I get up at 4:30 in the morning, which is when you guys tend to put out videos. It's always great to wake up to some StarCraft! Keeps me going in the morning.
i am always amazed how good Artosis and Tasteless are at judging the Game Situation. You can really feel these years of experience when they go "He should be calling GG any minute now" and not 5 seconds after ggaemo GG's or when they correctly call a strat in the making during the first 2 minutes of a game. You guys are doing an amazing job!
I want to confirm what Tastosis said, but the translated interviews add a lot to the whole tournament experience. Especially since most of the broodwar players are older, they are just more interesting people, so being able to understand is cool.
I love seeing new faces in Brood War. I always like to cheer for the old champions like Flash and Bisu, but seeing new players coming and taking trophies is always great. I love watching sc2, but there's something about brood war that makes it even better for me
SPOILER: I absolutely loved watching Ggaemo. Firstly he was such a good sport in the beginning when he laughed at Snow saying "I'm not worried about the first match" (vs. him!). Then when he won his games his victory celebration was so honest. And just the way he played. He seems like a really stand-up guy and I'm going to be rooting for him the rest of the tournament.
59:41 I could almost hear Artosis' eyes twitching as Tasteless explains that any Terran "worth his salt" isn't going to let Arbiters recall into his base. Poor Artosis.
I have to agree with Artosis take on the Arbitor, ITs super tanky and halucinate allows you to get in the base with little to no issue, Tasteless is just Ape Protoss Gamer tho he just banana his way around and monkeys around and is Artosis Ape so...
@@Globodyne Yet Artosis is higher rank and ive heard other pro Terrans kinda state that turrets dont realy work vs Arbs soo when higher ranked protoss players themselfs counter Tasteless comments and sides with Artosis you know just how wrong Tasteless was.
@@TheGero95 They took paycuts to still cast Season 11 even though Afreecatv wanted to cancel the english version. And then from Season 12 and forward they arent casting ASL for Afreeca anymore .. So they made an agreement to cast it themself, and opened a patreon for anyone who wanted to chip in. With Afreecas permission they are allowed to cast them, however it still has to bee uploaded on the official channel, and its not live anymore but only vods Pretty much something like that. Maybe i missed something
I'll just say.. that one fella from this group that Arto praised last time.. fully deserved. Awesome group. Well played! Thanks for the commentary, guys.
I was so against Gaemo because I feel like hydra lurker contain makes for a bad game and it's cheesy but I'll defer to the archon's perspective, despite what I think hydra lurker isn't a cheese and he played 3 straight up games and he deserves to get through. Good job Gaemo
I’m the opposite I love lurker contains it feels like a proper war as the Protoss tears in the Zerg defenses with spells and barrages of goon fire the back and forth is super tense.
Gaemo put out AMAZING games. Really really unbelievable play in all 3. Snow hasn't adapted to these lurker contains, both of his games looked like the games he had vs soma that was so one sided it was nearly a perfect game from soma. He really struggles with the lurker contains and hasn't figured out a way to play against zergs doing it like mini has
So I just finished ggaemo's match with snow There's something about ggaemo and not having overlords where he needs them lmao does anyone remember that game against Upmagik 15 years ago where he loses 13 hydras to 1 mine
I have one question, do you translate after you cast the vod, or do you not watch the interviews? In GSL you seem to talk about what all the players said beforehand and I find your (some times trash) talking really interesting, because you often bring context to those interviews, which I sadly miss here.
They need to give Observers twice as much HP and shields to prevent ZvP from being so imbalanced. The matchup has become "set up Lurkers, have Overlords in the area, kill Observers with Hydralisks and Scourge, 1a2a3a4a, wait for the gg." And the tournament doesn't tend to "sort things out" as far as race distribution goes, at least not in recent years. S12 Round of 4: 2Z 1T 1P S11 Round of 4: 3Z 1P S10 Round of 4: 3Z 1 Random (Flash) S9 Round of 4: 2Z 2T S8 Round of 4: 2P 1T 1Z = the last time there were fewer than 2 Zerg in the semifinals. Lurkers are OP vs. Protoss due to weak Observers, and Defilers are OP vs. Terran due to the Terran race having _no freaking melee combat units._ No season of ASL since S1 has featured zero Zerg in the Round of 4.
Is there a reason that Terran players don't put a medic at a mining base that has been hit by a storm to heal up the scvs? I ask because Royal got stormed quite a bit and it seemed like having something healing units would have made them more resilient.
AfreecaTV still using the same rly old chairs, with one still being taped. I wonder if someone can hook them up with new ones, maybe Secretlab ones (bc that is the most praised brand of them rn)
He is considered retired at this point due to the wrist problems like Last did. Of course, he may come back after a while like Rain did this season but dont hold ur breath for that.
I only watch these non live recordings. I think ASL got rid of the part that should have got rid of the part that got rid of that part. JUST ME I DONT KNOW
1:12:27 it felt like teal was playing chess, and moving his goons into those mines was like a chess player acknowledging checkmate by knocking his king over.. kinda
Why did ggaemo depart with his Hydras at 2:13:52 from SnOw's base? Was it that important to take down the Corsair, to the point where he allowed SnOw's wandering Zealots out?
In addition to a chance at catching the Corsair, I think it was also just to pull back tactically - ggaemo had not had vision in SnOws base for a decently long time (like, 5 minutes?), so didn’t know the specific timing for Reavers, Storm, or even if SnOw was just pumping out a bunch of Zealots/Dragoons - with only a dozen Hydralisks outside the base, if any of those had been the case SnOw would have been able to break out anyway, but then ggaemo would have lost a bunch of Hydralisks right before his lurker tech was done. That’s why once ggaemo cleared out the wandering zealots he put the contain back in place - from the movements he had enough confidence then that SnOw was not going all in, and he would actually be able to keep the contain up.
It seems like sometimes the observer remembers to switch the colors to red/blue, and sometimes forgets. IMO if it's not a mirror matchup, they should always keep the original colors.
They switch in certain scenarios. If the colors are too close to one another (usually on the mini-map), if someone is dark-blue or another really dark color (because their name can't easily be read in the top right) and in mirror matchups.
⚫️ I am curious !!! ⚫️ Does *ARTOSIS* ask *TASTELESS* random questions because he respects his knowledge, and believes his opinions … ??. ⬛️ Or is *ARTOSIS* just kind of passive aggressively *vicious* like that??? ➖ I.e is he trying to point out how much more knowledgeable he is (or at least *THINKS* he is ) about the game then *Tasteless* , or *HEAVEN FORBID* kind of poking fun of Tasteless from his Iron Tower of past glory .???

