Please talk about the games in this thread. If you feel the desire to rage about something, bottle it up inside you and lash out elsewhere. Thanks! |

I think GOM is actually switching it out to test it. That haven't been hosting SC tournaments for international fans for long afterall.

Its not her accent, its not that she is nervous. Its the fact the she made wrong analysis which is annoying for me. If you can only do a caster job, stay a caster, don't try to be smart and start doing analysis, leave it to Tasteless.

Agreed 100%, it makes for a much more relaxed interview.

HuK is so baller! But John is as well! John really felt like he loosened up and it seemed very enjoyable to watch :D he should defitenely do more interviews :$ I knew HuK was short but John is just huge xD

So why isn't Artosis here? Sure we get a hot chick, but stil ...

Good stuff overall. I wouldn't be as bold to say that 95% of this thread wouldn't be able to beat a gold/plat level player.. Rotterdam said on another thread that she was easily 3k masters level, but ok she is a female so you can just make a blanket judgement. Unless you're talking about HuK? Lol
I think that's Linda ''Pichachu''.

Baller matches from HuK. Eagerly awaiting a mothership though (and pillow). Also, good work on the casting by Kelly; interesting to see how she goes paired up with Artosis, but from today's matches you can certainly tell that the banter between her and Tasteless is at least natural and not forced or anything like that, good chemisty etc etc. Welcome back GSL!

did anyone else think that huk nor his opponent played very well today?

I think GOM is actually switching it out to test it. That haven't been hosting SC tournaments for international fans for long afterall. Actually, GOM has been having English streams of their GOM Classic Brood War tournaments for several years now, all of them casted by Tasteless and an Asian co-caster (either lilsusie or SuperDanielMans). However, neither co-caster has been too popular with audiences.
Unfortunately, Artosis has been their best decision of regular co-caster for Tasteless thus far.

Kelly did a pretty good job with the replacement casting. She explained basics about the game too often, but I was pleasantly surprise with her jokes towards the end when she was acting more comfortable.
Huk is a awesome guy, good interview.
Not the most exciting start for code A, but I'm glad to see Huk's play is as sharp as his reputation suggests. This zerg Posh has definitely shown some skill. I think he could be taking expansions faster, but wow, amazing creep spread and he handled every attack that came at him super well.

Point is: They have to say the questions in English anyways, and to me it seems more ... fluent when they achieve that by letting two people interact with each other.
Additionally, I think Artosis does a great job on the interviews. And I'm sorry for it, but I can understand Artosis way better than John. Not to take anything away from his English, I probably don't sound any better, because it's not my motherlanguage either, but it sometimes makes it harder to understand. Not to mention John mumbles sometimes.
John is a great guy, but I'd rather Artosis asked the question.

They'll be switching between the two, and Tasteless/Artosis will be casting Code S together.

She tries to be cute and funny as well but her jokes fall flat and are cringe worthy. Calling hellions "Racing Cars", like come on!

The fundamental issue with Tastosis is that they both pretty much bring the same kind of humor/analysis and thus often end up repeating themselves ... Just count how many times they're saying "true true", "indeed indeed" "that's very true" in their cast because they've no idea of what to say since the other already said it...
