If GSL is continued the way it was I will still be watching as much as possible. Whoever will cast instead of Artosis has big shoes to fill but will do so without a doubt

Been watching (Korean) Starcraft for 15+ years. There's nothing that will change that.

If they do anything like they are doing with Brood War, then I'll be watching them a lot less. I'm happy that the duo still casts Brood War, but because of the delay in released vods, I'm unable to stay unspoiled from results for that long. If they do that with SC2, then I'll unfortunately be unable to watch them.

Nothing will ever capture the magic of these two guys, so if an independent stream pops up, it will need to be immensely analytical. It's a huge reason why Scan and Nyoken are doing so well given the competition.

I will watch the same amount: I mostly watch GSL because it interests me and the casting is a nice bonus, the games are the main treat.
However if ESL deals go on but there is no more GSL (so probably no more KR scene at all) I will probably watch far less sc2, the KR scene is simply the best content imho.

Whoever has to follow-up is gonna have a very tough time as the synergy between Artosis and Tasteless made for such an insanely unique casting experience I never even minded them going off-topic for longer periods because it just vibed perfectly with my sense of humor, so I highly doubt whatever comes next will be even close.

Sure, but my attitude will be super supportive no matter the combo that ends up on stage. Growth and practice time should be given.

I'll definitely give the next duo a shot, but it'll depend on them finding their own dynamic.

The reason I'd stop watching would be if military returnees stop and we end up with a tiny pool of top competitors, which is why I already don't watch much non Korean stuff.

Of course, being supportive should be a given, but while I don't exactly know if there's still any negotiating going on regarding Artosis continuing to cast online I still have a glimmer of hope left that this might not actually be the end of the casting archon in GSL.

True. I don't want to waste time watching honorable macro fight without any variation from both player. Also, doing cheesy things, making proxies and timing pushes make the series much more colorful.

Tasteless state turn out to be a nice combo. I will miss Artosis, but we need to move on as well.

I m not watching it that often anymore though

I will still be watching, its the most prestigious tournament in SC2. I hope more foreigners can compete if it carries on next year. Reynor bombing out was a big disappointment this season.

I wish I could say it won't affect my GSL viewing but I know it will.

I just won't have the same desire to turn it on no matter who is playing anymore. If it's a group or a match up I don't want to see, if Tastetosis isn't there to make my night then I'll probably just turn the stream off.

I'll give it an effort. But I just don't see it being the same.

Quite a bit less I think at the very least I don't see myself waking up to watch matches live very much without Tastosis. I'll probably still seek out highlights but without them casting I feel much less incentive to risk sitting through a tepid set of matches
I think it's finally time to admit it might not be the year of Pet

Same, especially the lower level matches like for example Keen vs Armani (or similar) I honestly only watched because of Tastosis

Look at those 4 who are saying they'd watch a lot more GSL if he left. The true Artosis haters.

At first I'm not sure it'd decrease much. I suppose it depends on who takes their place. But I can see it going down over time if the cast quality went down substantially. Sort of like how I often wait for the Tastosis recasts of ASL. Plus I can just watch whenever and not worry about watching live, like I often do with GSL.
