"Artosis & Tastosis"?

I thought Idra and Khaldor were excellent.
Definitely on par with Tastosis
|
i liked them alot as well.
i wouldn't go so far as to say they are better than tastosis, but i consider them to be close
really great job
|
The analysis is good but there's no enthusiasm in the casting

*No phony enthusiasm. That's one of the most refreshing things about them.

I liked them. Idra really knows SC2 well since he was a pro-gamer for a very long time, and his analysis made the cast worth listening to. Khaldor's play-by-plays was great as usual. It wasn't just two guys talking about a game, it was about understanding the backbone of the games as well. Idra could understand how each decision would impact a game, and his chemistry with Khaldor made it easy to put up with. They had their funny moments (and their awkward moments) but it was a really solid cast.

They were a good pair for sure, though I still have fond memories of Catspajamas and Doa together along with team K[9]. Tastosis are the people to beat for sure though.
|
Idra and artosis would be pretty awesome
|
I do not agree. It's pretty boring tbh
|
IdrA is a great caster,,,but Khaldor's bias to Zerg is just too much...otherwise he is ok...
|
IdrA is a really good caster for not having a lot of casting experience. Being a pro player does not give a person all the skills to be a good caster so it's expected that he won't be perfect, but I can see him becoming one of the best easily.
|
As a fan of Idra's stream because of his commentary, I find their casting duo to be spot on. Obviously there is place for improvement, but that will come when they understand each other better and Idra gets more comfortable in the casting chair. Heck, I would watch a game I’m not interested in just to listen to them cast.
Brazzers Guy  + Idra = Awesomeness
|
Nahhhh, Tastosis for lyfe.
|
Can I get a link to one of their casts? I would like to witness this so called synergy for myself

I would be 100% fine with this casting Duo if they stopped calling Nexus' "Planetary Nexus, and every 2 base pressure cheese...
That is all...oh and idra's rage towards protoss lol
Once those are fixd i think they'd be a pretty fine duo :D
I don't agree. Some terms are just used commonly. The same is true in casual speech in your local dialect as it is in certain cliques like SC2. Planetary Nexus is just common.... If you don't like it then you're one of the odd ones out. It's just normal.
IdrA's rage towards protoss adds to IdrA's casting personality. He doesn't go overboard with it at all from what I've seen, but it adds a little flair to the cast. I think it's totally fine.

I thought they were really good and it was surprising to hear and see a more relaxed and happy Idra. I can't remember hearing him laugh so much lol... But I kind of think it's due to Khaldor as well, they seem to get along well for some reason which is cool.
Definitely Idra is the more analytical but tbh I don't feel like Khaldor is playbyplay only, he actually knows a hell of a lot simply because he casts a ton of shit all the fucking time... like really, the guy is a casting machine.  Khaldor has also casted for a loooooong time since the warcraft 3 days yaknow. Albeit in german for the most part but still, he's not a newcomer to casting.
And knows what RTS games are about.. He also seems to be the kind of person who talks to alot of pro gamers and discuss the game frequently so he definitely has a lot of insights into builds and sc2 in general, plus the different players, cus he knows them and casts them and sees them play all the time. The guy should get a bit more recognition from people who thinks he's just a playbyplay caster who tries hard. He's actually pretty fucking good and mega invested..
tahts my 2cents..
P.S Tastosis are still the best OP. I'm sorry.
|
i listened to some of their commentray, and it is good, but a bit too dry. Dont get me wrong, i dont like the fake excitement and screaming either, but on the long run Idra's voice is very monotone and Khaldor's is not that much better
