On a related note, was Terry actually fired?

Today was always meant to be his last day, so no.

Nestea resisted it for quite some time I guess. But look at him now.

I find he often predicts protoss players to win, particularly against terran opponents, hes a protoss player himself and yeh is a big time fanboy and it influences his predictions. Terran has long been his least favourite race, and he often picks against Terrans apart from one or two exceptions. IMO.
That being said, he seems to like Polt now, which he never did in the past. Poor Polt He overcame it today, but I dunno whether Artosis officially predicted he would win though.

Result: Myungsik loses group 0-2, map score 1-4


I think Artosis hit Myungsik harder than just cheering. He spent 10-15 minutes talking about how awesome and cool Myungsik and his game against Hyun was in the IEM KR qualifier. Although he did not make any predictions, this kind of behaviour is one of original tenents in his curse.

So, I just re-watched the TSL bracket show for scientific reasons, because, while Artosis was´nt there in person, djWheat read his words a few times:

+ Show Spoiler +


8:20-9:00 "this match will be decided by Fruitdealer [...] if he plays a bit more conservative, he wins 100%[...]
ThorZaiN wins 2:0

14:39-15:00
Artosis predicts White-Ra to beat Loner
White-Ra wins 2:1

23:06
Artosis predicts Mvp to win vs Adelscott
Adelscott wins 2:0

25:36
Artosis predicts Genius to win vs QXC
QXC wins 2:1

27:15
Artosis predicts NaDa to beat TLO
NaDa wins 2:1

33:11
Artosis predict Haypro to beat Kas
Kas wins 2:1

39:50 Says smth. about Sen vs Fenix, but gives no clear predictions, just, that it depends on Sen´s training.
42:15 Says smth. about Boxer vs NightEnD, no prediction

48:05
Artosis predicts Jinro to beat Morrow
Morrow wins 2:1

52:47
"Huk will win this, but upsets are possible"
HasuObs wins 2:1

57:47
"Nestea will eat GoOdy"
GoOdy wins 2:1

1:03:03
Artosis predicts Ret to probably win vs Naniwa
Naniwa wins 2:1

1:05:40
"Idra is way better than Cruncher"
Cruncher wins 2:1

1:10:36
Artosis predicts Mondragon to beat Zeerax
Mondragon beats Zeerax 2:0


So, summed up, Artosis was 3-9 in TSL 3 first round predictions, he cursed Fruitdealer, Mvp, Genius, Haypro,Jinro, Huk Nestea, Ret and Idra succesfully, while only White-Ra, NaDa and Mondragon were able to beat the curse.

Don't know if he was actually "fired," but he was certainly pulled off the air indefinitely until his internship ended. They even found a new translator. Depends on if you wanna call that fired.

When your internship ends, you're required to leave aren't you? My understanding (at least in Canada, but it could be wrong of course) was that when your internship ended, you would have to leave that area (or have it not count as part of the internship), and then return to school.

On another note, when does school usually start for the USA?

Yeah but the thing was it didn't end until the day after. Unless someone states otherwise, he was still translating among other things until the end of the event, all of which he was presumably barred from after being pulled. Fired probably isn't the right word, but they definitely gave him early leave from his internship.

Fall semester generally starts in the beginning of september.

Artosis says that he will swallow a sword if SanZenith makes it out of his Ro32 group, which also had Nestea, Boxer, and Ensnare. San goes 3-0 and makes it to the Ro4 of the tournament.

GSL November 2011

Artosis claims that anyone but jjakji will win the whole thing. jjakji wins the whole thing.
GSL Season 4 2012

Artosis predicts that Mvp will win the finals 4-1 or 4-2. Mvp loses to Startale_Life 3-4.


Thanks, I'll add this to the list. If you can find evidence that'd also be good.


For jjakji:

i know for a fact hes made more right predictions than the 3-4 listed. Nestea vs losira code S finals? drg vs genius? MVP vs squirtle. mvp vs top. Puma in his early foreigner dominance days.

people are trying so hard to make this "real". most likely his overall predictions is around 50/50 which is NORMAL, he just makes a lot of them so obviously hel have a lot more wrong predictions with it

I believe he then swapped back to Squirtle after it reached game 7 as well which just made it to perfect.
