Tasteless: “I had no idea they could choose colors.” Also tasteless months ago in the previous ASL: * has full conversation with Artosis about how flash chooses his color as random because the race distribution is not equal 😂
Damn, good memory. Now that you've said that i vividly remember Tasteless and Artosis had a lenghty discussion about certain colours giving certain race a higher chance to roll when Randoming. Good call !
I gotta imagine there are days Tasteless hasn't had his coffee yet or something and Artosis starts going on about something minute like what color someone chose and Tasteless is just like "oh really? I had no idea..."
Can you explain how color affects random race distribution? I'm really interested in that, I'm so sad Flash isn't still playing random, that was the best thing to happen to ASL in awhile.
971 Seconds = 16.1833 Minutes = 16 Minutes and 11 Seconds = The approximate amount of actual BW gameplay in this 59:23 video. Fantastic. I love you, Nick.
The best part of this was the banter at the end. On a side note, the audio was really great this time. Both Artosis and Tasteless were well audible over the game sound without being too loud. I hope they'll keep it like this.
If this was pro wrestling Mini's teammate would be distracting the ref while Mini sneaks up behind Best and brains him with a folding chair. That heel expression on his face at the end was unintentionally brilliant.
Afreeca, thank you for everything you do. I am glad Tastosis still got to cast. I have one suggestion, though. Maybe include an hour of a blank screen at the end of the video so we are not spoiled by the time? Please let me know if anyone reads this and can pass on the word, or I'll be tempted to e-mail it to one of you guys :)
Pretty much the worst series I've ever seen in any season of ASL. Can't really blame someone for cheesing when it turns out to be this effective, but it sure didn't make for a very interesting watch. What a waste.
@@corpus1 Bisu vrs Snow was also a short ass whipping. I guess SLIGHTLY more of a fight by Bisu. In general, PvP and ZvZ gets one sided very quick. I think Best put up a much better fight against Snow last season but still lost... unless it was another protoss, but I think I remember it was Best.
@@corpus1 Hard disagree for me, this was much more interesting than a lot of the ro24 matches. First game was very exciting with the somewhat unorthodox cheese right out of the gate that was nonetheless executed perfectly, second game had the perfectly mirrored builds and perfectly mirrored army comps (fairly strange ones at that!), running past each other and hitting each others bases, the reaver play.. hoo boy :D Third game was just standard cheese, and it was easy to figure out that Best was doomed, but it still had its high moments. The match was short and sweet fmpov, and the dorky interview segments and Tastosis commentary make it even better. TY guys for delivering this tourney to us in all its glory
@@corpus1 Agree -- a bit of cheese is nice when it goes both ways, and its hard fought and all. But full one-sided BO5s that are just cheese matches over in 5 mins.. boring.. not what we wanna see. Still, can't blame him, as you said.
Spoiler ahead In the second game, I wish Tastosis highlighted Mini's foresight to create two pylons at the top of the map and the probe at 1oclock. On top of that, he also kept his mineral count high throughout the fight for scarabs + extra buildings. Mini knew well in advanced that this could turn into a base trade game, and the two pylons buy him a lot of time.
@@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY A decent number of Koreans watch the English cast because the style of commentary is very different, some Koreans prefer the more chill atmosphere of the Tastosis cast.
I knew the results (Not who won, But the map score) by the VOD length alone. Maybe they should start adding extra time at the end of the videos to avoid this happening. To help fans avoid this issue.
@@mattiasastrom8419 I completely agree. After game 1 I knew everything but the builds. So I lost most of my interest. Which sucks because all they need is a black screen for awhile after the show end. They don’t need to fill that time with content.
I might be wrong, but I believe they can't because of the CZcams algorithms? If you had each match as three hours and had two hours of blank space no one watched, then the monetization would be less. At least, that's what I vaguely remember someone saying once. Could be wrong though! :)
@@darthtater6457 Your kinda right. It’s not directly about monetization but optimization of how the videos show up in peoples feeds though. If so much of a video isn’t ‘watched’ - IE, people leave halfway through because the rest is filler, then the back end algorithm is less likely to show videos like that to the same and other people. It ‘shows that people are uninterested in the full content’ and will instead show different content that is being fully viewed. Where that then ties into monetization is if your videos arn’t being shows to people, your getting less views, and etc etc.
I just finished watching the ASL Season 10 and I like Tastosis' entertaining and lively casting! Support❤️ Rooting for more seasons of ASL and you guys
18:57 Best’s own probe blocks the dragoon. Painful way to lose. I don’t know why he didn’t keep kiting to the north against the zealots. He moved it back into traffic and got splattered
I've always watched StarCraft with the volume on very low and Closed Captions, lately the videos have been missing them but boy am I hyped to see when they're available! (At this point I can tell if Tastosis is casting just by the CC's haha)
Oh man, this is hard to watch. I am color blind and I can't see the difference between the units on the first two games. (and maybe some of the later one.) I understand tastosis does not control it.
Broodwar at its finest Mini played in this ro8 slaying a nerd by the looks of it. Gonna follow up on rewatching this series a couple of times; @Taseteless.
Download 'Anticipation' for Chrome. It hides the progress bar and video length, so makes watching the ASL more enjoyable. It's not perfect, but it's the best plugin / extension I've found which prevents spoilers.
I need to find a plugin that hides the CZcams video duration. When a PvP best of 5 is 59 minutes long, the winner of the first match basically spoils the video lol
I use 'Anticipation' for Chrome. It makes watching ASL vods much better as it hides the progress bar and video length. It's not perfect, but it's the best one I've found so far.
You guys really need to add a buffer 1 or 2 hours of blank video at the end in order to prevent spoiler. It’s easy to deduce who’ll win from the remaining time

very glad they still go in blind and record live. the flubs and miss-timing at the start is so charming!
Honestly it's almost as good as them casting live.

The double pylon gateway block was really just the cherry on top of this beating.
13:55 - I think that's the first time I've heard Tasteless speak Korean lol
Best never fails to disappoint
He's probably the best at it!
Yeah, every single season, holy cow.
and casters wonder why he hasn't win any title ... xD
Those games were hilarious.
10:42 Tastosis

Jaedong went 4 pool, 4 games in a row against flash. It was either the final OSL or MSL. I forget which.
You may not like it, but this is what peak Protoss looks like.
I certainly don't like it! xD

At 44:30, the Kakaru scouted the pylon. But then when the Kakaru met Best's probe at 45:42, it didn't even have the courtesy to tell warn him.

Surely there are addons or programs you can use?
Tastosis talks trash about short matches but I like these micro intense cheese matches.
It wasn't a bad PvP Best just got crushed. All of the games were entertaining though. I get wanting more content but less doesn't mean it was bad.
Man, Mini was strong in this matchup against Best. He thought one or two steps ahead of Best.
Best lookin real strong with the multi tasking especially game 2, insane.

Got the results for this one spoiled to me earlier on. Seeing how it went though makes me a little less mad.
video length is very worrying
You should add 30 extra minuts, the duration of the video spoils the result XD
Nice games!
but amazing
I know that face at 14:11. My man is rolling.
Wow, Mini's micro is incredible.
Mini had to take a quick dump, so he couldn't waste time in a BO5
16:59 of total gameplay. insane!!!
regarding the pylon blocking dragoon issue, can you send probes to block the dragoon exit so it comes out free outside the pylons?
interesting idea - but he did need to fight with his probes
According to tasteless nexus first is a "weird build"
Does anyone know where I can find that crane shirt?
