Tasteless jokes a little too much. I trust his knowlege of the game, and of the korean scene in general.I would like to hear more of it. He states the obvious a little too much. He could show more passion for the matches. It's often Artosis being excited and Tasteless just saying "Yeah", in a common voice. Artosis also jokes too much. I sometimes feel his knowlege of the game is a little overrated. I don't like when he criticizes the players' choices instead of explaining them. He states the game is over way to fast. I feel that any caster should always wait for the gg before making assumptions. | ||

Is this the kind of impression we want to be giving to the public? They actually should be excluded as long the current integrity of the casting remains. Their mom will ban them from watching or playing SC2. In the future one or all of them will get around to watching it when they are old enough to use their own judgement. They'll shrug when the majority of games don't have a sex joke that could make them uptight and accept the scene for what it is, a less uptight version of competitive sports. The OP has a point that TAsteless should offer better insight into his thought process when he ends up interrupting Artosis only to point out something amusing (which is a coin flip in the chuckle inducement because of the poor timing) or only to say something really simple like GOOD. He needs to take a breath and offer better commentary then. The rest of his casting is fine. Besides people should be less concerned about what Tasteless' casting is doing for the image of professionalism with esports than the reliance of ID tags for players. Our gamer mentality to refer people by their ID instead of their name is far more damaging. It would be preferable if the ID and names were interchangeable in usage but if I had to fall back on one to lend some more professionalism to the scene I would have to be forced to use a person's name. ID tags regardless of how you came up with them originally are filtered through the bias of what viewers know. A friend of mine has had a noticeable dislike for Marinekingprime primarily because of his ID. Whenever he makes mistakes he'll call him out on it with far more enthusiasm than other players. Lot's of people held their nose when a guy decided to call himself Alicia and they still do. Using actual names gives you a connection to the person's possible ethnic origin (which you can have an easier time identifying with), and allows you to speak about them in casual conversation without random jokes interrupting the flow of the conversation. | ||

I can see GSL as being a family show, so talking about sex and using vulgarities is probably not the best idea. Also, while a stronger diction couldn't hurt, I don't really mind Tasteless being Tasteless -- that's what makes their casting duo so good. This. I've never noticed tasteless cutting off Artosis, and aside from his sex remark (i noted it too and thought it was too off-topic even for tasteless) everything else about them is perfect. They fill time when there is no action better than any other casting pair, something that is very hard to do because you can say "and they're massing up.... yep" only so much. Who gives a shit about using some of the same words, he's been using more every cast too. I think you're nitpicking on things that bother you particularly. go back and watch more casts, you'll notice tasteless introduces new vocabulary on the nerd world fairly often. I know i've had to google some of his words more than once =P | ||

Everyone can improve in what they do, be it work or hobby. As long as it's constructive and not offensive i really don't see a problem with providing some pointers. | ||
