It doesn't get much more biased than Tastosis when some players are inside the booth. However, it does not make the cast worse for me. Incontrol being somewhat biased is totally fine in my book. It's so slight that in fact I did not notice the bias until someone pointed it out. | ||

All of them have no relationship with tastess or artosis. BitByBit is that bad. Boxer and Nada are legendary in bw. All of those are Tastess and artosis's opinions. Unlike incontrol he got 4 teammates in nasl and im pretty sure 100% he isn't gonna say a bad thing about them. The way he praise alexav and rooting for him is clearly is showed in the casting is very irritating. | ||

AGHGHGH I breathed a sigh of relief at the fact that Nada managed to win that game. If dde won, it would have felt as if the world I was living in popped and life itself flipped upside down... | ||

On a completely separate note. Did anyone notice Inc spoiled the results of the Squirtle/Axslav game during the DDE/Nada match? | ||

I think it's maybe a likability factor we have here? Artosis had a huge amount of flak in early GSL seasons for his zerg bias, but he toned it down to a degree (and reversed it with being Protoss) but he became a much more likable kind of guy with some flaws as the seasons progressed. Incontrol I guess is a guy who some people love to hate, but I find his personality hilarious (and I hope he breaks down into more of that Rumble in the Bronze kind of caster). I don't think the (to quote a word of Gretorp), "synergy" is there between the casters though and it's not really anyone's fault. I think Incontrol needs a different caster to play off of. That being said, I definitely think people are biased themselves with how they are perceiving caster bias and really just finding things to complain about. | ||

I don't expect you to read all my posts, but I addressed the fact that other commentators are biased ALSO. I'm not clueless about this. You can be a good commentator and still be biased. You can be a great commentator and really likable, and your bias will become something the audience will enjoy (eg. BIT BY BIT or CLIIIIDE). Maybe you're biased about my bias about their bias. Your move. | ||

That aside, Artosis gets to have opinions and obviously root for specific players and turn a blind eye to their failures but iNc doesn't just because Artosis isn't on their team and iNc is? Huh? There's no real difference. Day9 always cheers on Dario when he comments him in live tournaments, for example, but no one ever hates on him. | ||

Incontrol just receives a ton of hate because he's made a lightning rod of himself by being so very active in the community by posting on TL and his role on State of the Game. The silent majority of us just appreciate all he does for the community, unfortunately he also has to deal with children screaming at him. Secretly, though, we all know Geoff loves to tell idiots to STFU and GTFO. | ||

I agree with the points you're making, but just pointing out that BBB never faced off against Artosis (unless it was an open qualifier, but I'm pretty sure Artosis only mentions Byun's DTs for that). | ||

I lost on metal b/c I didn't realize the map had close spawns enabled and was so confused when i didn't see him at the 2nd spot I scouted that I screwed up the build order really badly and got everything later than normal. Would it be possible for NASL to give the players some better and more clear-cut warning about the map spawns? I have seen it happen quite a bit in tournaments where a player loses because he doesn't realize that the map either has or does not have altered spawn locations. When you have 3-4 versions of the same map and players are going from one tournament to another, I can completely understand why this happens. Sure, you can argue that it is the player's responsibility to know the maps, but I think from the viewers perspective, it makes for a lousy match. No one wants to see a player get stomped because of something as simple as this. | ||

He was telling a story about how impressed he was when watching clide's screen and picked him to dominate in his ro64 match (clide got manhandled and lost 0-2) | ||

Ah. That's probably what I was confusing. Thanks, I'll edit my posts. | ||
