You mad because the "dick 5 foot long" line is missing in the GSL version?

Because the song itself is impossible to dislike!

yes without the "carrying" of artosis, tastless could be compared to itmejp.

I disagree with everyone who thinks Tasteless is overhyped as a caster, and Artosis is way better than him. I don't care what anyone tells me, I just think it is important for people like Tasteless to know that there are people like me that think he is a way better caster than Artosis ! Never give up Mr. Nick Plott ! Tasteless > All !!!

This thread really didn't need necroing.

Tasteless will never read it, nor does he have to. He's wildly popular, and should just keep doing what he's doing.

It's perfectly fine that you don't prefer his style. But this is just mewling.

Yup Tasteless is perfect and there's no room for constructive criticism. Popularity = perfection and there's no room for him to get even better.

Tasteless' popularity does not hinge on him being better or worse, it hinges on him being Tasteless (no pun intended).

Not the most appropriate thread during a Plott family emergency


Tasteless and artosis make an amazing team.

Sure neither of them are their usual 120% all the time ... but they cast for HOURS AND HOURS ... havent done the maths bu ti bet i have literally spent months of my life giggling along with those 2. Even my wife finds them funny - and its usually tasteless that sets her off tbh.

of course you can OD on them and pick holes. But the fact is they manage to have funny casts that are insightful and they can always find something interesting in the most boring of games.

So if i have to put up with someones diction - that incidently is a large part of defining who they are - becoming slightly repetative because i watched WAY too much of them ....

Thats awesome.

Its kinda funny - its the GSL casters I come back to time and time again.

I'm going to have to agree to a point. Tasteless is becoming complacent.

He is top notch along with Artosis (the Casting Archon) there is no aruging that. I have watched a lot of other casters and I cannot say I like many. The C.A. is by far my favorite to listen to. I understand having fun while casting but Tasteless, of late, I feel has lost some of that professionalism he once had.

On a side note, people are demanding that 'Esports' be taken legitimately. And when you have professional casters talking like an adolescent referencing genitals and what have you, its not very couth. Artosis is very technically proficient in the Starcraft universe. And I'm positive Tasteless is as well, but he doesn't often demonstrate that certain aesthetic sense he once had.

I don't see hosts on the NFL, NBA, MLB, etc., talking like some of the people that are trying to make a living in this casting career. This hurts Esports, casters, and reputations of the games themselves. Telling the community to "grow up" and "if it offends you" is wholly the wrong answer. Both situations are alienating, especially when trying to pull an audience/sponsors that may be sitting on the fence.

There is nothing wrong with the way Tasteless represents himself in casts. You think that commentators don't make jokes on NBA? Look at Charles Barkley or whoever else is on the NBA panel they make rude jokes all the time and screw around. If a commentator can do his job but also make it pleasant to watch the cast then they are doing everything correct. You think most people would rather have a pure professional cast from tasteless and Artosis with no jokes or banter or the occasional explicit joke? I wouldn't.. so without telling you to "grow up" i would tell you to re-evaluate how you look at this situation.

If this is esports in the future, I don't want it. I like the way it is now, people just having fun commentating games - not being scared to make a joke in case it offends someone/*potential* sponsors.

To be honest, Starcraft 2 in general has become boring for me to watch.

The only thing that keeps me watching Starcraft 2 is casts with Tasteless & Artosis.

This post is not needed ever...

Tasteless is .... IS... one of the best casters in Starcraft. Period. Criticizing the best caster is like criticizing Michael Jordan for having no 3 point shot. WHO CARES. They are the best at what they do.

People like apollo... which i hate his style... but you don't see myself make a post about him.

Artosis and Tasteless are the pinnacle of casting. Without them, I would never watch another GSL Code S again. I don't watch code A because they aren't casting it.

You can never make Baby Boomers appreciate esports as a whole. A few people yes, but don't try to fight a generational stigma.

That being said any time you are humorous without being crass you win in anything that goes anywhere.

Tasteless is the bomb!

Tasteless is baws, end of story. People don't seem to understand the purposeful dynamic that they have built, of which Tasteless fulfills his part perfectly.

People criticizing are just jealous because Tasteless is the most handsome guy on the planet. Also what you guys need to realize is that he is being very nice to us, he could be winning GSL, GSTL, OSL, PL - all of these by himself and just by stepping into the booth. He doesn't even need to touch the keyboard and the mouse.
He's just not doing this because he wants us to have suspense and discuss other players, he also does that because if he steps into the booth lots of progamers and proteams would be loosing their job.

Stop saying bad stuff about Tasteless, if you do that you might get struck by a lighting bolt. It's true. People have died already.

tbh this goes for me to, i dont watch any IPL or anything, i watch specific stuff based on commentators, like maybe a grand final or something with incontrol/tastosis/idra/a korean thats not fluent in english tries to cast. SC2 is not as good as bw as a spectator sport X_X

There is a reason why GOMTV keeps Tasteless. He is good at analyzing and being funny. And about the sex part, I think it's ok to mention it, I don't know why you think it is sooooo taboo :/
