Rapid, can you turn up your mic volume or get mic closer to your mouth next time because sometimes it's impossible to hear you because of stupid loud music.

I think I can hear him fine, and the loud music is an essential part of Korean BW imo :p

Hey everybody, I just wanted to come say hi and thanks for making this thread. It's been incredible to get such positive feedback for casting broodwar and makes every day so enjoyable to be a part of.

Game knowledge is still something I'm definitely working on and to a large extent things are still pretty new as the top pro-Broodwar players return to their highest levels. Right now I'm watching a ton of Afreeca streams and trying to piece together what's going on but if you have any additional insight or things you'd like me to bring up on air feel free to let me know.

I still read almost every thread on TL and check /r/sc every day but if you'd like to get in touch or share feedback more easily feel free to send me a message on twitter!


Keep up the good spirit.

Rapid is already a hero for solo casting TvT bo5, anything extra is always welcome. And his chemistry with Artosis is really good, I hope Tasteless stays on vacation or whatever for this ASL

First the Focus Sash on day 1, now the Everstone Caterpie, just how big of a Pokenerd is he?

Could say his Cast-form is pretty heat atm

Edit: Mechdonalds... That's pretty filthy right there rofl

Rapid just said during Jaedong vs Mong game : "Artosis, tell me that Brood War is the best game in the world."

Rapid is very nice to listen to. I thoroughly enjoy his commentary. Only Tasteless could be better at this point, unfortunately for Rapid that's precisely who he's replacing.

Thank you for your commentary Rapid, it's legit as f

He is cracking the sickest jokes, I laughed at one for minutes, sadly I can't remember it now. But he's so refreshing, it's a joy to have him around.
I seriously don't understand Rapid haters. You are given free content wiht high quality video and fun for hours yet you still dare to complain and demand while having invested nothing. That's not how things should work, shame on haters.

Dear Rapid: great cast man, keep up the good work!

Dear Artosis: if you think that knowing the difference between a muta build and a 3 hatch spire for scourges on 1 gas, like a couple of users pointed out to you earlier in constructive criticism, makes those users 'BW Elitists' im honestly sorry for you. As a matter of fact every D user on ICCup knows the difference and can probably understand, why your comparisons bewteen roach pushes in Sc2 and different plays in Broodwar are inaccurate at best.

Also, use the reply function in the forum if you'd like to address those points, those guys would love to talk with you and perhaps have a way of answering when you generalize everybody who doesn't like your comparisons as BW Elitist.

Looking forward to see how you'll make more fun of us on that fine stream of yours.
Broodwar for life!

Huh I thought that was clearly a joke? I never had the feeling that he was angry at the guys in the forum or that he thought that he doesn't need to take the critique to heart?

Considering that Artosis has praised the TL.net forums multiple times over the last 5 broadcasts I think this is just a dumb thing to say.

Yeah, I also feel he had no bad intention when he said it.

A few things to point out:

1. When JD pushed Mongs natural on Benzene, he did so to bait out a scan. This delayed the Mong to clean out the two lurkers on the cliff shooting at the mineral line even more ( youtu.be/PpNtpuMTcPM?t=34m2s)

2. Again JD pushes into a bunker line. It doesn't matter that much for map control if JD has 8 lurkers in front of Mongs base or 4. However he reduced Mongs bio enough for some muta harass. The ultimate goal of JD however was to get defilers. A zerg should always trade as long as he has enough lurkers left to hold marine runbys or hold a slow pushing tanks until defilers arrive ( youtu.be/PpNtpuMTcPM?t=2h27m18s

3. I'm not sure whether it was to hype up things, but JD losing his mutas was by no means a game winning move by Mong. JD has his third mining gas for free for more than 3 minutes already. That's approx 1500 gas mined. Losing those mutas did not matter since JD was is so far ahead at this point already. ( youtu.be/PpNtpuMTcPM?t=2h30m43s)

4. The hold here was actually decent for JD, since Mong has no sizable force to quickly push JD left (what he has to do at this point to do enough damage until defilers are out). JD "losing" this fight did not matter since he had enough defense to hold any push + 5 lurkers in the back in case Mongs forces would actually survive enough to fast push the natural of JD. ( youtu.be/PpNtpuMTcPM?t=2h32m4s)

Especially from Artosis, I wished he focused more on the stages of the game. For a zerg, the most important stages of the game is to a) secure his third gas with mutas. JD did this with a fast lurker contain, which gave JD 4 minutes and b) delay terran push enough until defilers are out.

JD did a) with lurkers instead of mutas this time. JD did b) with those "bad engages he lost".

They focus too much on unimportant stuff (Mong losing 5 marines to lurkers randomly, who cares), and never focused on how far ahead JD was with 4 bases vs 2. The objective of JD was to deny terran the 2 bases on the left. Artosis never focused on that goal.
