"Dead gaem" maybe?
The most serious Artosis pylon was in Texas. Their whole grid came down during a storm.
you pronouncing IEM wrong every video unironically
make a video on the retard magnet next
oh man, the tasteless pylon that follows the artosis pylon is sooo wholesome. it just shows how much artosis and tastless support each other. the strongest bromance i know so far
shame about Artosis leaving Korea, I hope Tasteless doesn't quit casting gsl without his buddy
@@Biskawow they said they're gonna keep casting, just remotely. internet.
@@oldfrend I thought Tasteless said "maybe"
@@Biskawow they will continue casting ASL remotely together. They offered GSL casting together via remote. But no answer so far
@@Kionage I'm worried since I think GSL with Noregret and Tasteless for example would be just fine, but Tasteless said he doesnt want to cast without Artosis. Maybe its just a bargaining chip.
i love how often i've heard "an artosis pylon is a pylon that's so efficient you don't need a second one"
The chills when he said and "That's alright, it's got the Tasteless pylon to back it up". What a moment of acceptance and reality that Tastosis is really the best duo out there in the casting universe.
I watched that live on stream and was like laughing for minutes! Good old SC2 days... I now watch ASL with Tastosis casting!
The best thing to come out of the artosis pylon meme
Monte and Doa better during ogn lol
The fact that he said, "it's not my fault" to the Artosis pylon is hilarious. Classic Artosis
The meme wouldn't be nearly as funny if Artosis wasn't still salty about it
Artosis is self-aware when he makes jokes like that. He knows he goofed but he's making light of it is all
the tasteless pylon that backs up the artosis pylon is just so wholesome i love it :D
I know right!
I love how the crowd cheered when Artosis called it an Artosis pylon himself :D
I remember the original manual which came with SC1 showed a pylon powering multiple buildings saying "This is bad" and it also showed a column of pylons with buildings on either side of it saying "This is good" so really Artosis had no excuse.
HAHAH The original manual of SC1 saying "this is bad" hahaha man this is the best comment ever
What makes the Artosis pylon so funny is how personally he took it. It just cracks me up that he actually felt it was a mark of shame, because that's how seriously he takes the game. I mean, I get it--he was a pro, and prides himself on his skill to some extent. But still... I'd love to have a pylon named after me. 🤣
love the fact you included the legendary Tasteless pylon
Rest In peace iNcontrol and all his pylons. Gone but not forgotten.
inControl will return as an Immortal ...
iNcontroL*
@@AntithesisDCLXVI Thanks. :)
We will miss him always.
I love the fact that of all the people, IdrA was the one inventing the term. He unironically was less saulty about loosing to a mirage army than artosis was for a while about that pylon.
My god that is still hilarious to this day! Go Huk!
The partnership between the Artosis Pylon and the Tasteless Pylon says a lot about our modern society. Truly a philosophical point for the ages.
yesterday my whole city electricity went for 3 hours. i guess it was artosis power plant.
Bruh Khaldor just grilling it out of him in that cast lmao
I can imagine the pain in Artosis' expression as he forces himself to remain cool about it
"I like how you tried to name it an incontrol pylon" 🤣
When a building in an ageless game like SC2 is named after you, for whatever reason, you don't dodge it. You own it like one of your children.
Of course the second pylon is a Tasteless pylon as it should be.
The Casting Archon would ALWAYS demand a second pylon.
It Is Known.
Artosis didn't have to embarrassed about it. it's just a wholesome sc2 moment.
and love your content man keep it up.
Thanks!

props to artosis for owning it. It clearly bothered him at first but he was still able to look past it and allow the meme to flow
That last clip is so wholesome. Artosis accepting the meme _and_ coining the Tasteless pylon to represent how his bestie supports him
Of course IdrA “the legend” would have coined a whole new meme out of slight saltiness, what a lad
I think Artosis fighting it at first may have cemented the term forever. Although I do like terms like that. Like in AoE where we have the DauT castle. Dude is still an amazing player, even if there the term is definitely not comming from a one off occurance.
actually the most amazing part in this vid for me was how Leenock's Zergling assault continued relentlessly on for like a minute and a half.
Like... just HOW MANY ZERGLINGS WERE THOSE? :O
They just didn't die, man... :O
Ive seen Artosis cry on stream just because of the sheer stress of the game. He's got so much passion and just goes so hard... He actually cried on stream cuz the game wasn't going the way he wanted. Not like weeping but like welling up and voice breaking lol
Yeah he's so invested into SC
@@EsportsStoryteller A hero to all who still enjoy the ladder. #BigPassionPylon
I got matched with Artosis back in the early days of Heroes of the Storm. Messaged him after asking if he was the guy with the pylon named after him
Lol
Thank you for these videos, brings me back to the good old days.
I need a Tasteless pylon.
The fact he denied it being Artosis pylon. Don't worry tasteless pylon got him backed up 🤣🤣
He accepted his fate xD
One day you'll remember you started with starcraft 2. What an amazing channel idea, pls expand it. I love sc2 and all of these bring a smile to my face
Thanks!
Artosis pylon must be the most used sc2 meme ever
can't believe i've never seen the tastosis pylon clip before. just wanna brohug every one of those probes after seeing that.
When even his brother is calling it an Arthosispylon. 😆
This really sends me back to the good old days, great content.
Keep it up 👍
Thanks!
