Why oh WHY do they choose to use sub-optimal casters in an event people pay $20 for!!?!?! Its always such a buzz kill when a really important match is casted by anyone but the best ;_;

I just feel like if they are trying to make the argument that this is a really deluxe tournament, totally worth the $20, they really don't show it by telling us we won't even get the best casters for all the games.

Don't be an idiot. We both know the gained viewers from featuring tastosis more than makes up for the expenses to bring them over. Not having them literally guarantees no one will watch.

Not everybody is crazy about Tastosis.

I personally don't think they're the best of the best out there. I tend to prefer casters who keep a closer eye on the player scene they represent (i.e. Korea) and while I understand they're both busy individuals with lives outside of casting, I find it very unappealing that half the time they aren't even up to date/correct on happenings within the GSL.



Way to respond by saying something that was completely irrelevant to his point lol. Your personal preference is irrelevant to the question of whether it was financially wise to fly Tastosis in.

His point was that the viewers drawn by bringing Tastosis in justifies the cost. I responded with the fact that not EVERYONE considers them the best casters around. I then listed why I personally don't

There are also plenty of casters in the States that could draw just as many, if not more, viewers.

Say what you want about who is better or worse, but acting like they aren't the most famous is being silly. They are hands down the most widely accepted and most widely praised.

Khaldor and Wolf are quickly catching up, but I'd say Tastosis is still the clearly dominant casting duo.

Other than Day9 (who is 'booked' and is unavailable) or Husky (do not know the reasoning there, not my personal favorite but he has a large following + I have to thank him for getting me into pro sc2) and the other casters already attending, I can't think of anyone that fits the bill. Unless you were referring to one of them, in which case forget what I said.

I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Having Tastosis makes me wish I had a pass, its a pleasure listening to them cast...if it was ten dollars I would pay for it for sure.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

I don't like Tastosis, If I wanted to watch them, I'd pay for GSL. Their inclusion has made me reconsider the $20 (I know I'm the tiny minority). Sad that day9/Husky are unavailable.

I like Rob but he needs to be paired with someone who really knows the game well.

Too bad Day9 couldn't make it or whatever, but Tastosis will be great.
