Watching "ASL English" afreeca stream / vod exclusively since they started as it currently fits my preferences best, but I can see myself bouncing back and forth, or even watching the same games multiple times on each option. In fact I recall watching both the Korean stream and the Tastosis stream during a previous ASL. | ||

Not because I find it much better, it's just out much faster and since I don't have an opinion on who's "best" I just whatever comes first. | ||

when i watch with my friends who know less about broodwar, i have to explain a lot more to them when we watch scan and nyoken. tastosis are better at explaining stuff to people who are unfamiliar. but we still choose to groupwatch nyoken and scan over tastosis. me and my friends don't really like how artosis and tasteless talk about so much negative shit about people or the game, or the ableist language. i dunno if they realize how that stuff impacts people but i also dont really care about explaining to folks that dont understand. | ||

I usually watch it a couple of days afterwards and like to read the last pages of the live thread afterwards. Pretty much the same, if I get to them before they're on StarCastTV's YouTube channel, then I'll watch in on afreecaTV but that doesn't happen too often. Also like to read the end of the LR thread after.

Interesting, I never thought about it, but for people with no knowledge of BW, Scan and Nyoken could be hard to follow immediately alright. I agree Tastosis are probably better at that aspect, though they reference SC2 a bit which I know almost nothing about! I think it's fantastic we have the options of both and I'm glad people enjoy both so we keep both. | ||

In terms of game knowledge they are definitely the best English commentators that we've ever had. They have also getting better and better. Mainly improving the entertainment side of things... | ||

Broodwar isn't as important a part of my life as it was 8-10 years ago so watching live is rarely an option, but it's still great to be able to catch up with all the vods at a time convenient for me. | ||

I wasn't looking to start an argument either, I was just curious as to what they were saying. My gut instinct when hearing about ableist language is that Tastosis may be saying "retarded" or "autistic" which I would have found very surprising, but hearing the terms "crazy" etc. certainly makes sense. | ||

No clue what they're saying yet but it's much nicer i mean while he streams sure. But i've almost NEVER found him to complain much during casts. Even for Mini vs Rush which involved multiple cross spawn nexus first he didn't try to detract from minis victories. | ||

On the other hand, Tasteless and Artosis are more fun sometimes. All four of them could do a joint collab and do live comment, like the guys from back2warcraft do (e.g. 2 or 3 of them could comment live, even up to 4 people). Anyway, it's very good we have live EN option as well. I would like to see this for KCM Race, Showmatches(Ultimate Battle) and ASTL. There is a solid non-korean watchers base that would love this. Again, back2warcraft is a good example on how coverage is done, they try to cover most important wc3 competitions, and they have more members and collaborators, relying a lot on donations. | ||

Tastosis have presentation value. They’re still the gold standard to just have on and I lean to them for finals. They’re great if I’m working and want something there while I work. Either way I enjoy both and it feels like a golden age for content. People should check out he staarcast grudge matches. Great players. | ||
