It doesn't work that way Artosis has to really belive what he predicts.

nah, Artosis is a noob compared to Kim Carrier ( 31 wrong predictions before his 1st correct one according to http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=110431 )

I think that at it's core, the Artosis curse is about him hyping up an unknown player a lot and having that player fall short of the expectations, not just making wrong result predictions.

He hyped up Clide and Bomber as the next best SC2 players ever and Major as the next great foreigner, but none of them have quite met expectations. He did put some hype on MVP before he went off, but IIRC, it was mostly Tasteless who was praising MVP to no end.


I think it's more with the way the predictions tend to play out rather than just pure results. so often there's some horrible flame out after artosis picks someone.

So is there a Tasteless Blessing? He predicted Jjakji to win that GSL before ro8.

A prediction on who's gonna win Red Bull Training Grounds, but he was not passionate about his picks and seemed like he just glanced over the player list and picked some names out, nonetheless his three picks did not win it.

at 96m33s

Picking Grubby, Demuslim, and Sound.

Grubby: 5./6. place
Demuslim: 3./4. place
Sound: 2. place.

Safe to say that this curse effects not only starcraft 2 players, but EVERYONE! Nobody is safe.


Photoshopped, as much as I wish that tweet was real.


On a related note, was Terry actually fired?

The Artosis curse > EG curse (although JD is pretty cursed atm)

Imagine if Artosis was on EG. Maybe that's the only way to break the curse?! Or it would make the ultimate curse.. Scary thoughts

i.e. Form his own team and always bet against them


I think the curse only works when he fervently believes who he predicts to win, which makes this that much more funny.


Yeah, you should only include the predictions from Artosis where he has a high level of conviction.

It probably wouldn't look as one-sided when you do that.

Hmm, I like the idea to keep track of it from this point forward, but adding this retroactively might be a bad idea because people mostly remember when he was completely wrong (jjakji) and not when he may have been right so it seems worse than it is. However, if someone feels like watching through old vods and tweets it could be valid.

So it turns out Artosis is more of a god than anything, yes?

A total summary would be nice and a conclusion.

In total 1/10 that is really shitty predictions (if op are correct about artosis predictions).
If he flipped a coin it would give him better result TT.


This has already been discussed. Any coin he tries to flip he has already cursed.

Assuming that any prediction done without any kind of insight on the game has a 50% chance of becoming true, and given that Artosis has correctly predicted 6 out of the 33 outcomes listed in the OP, by the magic of the binomial distribution we can find that:

- The probability of getting such a result is p=0.0001
- The p-value associated with such a result is p-value=0.0004

The alternative hypothesis being that the Artosis curse is real is therefore confirmed, even under the most stringent p-value threshold of 0.001.

CURSED.

Obviously, he bets against the player he's predicting to win.

Hell, it's so obvious.

Jesus it's actually worse than I thought it would be. So basically Rain is the only player that can resist the Artosis curse?

Not to ruin the fun but most people probably only remember the ones where he was wrong because that is when the big deal is made.

We don't know this. Why would he curse MC when everybody asked him not to ?
What if his has learned to control his powers ?
Anyways, girlfriend's curse is stronger than artosis curse.
