, it keeps it kind of entertaining
and i hope both of you cast next year too, you provide alot of good info, and Wheat dumbs it down so that the non bw players understand it more, plus you two are wicked funny together

Well then, you may have literally said it, but it is pretty obvious it's not at all what you meant. Therefore it's not "essentially what you said".
To contribute to the topic itself, I don't have any new quotes. I watched all the VODs, and I thought that Tasteless + DJWheat together really did a nice job. I was impressed with how much better djwheat is at BW than Wacksteven (casting-wise I mean), and how he has improved from not knowing anything from the game.
I also think I remember messaging you and saying to let it go.
I thought tasteless was awsome this year, easily the best english casting I have heard. Wheat played the role perfectly, lobbing up the softball questions and letting Tasteless run off on his tangents.

if you want to continue doing this rather change to msn, since going offtopic on purpose with shitposting is not really helping much to get a propper thread (should be a thread about nick and not me)
Just as a reference i watched a few VODS from last year with Wacksteven and Tasteless ( and they were really dull (especially with just wacksteven) compared to this new material. It'll be nice next year with WCG in Seattle so the VODs will hopefully be up alot faster (they could drive it from Seattle to California faster than that 30kb italien connection :p).
who who is? Tasteless? hes the one with bright red hair.
EDIT: OH wait I think I get it. No idea who the guy on the far left is. Far right is mondragon, next to mondragon is testie, below testie is selector (?), above him are tasteless and slog next to him in the canada shirt is zergraptor...no idea on the last one. Oh wait...Artosis?

Get a .mms stream downloader (like this one: http://gmms.sourceforge.net/), then when you view the vods in windows media player press pause, and right click on the screen and push "properties" it will show a little box that says "location" copy the mms:// link into the mms downloader and there you have the vod for editing.
because some of us cant see vods while working this vod you are putting together is gonna be golden for many reasons Kennigit, thank you very much.
Would just like to add that when this vod is made, can't TL post it like a news or something like that so everyone don't have to go trhue like 15 pages just to find the thread.

I had nothing to do with your ban, i could not even ban ppl. I am still in italy and had no internet since almost 2 days. I do not know you at all and your reply sounded just like a "i want to jump on the lets flame train" from Idra (we have at least a reason why we do not get along very well).

The ONLY thing that bothers me sometimes about his commentating is that he will literally say "uh" or "um" every 3 seconds or more! If he didn't do that I don't think anyone would have very much to complain about. He always has something to say and there is never dead air. His dialogue is both informative and relevant.
"Whack" stevens Ianetti(?). This guy was just hopeless though, jesus christ...
ya at first i thought tasteless was a crappy announcer who didnt really say anything informative, but now hes getting a little better at incorporating his humor with useful commentating
"Savior is experiencing some technical problems here, apparently his keyboard caught fire because he was playing too fast." Or when Nal_Ra was having driver problems and fixing it in Windows "We see Nal_Ra micro'ing his icons here"
I might misquote some of these, but I think I get the point through. Also, I have started making a video of tasteless quotes if you guys are interested, but I don't have all the vods yet (and would be happy if someone could make a new video when Mani was casting cause that korean guy is really annoying)
When a devour is accidently flying over a shitload of cannons in Savior vs Nal_rA:
"ok that guy is suicidal, BUT THE REST OF SAVIORS UNITS WANTS TO WIN"
"look at those goliaths like having a cigarette and then "OH MY GOD THERE ARE CARRIERS IN MY BASE! WE RUN AROUND!"
"oh does he want me to unpaus? oooh he wants me to unpaus. i got the honor of unpausing the game because the progamers gave me their permission" *looks extremely proud*
tasteless: ooooooh fast nexus. nothing turns me on more than a fast nexus. bunny: man you are pretty easy! tasteless: what can i say... i am a protoss player so..
The funniest part about the next quote is that Nal_rA is just looking as emotionsless as usual:
"oh look at nalra. he's thinking "look im such a baller. cant believe i did all that stuff in that game.""
Right before Nal_rA dropping HTs for storm drop:
bunny: wow im getting excited: tasteless: SHHHHHH he doesn't know it's coming ok here we go *whispering* .... *nal_ra unloads the HTs and starts to storm* tasteless: STORMDROP COMING DOWN RIGHT NOW! SURPRISEEEEEE!!!!
bunny: what happened to all the tanks? tasteless: yeah what happened to all the tanks? nalra was like "ok im pissed im just gonna make a bunch of guys and kill you right now"
"the vultures must have rabies or something. look at them going!"
I mean, Bunny was there, but she was very quiet due to the pressure and being in a foreign setting, so Tasteless took the reigns and shoutcasted 5+ games on his own? Wow, well done. And to a chobo as hell audience. Mad props.

