EPTHowever im hoping that Artosis and Tasteless are required to watch the code A matches just so the know stuff about the incoming players. To this day, Artosis still thinks that Kyrix cheesed Ace out GSL2 Ro32. When really it was drawn out macro game, with Kyrix containing Ace one 2 base then rolling him over with 5. (tastosis were at blizzcon during that point in gsl)

Kelly is just not as lucky(which sucks, I don't have anything against her personally) as for her to improve in my mind, she needs to take a few years with someone to 'fix' her accent(and hopefully in the way, make her voice less annoying). Hence I don't really think anyone can 'carry kelly', even with artosis she's been driving me nuts. So yeah, Doa has huge potential, hope everything goes well for him  | ||

Like Doa's refreshing white maleness is just a sounding board on which to reflect vaguely racist and vaguely sexist anxieties about Kelly. | ||

Only the last couple pages Most of it has been about how impressed we are with Doa | ||

I'm more than content with the current state of GSL commentary. | ||

That said, at the moment it feels a little rough without either Tasteless or Artosis commentating because both of them know so much about the game and have a lot of really insightful things to say, and you can really feel their excitement whenever anything unusual happens. Kelly only occasionally has a few good predictions and her strategic commentary feels like common knowledge. Doa hasn't so far shown the same depth of knowledge that Tastosis have either, but he has only been casting GSL for one day, so he may find his groove. But it takes a special kind of person to point out stuff like why Zergs don't steal the second gas in ZvP anymore. We're lucky we've had Tastosis for so long already. | ||

Tastosis for Code S and Kelly/Doa for Code A. Awesomeness. I just hope that each casting archon keeps in touch with the alternate division (Tastosis watching Code A games and Kelly/Doa watching Code S games) so that they are well informed about new players coming into the division that they cast via up/down matches. | ||

I was at least fine with Kelly casting with one half of the archon, but now that neither Tasteless nor Artosis will be helping out in Code A, I can't really get too excited about watching it. | ||

We all know we watch the GSL for the puns and hilarious statements. Didn't like greg too much because he was all too serious the entire time. | ||
