@@denesolah1328I'd have to re-watch the games to be sure, but I didn't think he made any big mistakes. Rather some unfortunate timings and misjudgments (which happen to pros all the time).

@@Sicktoid I agree maybe with an easier group he could have gotten the 2nd spot but this really was a tough pool. There was no easy games here and somebody had to lose
@@Sicktoid idk which pro dont rally their wraith over a turret other than him but alright🤣😂 also you can hear scans so he could have payed more attention.. it was a tough group for him but getting beaten by sakk theres no excuses.. i feel like you all just hype him up cause of artosis.. i mean theres noone talking bout other terrans at his level like speed who just got out of a group thats maybe even harder beating best(the 2nd greatest pvt player rn)
he gave very respectable games. He even outsmarted mini slightly with his build and handling of the initial pressure, he was in a pretty good spot, but then mini out-micro'd the sh*t out of him lol, it was pretty disgusting. Not a lot of players can turn a "meh" position into a "winning by a landslide" position that quickly with just micro, especially against another pro

Guys a BIG improvement for the translated sync rly nice to see. Last video the English translation started before the Korean started and yes it's prerecorded but t hearing a translation before the real talking starts felt off so much better this time ! Big plus
I gotta say, I watched the SSL cast of this one while it was live and sorely missed your commentary Artosis. Lesson learned, wait for the Tastosis VODs :)
Oh okay! So Scan REALLY has been in ASL before. I thought Artosis was just mistaken whenever he says that Scan has been in ASL before. Funny, I don't remember him in Season 11.
I've commented this before, but some of the race logos are from the SC1 manual! The Terran logo is the Alpha Squadron's logo led by General Edmund Duke (p.48).
I'm disappointed that Artosis didn't make a comment on Mini saying in the interview that 12 Nexus (nexus first) is the "best build, the most suitable build".
Yeah I thought that comment was weird too. He is consistent in that he generally advances pretty far, but from game to game he is anything but consistent lol. His games today ranged from "looks like an unkillable god" to "looks like a b-ranker"
Im not 100% certain but, Artosis is the one recording and will Get his own webcam in good quality. Tasteless has to stream his webcam vod to Artosis so it might Get a little scuffed when received from a 3rd party app.
@@invisiblemenproduction why not record it seperately and do that in post then? I think the true reason is that Tasteless is just getting heated for Starcraft creating steam that blurs the lenses. Artosis just freezes everything around him with his cold terran heart, so it's no issue for him.
Does anyone know if there's an official playlist for the tournament? There's a lot of the songs played throughout that I would like to know the name of. eg. the song in the background at 1:31:45 - 1:33:55
oooof that first game of scan vs mini so painful , scan played so well , but after the first 2 rush and 1st shuttle deflects , everything went just barely wrong for scan XD
Can you please tell production to align players names with colors and starting locations? In mirror matches its sometimes confusing to tell who is who.
Game 2 was so close with that bust. Slightly better targeting on the goons towards the end of the fight and ssak has it, I think. Either way, I feel like ssak does this a lot, and you can tell Bisu thought the same thing since he went the safest build he could go, pretty much.
woa woa woa, I didn´t get the memo... why snow is not in the players list? did he not qualified or he did not wanted to play this SSL? Thanks for your eng casting. Greatings from México
I would have liked to have seen ssak use the dropship to do a sneaky expand, top left or top right with 4-5 scvs. A few to wall the ramp, one for a cc and another for turrets instead of cluttering the main with depots. I think it would have helped his economy greatly and helped him topple the protoss. And of course, finally, some good f**king bishop wraith meta.
I've got my chills locked and loaded.
10:06 Tastosis
15:49 Mini vs. Scan
36:55 Bisu vs. Ssak
51:45 Winners
1:12:23 Losers
1:40:24 Final
I hope Tasteless gets progressively more and more blurry as the tournament goes on until, on finals day, he's just a completely indistinct blob.
Is he unlocking a secret dark templar upgrade?
Spoiler: Tasteless is still blurry in group B
Must be a Terran editor phasing him from reality slowly as we go through the season
I wouldn't have it any other way ❤
This is so funny thank you lol
incoming projectiles have a +5% miss chance
He's actually underneath an Arbiter
Before I watch, LET'S GO SCAN WE LOVE YOU
Definitely it was before you watched it xD