It's even funnier, because he just calculated that 32sec build time divided by 7-8 seconds to mine is 4 :D.

Thank you bossman
It's always a dilemma to stay awake and watch or sleep and watch in the morning. Thanks for your guy's great work again.
Sleep! ;)
I know what you mean haha I usually take the hit on sleep and watch it
i do both! i fall asleep watching and have to rewatch. twice the viewership, twice the support :p
@@bushtaco This is the way.
lol okay im glad im not the only one who does this
Tasteless has that passion back. I love it.
He really does.
I think playing regularly again has really helped his love of the game
Hadn't realised, but ASL S12 I felt like Artosis was dominating the cast, and now it's much more equal and better.
I get up at 4:30 in the morning, which is when you guys tend to put out videos. It's always great to wake up to some StarCraft! Keeps me going in the morning.
same
dangggg
i wake up at 4:30 am too :D

Really impressed with ggaemo. Been struggling against P lately, and this shines some light on the match up.
I want to confirm what Tastosis said, but the translated interviews add a lot to the whole tournament experience. Especially since most of the broodwar players are older, they are just more interesting people, so being able to understand is cool.

he's really good! but damn, i'm sad about SnOw :(
Sn0w breaks my heart every season.
@@Dartht33bagger i feel like its his PvZ still holding him back?
mine is broken too. shattered i tell you.

Clearly Artosis just needs more turrets lawl.
@@Globodyne Yet Artosis is higher rank and ive heard other pro Terrans kinda state that turrets dont realy work vs Arbs soo when higher ranked protoss players themselfs counter Tasteless comments and sides with Artosis you know just how wrong Tasteless was.
I'm super excited for the winner of the last match just goes to show that hard work and dedication can actually pay off.
"I've never played this map but I can tell easily that he wasn't going to get that overlord". AHAHA that's amazing!! Prime Tastosis banter )))))
Thank God for ASL, always makes it worth staying up way past my bedtime ¦^]
have been checking all day for this vod.just got home figured I would check one more time and there it is. Hail yeah, Tastosis
Love the frequency of the uploads. Can't wait for the last group. JD HWAITING
I'm out of the loop, why can't they do this live anymore?

