Who is our new nerd messiah to lead us to diamond league then?

To reach diamond, all you gotta do is have passion for the game. In order to get lots of passion, watch videos of Tasteless casting games!

 

[AdventureRacing]

Carriers got a bufffff, dont need to face the unit to launch the interceptors anymore

Oh fuck yeah, more carriers coming up . Time to carrier my way into masters.

Play zerg?

 

[Zzoram]

Jangbi just did a PvZ scout rush into win.

His scout got 4 drone kills lolol.



He's already won Broodwar so I guess he was kinda dicking around in BW PL and somehow won.

Yeah I was watching that to. I nearly loled when I saw he was doing a 1 base scout build.

How has Jangbi looked at SC2? I haven't seen him play

also was Flash at the OSL last night? I saw a lot of classic/current players on stage but don't remember seeing him. I'd imagine he was rather bummed, naturally

I'm pretty sure Jangbi is one of the better Kespa players at this point.

 

[Ashhong]

Wtf is it with this surge with old new members? Dear god...

You come back crawling...

 

[Holden]

Panda, you got some shit against france?

 

[FoxSpirit]

What, La vache qui rit makes good stuff.

 

[Yoshichan]

What's going on?

 

[K-19]

Infestors are cute.

 

[Yoshichan]

Infestors should spit out infested terran when you A-move.

That is genius!

We should totally sign up for the balance team recruitment :3

battlecruisers should lose energy when it attacks.

 

[Yoshichan]

Terran doesn't need more buffs and that's clearly a buff. High templars wouldn't be able to feedback them anymore!

 

[K-19]

battlecruisers should lose energy when it attacks.

They shouldn't exist anymore.

Damn it is so pleasant to see a good Protoss playing, but God this race is evrything but funny to play

 

[fanboi]

Queens should be able to be mounted by an Ultralisk and when the queen give birth they release the GRACKEN

 

[Pandaman]

all terran abilities should be on a cooldown and have no energy.

Excellent! Thanks man!

So people are shitting on Day9 for what reasons, exactly?

The only issue I've got with the guy is that he's not a good caster. What he describes in 10 minutes, Artosis could explain in 10 seconds.

But that's pretty much it. I don't have anything personal against him.

 

[Pandaman]

So people are shitting on Day9 for what reasons, exactly?

doesn't know the game, has forgone any regular attempts at serious analysis in the daily and he gets a lot of casting work because 'he's day9'.

 

[Fuchsdh]

Ok then, what are y'all's picks for good casters (aside from Artosis)?

I honestly don't watch that many casted games and I find Day9 much less dull than Wheat or HD, less annoying than Husky, etc, so I don't really know how many people are out doing it.

I like the Khaldor + Wolf and the Tastosis-combo.

And djwheat isn't bad either.

God-tier: Tastosis
Good-tier: Khaldor, Apollo, Wolf
Mid-tier: djwheat, TLO
Bottom-tier: Day9
Shit-tier: Totalbiscuit, Husky

edit: Added TLO to the list ♥

 

[AdventureRacing]

Tastosis is the best. Khaldor + apollo/wolf is also good. Bitterdam is also good imo. I actually think incontrol is a great caster, his work with Khaldor in particular was really fun. I've probably enjoyed some of his casts more than any besides tastosis.

 

[Yoshichan]

Oh, I forgot about TLO! I think he's an okay caster :3

 

[AdventureRacing]

Yeah TLO is good. Also grubby has really grown on me, i quite like him now.

 

[Corran Horn]

So people are shitting on Day9 for what reasons, exactly?

He is painted as this very analytical caster of sc2 yet anyone who knows the game well enough knows he isn't that. Not sure how much of that is his fault with his branding of day9 or the community expectations from the old days.

 

[Pandaman]

luna tier: bitterdam, artosis
pegasus tier: khaldor, wolf, apollo, catspajamas
unicorn tier: frodan, totalbiscuit, incontrol
dirt pony tier: husky, orb, JP, dywheat, day9
applejack tier: doa, moletrap, tasteless, kellymilkies, painuser

 

[Zzoram]

All the pro gamers recognize Artosis to be the best analytical caster, and Tastetosis to be a great combo because they are funny and they were the pioneers of casting.

 

[Yoshichan]

Panda, why do you think Luna is the best pony?

 

[Pancakes]

Panda, why do you think Luna is the best pony?

Because she stands against the evil sun tyrant.

 

[Pandaman]

Panda, why do you think Luna is the best pony?

She stands against the tyranny of Celestia's solar empire.

 

[Yoshichan]

But I always thought you were against the good guys ._.

 

[Pandaman]

But I always thought you were against the good guys ._.

Why would you think that? i always play the good guys. thats why i picked zerg.

 

[Yoshichan]

Mengsk never represented terran... Terran are the good guys, zerg are bad guys, protoss are netural ._.

Protoss diplomacy? GLASS THEIR HOMEWORLDS!

 

[Pandaman]

Mengsk never represented terran... Terran are the good guys, zerg are bad guys, protoss are netural ._.

whose gonna be the ones putting mengsk down? oh right, the zerg.
who stopped the ued? oh right, the zerg.
who stopped the formation of a second overmind? oh yeah, the zerg.
who knew about and was trying to stop the hybrids since day 1? oh yeah, the zerg.
who put down the xel naga in the first place? zerg again!

 

[Yoshichan]

Let's continue this when HotS comes out.

besides, celestia is billed as the 'good guy'; you just have to look deeper to truly appreciate the horror of her rule.

Actual casters? Artosis, Apollo, Rotterdam. Khaldor improved a lot. Wolf is good too.
Unsuccessful players turned casters? TLO, Grubby, EG.

Well maybe not Grubby. He can be a pretty good player.

Apollo and Artosis are by far the best casters currently.

They can cast with anyone without too much fraction and they actually know and play the game, not pretending to be some high level analytical caster while doing nothing but funday Mondays and monobattles.

Rotterdam is great as well, Bitter, not so much.

 

[Corran Horn]

Fix FF7 yoshi.

An image of day9 doing what he does best? Awesome.
