God that was some of the most uninformed, terrible and useless commentary. While i applaud their efforts as a replacement, their game knowledge was so lacking for even basic units and their abilities that it was painful to listen to. Like the constant; "hes going to gg, its gonna be soon for a gg" etc etc was horrible and annoying. Tastosis commentary in English is one of the reasons I buy a ticket, as the Korean GSL commentators have nothing on Kim Carrier and the rest of OGN's commentary team for when I watch BW matches (happens much more often than SC2 matches due to downtime bertween seasons and lack of prelim vods in english)

Funny how the perspective of players get completely shaped by what Tasteless and Artosis say. They call this guy braindead and suddenly half the people here think they can do better then this guy (which is insane). | ||

However, since people who could have passed him have already lost (Clide is an example) and since Idra has won his Ro64... Idra will be one of if not the TOP wildcard Code-S player (unless he auto-qualifies by finishing Top 8 this season). CheckPrime is at the top spot right now for wildcards (RO16 twice). Itll either be him or IdrA that gets the top wildcard spot as only one of them can make the RO8 (they potentially face off in the RO16). | ||

For all we know the Korean commentators could be talking about how much they hate foreigners, and we would never know..... I can't comment on the other games, but I watched Ret's games on my way to work today and the Korean casters seemed to pretty much agree that his mid-late game is awesome. | ||

All 3 of them like Check are S class for 2011 GSL S code league. Yep. CheckPrime.WE, EGIdrA and oGsTheWinD clinched Code S before the tournament started based on who qualified. TSL_Clide and oGsHyperdub also clinched Code S on the first day when jookToJung lost. sanZenith, LeenockfOu, PoltPrime, and oGsMC will likely clinch Code S soon. | ||

I should have dug deeper, the information I was reading from TL was unclear, I was probably looking at the least helpful of the threads.

The double stalker after scouting gas/pool and with drone in sight? Ignoring/missing the hydra den? And the 6-gate response to a hydra/spine push and refusal to transition? I mean, he'd rock me, but he's still terrible in comparison. | ||

I'm getting kind of annoyed by this rhetoric now. Cyrano played decently and at the time Tasteless and Artosis recognized it. Now today they're basically calling him a bad player and everyone on the forum is talking about how badly he was crushed. Yeah, he lost. Leave it at that. | ||
