You guys seem to imply that Artosis can wipe the floor with Day9 in a Bo5 Edit: NVM I didn't know Day9 attends school. So Artosis def. has more practice hours than him... Day9 is Artosis' rival from Brood War. Day9 isn't progamer material in SC2 unless he starts playing again. As for Brood War, they're probably equal after so long, but Artosis' mechanics would be stronger after such a hiatus. | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=69287 Here is a link to the TSL 1 qualifiers in spring of 2008. Notice that Artosis is ranked B+ which is nothing to sneeze at. Day is also ranked B- with only a fraction of the games that Artosis played. If Day played more games he would obviously be ranked much higher. Day was a great player, but Artosis was also very skilled. At the beginning of the iccup and post PGTour days Day started to focus more on school and commentary and naturally his starcraft skill diminished. This is not to say he is bad or anything he would whoop me silly. Artosis is better at the moment because he is putting more time into playing the game and putting more time into the game in general. I guess we will never know who is the best until when or if Day starts to put more time into playing the game. Day may have been ranked top 200, but I also remember Artosis being ranked very high up on the Korean server before he started commentating GSL. | ||

Artosis has so much passion and love for the game he's casting and training until he gets a break and gets into the gsl thats probley why he took the job in korea to be at the centre of the scene and to become better | ||

No offense, but Artosis is a terrible player. He is low/mid masters. Psy can match most pros (hes beaten everyone on team ROOT as well as many other professionals) and plays at the high masters level. | ||

I am sure now that he is practicing again he will become good again. | ||

Day9 isn't at top level because of school and Tasteless isn't what he used to be play wise imo. Rotterdam is good, but I've never seen him enter a tourny, so maybe I'm wrong. Will change in the near future and hopefully I can show you your not wrong :D | ||

Artosis is near top masters as he has been playing more lately! | ||

We've seen him beat Artosis in SC1. He beat Tasteless in the SC2 showmatch. Plus he crushed quite a few of the other casters mentioned in SC2 as well, despite not playing seriously. Day9 vs PsyStarcraft Day9 vs HDStarcraft Day9 vs HuskyStarcraft | ||

His interviewing skills are so good as well. He picks out extremely techincal things that i haven't heard any other commentator pick up. His questions are around timing etc, he almost tells the player what they did wrong in question form. Love his work. | ||