Not sure if you still follow the scene, but Pig is probably the best SC2 content creator of them all. This man is a true Gem in the scene and he does it all. Constantly hat the top pros play and teach in it own content, has tons of educational content always being updated, records his coaching sessions, and is probably the best Caster out of anyone given his dirty sailor mouth and its a riot to watch. czcams.com/users/PiGCasts, czcams.com/users/PiGRandom
tasteless pylon to back it up! I forgot that; but so wholesome
Man, after katowice 2023 I've been watching your videos soo much. SC2 is such a special game
Really loving these SC2 series! Thanks for the content!
Thanks!
The most used phrase in StarCraft 2 casting is explaining the importance of high ground with star wars
I knew about the Artosis Pylon, but I feel out of SC2 a long time ago. Seeing the Tasteless Plyon to back it up was so damn wholesome. So is there any official way to use "Tasteless Pylon"? Does it just mean any back up Pylon, or does it refer to when an Artosis Pylon has another Pylon come up just in time to keep structures powered?
I think it's any pylon that was placed for the sole purpose of providing backup power to buildings
Example: 4 gates are powered by an artosis pylon. You place another pylon next to all of those - that's the tasteless pylon
@@boltstrikes429 ty for the explanation
Just found the channel and loving the sc2 content, keep it up man!
Thanks!
man you need more videos! i just found your channel yesterday and watched it all now i'm out of content! good shit
Thanks! I try posting once a day or once per 2 days :)
Love that you put so much effort into each video
Thanks!
great coverage at these gems, keep up the good work.
Thanks!
oh man NASL, i remember the first season's final event had so many delays, i was up till like 4am or so in the UK waiting for it to start
Idra was hilarious he reminds me of how angry I used to be when playing cod mw2
great stuff thank you so much!
Thanks for the explanation ! Quite interesting video !
Love the content, keep it up!
Thanks!
A good way to cap a video. LiquidHerO will forever be my favorite player
I remember he was talking about that kind of pylon before his incident. If my memory serves me well he invented the term one day, when he said something like "let's call this Artosis pylon" trying to explain the significance of this danger, during a casting. That's probably why Idra used the term. The fact that he did the same mistake it's pure irony.
Amazing effort you put in these videos man!
Thanks!
Ever since that match I actually developed a habit of backing up my pylons, and I actually hear the caster's voices in the back of my head.
since that day something changes in artosis
I love this term xD Also great channel BTW!!
Thanks!
I love the Tasteless pylon following it up :D
And I thought I already knew all about the artosis pylon lol
for me, sean plott aka. day9 kind of "coined it" and the circle completes by him being the brother of tasteless.
I think the word you are looking for is "popularised", but yes, I think you are right about Day9.
This is the greatest video. You won CZcams
Thanks
Love this. Thanks!
Thanks!
I'm gonna go tell my wife she's my Tasteless pylon.
"its okay, It got a tasteless pylon to back it up, GG " so wholesome
6 and 1/2 mins of epic right there
I love how he almost speedran through all the 5 stages of grief doubling down on denial, but quickly jumping to acceptance
I'm SlowlyFalling in love with this channel.
Great video
Thanks!
Respect for the research to pull this video together.
InControl pylon was after years of Artosis pylon and was just those two continuing their bants imo
Brotosis is just unchanging, ain't he?
Finally I understand what casters mean!
I would love a video about Aphrodite, her career and game vs Serral as well as a bit about the "woman SC2 league".
Good idea!
So what it boils down to is...he must construct additional pylons
yes, i'm curious about this also.
I was there for the first Artois Pylon.
Love your videos! You should do a video for the special class. MorroW
Thanks! Yeah, morroW was an interesting player
And IIRC the Rotti Pylon is superfluous one.
hah, I thought it was InControl that coined that term, I didn't realize it was actually Idra while casting with him.
Artosis, just call it an Atlas pylon.
Really, even if it came about as a mistake (and probably an embarrassing one) Artosis now has an impact in the game and franchise that no other player or caster will have. Way down the road whenever SC3 happens, it’s still probably going to be called an artosis pylon.
With how long he and Tasteless were a centeral pillar of the StarCraft pro scene, I like that they have their names immortalized in the games lingo.
Do more videos about Artosis if possible.
Perhaps I'll cover their duo :)
iNcontroL is no longer with us, so if he try call it the iNcontroL pylon again now then that would be really Tasteless
So thats why he says " we need more artosis pylon " I thought that's what the protoss called pylons
Its the modern Achilles Heel
Artosis is a cool fella
such nostalgia 😀
Is this why he has a CZcams series named The Pylon Show ?
I'm not sure, but it can be a reference.
Obviously, Artosis is single pylon surounding by other guests like protoss structures during the show.
I coulda sworn this was a thing before SC2... ah well.
this is the true reason RT refuses to swap to Protoss in BW
this video made me subscribe to your channel,
Thanks!
I remember a clip of Day9 talking about the opposite of an artosis pylon being a *tournament name* pylon, and then dying of laughter. But I can't find it anywhere.
czcams.com/video/AC4KoDDrN7s/video.html 2:40 here
Oh so that the joke that Tasteless and Artosis talking about
This is your best cast so far. I love it! 😅 Lets see Day[9]
you should talk about when cheese fails and lagtv
After this: "I have most powered buildings" - Artosis
So, as we see its true that loosed games make us stronger!
Do one for mvp. Trying to remember other notable happenings in sc2 and other memes. Incontrol and DTs. The whole Mia rose pornstar saga lmao. Thinking back now sc2 scene was wild at times.
PogChamp
Now do another video explaining what tasteless pylon is
There was a bit about it in this video
Say it "put it down".
i guess you'd call that a wcg champion pylon! ooooooooooooooooooh!
I miss InControl =(
DauT Castle next? ^^
Perhaps
the fact that sounds like some sort of decease sure din't helped
incontrol
So funny x'D
