Tasteless so thin! He's always looked badass though. I remember xel'naga caverns, it was my favorite map.

Truly awful observing. Did they have the broadcast running off of a PC that nobody was attending for a while? Some kind of mixup?

I think back then Artosis and Tasteless each had their own PC in front of them, one of which was the foreign broadcast PC.

They themselves would have been casting and observing either from their own, or the other's screen. That was probably just a prolonged moment of one watching the other's screen and forgetting his was the broadcast PC. The big screen in the studio would have been from the Korean observer's perspective and in-studio cameras to show audience members, like when the crowd cheers for MM, but the foreign broadcast is watching an AFK observer.

All I can say is I'm glad they decided to switch over to the Korean observer screen eventually.

Is the little cute Maru inside or not?
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Man, I forgot how slow WoL was. Say what you will about LotV, the sped up version is 1000x better than Wol's iteration. I wonder if SC2 would still be big in korea if lotv was the iteration we got instead of wol. Granted players now are so much better than they were back then.

Too fast, IMO hots was the best considering the speed of the game.

There used to be 15-20 pages of pre-show material pretty regularly. opterown, Lorning, Shellshock, and Darkhorse put together some incredible LR threads.

I still can't get over the fact of how Artosis looks exactly the same now as he did then and how tasteless looks so young.

Also guys to be fair these are early WoL matches. Very early. Look at matches in 2011 or 2012 and you'll se more difference.

For example, the legendary MVP vs NesTea BlizzCon finals on shakuras plateu. Or also MMA vs DRG in the same map at the Blizzard Cup finals (one of the best games ever).



You can see some difference, like very little creep spread (though to be fair it used to spread slower and people didn't build 10 queens at the time). But the game is much more dinamic and closer to what we have today, compared to the literal first season of GSL.
