That's all you have, your opinion, nothing truthful about that. Like who?All the casters out there right now actually play the game.Tastless does not play stacraft 2 and you can hear it from his casts.There was a time during 2012 where he actually tried to better his cast and started playing again and you can actually hear from what he is talking about that he knows what's going on,but that was a pretty short period. Here's a tastless cast for you: Before the game starts artosis talks about what the player has done so far and what he might do,tastless nods his head and agrees,says some generic stuff about how good the player is Game starts,artosis talks about the map and strategy,tastless agrees says more generic stuff,inserts a joke that stopped being funny in 2011 when he used it for the 100th time. Depending on how the game goes he says the following in between when Artosis needs a breather: "Well guys I don't know what to say this is more onesided than a mobius strip" "Expect gg and second" "OH MYYY GOOD THIS IS SO TENSE ARTOSIS" "THIS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES I HAVE EVER SEEN" Tastless was a awesome brood war caster,because guess what,he loved and played brood war.You can't tell me that the tastless that's currently casting plays sc2,there is no way.If you would replace tastless with a sound board with his generic phrases there would be literally no difference for the audience. | ||

FYI, this guy really doesn't like Tasteless. Like a lot. You can tell he watches all of Tasteless's casts just to be sure Tasteless is no longer plays SC2 and is the worst caster ever. He has to be sure. Every cast, every time, every word. | ||

His job isn't being an analytical caster, he is a hypeman. It's a little like DJWheat, that really doesn't know a lot about SC2, but he is good at casting whatever, just in asking questions, bringing the energy and so on. There's a reason tasteless and artosis "fill out eachother" (no homo) so well. When you hear Artosis cast with other people, like Apollo for instance (which is another great analytical caster imo) it is totally different. Some prefer it, but 100% of the cast is then analytical, and there is no hype or energy, and people that don't play on Master+ level will probably tune out a lot of the technical talk. | ||

I have nothing against tasteless I'm just saying his SC2 casts are no different from his LoL casts. | ||

This is a nice line-up of personalities.. but the analytical side is immensely lacking. It's just axslav, really. I've grown more and more fond of him over time.. and he has improved. But as a decent player, I don't want to listen to this crew blowing excitement up my butt via a sheer sensory experience, and hype words. Le sigh. This scene's big tournaments aren't what they used to be  To be fair, if you are a decent player you should be able to analyze the game yourself while watching (at least to some extent). Personally Ive come to enjoy playbyplay casters more and more, GOGO MLG! | ||

Totalbiscuit and axeltoss are average but I love axslav. Would have liked to see bitterdam in the mix. Probably my favorite casting duo | ||