I feel like he played really well too, but this group was just really tough. Definitely hoping to see him back next season.
@@Sicktoid really though? he got beaten by sakk and outplayed lol how r u saying he played well

1:01:58 that is 13 Probes with one Scarab.
I was going to like your comment but it's at 13 so here's a like 👍

A legendary hit.
Scan making SSL = very cool

Oh my God there's so much SC:BW
I’m fan girling so hard right now
Dying at the "He brought me here" response - "We know, thank you very much" lmao

chills overload
“Scan is the top English-speaking player”
In fairness to Jaedong tho, he does know how to swear in English lmao
He knows the most important English BW phrase: "FOOKING PROTOSS"
It isn't ASL(SSL) until Bisu comes marching in to the Black Parade.
Bisu is even more of a god for that
I don't know what that means but I agree!
He's really wanting to bring his old glory back, as it was the song that played when he won the legendary MSL finals against savior
He really knows how to appeal to all us 30-40 years olds
@@markmuller7962 his intro song

I LOVE that all their names are 4 letters. This should be a regulation at this point.
9 Seconds ago? The timing!
Ya know your commentary is 🔥 when it’s included in the Title
I deadass only watch tastosis games ngl.
They are the best ever duo to cast.
As always, ty TASTOSIS for giving us the best e-sports casting in the whole world, we love you guys!
That's me at 17:33 :3

Commenting for the algo, LONG LIVE SSL
More SSL for my day, thank you!
LET'S GO SCAN!
I'm getting chills just seeing the upload
someone tell me how on earth two reavers fit in that tiny shuttle
They wind on themselves like pill-bugs.
very carefully
Oh okay! So Scan REALLY has been in ASL before. I thought Artosis was just mistaken whenever he says that Scan has been in ASL before. Funny, I don't remember him in Season 11.
You doubted artosis but you were wrong? Wow you must be guy in the chat
@@MichaelSotoCE right typical guy in chat is wrong and won't look sth up
Getting my chills from the fridge ready for this game
I've commented this before, but some of the race logos are from the SC1 manual! The Terran logo is the Alpha Squadron's logo led by General Edmund Duke (p.48).
Getting chills in anticipation of Arty's favourite player Light getting banged out in group E
I'm disappointed that Artosis didn't make a comment on Mini saying in the interview that 12 Nexus (nexus first) is the "best build, the most suitable build".
Damn, Tasteless got blurry af, hope he recovers
10:36 it's weird to think that Mini is consistent, given how on the edge his builds are. Goes to show that appearances are deceptive.
Yeah I thought that comment was weird too. He is consistent in that he generally advances pretty far, but from game to game he is anything but consistent lol. His games today ranged from "looks like an unkillable god" to "looks like a b-ranker"
No spoiler but game 1 of group c is legendary, the first of its kind in asl history, so make sure to check it out
I am looking forward to their reaction tomorrow… that game sank my heart when I saw it earlier…
HAHAHA it did not disappoint lol
I wonder if there's something up with Tasteless's webcam lol; he's not out of focus on his streams
Im not 100% certain but, Artosis is the one recording and will Get his own webcam in good quality. Tasteless has to stream his webcam vod to Artosis so it might Get a little scuffed when received from a 3rd party app.