Tasteless, you are the voice of Starcraft. Through your powerful words and strong emotions, you shall drive the nail of professional Starcraft into the minds of the uneducated masses and turn them over! Turn them over I say!
To quote some people on WCReplays:
"wow, sc makes wc3 look like shit" "i don't think i can play wc3 again after watching this" "they still sell the battle chest in stores, right?"
And I can't remember exactly what game, but I think it was with Nal_Ra. But when Bunny suggested they should stop talking about the game because the door to his litte "gaming box" was open, Tasteless replied with "good thing they don't know English".
Tasteless always does such a solid job at the events from WCG to Blizzcon. To top it off, he's such a genuinely nice guy, he's just the ideal shoutcaster. Keep up the good work.
Tasteless owned the stage. None of the other commentators could hold it down like he could. Bunny did a good job considering her lack of knowledge, but his personality just completely dominated,
I like how in that WCReplays thread one of the guys try to say that boxer clone his ghosts to lockdown the BCs, except as far as i know cloning wasnt in the game when he did it. he said it took him 10-17 seconds lawl.

Theres a lot of stupid shit in that thread(Savior has 180 or so apm average for example...), i dont really know why it was linked There was only one sorta back handed comment on tasteless/bunny.
i find it amusing that they can only name some WC3 pros that can have 400ish apm, when you can list alot of SC pros that have 400, or have had 400 apm.
lolz wc3 guys finally realizing why their game is shit compared to ours.
Anyways, I'm becoming a tasteless addict. I missed the entire blizzcon stream due to various reasons, and now i've been desperately laying hands on every blizzcon vod I could get. I need more!
Tasteless you are so friggin hilarious and good at casting bw it's insanse! keep up the gw!
I think what a lot of those war 3 people realized is that certain units in certain situations are very similar to heroes. Like the first vessels in ZvT or the first Tank in PvT or Reaver/shutte.
I was constantly laughing. Tasteless is by far the coolest and best english caster i've ever heard. WCG. Blizzcon. And the best part is, he gets better whenever i see him! I have no idea where he pulls out all his funny lines. But i love them.
Give this man a mic, a brood war game and he hypes you up like crazy. It's a pure shame that he's not casting progames in korea.
Alongside a guy like mani with the background knowledge and statistics and boom! You have it all.

Remember nal_ra vs Iris on blitz-x when nal_ra's carriers where heading towards iris' and tasteless said something like "Omg those goliaths are right there having a smoke..."
Tasteless is a great commentator, although i dislike that sometimes he uses terran or protoss or zerg to name the players rather than call them the players themselves (its annoying). For example, sometimes he'll say "Protoss gets an archon" rather than "Nal_Ra gets an Archon." Recently he's fixed this, and I like his commentating because he gets excited while commentating but doesn't babble incoherently while talking like klazart (not to say klaz isnt a good commentator... COME BACK MAN!). Well, to conclude, Great Job at blizzcon Tasteless.

I'll wait til ESF is over and then start compiling the list of awesome quotes for Tasteless: Part Deux when i get back to school in a couple weeks...unless someone really had the urge to do it before hand that is.

whaha, I love how he makes fun of the girls in the Iris vs Stork MU, especially when the girl puts the sign in front of her head, and in the last game between them when Stork marches into Iris' base, and a girl in the audience screams; and so do tasteless! whaha
"This is soo bad for [playername] right now!" just because it was his most frequently used sentence =) This man has more memorable quotes than Winston Churchill.
"there are neutral creep colonies that you can see, that creep right outside there, that's actually not savior's creep he's not that good he hasnt expanded there yet" savior vs anytime baekmagoji GSI group A. iuno i just thought it was really funny o.o
"Ok, do you see these tanks here? They're more powerful when they are deployed and they got this elephant trunk sticking up and they can do some real damage. If you're a noob you don't know what I'm talking about."
I think Tastless is opting for a relationship with Pandabearguy.
Edit: I almost laughed my guts out first time I heard him mentioned. Just casually, as we were drifting past the middle of Andromeda :-P "And there's the Pandabearguy."
My favorite quote is the hatchery thing.. "Does a Hatchery think?,Does a Hatchery feel?" Or something to that effect. I lol'd really hard when i heard that
PandaBearGuy is the best. Personally, I want to see even more of PandaBear commentary. Tasteless is the best comedic commentator. I think GOM should really get another person to do strategic commentary so Tasteless has more time for his comedic commentary.
Kind of off topic, but is there a way for me to see wcg 2006 videos with Tasteless' commentary. There are on youtube, but the website link does not seem to work and I would like to see all of them.

Has Tasteless gotten a new addiction to Star Wars?
"Actually I would like to commentate with Chewbacca. 'rraaahahawhawrrr'"

Some ones I found quite funny. My favorites are of course the panda bear one, the microphone one cause it was extremely random, and the Korean girls one.
"The panda bear guy in the middle of this all, he's like Switzerland - completely neutral in this battle ."
Intel Classic, Ro32 Day 4: Flash vs HiyA Game 2.
"How big are the size of those Zerglings anyways? Maybe like a dog, or a chicken, I don't know, but they can definitely kick some ass!"
Intel Classic, Ro32 Day 4: Child vs Lucifer Game 1.
"Zergling trying to be a Drone... You will never be a Drone, Zergling, you are cursed."

