I just always laugh when tastosis think that they're "too good" for some tournaments now. You talk about a video game get over yourself...

At least he doesn't give as much blatantly wrong or heinously oversimplified analysis anymore. He used to say much more stupid stuff during BW. I have always thought he was a horrendous caster since the old days of BW, and I can't think of a reason this will change. We need someone like Chill.

I don't see why all of TL needs to discuss this. Seems like its just an opportunity for all to poke fun at a great caster and community member. Regardless if there are a few posts that would help, 37 pages on this topic already makes those posts few and far between.

This OP should have been a PM to Tasteless. /End Thread

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.


Just because you label your criticism as "constructive" doesn't make it that.

I just have to cringe several times EVERY GAME when he says something that so fundamentally misses the mark.


Not constructive. The one example you gave is completely spurious.

And even if your criticism was actually "constructive", Tasteless will not read this thread. The vast majority of posts since your necro have been subjective nonsense.

Apart from completely unquantifiable things like "he's lost his passion" and "his game knowledge is poor", people are literally complaining that he fills dead air with jokes instead of "theorycrafting". This is subjective. This is your personal preference.

I've skimmed through the last pages and I don't see a single example brought up by anyone that would illustrate his supposedly glaring lack of knowledge.

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.


Esports already is legitimate. There's nothing illegitimate about slightly off-color jokes. I suppose you think Louis CK's comedy is also aimed at adolescents (hint = it's not).



Nice job cherry picking one sentence out of all my posts and calling me not constructive lol. Your example isn't even offensive because it's true that Tasteless has significant miss-calls in every game. Lets try an accurate assessment of my posts:

" I only state this criticism because I think it would his casts with Artosis greatly"

"Tasteless does neither and for the sake of making GSL casts even better than they are now, he should improve. "

"I do enjoy Tastosis casts, but they still have a lot of untapped potential"

"Increased game knowledge will always increase a caster's appeal"

"I don't want to be too harsh because I appreciate the contributions he has made to the scene over the course of his career"

"Therefore, even though I love Tastosis right now, I do think they could be even better if Tasteless knew his stuff."


And I did provide an example of his low game knowledge in my necro post. I thought about posting a breakdown of a game I chose at random but figured it would be overly nit-picky and people would agree with the notion that his game knowledge is lower than it should be. And frankly if you don't think his game knowledge is low then I would question whether yours is any higher than his. But if you really think examples are necessary to prove the point I'll be happy to go back over some games.
