This isnt facts, this is just you ranting about some guy you apperantly dislike.
tosis and tasteless are the last 2 persons in the sc2 scene that need to change.
how are you not doing anything but ranting and being much more bitchy and childish than the OP
I haven't watched a lot of GSL - only the few matches I've managed to catch live. But I watched a lot of Tastosis during MLG and I didn't notice any of the things the OP mentions.
- Please don't mention "sex" on-air again, or at least not say the word so downright. Esports is still largely unaccepted in society, even in korea (i'm a korean, so i know). If you don't act to the bare minimum on one of esports premier events, how do you expect people to start taking this sport seriously?
I think there are a few important reasons why esports has yet to be taken seriously as something to be enjoyed by all people of all ages, but Tasteless' casting style is not among them. Tasteless' casting will evolve as he gets older and more experienced, and as his audience widens, but I think the hardest part is still convincing people that SC2 isn't just for awkward teenage boys.
Marines are getting slaughtered everywhere! A big pile of blood and gore is all that's left from them, meanwhile a banshee is killing all the workers! Violence! Bullets! Bodies!
this is not:
the caster used the word sex
Some people are just weird. What the hell is wrong with the word sex lol. Is this still the victorian age?
Why does the NFL exclude all of the rest of the world from watching? The rest of the world like football (soccer), but the NFL is only football (hand egg?). The NFL should actually be soccer, so that the rest of the world can enjoy it as well.
i dont understand why it is everytime some guy from US who complains about bad language...
never (or mostly never) these people come from EU or Asia. the prude/sexism/double moral standards of US are a common cliche, there is no need to proof it every two weeks.

I'm 'rating' at his 'rant' because its pointless and just another useless discussion created by some inbred who apperantly gets upset by everything. Saying that tasteless out of all casters is unproffessional then point out that he's not a caster like Artosis because he overuses words like "good" and "cool" This isnt constructive at all, just some minor thing that upset the OP and he wanted to whine about it, sorta like the whole drama about incontrol saying "rape" on stream.
Like really ? keep your useless opinion to yourself bro.

This is a good point that Zandar mentioned above. Noone cares about the violence etc. in the video games but god forbid that a shoutcaster uses a "dirty" word like Sex/raped and such other things, people act all hysterical about so useless things that posts like these make die alittle inside.
I must not be paying attention since every single kid that dosnt hear a curse word in his childhood grows up to be the president of his country, right?
i think the mentality that something u like cannot have flaws or atleast u're not able to admit them in this topic is hilarious. if i didn't know better i might think tasteless was some kid who can't handle anything based on this topic with all these people overdefending and unable to squeeze even 1% objectivity in their viewpoint.
I don't understand why people get so upset when casters say the same things that everyone else does and are relaxed and cool about it.
This reminds me of the Dj Wheat thing where he said "What's up bitches" or something to that extent.
I for one actually enjoy the casts more when the casters are joking and having a great time. IMO, they can say whatever they want, just provide me with some good commentary while doing it.

battle going on at polt's natural i think.
artosis starts going on about some banshee that's in production.
someone on vent worded it very succinctly - "that's nice, we can see that by looking at the top left, do they wanna focus on the battle now?"
Lol, you can see the battle as long as the observer is paying attention to it.. whats your point?
As for the thread: Tasteless is awesome is he is.. :D In the slight chance that he reads this: Keep up the awesome work!
we might be able to see the battle, but it'd be nice for them to talk about the battle more often instead of talking about irrelevant crap.
it's their job. why do you think they hire casters in the first place, if an observer following the action in-game is all that's needed?
don't get me wrong, tastosis is fine most of the time. just last night they seemed exceptionally goofy, which is a bit weird for a semi-final of such a massive tournament.
Tastosis is by far my favorite casting duo. The "unprofessionalism" (and I hesitate to use that term) is a huge part of their charm. Artosis clearly serves his role as the analyzer, and Tasteless keeps it fresh. He has a good enough understanding of the game to do what he needs to do.
As far as trying to get them to conform to what we would consider broadcasting standards: don't. I'd rather watch two friends sit around and make jokes while casting a game than watch two robots tell me what I can already discern, followed by an impassioned analysis.