"I'm pushing the Microphone really close to my mouth; I'm practically making out with the Microphone."

he also mentioned "clone wars" he said it was a bad movie
I don't remember the games, but: "The probes are mad, like: you killed our friend!" "It must be pretty boring to be an overlord" "Do you ever name your probes?" "Is it cold inside of the stasis[field]?" and most recent "Shuttle has got a shuttle"
Anybody remember the quote Tasteless had about angry savior fangirls flipping cars and torching buses? (just before [or was it after?] Savior vs forGG game 2)
Jaedong vs Jangbi (gomtv) match, where Jaedong just owned Jangbi. Tasteless: "he(Jaedong) will own you blind-folded", "he(Jaedong) will own you without a monitor". The very start of 2nd game between Jaedong vs Jangbi; Tasteless: "We've already got Zerg music playing in the background, this is not a good sign for Jangbi".
"Because the drone count is very low... so low Lomo... how Low mo' can you go?
Btw someone should make one of those remixes of Tasteless commentating at the end of game one Odin vs Lomo. The songs or w/e, it sounded kinda like Tasteless was rapping (what some guy commented)

girls/women in korea are still pretty bound by traditional views on women and they should be at home making homework or something and not being at COEX mall or other venue (according to parents) thats a reason why they hide their face
korean guys are generally more open when the camera sees them in matches and display their sign/cheerful and look happy.
its a mans world i guess but its not like women are really opressed but u know
that being said tasteless seems like a loveable guy and is good caster

I used to be a Tasteless hater: i had the feeling that the guy did'nt know what he was talking about... calling vultures "bikes" and making predictions about how the game might turn after 20 seconds of play ("We might see some arbiter recall..."). I also had a problem with listening to English casting since it did'nt sound "natural" as if it was in korean (which I don't speak or understand).
Now, I fully appreciate your sense of humour and also believe you improved a lot at commentating... You even made me laugh a few times! Carry on with your good job Tasteless!

At some point the video cuts to a random Korean guy eating a cookie or something, and then he starts to blush and has this terrible look of embarassment and shame and hangs his neck. "Uhoh. Busted."
When Child's zergling rush comes and LuCifer flawlessly defends with his zealots, retreating as they reach low HP and covering their retreat with probes, "LuCifer, man. Selling his soul to the devil... just so he can micro better."
As a zergling is hidden in Child's mineral line, "Look at this ling pretending to be a drone. But you will never be a drone, zergling. You are cursed."

NOTE: this is a double post. I put one in the Tournement section, as I was ignorant to this thread. Sorry ^.^ y
In Gomtv season 1 he was rocking, funny and a true inspiration to us all to crack people up. Now in season 2 he is just lame, boring and rarly screams and makes jokes apart from the "Hide faces" - Sems susie is draging him down to a more boring commentator :/ Season 2 - So far is just boring now atleast on the commentating and i think Tasteless should teach Susie some Starcraft sens and let her be more involved instead of saying "Ooh, gg, why? (question that dont makes any sens, facts and lame stuff" Get her to be baller to please! It's getting more and more annoying to hear her dumb questions ( for a Starcraft player ) not a watcher i suppose. Bring someone else in to the seat next to the former king of Starcraft commentating or atleast bring him back do something to change this slump of boringness! - PLEASE!

everything with the pandabear guy are just the BEST. Example: JULY YOUR MURDERER! ;o and well. Tasteless is awsome I got many quotes that I like. "Drone! your career as a hatchery has ENDED" ) but pandabearguy FTW!!!
Plus, yes he where AWSOME first season but still as good as then this season now I think. It can be that susie is taking some time too. But that shouldn't be a problem. He's as funny as always.

- Bashing on high level here. Feedback for sure.
First season, IMO, was horrible. He tries so hard to play up every match, and made so many mistakes, that I cringed quite a bit listening to his casts. I was remember watching games with A-class player vs. Scrub, and he would talk about them being both pretty good... I mean, I know he wants ratings, but sometimes you got to call a spade a spade.
This season he's much more settled. But I do agree that he needs to teach Susie more about SC. At least allow Susie to do some play-by-play and he can color commentate and talk about serious stuff.

