I can't remember at which point this was, but i remember hearing this. Well to be honest, Artosis is pretty right. IF this took place before Ro4 (like ro8 or something), Jjakji winning Leenock or MVP would be pretty big if you ask me. So i would have said the same in Artosis place, that no, he is not going to win.
But everything can happen, Jjakji is good, no doubt about that. But now that he is playing Leenock, one of the best ZvT atm if not best (not to mention Jjakji has lost to Leenock 2-0 earlier), it's not going to be easy. I would say the same if he would have faced MVP instead of Leenock.
It says absolutely nothing about any commentators. I think that guy made that up.
during the post game interview on the GSL stage by the Korean casters, Jjakji said something and tasteless said "That was inappropriate" or something like this. Brb, going to listen it again.

I believe it was at the end of the Ro16 when they were looking at the quarterfinal brackets if anyone wants to watch. All I remember is Artosis shooting down Jjakji having any chance and laughing.
Disappointed the MvP / Leenock game on dual sight didn't get more chat.... it was immense.
Likewise earlier on when they were talking about DreamHack I'd like to know how Sheth felt Game 2 vs HerO when even though he won HerO killed two maxed armies with that blink stalker micro.

He should have titled it "Is the EG house working ?" None of the players in the house have really progressed, except idra whose strenghts are better than before (but whose weakness are still here) Huk never trained there, Puma still live on his korean training, he's still good but not better than before. And all the players that should have benefited this training the most are still "bad" or have totally disappeared. Of course the house is a good thing. But does the house actually work as intended ? Who is the coach, by the way ?
DemusliM was coming up when he was still there. Having to go back home w/o a computer probably hurt him some. I think some people would also argue that Axslav, Machine, and Strifecro have gotten better. They did well in the IEM New York qualifier. Maybe not winning big tournaments but I don't think people expect them too. Can't have 8 aces on one team. They have IdrA, HuK, DemusliM, and PuMa who are all top tier players. Most teams probably don't even have 4 top tier players, besides Korean teams.

Fair enough. Well, if Artosis still looked at the possible opponents he is going to face, i personally would still have gone for the obvious choice.
But hey, it's Artosis. He down plays and hypes various players. I don't see nothing wrong with that thus i don't get annoyed or anything.

I highly doubt any of them watch the games (except Artosis)
Wasn't there a section in the GSL recently where while translating an interview Tasteless was like "hmmm, that's a bit uncalled for" regarding a players opinion?
Lol someone actually took the post game jjakji interview serious? Tasteless was just making up what he was saying for fun calling artosis biased and saying that was uncalled for. He never translated what jjakji was saying for real.

Yep. I'm listen it right now, jjakji's interview in ro4. At the end of the interview, Tasteless says to Artosis : "He said that your commentary was biased man, that was totally uncalled for" But did he say that during the interview ? Tasteless didn't translate that in the interview, so...I don't get it.
