No. Game is just a pretty background of course. Just do what I do and mute the stream for the first 8 minutes and watch the production tab. ST_Legend is the only reason I can still watch GSL
I don't understand why people have to be spoonfed information that is already on the screen.
Well, it's not that hard to roughly follow the build-orders just by watching, but there are always small details in builds/mindgames when games are played at this high level. And that is something where casters can come in, because they should (given that it's their job) be able to explain those details. I don't follow the scene closely enough to know all the styles of the players and the meta-game developments in Korea.

This is just not true lol. You might be sick of him but he still knows a ton about RTS. It's just most of the time his focus is on colour or supporting artosis' commentary.
I wonder until when his fanboys will stick to this bullshit.
If you like his offtopic banter, then it's your choice and I have no problems with it. But stop pretending he's something he is absolutely NOT. He is terrible at saying anything SC2 related.
You should see him when he casts with someone else other than Artosis then. Tasteless' game knowledge really shines then.
I hope this is a joke. His casting at MLG was evidence of his lack of game knowledge.

Honestly he just said Tasteless knows a ton of RTS; and if you are trying to say he wasn't knowledgeable in BW, then you are simply wrong.
Tasteless might not be the most knowledgeable of all SC2 casters, but he knows when and where to focus and his commentary is (as we all know) more play-by-play with Artosis as the analysis support.

Like when DjWheat and Day[9] asked for post-game analysis to Tasteless and Artosis in the last MLG, but Artosis happened to not be there? Yeah I saw how that turned out... ROFL

You compare an event where he probably wasn't even watching the game.
Such amazing play by virus, picking up the medivac as soon as the hatch died, splitting in such a tiny window of time vs so many banelings, every terran that saw this knows that they would be dead and gone.
