I have to say: Tasteless performance was the best of his career I think. Very, very impressive and professional. Something happened to cause this slight change of style? I mean, he is always good, but today (or yesterday, depends) he was a bit more analytical and insightful than usual.

I think he felt less pressure, and less need to be politically correct, since they are not the main stream. He always has that insight, it's just that he usually takes back seat for political correctness or Artosis.

Fuck you Zealously! For the fuck you give to those players.

OGN's production of this tournament has been absolutely diabolical in most respects. Having subscribed, the VOD-viewing experience has been incredibly poor compared to what I've come to expect from WCS up to this point. Mislabelled VODs causing me to look elsewhere for the "real" ones resulting in me coming across spoilers, no availability of main stream final VODs (yet) and an almost unbelievably poor second stream cast from Day 9 and Apollo as others have said.

Add to that the almost always missing overlays during the Round of 16, confusing overlays in the final particularly, and English language casters having to guess when they should be able to access information properly by observing. It simply wasn't good enough, and I hope Blizzard are giving OGN a stern talking to for damaging much of the excitement that had been built up by MLG, Gom and (especially) ESL.


Once again Apollo and Day[9] weren't casting the games. If you wanted to watch commentary you should be tuning into OGN1 or the GOM cast. It's funny because everyone who tuned in and paid close attention to this LR enjoyed the couch more than OGN1 and the GOM cast. The mixing of the overlays was annoying, but lots of people caught it early. Unfortunately their production team didn't. As for Damaging the excitement? lol You got to be joking especially when you consider all the snafu's those other production teams had. Stop grasping at straws fella!


Who are you to declare my concerns invalid? You think you know more about the experience I had than I do? This kind of attitude coming from a lot of posters recently is something I just can't understand... the implicit idea that anyone who finds fault with something isn't entitled to an opinion.

I watched the "non-casting" of the games because yes, eight hours after the games, OGN hadn't made the main VODs available. If I'd waited longer, having no idea how long it would take for said VODs, I'd have found it even more difficult to avoid spoilers of the final (having already had the semis spoiled).

MLG made some mistakes, but their presentation of games, overall professionalism and especially organisation of VODs was vastly superior to OGN's shambolic performance.

overall, OGN did good job. and they showed the their ability as well
as like they have been broadcast and host Tournaments for over 10 years

the tournament has started in quite the early time for the prime time in american time zones
at least, they were considered foreign viewers quite much

and you have to know OGN is TV station they Broadcasts nationwide of korea
so basiclly Koreans are their main target viewers. OGN produces and broadcasts in a format that works best for Koreans viewers

overall, Compared with other production team OGN they did good job

espeically speaking the OGN Lounge Talk Show, it was a variety show that i was so much entertaining
No complaints at all, in comparison with other broadcast production teams.
i like to see BW units in SC2

If your VODs have no sound just refresh a few times or remove the timestamp and go through the VODs manually. It's a TwitchTV bug.

Oh noes! VODs weren't up EIGHT HOURS AFTER.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2013_WCS_Season_1

9th-12th ($5000, +750 pts): (Z)Revival / (P)HerO / (Z)KangHo / (Z)TLO
13th-16th ($5000, +500 pts): (Z)DIMAGA / (Z)Symbol / (T)Ryung / (Z)Stephano
(co-inciding with 3rd and 4th place in group stage)

So apparently TLO finished as the highest-ranked non-Korean. Congratz, Dario!

Against another non korean to boot. I'm not sure if foreign players really stand a chance any more against top tier korean players.

I agree, these two guys are funny, witty, prepared, work hard and it shows. I greatly enjoy their casting and they never get boring to me. And Tastless in particular has a rare gift in explaining the game to casual spectators who don't know it.
