I'm sure Artosis has correctly predicted Mvp and Nestea to win a bunch of stuff that they ended up winning. He's a pretty big fan of both. I think he also had Genius pegged in 2012 S1 from the Ro32 to win most rounds onwards. I remember him talking about it on SotG around that time. | ||

I might have cheered for MMA to win EU, but I wouldn't have predicted it. I agree. Rooting for someone is completely different than predicting them to win. You can root for an underdog, but still predict them to lose. On August 12 2013 16:02 bittman wrote: Glad you're doing both right and wrong predictions. Should colour code them though. Red for wrong, green for right. I agree. Since you put forth such amazing efforts, you should definitely take the time to color code it, too! | ||

Then he said Rian - Supernova was a hard call, but he was going with Rain (about 5 minutes in if you check the G1 vod). Honestly, in the knockout stages for WCS2 the only iffy prediction he got wrong was First - Bomber, he basically went with the favorites (I don't even have to look at the LR threads to know that Maru was not favored against Symbol, Innovation or Rain by TL...) the rest of the time and we saw a bunch of upsets. Artosis is definitely guilty of a hyping up players who show an awesome game (First) and assuming they'll always play like that though. I suppose the flip side of that is he tends to waaaay underestimate players who haven't shown such good games (like Maru vs SoS). But there's such a fine line between over hyping someone who's improving (did he turn the corner?) and discounting someone because he hasn't proven himself yet. | ||

I think I'll separate out the predictions and the cheering as well. | ||

jjakji and Maru have both been blessed by Tasteless apparently. The Tasteless blessing is way more rare than the Artosis curse, but it's there. | ||

Artosis: The new guy on the block is probably nervous being on stage for the first time and won't know what to do against this proxy hatch in his natural. This could be a fast one Tasteless. Tasteless: Yeah, I agree man. Arty: He's cancelling his gas. Oh god, he's falling apart. Cancelling things by accident. Arty: Now he build a second rax. I don't know about this tasteless. I would prefer a tank. No way he can hold his natural. Arty: OMG the marines are taking out the hatch. He sniped the tumour! Arty and tasteless: GG, a stunning upset after easily holding the cc block. | ||

Artosis's predictions always come before the game; the actual casting is precise and excellent, especially when he can joke around with Tasteless. | ||

Artosis predicts Rain to beat Fantasy (Note: This was the throw game) I find that part really insulting :/ | ||

It's the word "throw" itself. Throw designates, especially in the sc community, a conscious effort to lose the games. It brings up a lot of issues that have been faced in the past and is always very harshly looked upon. Especially the BW scandal, and the ESF weekly Coca-Byun thing. Honestly it shouldn't even be noted. | ||
