Both duos did a good job, just as expected..
My thoughts exactly, just rename it XX caster appreciation thread or something.

I don't know.. I'm not really obsessed with casters, I just appreciate that we get me amped about watching games I wouldn't normally watch. I play zerg, so I was never really interested in anything other than ZvX, but when a good casting duo gets me riled to watch a TvT or something and keep me interested, I want to commend them. I appreciate both casting duos, I was just wondering if there were people who liked the Day-Husky duo a bit more than the Tastosis duo, like myself. It's really just supposed to be a discussion of who you like and why. Threads are for discussions, right?
Day[9] works great with just about anyone, be it DjWheat, JP, Chill or Husky, who performed much better this weekend than I expected. No complaints here. Tastosis can be great fun when they joke around, but I seem to be oversaturated with them. They cast so much GSL that they can't keep up the constant hilarity from the beginning. It seems their enthusiasm has faded a bit, Tasteless especially looks (and sounds!) tired and burnt out.

Yes, plus add that the casting archon always wins these kinds of polls so the poll part is completely unnecessary

I think the real thing to take from this, instead of trying to make it a caster competition, is that Husky is finally being appreciated here on TL. Rewind a year ago and mentioning his name brought on tons of hate. Good to hear that not only has he improved, the community's perception of him reflects it.
I didn't want to make it a competition or anything, I just wanted to know who likes who and why =) I feel like a lot of starcraft 2 casters are really really talented and enjoyable to listen to, and yeah, I'm really happy the Husky's getting recognition for his epic improvement.
Husky + another caster = epic Alone he's ordinary, but he's the best at adding the excitement
Husky did well, and I agree, nice to see him being appreciated on TL. I really can't stand Day9 though, which is a shame since he casts so many damn foreign tournies.
Tastosis probably won't ever be topped for me. Mainly because Artosis is my favorite analyst, and he seems most comfortable with Tasteless (who happens to be the funniest caster)
Shame djWHEAT wasn't around, he's awesome. Pairs well with anyone.
