There's an old clip of Artosis and Tasteless introducing Nestea to the GSTL when it's his turn to play.
I know the lead is Artosis yelling "IT'S TIME" and at some point Tasteless goes "you stupid god damn nerds...I HAVE TO PLAY?" imitating Nestea.
They then go on to describe how men, women, people faint, worlds cease to exist, etc.
I cannot find it ANYWHERE. I think it was around 2011 or 2012, but I can't find it in any of the GSTL Season 1 2011 Vods and I can't find vods for the original GSTL 1, 2, 3 tournaments.

I wish, alas it was already taken, there was only He_R0 left. So I'm simply a measly Nakajin with a very specific set of knowledge.
If you really want to be hero, here's the list of taken names so you can make your own. Also, username "!HerO" is totally up for grabs. That would make you the top of the hero list. Ironically it also means "not hero" if you are a coder.
Impressive! I’ve got a real challenge for you now, been hunting this for years :p
When Red City was in the pool Tasteless coined the phrase ‘sick city’ which cracked me up, and became an oft-repeated phrase in our group of SC fans to this day, but I’ve never been able to actually find the cool

Damn, hubris catched up with me real quick
I have no idea, but I can at least tell you that the phrase predate Red City as it's already referenced heavilly on TL during the last GSL of WOL, Red city being a HOTS map. (Also a couple of time before, all the way to october 2012, but it's hard to say if it's just random occurrences) Definitly got mixed with Red City at some point though.

Hopefully someone can find it!
Shit, my hunt continues…
My best guess is I’ll have to go through every VoD where Red City was played.
Worst part is I 100% know this banter will not be quite as funny, or nearly as funny as in my memory if I do find it
I've been long trying to find a very early VOD (I think from one of the first three open GSLs) where a zerg player made an evolutionary pit instead of a spawning pool early on and (from my memory) Tastosis kept trying to rationalize it

I loved when they told the story (Don't need the clip) about GOM making a tribute video for them as part of the 20-year celebration and asked them to explain some of their running jokes and they were like "oh, these aren't actually funny, we're just garbage people who crack ourselves up." The example they gave was GOM asking them to explain the "GET YOUR BOATS!" joke/meme.
I never actually got to see the English cast of this (NesTea vs TAiLS) because I was there live (had a meeting that day if I remember correctly) and I remember the watching the DT build winning the game backstage; think I was either DoA or Moletrap. Pretty funny to look back at it now with all that hype but then NesTea just ends up losing. I really miss the GSTL. It really was something special in the early days, before Proleague.
