Thank you for answering the opposite question of the OP

From what I know its probibly Artosis but day9 is really good too. Is there any replays of them playing against each other?

Although not as good as the two obvious choices HD is very good, nowhere near pros but he's better than 99% of the players out there.

Artosis, made it into GSL 1, and was pretty close to make it to other GSLs.
He's the only one you somewhat know what he's capable right now.

Day9 is a mistery, i can't believe how many are saying it's him, no one saw him play. Fanboyism at its best.
Tasteless' skill is also unknown but i assume he's bad cause of his limited build / strategic knowledge when commentating.

Husky is bad at the game, HD is decent.

Chill is probably the best pure caster-player I could name with no real tournament or sponsorship experience unlike Artosis, Tasteless, and Day[9], Incontrol et al.

Artosis, Day[9] and Tasteless will obviously all play against each other a lot being as close friends as they are. (well day and tasteless are brothers and judging by daily100.. i can't see them not having a daily game or two) So i'd imagine there are probably a lot of replays of them playing against each other, just not in public. Problem is if they play on smurfs then they won't get released. Someone get Artosis on twitter and get him to play a showmatch vs Day[9] using their known accounts (ie day[9]'s daily account.)

You're just talking out of your ass right now. Tastosis do the best job of keeping viewers engaged in a game, even if it seems one-sided or downright boring. Just because they don't say, "X is finished now. He should just gg," doesn't mean they don't know it's over.

Unbelievable. I just can't believe you said they have a terrible understanding of the game. If you hadn't written so much I would have thought you were a troll.

I want you to go and read my post again (or the rest of the thread) and realize how much you failed reading properly, then realize it doesn't matter and we all make mistakes and that there is no shame in admitting 'Oh, okay, I misread, sorry', and go on with your life.

Would you do that for me?

Didn't he retire because he had an arm injury that prevents him from playing at a high level?

Artosis for sure is the best because he gets on really well with tasteless and knows the game inside out, but IdrA would be an awesome co-caster for tasteless, a funny guy and a really serious guy goes well cause u can get the definitive opinion from experience or a different opinion from tasteless. They have to have chemistry though, nothing worse than watching people commentate who just don't enjoy their job (aka kelly milkies).

Artosis in my opinion, Day9 haven't been competative for a long time but i bet if he actually started practicing again he could be a top progamer

Artosis is way better than Day9, unless Day 9 has improved immensely. Qualifying for the GSL proved he is a top 1% player. Day 9 took a very long time to get into diamond (I remember him mentioning finally getting into diamond) when he was practicing with the likes of Jinro. Check the Day 9 archives.


-- day9 vs Tasteless matches in beta.

Day 9 has master's level mechanics and obviously great game knowledge, but in the heat of the game his decision making is poor. And he also seems to have a love for bad compositions he thinks are cool and playing random. So he's more interested in having fun than making a run for pro.

One that hasn't been mentioned yet is d.apollo, who commentated IEM and dreamhack with day9. Even though he hasn't won anything yet, he's competing in weekly ESL cups and beaten some good players.

Artosis may be better though.

First, the distinction between "commentator" and "caster" needs to be established. Second, there needs to be a poll. Third, ARTOSIS!
