If I could be critical of Artosis, it would have to be the apparent lack of preparation. During the Nonge/Nestea game, it just seemed like he was casting it and arbitrarily pausing to reflect on game decisions.

He uses lots of "ifs" and "maybes" and "probablys" where it begins to feel like he hasn't necessarily watched the replay or anything. I know the unfortunate comparison is Day[9], so I guess it bares mentioning that Day[9] ALWAYS knows what's coming and can explain how these things relate to the late-game (which he has seen).

For instance: Artosis will say things like "If Nestea is considering Broodlords later, this may be a good move." Day[9] will say things like "And this move makes sense, as Nestea moves towards the late game with Brood Lords in mind."

It just makes the analysis feel more solid and less on-the-fly. I know it's just the first episode (and it was really good, I obviously watched) but that's some constructive criticism. Overall, I enjoyed the episode!