Well i'm not a pro or even a decent Starcraft player but the Susie issue needs to be fixed quite fast, i dont think Gom in general wants a Co commentator to not know what shes talking about in general. Shes doing a great job with the facts and statistics but nothing more. Tastless and Susie is Commentating Starcraft on the absolute top level and i don't mind if Tasteless is more settled but he can atleast make it more interesting to listen and watch with sound for sure. But i stand for my word but the fact that i started playing around the time Gom season 1 started it was all new and cool about Starcraft so it can involve in that i think season 1 was so much better because i wasn't so involved in the game yet.
i like nick and susie together, but i think a lot of the randomness/hilarity of previous tasteless stuff was probably a result of being alone and having no one to talk to and had to fill some dead air time
I think it's nice to have Suzie there to toss out questions for Nick to answer. There's a lot of casual players who watch and don't know the game as well as the average person here, and the "stupid" questions she asks are what they want to know. Nick handles the strategic insight (Unless Zerg is involved :> ) , and Suzie provides topics to talk about - it's a good dynamic.
I think Susie is definitely good for the Gom Classic. Last season, it got awkward a lot, even during the grand finals, since Tasteless was by himself. I also think it's good for more casual watchers. I would love to have Artosis in there as well, though. The clips I saw of WWI with them co-casting was great...similar to the Koreans in their in-depth analysis.
I do agree that his energy level has leveled out a bit, and he's not cracking as many jokes, and that his style of casting has lost a lot of his flair/attitude/pizazz(if you will) that he had a year or two ago, but still...he's definitely one of the best English commentators out there.
The best thing, though, is that he's always excited for the games. Even though he may not be making jokes, his casting is always energetic, and he's always very into the game. I think that's most important, and in that regard, he's always on the money.
There was a quote, earlier this season when the new maps were first being introduced...when they spotted the panda bear guy for the first time on Destination, both Susie and Tasteless were like, "omg wow look the panda bear guy is on this map too!!"
Nick: "dude I had no idea, that's awesome!" Susie: "Aw, I think he missed you..." Nick: "Yeah, well I missed him." in a definitive tone.
Don't remember what game, but JD played Zerg and mass hydras. Pandbearguy walks into the action and tasteless says: "And there's pandbearguy, he's a jaedong fan himself" I lol'd for minutes.
Also when another neutral unit got blocked by like 3-4 cannons warping: "And this guy wants to be a cannon so bad"
Tasteless pwns
edit: oh they're all in vid 3. soooo fucking funny
"And NO, looks like hes going to PUSH RIGHT NOW, BRINGING THE SCV"S ALONG TO HIDE THE FACT THAT HE DOESN"T HAVE ALOT OF SUPPORT FOR THE TANKS!!!"," o wait, im a noob man. hes just expanding" "insert tasteless girl giggle"
i also liked the switzerland pandabear guy quote. forget which game but it was a tvt with flash lol http://www.gomtv.net/videos/80
Tasteless mentioned a few days ago that he wanted to ask Kespa to change the Ursadon to Pandabear guy, but gave up because the observer never clicks on PBG. Well, perhaps if he tells them the whole PBG story, maybe it really gets renamed and then there would be a reason for the obz to click on it. Also, it might be a funny story for the Korean audience which haven't heard of our most famous critter.
For those of you who don't know where I'm coming from - let me just reiterate that I am in no way shape or form nearly as good as Nick and I have never claimed to be so. My job is to just be able to give his voice a rest for what is important and to help him fill dead air space. Please don't tell me how to do my job because from the job description, I'm doing alright. I'm still learning each week, but what Nick knows in 8 years of playing SC, I'm not gonna be able to learn in just a few weeks. And don't tell me that I should watch more games and study it more because I also have a full time job aside from GOM. So, for a girl who is a casual player who also works 7 days a week, all I can give you is my 100% effort each week (and player stats and facts that I research when I have any free time).
Its actually really fun when you get to translate what the players names are or how they got their nicknames, especially with "monkey", haha. I'm not really sure about Nick's Korean but translating and adding fun stuff whenever you can is a good job.

You also seem to be really enjoying yourself, and THAT'S entertaining.

You dont have to defend yourself against those idiots, we love you and your work susie.
I think you do a pretty good job at casting since you're only pretty new to it, I just feel sorry for you and nick every week when you are like "we are starting..................... now! Oh, not now."*cut off*
What Susie said is very true. Susie and Nick are a great duo - Nick gives you the tactics, strategies etc, and Susie brings up many interesting facts and stories about players which you had little-to no chance of knowing. I like their informal way of commentating, very relaxed and cool.
Susie, please tell Nick to make effort for renaming the ursadon to pandabear guy. And you also might explain your reaver fetish to us. >.<

Hey come on, I love reaver plays too, the poping of scvs/probes/drones are just ecstatic and it really feels great when you see those scarabs rape shit all over the place. Watch IntoTheRainBOw highlights, and you will feel how good we feel when we see things pop because of scarabs.
Maybe in one of your games, you will just feel the ecstatic feeling people get from watching reavers destroy

