the origin of the artosis curse wasn't as simple as him making bad predictions.

He cursed players by overhyping them "oh my god, this is champion caliber play", "we could be looking at the next gsl champion", and "i don't think anyone can beat this guy".

and then they'd fade it into obscurity for a while.

On Kim Carrier: we have recorded a fairly recent instance in which KC and Artosis predicted different players and Kim Carrier's curse overpowered Artosis'. I don't remember what match it was.

During Artosis "grilled" interview he said fans have selective memory, and they forget when he called winners at a high ratio for 1/2 a year. Do we have evidence this is actually true?



I think most intelligent people don't legitimately believe Artosis is "stupid" or "clueless" or anything like that - they just stick with this because it is funny, not because they think badly of Artosis.

I think most people find his extreme hype of players stands in contrast to his reputation as the analytically/big picture guy (no one gives crap to Tasteless for his picks because he is a color commentary/play by play guy)

Proof smashing down from everywhere proving that Artosis is completely clueless lol :D


I think part of the problem Artosis has with making proper calls is that he becomes invested in certain types of players. He doesn't often pick the cheesier, micro-centric players but leans more toward those who are innovative or play a safe-macro mechanical style. Artosis really liked Myungsik's new PvZ build (hes been testing out on ladder while streaming) but Myungsik himself isn't as good as Artosis hyped him up to be.

I'm loving all these theories. If anyone is familiar with how Artosis used to play Terran back in BW BP then I'd say your safe-macro mechanical style is spot on lmao.

I swear Artosis cursed Jaedong at a Dreamhack recently didn't he?
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)

Hilarious list, but the Rain over Fantasy one should not count IMO. There was like 0 chance Fantasy was gonna seriously actually try to win that game given the circumstances.

TheDougler - I remember Artosis on his stream saying something like "I don't know if Jaedong will win blah blah, but I'll bet you just about anything he wins the next Dreamhack." I actually wrote it down in a Notepad file to see if he would be correct or not.

So is this a complete list of any found, including pregame predictions or is this mostly just his wrong ones?

No not complete yet. It'll take a long time before we can get a complete list just because of how many there are. So far these are just ones from recent + a few famous ones from his past.

Except Nestea I think.

Come to think of it, Nestea was ridiculously hyped by Artosis for a long time and didn't do so badly.

Holy shit, that's a lot of reds. I thought when the time came and someone compiled them all, it would not look nearly this bad.

Hmm, why did you put everything in spoilers? Just curious. It was easier to appreciate the amount of wrong compared to the amount of right with visual indicators.

Still very nice of you to put this list together OP.

Some of you are taking this seriously??? Artosis curse is just a joke, if you think it's any more than that, you don't understand the concepts of cherry-picking and confirmation bias.
Give me your ladder points!