I think this is their third tournament this way. It's up to us to help them keep it going. Throw something at the Patreon if you're able.
Afreeca thank you for these great games
I'll just say.. that one fella from this group that Arto praised last time.. fully deserved. Awesome group.
Well played! Thanks for the commentary, guys.
Wow, great games out of this group. Really strong play from all four contenders, but in the end two have to win and two have to go.
ggaemo with the Opening theme from the slam dunk anime
the man has taste
Awesome cast (as always), great games: man ASL is just awesome! Thank you! 💗💗💗
Tasteless: "A real innovator of the race protoss."
Artosis: "Oh yeah..."
lmao
dont remember
I live for these ASL casts thank you!
Thank you Tasteless and Artosis after 15 years for bringing starcraft again! I can see that ggaemo is also here after 15 years!
Great content! I enjoy BW more than SC2 right now, somehow its more tense.
This Group D was the one with the biggest surprise for Ro24. Great cast Tastosis!
spoiler????
@@TheXpro11 depends on your definition of spoilers?
@@TheXpro11 *biggest surprise* isn't indicative of anything in particular. I think it's a fair, spoiler free, statement.
It's always great to see SCBW.
I always thought ggaemo was sort of meh back in the kespa days, it's great to see him absolutely crushing
I was so against Gaemo because I feel like hydra lurker contain makes for a bad game and it's cheesy but I'll defer to the archon's perspective, despite what I think hydra lurker isn't a cheese and he played 3 straight up games and he deserves to get through. Good job Gaemo
The unit that made the difference was the lings, created enough buffer for the hydra lurker to dish out the damage at range.
I’m the opposite I love lurker contains it feels like a proper war as the Protoss tears in the Zerg defenses with spells and barrages of goon fire the back and forth is super tense.
All of us old fossils are rooting for ggaemo!
Glad to see the reupload back to life again
Never before have I seen as epic a game ended by a cluster of spider mines. Wow. Thanks guys~!
Gaemo put out AMAZING games. Really really unbelievable play in all 3. Snow hasn't adapted to these lurker contains, both of his games looked like the games he had vs soma that was so one sided it was nearly a perfect game from soma.

Spoilers!

After watching Ggaemo's ZvP, I really want to see him go up against Mini in a Bo5/Bo7. That would be a sick match.
So I just finished ggaemo's match with snow
There's something about ggaemo and not having overlords where he needs them lmao does anyone remember that game against Upmagik 15 years ago where he loses 13 hydras to 1 mine
What a beautiful upset, even against one of my favourite players!
Great stuff GGaeModa!
damn some sick games from ggaemo

They are translated first and then they cast over the vods. At least that's how it sounds like it works from their Patreon updates.
Spoliler
I Cant belive snOw is out man ...
my favourite Toss ... feels
Agreed. He really deserves a championship. Hope he gets there some day.
I'm so happy this is still going and we can watch great players play. :) Good commentary i always enjoy new vid. :)
ASL forever!
PvZ seems extremely hard on. Feel bad for snow
Where can we watch Ro16 group nomination? 🙏
(It was on 22 Feb 2022, 7pm KST)
Best games we've had so far. Keep it up team!
Incredible stacraff as always
I really enjoyed game 2! And 3! Gaemo! Holy shitttt! GG!
This is the highlight of my day, thank a lot!
Ggaemo is a sweetheart
great games

PANTS JOKE 🤣😂😅😅😂🤣 how you cannot love that man ! 🤣

GG for spoiling even in the title !

"dodges the storm with his observer"
I hate that this sentence makes sense.
Gameo vs snow game was awesome
Cool to see someone new in the round of 16 :D
Thank you bananasoup!
A new challenger approaches!
Look at this Artosis. Terran play more than 2 basses :D
❤️
ggaemo is a beast! GG ggaemo!
also super good looking
God damn this is a good thing to wake up to!
Guemchi keeps on shaking the camera lmao
Lets have an honest moment here... Tasteless has NEVER pants. Even when he was in the studio.
that ggaemo v RoyaL was sic
Man, this girl and her outfits lol. Most exciting thing about the interviews is to see what she's going to turn up in next.
Last game was awesome
I just noticed that the days/dates were blurred at 12:20
Why is that?
thank you for the action!
Where is Larva? He skipped ASL12 and now ASL13, is he rly injured for an entire year?
He is considered retired at this point due to the wrist problems like Last did. Of course, he may come back after a while like Rain did this season but dont hold ur breath for that.
Every toss felt Tasteless on his lurker contain comments, we have no idea how many, we just know we are completely surrounded.
"future RTS games" made me sad
59:44 Shots fired Arty
Lol i cant help but meet their challenge...
Snow needs to use reavers along with templars
Starcraft forever
sad to see snow eliminated.
BW 4 EVER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I only watch these non live recordings. I think ASL got rid of the part that should have got rid of the part that got rid of that part. JUST ME I DONT KNOW
I love ASL.
Game 3 is sooo satisfying. Like ASMR
Omg is it Christmas? 🎄 🎄
you forgot to say "we love you"
Is it really so wrong to include their Patreon in the information place below the video??
1:12:27 it felt like teal was playing chess, and moving his goons into those mines was like a chess player acknowledging checkmate by knocking his king over.. kinda

Reminds me of the worst of fighting spirit.
I know right? Honestly have love this game since 1998 and never really worried about balance. But zerg is just op right?