I think its just her version of when Korean commentators go "YYYAAA!!!!" and all those yells. Haha.
I'm shocked that no one has posted this yet... so I'm using my first post here on TL to correct a glaring oversight:
*ahem*
"You'se a fine little Terran, won't you back that tank up!"
this was followed by two other mini-raps later on in that evening's games, I'll try to get them all later.
Nothing entertains me quite like those Tasteless highlight videos, so I'm going to do my part and record the funny things Tasteless says in the VODs I watch, thus:
Tosky vs Goojila g1: "Look at those teeth... it could bite a nerd's face right off. We may see him do something of the sort here to Kal."
"Kal is 'knife' in Korean, he actually carries one right underneath that jacket so he can shank a nerd if he gets too close." -Nick "I don't know about that..." -Susie
the best part of this is that it's quickly followed by...
"He's known for his high templar hit and run kind of moves where he just brings in one guy, takes out that knife of his, stabs 'em--" -Susie "Starts shankin' nerds all over the place!" -Nick
"That's what Tasteless would do. Make a bracelet--WWTD?"
"Boom. Kal. He stabs nerds. 'Cuz that's what his name means--knife. It's funny, it's not just like a random statement I'm making. In case you just joined us."
Game starts. Observer screen appears. Music begins, and Nick starts speaking:
"..Some girl running in here and she just totally fell over and tripped trying to get back here to see this game. I love my job, I really do. I am a happy man OH MY GOD BackHo is going to do a proxy--"
Later... "You might have thought I was sitting on a toilet, I am not, I actually have pants on right now, it's just-- it's not easy being a caster! It's not." -Nick "Because you have to wear pants?" -Susie, skeptically "Yeah, I know. It's tough. The things-- the oppression, the oppression, that casters have to feel..." -Nick
So, if I keep doing this, is someone going to collect the clips and make videos? ; )
On December 03 2008 03:22 Delerium wrote: Oh man, I don't know what game this is in, but it's worth posting. From the same day of broadcasts as my posts above:
"Hey, Susie, what do you call a whole bunch of Scourge making love at once?" -N "..?" -S "A Sc-orgy!" -N
Hahaha, aye, that was brilliant. He sounded so proud of himself when he said it too.
Season 1 Gomtv with a single caster, there was alot of void especially during early games as theres no question and answers interaction. I find it abit boring.
However during Season 2 I find it very fun and exciting because of the introduction of Susie. This way, there is an interaction between two people with two different levels of experience filled with questions and answers just like Newton 2nd law. Also, he have someone to joke with instead of laughing himself after the joke.
Just like during this year's wcg, Tasteless and David(?) Lee also both have two different experience which Nick can ask about the strategy, the enviroment as a couch etc. It's always interaction. Try compare the korean commentators if it's only a single caster, it will be dull and boring.
On topic, I find this quite funny for me, Susie: ? What just happend? Tasteless: It seems 1 of the egg has just been aborted. Susie: Aw thats sad...
More on the off-topic topic; since I've been posting Tasteless quotes that include Susie Kim, I'm going to take a moment to weigh in on the topic of Susie & Nick casting together. I've wanted to make a post like this for a long time. People's offensive attitudes towards Susie really rub me the wrong way. I've written quite a few anonymous comments on GOM TV's site in response to rude users who suggest that Susie be "fired", tell her to "stop talking," etc.
These people have absolutely no hindsight. Nick struggled to fill dead air during the GSI and classic season 1. It was painful to watch and listen to, not because he did a bad job, but because he was trying to do a job that, on the Korean side, is performed by three people, and he did it all without being able to translate anything. It was painful because you felt bad for him, because you were watching someone struggle to do the impossible. With all the obstacles Nick had, he still did a great job and got me hooked on Tasteless.
That said, I was overjoyed the first time I saw Susie sitting next to Nick, and not just because she's a good-looking twenty-something like me ; ) "At long last," I said to myself, "someone is on the international broadcast who can tell us what the Korean signs in the audience mean!" She is doing exactly what she was asked to do, which is support and flesh out Nick's commentating.
In my opinion, she goes above and beyond. She gets the juicy gossip that makes sports drama so interesting. It's always better watching a competition if you know the competitors have a history with/against each other. For a casual viewer like me, it injects excitement into games that otherwise I wouldn't even bother watching.
It doesn't hurt that she is nice to look at, either. Seriously. Nick is a good-looking guy, and I don't mind staring into his French mug for a while, but there's something to be said for gender diversity, especially in television. I can listen to Nick drone on in a goofy way for a long time, but breaking it up with a female voice really lends the show some pleasant variety.
And, as has already been stated repeatedly by others, one broadcaster talking to himself is not good television. Add a second person so they can interact, and then you're getting somewhere. The Koreans always have three (and half the time, the lead commentator is a good-looking Korean woman--just like Susie).
As an apology for this rant, I'll leave you with another game's worth of quotes:
Tossgirl v Modern g1
"I do want to apologize, I do have a little bit of a cold, I have a little tickle in my throat, but... I have not talked all day up until this moment, to save my voice." -Nick "..And that, I will tell you, is pretty difficult for Nick to do, as he does like to speak--" -Susie "--I am very good at talking." -Nick
And here's a great series: "I cannot believe Modern is still on the Mutalisk tech. He does have a lot of Mutas, though!" followed by: "More Mutas! My god, he's still making Mutalisks! I feel like I'm in a time warp where the teching patterns never progress." Later.. "Look! He did something besides make Mutalisks!"
After, inevitably, the stack of Mutalisks eats Tossgirl's irradiate and Modern, predictably, does not separate them in time... "I hope those Mutalisks have insurance. ... I give this game maybe one or two more minutes."

Tasteless's comments are what got me into SC again as well, the BWWI over a year ago made me see the light and play this game again. Without it I wouldn't have bothered to find TL or follow pro-gaming. And lilsusie really is a nice addition, extra info, interviews, translations and this way there are no more small gaps in the cast. <3
Btw tx Delerium, although I've seen every single game I easily forget these small gems even though they make me rofl while watching. :D
I don't even need to say anything. Just click and watch the first 30 seconds, you will fall out of your chair laughing: http://www.gomtv.net/videos/511
(Referring to SlayerS_`BoxeR`: ) "If you're not familiar with him, you should probably slap yourself in the face..."
(Referring to Tempest walking out into fog machine and lights: ) "He's so hot there is literally steam emitting from his body. What a baller."
(Referring to Tempest: ) "He already knocked out Jaedong, I mean -- I'm sure he drank a lot of Soju after that happened -- if he knocks out Pretty it's just another notch under the belt." -N "That would be a .. huge.. notch.. under his.. belt." -S (she seems to realize while speaking that the idiom Nick used is actually supposed to be "a notch in one's belt") "A huge notch! He might need to get a new belt after that!" -N
It's worth adding, at this point, that the lead-in flavor text for the match-up is: "When TemPest is present, things may not stay Pretty." har de har har.
"Pretty in the green. Or teal. Depending on whether or not you use the Crayola colors." -N "*scoffing* Teal. It's mint-green. I'm telling you." -S "I'm- I'm manly, so I normally just say green or something. ..... Did you know Crayola actually invents colors, all the time? But we're not gonna do that here.