@@dr_booze6106 They try to get the vods out asap and doing work in post would slow the release down. ill take fast VODS for 3min of blurry tasteless
Awesome cast. I'm so glad this is back.
Well played, Scan! I will keep cheering you on!
Lads I’m gonna say something controversial but I love Starcraft
Like, proper love?
Good enough for a poke!
One-sided relationship
scan clumping those tanks was rough
I've got a serious case of CHILLS right now
STAR YEA! LETS GO, FIGHTING
Scannnnn❤
Always rooting for our boy Scan, great to see him back on th ebig stage
This is what we all need rn
I had no idea Scan is playing. This is awesme!
The Beesuit❤
what is this song that plays before every match?
it's got my attention
wow scan aged so much since i last saw him in 2021 that i didnt even recognize him, meanwhile mini feels like he hasnt aged a bit
Let's go!!
the host is a 10, gosh dang!
SCAN FIGHTING!
Does anyone know if there's an official playlist for the tournament? There's a lot of the songs played throughout that I would like to know the name of.
eg. the song in the background at 1:31:45 - 1:33:55
Chills, literally…
oooof that first game of scan vs mini so painful , scan played so well , but after the first 2 rush and 1st shuttle deflects , everything went just barely wrong for scan XD
Revers dropping in out of shuttle and mutalisk's glaves seem unfair in some sense and it doesn't seem like Terran has something similar.
Let’s not forget the disparity in spells. 😂
1:41:44 Artosis can't help but plug Terran 😂
This is absolutely Crazy!
Wtf Scan can speak Korean?
Many of us can. I learned in the 1990's.
@@GarrySkipPerkinsit’s a joke, he’s Korean
I still wait for tastetosis to commentate these games. Won't watch anyone else Thank you for bringing these to us. Keep it going!
LETS GO, MY BOY MINI!
Can you please tell production to align players names with colors and starting locations? In mirror matches its sometimes confusing to tell who is who.
Scan, Scan, he's our man
If he can't do it no one can!
Cheering for Bisu just so we can keep hearing his song
Would you guys finally go look at the Brood War booklet? I’m almost certain those race logos are there.
Game 2 was so close with that bust. Slightly better targeting on the goons towards the end of the fight and ssak has it, I think. Either way, I feel like ssak does this a lot, and you can tell Bisu thought the same thing since he went the safest build he could go, pretty much.
The wraith play was what I always felt like more players should try. A cloaked sneak attack and, once losing some, build a few more.
SECURE SOCKET LAYER!!!!! every time I hear the intro
Congrats on beating Bisu TWICE in one Group, Scan! Better luck next year, Bisu...
"there are too many Terrans this season, what can we do?"
"Hmmmmm what about... Dominator?"
go scan!
the opening song has ssl in the lyrics, is it ai generated? it sounds suuuuuper ai generated
artosis is like 2 seconds ahead here, you can tell on the reaver hit on the three tanks in scans first game
Is there any way to stream this on a GOM player for maximum nostalgia?
My favorite ones advancing to the round of 16.
Bisu's reaver got 13 probes. Legendary scarab hit.
FLASH is scared to play in public?
Yes and old
What is that starting match song?
I will always cheer for scan
Why no Zergs? Everyone plays either P or T
Is terror the south american player or a different korean?
Wait... did I see that right? C9 Bisu?
woa woa woa, I didn´t get the memo... why snow is not in the players list? did he not qualified or he did not wanted to play this SSL? Thanks for your eng casting. Greatings from México
Scan is looking good :)
I can’t unheard all the songs used in this, they all sounds like AI music, does anyone else also think this?
where can I watch this Eng commentary live
Poor Scan. Really tough group for our boy.
much love all
LETS GO SCAN!!
Bisu vs mini was a pretty good game
There can't be a ASL/SSL without Bisu on the round of 16!
I would have liked to have seen ssak use the dropship to do a sneaky expand, top left or top right with 4-5 scvs. A few to wall the ramp, one for a cc and another for turrets instead of cluttering the main with depots. I think it would have helped his economy greatly and helped him topple the protoss. And of course, finally, some good f**king bishop wraith meta.

love me some sc2... but BW + Tastosis hits different!!!
Spoiler:
Mini flipped all the good coins this day...
Scan is suddenly so handsome I didn't recognize him.
I believe about 3 of the 192 mines detonated across all the games did more damage to the enemy than the person who laid them.
Is this ASL just rebranded? Or is this a different tournament?
The former.
@@joshuanorthey2026 Any reason why?
"freak" isn't PC, so they rebrandedbto something more game-y "so OP" /s
