Absolutely nothing but love for Artosis, he's got a wife and kids and you gotta do whats best for you and your family. Not everybody can be a sexy chunky bachelor forever like Tasteless. | ||

The games are what matters to me more then the casters, obviously Tasteosis is untouchable but hey, I'm not going to stop watching high level Starcraft just because of one caster lol I mean, Starcraft is just too good for that. Absolutely nothing but love for Artosis, he's got a wife and kids and you gotta do whats best for you and your family. Not everybody can be a sexy chunky bachelor forever like Tasteless. The problem is Tasteless doesn't want to pair with anyone else except Artosis for the future project. I guess letting foreign talents to pair with State is tolerable but it depends whether they want to stay in Korea for at least one or two years ahead. Thinking Nate because he has good humour and may be suitable to replace Tasteless. Another one is ZG, | ||

Artosis and to a lesser degree Tasteless literally competed at close to the highest level at the beginning of SC2 and at least Artosis remained incredibly knowledgeable about the game up to this date. He is the best analytical sc2 caster by far and this is pretty much commonly agreed upon so I really have to idea WTF you are talking about. Both would woop yo a$$ in a ladder match lmao. Tasteless lost his edge on game knowledge a while ago I'll agree but he's mostly there for the play-by-play and his personality anyway and most people are fine with this too. GOAT casting duo in esports history peroid sorry | ||

However, Stateless was not bad at all either, fresh and more enthusiastic to my ears.

Simply not true. Even if we don't want to put Lambo and Harstem in the batch (which are definitely the top ones as analytical), I think Rotterdam is the best in analytical, PiG is also pretty good the few times he casts still. Anyway all of them surpass Artosis by a big amount. The number of wrong calls in GSL are super high. | ||

You're wrong about Artosis and Tasteless not playing the game, which is probably why you're confused at why they're allowed to cast top tournaments. Anyways, I always appreciated Artosis's commentary and analysis, and he + Tasteless will always be my favorite casting archon. I'm glad to hear they'll continue to do projects together, and Tasteless is super versatile so I'm confident that he'll mesh well with just about any other caster (I'm being reminded of Day[9] Daily #100, where Day[9] talked about how Tasteless seamlessly took the "supporting" role of secondary commentator for his first cast ever, after losing in a BW tournament, even though the other caster didn't actually know what was going on). I'm excited to see who'll be working with Tasteless next! | ||

The loss of Tastosis charisma will impact potential new audience - not that it's saying much at this point. | ||

I also liked NoRegret's casting at times, especially when it came to Zerg matchups | ||

I haven't watched gsl since then. I'd usually watch the finals of a season at least, but after I came back and the ladder was dead just killed my desire to watch it. | ||

I may be alone in this, but I think Artosis and Tasteless together were actually less enjoyable than apart, at least in the last few years. Like, imagine a television series on its twelfth season. I don't know that I'd say that they're worse than they were in 2010, I think I'm just too familiar with their material by now. | ||

GOAT casting duo in esports history peroid sorry link an account then. I stand by what I say, artosis is clueless about the game because he never plays it. also, hello we talk about sc2. edit: link artosis ladder account and we shall see how good he was/is. | ||