^ ok, I don't know what that was about, but here I am after sleeping with more quotes.
Tempest vs free g2
Discussing fans sitting on the same side as their favorite player's booth... "That's actually true at all Korean tournaments, they all show up and sit on one side, uh, the side of the player that they're on. Unless you're me, I usually get really drunk and go to the other side and try to start fist-fights, but I mean that's just how I roll." <-rofl
I'll explain this next one, but you should really watch the VOD and watch this particular one, because it's much funnier if you see it (VOD here: http://www.gomtv.net/videos/512 ) In the early minutes of the game, two dragoons meet and begin attacking each other, but the timing of their attacks is such that it looks like there's one energy ball flying back and forth between them.
Susie comments... "It's like they're playing tennis!" -S "Yeah... except *dramatic* they're trying to kill each other!" -N "The Volley of Death! " -S
"You can tell it's Tempest's shuttle because it has a pair of balls hanging from it, flapping in the wind because it has the speed upgrade." ~Tasteless
"That's the dragoon AI for you. Dragoons are not smart. They did not grow up to be doctors and lawyers... and Starcraft shoutcasters. *laughs at own joke*" ~Tasteless "I see what you did there." ~Susie
"I can't believe I have antlers on and I'm screaming like a lunatic right now..." -Nick (if you don't understand this quote, you didn't follow my directions earlier on this page)
(Discussing the next set...) "You know what his [Mind's] nickname is?" -Susie "What? Actually I don't know what his nickname is.." -Nick "'The Poison Snake Terran'." -Susie "'The Poisonous Snake Terran'!? Oh my god!! Open up your Christmas box and there's a poisonous snake inside it's Mind... bites you in the face..."
(After their Christmas attire costume swap...) "...Will you stop playing with that hat?!" -Susie "No, I like it, it's like I have long hair now, I can pretend I'm a girl." -Nick "With a little reindeer-bear on your head!?" -Susie "Yeah, there's a little bear, there's a little Panda Bear Guy." -Nick "It's Panda Bear Guy's friend the.. Santa.. Bear Guy." -Susie
(Talking about Kal being tall) Nick: "He is, though, seriously--he's really tall. And YOU are actually very short, so that must have been a very tough interview. I'm sorry, it's true-- you want to know how short Susie is? I am sitting in a chair very low to the ground, and she is standing on a stool!" Susie: *protesting and laughing* "Don't tell anyone that!" *to the camera* "I'm actuwy an elf!"
As Kal thoughtlessly walks between them and the camera... "...and he has a very good sense he's not doing the wrong strategies-- Kal just walked in front of our camera." -N "Was that Kal?" -S "That was Kal!" -N "Maybe he has to.. go to the bathroom or something." -S "Maybe. Sometimes you gotta go.. it's a Protoss versus Terran, it could be a very long time.. We don't let the players wear diapers!" "*deadpan* We got rid of that last season. We had a big issue with that." -S "Yeah, last season, yeah! Disqualification, players would hide the replays in the diapers, they would get leaked, it was.. ffff.." -N in unison: "..It was bad!"

"The Dark Horse is going to be turning to glue if he doesn't win this next game up here.." ~Tasteless
(referring to Jangbi's shuttle harass phase) Daniel Lee: "He is relying on his own readiness, not relying .. on the opponent.. not.. approaching him. Wasn't that profound, Nick?" Nick: "You just blew my mind." Daniel Lee: That was Sun-Tzu, by the way." Nick: "I just had a brain orgasm there."
Daniel Lee: "Time for him to get a hamburger." Nick: "It's hamburger time!" Daniel Lee: "Super-size it!"

All three of them would be perfect, I think Susie really adds a lot to the commentary despite not having deep knowledge like Daniel and Nick do.
Daniel Lee: "By the way, Nick, did I tell you how good-looking and such a great caster you are?" Nick: "Thank you, thank you, Daniel" Daniel Lee: "Did I tell you that, Nick?" Nick: "Well you know I really appreciate it" Daniel Lee: "I mean I, I-- study you, man, yeah, I studied you, before I came here" Nick: "Daniel, look..."

