First: I'm not one of the big critics of Artosis, considering that I've never watched BW in it's prime. So, many mistakes they do while commentating stay unnoticed by me.
What I mainly dislike about their cast is especially the many SC2 references ( even though it's a bit toned down compared to the first season of ASL). Some are fine, especially if they talk about Rain, Soulkey and other players who also became succesful in SC2.
Mostly when people say they dislike Artosis for his game knowledge I can't follow, because as said before I was never that big into broodwar until last year. But I can understand this. I think though, that we should cut Rapid some slack. Yes he followed BW once, but we don't know if he has ever since. Also he is not contracted to Afreeca to cast ASL. He is just subbing in for Tasteless. Artosis on the other hand should be better. Considering he was a pro for many years. I think this duo works well, but could work even better if Rapid had someone casting with him who has deep game knowledge, because he can easily do color commentary. That he knows the game at all and trivia/history about players became obvious the last broadcasts.

I think though that Tasteless will be more up to date with the meta and game than Artosis so I'm looking forward to their cast

I like your attitude. I don't know if Tasteless will be more up to date. I kind of doubt it. He was never the "deep knowledge" guy, neither in BW nor in SC2. His SC2 casts were all about passion and the chemistry with Artosis. He often got things wrong. So I expect him to do the same in BW, especially when he didn't play nor watch it for years. Maybe he will teach me a lesson though. If he does, I will be a happy man.
