I mean, he lost a ton of stuff and replenished it fairly quickly from what I saw anyways. Since he had so many vikings i think ^^ | ||

I hate to even touch this debate, but it's just too easy to show that so many of your points are BS and really stretching the limits of reality.. 1st pt: Tasteless has to multitask on live TV, observing and commentating. Not easy by any measure. Oh, did you also ever hear of "Dyslexia"? . he has that too, k thxbye. 2nd pt: he doesn't "call viewers noobs", he merely makes statements directed towards the noobs that watch.. it's very important to make GSL as accessible as possible to new audiences, and yeah that requires rehashing things you and I have heard 20x before.. so what ? 3rd pt: he's probably ENCOURAGED to chug powerade on the air, as they are a sponsor and it is more effective marketing to see him drinking it rather than just have the bottle sitting next to his monitor all throughout the broadcast.. 4th pt: who says a bit of bias is a bad thing? this isn't a friggin CNN news program or a political show.. when you watch a yankees game on the Yes network, those announcers are lifelong Yanks fans.. And I'd probably rather somebody who takes a liking to players rather than treats them like numbers and sets of accomplishments.. get over it 5th pt: Fake Boxer is not inherently a defamation.. it's just a stone cold observation of the fact that he chose to use a well-known ID that belonged to someone else, and it's necessary to say something to distinguish them. 6th pt: OMG tasteless forgot / didn't know an important hotkey at one point? fire him on the spot! It's not like he was HDstarcraft, casting 15 games a week since Beta was released.. He was a broodwar caster until GSL started.. 7th pt: OMG he plugs his own clan like 4-5 times a season?!?! (depending on how far EGIdra makes it). You really are desperate for reasons to dislike this guy, aren't you... It's not like he's plugging EG's sponsors.. And yeah they plug HandsomeNerd because they can.. If the oversight allows it, then why not? There's nothing ethically wrong with that. Just because it wouldnt happen on a standard american news program or sports broadcast doesnt mean it's some insane morally wrong absurdity.. So what do we conclude from all this? (aside from the fact that your points are all flimsy and you're grasping at straws) Well sir, that it's bloody E-sports! not ESPN2 with a finicky production team all trying to please the bosses and move up the ladder. What a joke your post is, Toriko. Nice try son. Better luck with your 30th post than with your 15th. Not nitpicking at all. I'd say the one nitpicking is you. I said i like them, I just wish they were a bit more professional. 1- I can't remember which game they were casting, but Tasteless did gargle. Not drink it, GARGLE! It's entirely different. Even Artosis made a comment about that. 2- Someone said he called viewers newbs instead of noobs. fair enough my bad. 3- Also I know Tasteless has to multitask, and i said that it's understandable if he misses a few things. But as far as commentating goes, he hasn't said anything insightful as far as i can remember. Sure i haven't watched all the game, but i did watch a lot of them. If I'm wrong, fine whatever. Doesn't mean he shouldn't improve his knowledge about the game. 4- Everyone has different opinions on whether bias is good or bad. i personally thinks it's bad. Why are you getting so worked up? How many times have you heard Artosis make comments (directly or indirectly) about Terran being overpowered in season 1? What does he say about zerg now? nothing? just because he's a zerg player? 5- About fake boxer, just a personal opinion. Plus when i saw the interviews with Artosis telling him about foreigners wanting him to change his name to Foxer, I don't think he was too overjoyed about it, based on his facial expression. Again, just a personal opinion. You may interpret it differently, good for you. 6- Tasteless forgetting about a hotkey is a pretty big deal to me. He's being paid to do that! It showed that he hasn't done any effort to prepare for the job. 7- I did ask if he was allowed to plug EG and handsomenerds. If you knew how to read, you could just say "yes" and end it. I don't think i can take your comments very seriously. Anyways, just replying to your post to make my point clear: MY OPINION is that Tastosis could show more professionalism. That's all. This will be my last post about their commentating. You can have the last word. Enjoy! | ||

LoL, I just find this halarious.I know you're Amazing Tyler, but you should not be trash talking other players equally as good as you. Sure you can see flaws in his play, and I think he had like 80-90 harvesters too. He did end up making 10-11 ultras and 50 lings after he sacked his army with that large amount of minerals. I can't even go into much more detail since I may make a mistake, but I don't think you can call what he did playing like trash.Or am I missing your point? | ||

Or not... Oh lol now there's banshees out, didn't see that coming" (Game was on Xel'Naga, forgot the players) Being able to show what you are talking about is more useful than you may think. And if you compare Tasteless' observing to Season 1 ro64, you'll actually see how much better it got. And it's actually Artosis' job to provide tactical insights. Hooking up on the Korean observer would be terrible. It's like a tv movie: you use the camera as a supportive tool to tell your story. You dont tell the spectators what just happened on the screen... I enjoy watching GSL with Tasteless and Artosis. The only thing that sometimes annoys me is Tasteless constantly confirming Artosis insights ("No kiddin!", "Yeah, definitely") and repeting stuff that Artosis just pointed out. Sometimes I think he's kinda lost between the roles as the guy with the insights and the guy that talks about stuff going on while asking questions for further insight. I guess the commentating could be better if he would hold back with tactical insights when Artosis is obviously better at that. | ||

I guess Nestea played sloppy then. He did only win 2-1 and was in danger of being knocked out. A lot of pros dont seem to like nestea is there a particular reason other than him being trash? | ||

A lot of pros dont seem to like nestea is there a particular reason other than him being trash? People seem to have a strange definition of "trash". I would be extremely hesitant to apply the title of "trash" to anyone that QUALIFIES for the GSL, let alone someone that holds the goddamn title. Just because someone has a playstyle that doesn't appeal to you does not make them trash. NesTea has demonstrated that it works, and pretty damn well at that. He's not the Zergbong you remember. Are you going to win a GSL title, Tyler? | ||