Nick: "Alright alright, here's the rest *gives him more money*"
game start-o! "Ok, here's Stork at the top, excuse me, um, BackHo at the right, and the guy who yelled 'Starcraft!!1`' somewhere in the audience, Daniel Lee in the back doing an interview, Tasteless in the uh, the GOMtv chair, casting the game. We know where everybody is now. As proof, there is Stork." ~Tasteless

During intro, talking about how cold it is in Korea 'right now'... "But yeah, man, it was like Planet Hoth over in this corner, I had to use my lightsaber to cut a Panda Bear Guy open and crawl inside of him just so I could survive after the games, it was that cold!" ~Tasteless, Star Wars mode

Fun fact: For those people who think Susie sucks at Starcraft, I just listened to her correctly assess that BeSt needed more gateways to spend his resources on, at a moment in which his gathered, un-spent resources were displayed to be very high
New Tasteless rap! "Reaver drop, reaver drop! Comin' to your base, make your workers go 'POP!' Not that time, though."
Bathroom jokes! "After game two we always allow for a bathroom break, but sometimes, you know, we let them go anyways, if their bladders are really hurting." -N (can't keep a straight face) "They actually have this bin in their booths.. they just have to empty it every once in a while" -S "Don't say that.. somebody's gonna think that's true.. they'd be like 'Hardcore!' He's like peeing in a cup and microing a reaver drop he's like 'Awhhh.. this is so hard!!' " -N "Wow. Bathroom jokes." -S
VOD is worth it to hear Tasteless and Susie's nerd-mocking voices that comes right after this exchange ^

I would go all off-topic on you and rant and rave to the effect of "Screw you, Susie is awesome", but ironically, the English-language GOMtv feedback e-mail is administrated by none other than... Susie herself. Owned.
As tanks siege a pylon wall... "Oh man, if he takes out that pylon, oh man, these vultures are going to be so happy, they're gonna have big banana smiles on their faces" -Nick
Best's vespene gas amount... "He's really low, he's getting those Arbiters.. those things are expensive! You don't just get those things at Wal-mart, okay? I mean that's like a 'Nordstrom' unit" -Nick
"Awrh, I gotta sit up straight, my back just turns into a cashew when I watch these games, I just curl up into a fetal position" ~Tasteless
As Terran buildings land.. Nick: "As you can see the floor is pretty dusty, a lot of dust gets emitted whenever those things land.. Yeah, you don't have time to clean in the World of Starcraft." Susie: "..Is that why your room's so messy?" Nick: "Yeah, it is, actually. I'm hardcore, man.. I roll out of bed and just go right to the computer & start owning nerds."
On Flash - Susie: "He doesn't look too happy about his win, there..." Nick: "He's angry, he's an angry nerd-slayer."
As Susie visibly steps out of frame.. "You're probably wondering, Susie just upgraded Cloak, she's gone.." ~Tasteless
I can't really transcribe this first quote, you have to hear it. Check the first few minutes of the VOD for "Hey guys, get me some minerals, wink wink!" [The person posting above me did a pretty good job, but it's worth it to hear the audio]
Nick: "I had a nickname back when I played in the 'States ! Did you know that?" Susie: "No, I didn't!" Nick: "I was the 'Chainsaw Protoss'! What a baller scary name that is! I would show up to Lans wearing another nerd's face, running around with a gas-powered chainsaw *awrhawrh* I was terrifying." Susie: "Wow." Nick: "Then I'd plug my keyboard and mouse in and win." Susie: "Because you've killed your opponent, is that why?" Nick: "Yeah. I'm that good. They just sit there they don't even move their SCVs because they got all chopped up."
Reading a Korean sign.. Susie: "It said ' "Bonjwa" Yong Ho, go and capture all six [Protoss] Dragons.' " Nick: "Gotta catch 'em all." Susie: "...I think he's too young to remember Pokèmon to be honest" Nick: "Wow, that just blew my mind, that really says how young he is"
Wow, I'm not even halfway through this game, and I recommend it... not for the commentary, but for the strategic mind-game. One player attempts to trick the other, I won't say who.....
game end-o pretty much on the same note as game start-o~ *Susie winks at the camera* (watch the VOD to see why)
Worth it for a very subtle, almost inaudible whimper Susie makes when Flash chases away Bisu's shuttle (as if thinking "You mean I don't get to see Reaver harassment?? but it's so sexy :{ ")
And for this exchange: Nick: "Hop on the forums, man, you can be like 'I can't believe Bisu just ran into that guy's base' 'O M G I KNOW!'" Susie: "LAWL I KNOW"
and lastly, for "The Panda Bear Guy is not a Detector."
Addendum: "Where are you gonna go, SCVs!? 'No! We thought we were safe, but now it's a prisooonnnn!!' " <- e:f;b by GCQ above
p.s. "Download the GOM player and try it, I use it to watch all of my movies and porn, everything!"

(Talking about how cold it was outside the other night when Nick couldn't get a taxi cab..) S: "Oh, was that when you had that hot date?" N: "Ahh that date was good. That was GG."
"I don't even think the Care-Bears care about that drop back there, this game is over" ~tasteless
(Talking about Nick's sore throat..) S: "What did that girl give you on Friday!?" N: "Only love! .... Actually don't joke about that I just remembered she's watching the cast" S: "Oh--!"

Hahaha wow... I won't even try to transcribe the first few minutes the of Skyhigh v Bisu g1 intro, but watch it, especially if you're a fan of Daniel Lee.
p.s. Does this mean Susie won't co-commentate anymore? I loved her gossip (and her personality, voice, and looks) so much, it made watching much more fun for a casual viewer like me : (
Talking about Bisu... Nick: "And also, you know, after his Starcraft career ends, he wants to become a competitive figure skater. Did you know that?" Daniel: *sounding genuinely surprised* "No, I did not know that, Nick!" Nick: "Actually, I lied, I don't know why I said that."
I missed this one, but some people in the comments noticed that when Super Daniel Man arrived on the scene, he asked Tasteless, "hows my favorite white boy doin?"

