Really weird not seeing incontrol there as host. I highly associate him with dreamhack hosting now (among other things of course). Cool seeing artosis with apollo again though!

I think I'd like to see incontrol main hosting, seltzer as co-host (interviews, filling time, etc), smix as translator (all events should have her), and of course adebisi is a given as second best observer out there =P (legend too good, it's like flash vs innovation in observer wars). Then have apollo, artosis, and incontrol swapping around with casting. That's pretty much a perfect lineup for me.

I would suspect it's a combination of his price and his desirability and how badly he would want to go.

I think he prices himself out of most tournaments. Artosis may cost the same amount (I have no clue), but he's more desirable for tournaments as he is not only the best caster, he makes all your other casters look good.

If Tasteless wanted to travel more I suspect he could lower his price to match his desirability, which would see him at more tournaments (which would be totally frickin' sweet).

In Real Talk Tasteless said he doesn't travel to foreign tournaments because unlike Artosis he has no family and so he does not need money as much and what he gets in Korea is more then enough (actually I recall him being proud of himself to a bit of unhealthy degree but then again he was pioneer in early days of SC1 so maybe it's justified - I don't know).

I liked them all
with the exception of the blonde girl... is there a wiki page of her? I couldn't find anything, only that she dated TorcH, which is not much of an acomplishment

No discredit to dApollo, I love his casting, he's one of the best if not the best caster around to me, but I find it sad to not see Tasteless at foreign events anymore. Doesn't he get booked? Is is really that he lost his passion? I did follow him through broodwar even when he still was a player and as caster.... and its kind of like good memories. I miss that

Oo;;

No family to support * ^^;;

I like Apollo and Artosis as a pair. For those wishing for Nathanias, I wouldn't be surprised if he were one of the community streams for the group stages. I also miss iNcontroL and ReDeYe, but I'm sure Seltzer and Smix will produce something fresh and interesting. ^^

i´m a bit worried about idras future here... i so hoped, he´ll be announced as a caster on any given chance at every major tournament.... but as things turn out, it aint gonna happen!
