I liked and enjoyed this cast. It really looked unreal when you hear them casting this 18 year old game. Tasteless' passion was way more on this one compared to his casual regular SC2 cast. Artosis was also helping with his oldschool knowledge.
Also I'm glad this drama seized down. Both crew simultaneously casting this was best decision. I was really enjoying you both from at start of KSL1 - BD & XKCD 4ever! LFM of BW casted by Tastosis officially.

They did very well 
No complaints about the way a lot was explained for the benefit of SC2-ers.
|
the dream: BD & XKCD casting along with tastosis
|
Lol Tastelss giving a shoutout to MCALauncher and Iccup- awesome!
|
Will they recast the first semfinals match or just the remaining semis and the finals?

Well, only the 2nd semifinal and the finals.
the finals will be on 23rd , saturday, Bisu vs.zero or effort
(no spoiler in case you wanna watch the vod)
If the finals get a lot of viewers on the english stream, lot of Tastosis BW casts might be a thing

Man... i have missed this game so much... even in such a (comparatively) simple matchup as ZvZ...it was getting so complex and you could see/hear Artosis/Tasteless getting nostalgic and "OMG ITS JUST SO COMPLEX!" its amazing totally worth ditching work tomorrow for. :D

It's so surreal seeing people make a Broodwar cast accessible for SC2 viewers hahaha. Used to be the opposite.
I think I prefer it this way

Watching now, you can seriously tell Tasteless was having way more fun doing this compared to when he casts SC2. It's like watching a different person entirely.

He's casting the game he's playing, quite normal :D.

great Cast by Tastosis hands down. They identified their key role in this; making the game accessible to an audience that didnt grow up with it and that has a hard time identifying how this game works and how awesome it is.
The cast was informative too, i definitely didn't learn anything but it was very entertaining. Keep on going Tastosis, welcome home.

Certainly enjoyed the cast and I think it'y only right that they make sc2 references and comparisons for beginners.

Because I don't think bringing Tastosis to cast this will do a lot in the long run. Only by bringing the stream to twitch would the foreign BW scene grow imo. They should just let BD and amazingxkcd cast this on twitch instead of bringing Tastosis to afreeca.tv if they want more english viewers. Afreeca seems to be subsidizing the VNSL quite a bit, from providing venue and casters to the broadcasting infrastructure and marketing (heavily, all throughout the Afreeca sites), etc. Twitch may indeed bring more viewers, but Afreeca has set its sights on expanding outside Korea, i.e. as a direct competitor to Twitch, so I don't envision them supporting BW events/casts being simul-streamed on Twitch... Okay, thanks for the info. Just thought it might be possible, since the Afreeca GSL is also streamed on twitch.
Also very happy that this was actually possible, having it on twitch is a huge deal.

Oh man, I just feel so happy watching them cast Brood War.
It's so much more entertaining to watch them when I can relate to the excitement they're bringing.
Also I'm really glad they were in studio and the cast was properly produced. I was scared this was going to be something really low key. If new people are going to get interested in BW, they can't deal with buffering or audio clipping.
Annoyed I thought this was tomorrow, since I planned to watch live, but the VOD is alright and hopefully views there factor into investor's decisions too.

just watched the VOD. You can tell it's such a nostalgic trip for them casting BW again.

Thanks for the link! I was super sad I couldn't see it live.
Can't wait to watch it when I get home.

Haven't watched broodwar before and didn't watch much sc2 lately but man this cast was great for me to get a grasp for broodwar. It was really enjoyable and i gonna tune in this saturday for the finals.
very well, I was left!

Am hyped tho for Tasteless and Artosis return, lets hope they'll also cast some more tournaments.
Tho it kinda sucks that BisuDagger and xkcd are getting fucked a bit with this :/
I usually only watch the Korean stream but I think I'll tune into the English 1 stream for the finals, especially because Bisu will be absolutely slaying EffOrt in a vZ finals as always (30th of August did not happen) so BisuDagger will hopefully go nuts :D
