However, the cast with Artosis? That was friggin' amazing. I really, really hope those guys get to cast more often together, it was pure joy to behold how well they worked off of each other. | ||

Artosis is a great caster and having him cast with someone that can actually interact with him and offer some back and forth makes it very fun to watch. I think it's been the elephant in the room for months now: Tasteless is just not up to par with Artosis anymore, wether it's in game knowledge (obviously) or fun factor (which he actually used to have). In short he's dragging Artosis down, which is a real shame and I really hope he can get back to his shape from when SC2 first came out. Otherwise, the casting archon will slowly disappear over time as people realize they enjoy Artosis better when he's casting with someone else and Tasteless doesn't really bring anything to the table. | ||

Cos let's be honest here, Artosis is the one who is making the good jokes and actually doing serious casting & analysis & shows passion & gets excited. ARtosis is the Hero. Tasteless has become like a ball and chain around his ankle, and although he does very well to cover up for TAsteless' subpar performance, it's starting to show. It's not easy casting, I know, and grinding out endless hours of games can be tiring & travelling etc. But it's a job, this is THE dreamjob (according to tasteless). Just look at the KR commentators if you wanna complain about voice strain, game knowledge & excitement . Cos they give 100% EVERY SINGLE GAME and it shows regardless of the game or how they feel. I can feel their dedication and passion. I don't feel the passion or dedication from Tasteless. | ||

Heck, I enjoyed watching him and John the translator the other day during the Ro16 groupings. I didn't get to see him and Artosis cast together, but I could see how the two would make an amazing casting combo. | ||

You like to say a sentence and then repeat it as a transition into your next thought. It's not a bad thing here or there but I feel like you do this constantly. I didn't write down a specific example but it's something like: "He is building eight roaches.....he is building eight roaches and he will look to be aggressive....he will look to be aggressive against his opponent who is unprepared" | ||

I didn't write down a specific example but it's something like: "He is building eight roaches.....he is building eight roaches and he will look to be aggressive....he will look to be aggressive against his opponent who is unprepared" That's a nasty habit shared among many non-native English speakers. I do that alot myself, it's because you need a bit more time to process thoughts in your head when "thinking" in English. So to buy yourself time for forming the next thought, you repeat the sentence or take a pause. I'd say Khaldor is pretty good at masking the, let's call it, "thought lag". In fact it's inspiring, i myself struggle greatly with speaking English at even average pace. Better this than going "the uh... the... um" or having awkward silence, at any rate.  | ||

Yeah that is completely understandable. I'm sure he will get better as he casts more and more in English. | ||

I don't think he does enough to entertain, just churns out facts and observations, which is fine, but a bit boring. However, the cast with Artosis? That was friggin' amazing. I really, really hope those guys get to cast more often together, it was pure joy to behold how well they worked off of each other. I agree. I don't know if I really enjoy anyone solo-casting, so that's not a big deal. But the cast with Artosis was a revelation! Great synergy. | ||