I nearly shat myself when I saw this on the stream.
I'm losing my motivation to do this now that Susie isn't commentating anymore... I'll probably just occasionally go back and find the nuggets from Tasteless's solo days at Gomtv.
However, I couldn't pass up pointing out that the splash screen on Skyhigh v Bisu g3 listed the map as "Clolseum2" :^D
Daniel Lee, on going fishing over Chinese New Year DL: "I don't eat the fish" NP: "You just catch them and then you let them go?" DL: "Yeah I just want the fish to be late for something"

I really didn't find this funny as DL stole the joke from Mitch Hedburg.
"You know when they have a fishing show on TV? They catch the fish and then let it go. They don't want to eat the fish, they just want to make it late for something."
Here's some other funny ones:
"A severed foot is the ultimate stocking stuffer. "
"Dogs are forever in the push up postion. "
"I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it."
"Every time I go and shave, I assume there's someone else on the planet shaving. So I say, 'I'm gonna go shave, too.' "
"I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit. "
^ - I'm actually a huge fan of Mitch Hedberg also but something tells me Daniel Lee probably didn't steal that joke from an American comedian who died 4 years ago... I think his sense of humor is odd enough for him to have thought of it himself. Plus Mitch's jokes never fail to make me laugh even after the first time hearing them so it wasn't that much of a buzzkill to see Daniel Lee use it as well.

Nice compilation of Mitch jokes though.
He probably heard it somewhere before but I don't think he sat there listening to stand up comedians with a diabolical look on his face scribbling down jokes onto a notepad
Tasteless : "There's Jaedong, we saw a reflection of him before... Imagine if there were 2 Jaedongs man... Jaedong clones, man... We could make them battle." ... later:"I wouldn't mind 2 Tasteless's"
Super Daniel Man : " I would hate another Super Daniel Man. That means we are gonna have to fight to the death. I'll be killing myself. That's suicide."
I really LOL'd, ----- check out gomTV Season 3 Intel Classic, already some popular known players losing to less known ones and very exciting matches !!!
yes, although to be fair, there aren't that many other people who have been able to start on their own, and then rise to the top like you've had to if you've wanted to be successful. The only other two that come to mind are klaz and diggity, but then they "went over to the dark side" and went to sc2gg
*drama insures*.
tasteless definitely puts his own flair to his casting, and it shows in this quote thread.

Tasteless' casts are the only English commentaries I like to watch because he's that damn funny. Oh, and he has a sexy voice too.
tasteless: Well, HoeJJa is that good. superdanielman: Well he brought the heat today, he is in the zone. tasteless: He brought the heat, it's a good thing I brought a stick of deodorant, because he brought the heat.

As stupid as this comment might be, Jason Lee is probably the best 'Caster'. He has the perfect voice and has a minimum amount of um's and er's, he's also a professional in casting other sports such as baseball and football. Tasteless doesn't seem to fit as a play by play/color guy. If GOM picked up Jason Lee to do the play-by-play commentary and made Tasteless and SDM Color Commentators (해설's), the commentary would be so much better.

Maybe in Korean, in english his accent is a little to strong. I really like hearing him but call him the best caster is a little much.
And yes.. The "pulled out" and so on phrases are used to much, as is/was sun tzu...
This Tasteless-quote by itself is hilarious enough, but Daniel makes it even more funny by overhearing it at first and then stopping dead in the tracks:
On May 27 2009 22:47 ret wrote: anyone else finds words like 'penetrate' 'potent' pulling out' being used by daniel lee cosntantly rather awkward?
I think potent is fine, but the penetrate and pulling out seem weird. The first time it happened, fine, but Tasteless must have told him about it since then.
Season 3 Ro of 16 just started ! I don't remember the exact quote but the cast started... "Baby is 15, Skyhigh is 18. One of them can see R rated movies so maybe that will fill Baby's anger" go watch now !
"someone might wanna call the police for rape" GOMTV season 2 special match "i can drink 1.5 liters of water in two starcraft games" skyhigh vs baby match 2
@ all the people complaining about SuperDanielMan's vocabulary:
SDM has specifically addressed this in some cast in season 3 (can't recall specifically when); he stated that the terms he uses such as "penetrate" and "pull out" are commonly used in the military, and that since Starcraft is a military strategy game, it is appropriate usage. He also stated that those people that think its weird or something should get their mind out of the gutter and suggested that they may not be as mature as they could be.
Personally I have never known them to be used that much, but then I was never in the military XD I found SDM's usage awkward first, yes, but after such repetition it doesn't bother me anymore.
LOL Valor tournament Idra vs. Fenix Game 2 on Destination. Idra goes for his 3rd expo across the bridge, but Fenix denies it by sitting some dragoons there, and Idra is forced to stop the maynarding SCVs across the bridge, next to the panda bear guy.
"There's the panda bear guy with a bunch of SCVs - it's like a pandabear guy petting zoo."
