[ENG] AfreecaTV StarLeague(ASL) S12 Ro.16 Group Nomination (Tastosis)

[@michaelcallisto]

Respect to whoever did the subtitles for this. It's as long as a full movie.

[@ab-lymphocite5464]

I think tasteless normally does the subtitles, but I could just be thinking of the live translations he would do.

[@wingedarr0w]

They pay a translator to do it.

[@tyfyh622]

do you get respect doing your job?

[@michaelcallisto]

@@tyfyh622 Um... Yes? Is this a trick question? If you do an exceptional job, your customers appreciate it.

[@Currywurst4444]

@@ab-lymphocite5464 Back in the day Tasteless always read/repeated the translations from the producer but he never did them himself.

[@darkjedi4z]

Thank you for doing the translations for this! The translations for ASL11 were so great and illustrated the humorous smack talk between players, I am looking forward to seeing if they bring the same fun energy to this one!

[@centrallakesgaming8776]

I have never watched a group nomination with such earnest and eager attention. Thank you so much for the translations! I read every word. Group C is so wild there's no words to describe it, honestly; The only possible way it could get better would be if Flash were to burst out of the wall fighting a gorilla and there's putin on a bear following.. indescribable.

[@theSato]

Honestly I think the most stacked would've been Group A being Mini, Light, Queen, and then either SnOw or SoulKey lol

[@theSato]

The insane build-up of how Mini would use his switch was like half the video haha.. the sheer tenseness as everyone debates and argues and puts up their idea of how he should do it.. this is the best reality TV ever Edit: Thank you for the translators, and everyone involved with keeping ASL English & competitive SC English alive, you seriously make life a lot better :)

[@theSato]

also can I just say I love the strange noises and mannerisms that the host trio (the caster dudes) make. ( e.g. 1:49:42 ) .. the "woawoawoa"s and "AAAH??" and so on.. its so good

[@BLooDCoMPleX]

"Those Zerg players are tricksters, and you shouldn't fall for it, dear viewers!" -Light

[@tomlai6982]

Group nominations are always so fun to watch! Thanks to whoever did the translations!

[@shartlover420]

Awesome translations, makes this group nomination so interesting and enjoyable to watch, and getting to know the players better. Also Hyun-kyung is a fantastic host.

[@nathanbaney4394]

She's honestly so consistently good, 100% agree

[@lethern2]

she is well prepared and professional and doing it just alone compared to 2 or 3 casters we're otherwise used to

[@KenNywithrice]

I love these subbed Group nominations, just like the last one I never stopped grinning throughout. Mini made the exact switch I wanted, hyped for Ro16!

[@7thquark309]

The subtitles are (once again) awesome, it makes the whole experience very enjoyable, like watching a movie ! Also I like how Mini is so careful to not offend anyone ^^

[@bayasgalantsogtgerel3346]

I wish in the next group nomination tasteless and artosis at the end should give their opinions and feedback on the group selections.

[@lethern2]

They always share their thoughts at the beginning when matches start, as they have some time to share their thoughts anyway

[@JJEMTT]

Well Group C is insane.

[@NeZKyMaN]

I miss Flash :-( come back quickly!

[@DELTA104X]

i enjoyed this rendition of the group selection!

[@chongu]

The taunts to Rush were hilarious

[@centrallakesgaming8776]

ok wait, hold up. How do I get a Snow mousepad???

[@HasekuraIsuna]

SnOw: The mousepad isn't sold anywhere, you need to contact me directly! OP: How do I get the mousepad?! (´・ω・｀)?

[@majormononoke8958]

Go to his afreeca stream while he is streaming and write in the chat that you want a mousepad. Or write him a e-mail his contact data should be under his afreeca channel, or you find it under any youtube video on his youtube channel. here is one of his videos on his channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJjWiKaYhp5qldk 12:00~15:00 낮방송 19:00~ 밤방송 아프리카 방송국 bj.afreecatv.com/tmsh401 스폰서 문의 [e-mail] 라이브 풀영상 채널 kzbin.info/door/w_Q... 채널에 가입하여 혜택을 누려보세요. kzbin.info/door/NRn... here his info just contact him and write him how you would pay ... He speaks english...

[@Nooctae]

Always funny to see that the best RTS players in the world all use cheap 5 bucks mouses. Makes it harder for the peripherals companies to sell you on the expensive stuff lol

[@James-sn5mg]

i always thought their keyboard and mouse are modified to their liking.

[@l0rch785]

additionally a lot of them were still using the legendary dt-35, a cheap membrane keyboard

[@theSato]

I mean.. yeah, you can become a pro gamer using cheaper or lesser equipment. The #1 thing that matters is skill. Having a mouse that clicks 0.01ms faster won't have a huge impact on gameplay. That being said, there are definitely advantages to more expensive peripherals. Quality, accuracy, speed (to a small extent), durability/longevity. Subjective things as well, like feel.

[@Art-uz3fk]

I feel like AfreecaTV didn't want them to say brands without securing sponsors ? Idk. They all definitely use particular mouses . Cost is not always the only factor it's more about how it fits in your hand

[@Maldunn]

I enjoyed soma’s taunts

[@YonatanPurba]

Can't wait for the day 1 Ro 16!

[@lucsalander]

Why did you hide the Group A video i wanted to watch it tonight

the group nominations always end up like the story of an anime and it's great XD , happy to see everyone happy with their group for once as well

[@justanotheruserxxl]

Group C is incredible.

[@Xiloscient7]

Where is Tastosis?

[@Jean-vr7vj]

Well nick got drunk the night before and couldnt get up. And dan stepped on a lego. Twice. So we all feel for him. They will both be back for gsl though. On wheelchairs

[@AlojzyZyrokompas]

Where are Ro.16 matches?

[@Art-uz3fk]

Group of death for queen/stork/light/snow and healing group for HerO

[@HasekuraIsuna]

First time I watched a nomination! That was some excellent display of character and backstabbing lol 815 brought along just as much chaos as his playstyle would imply Queen setting up the stage for Stork Light trying to sound like a boss, but not be taken seriously by anyone A lot of good moments!

[@theSato]

What do you mean, Light was given the most respect of anyone (other than mini, which is a given when you are top seed from last season and have the power of Switch)

[@tyfyh622]

I'm sorry, what part of thsi video is "Tastosis"?

[@TheXpro11]

The real tastosis is the friends we made along the way

[@eMbry00s]

tastosis paid for the translation with our patreon cash

[@quinton1630]

@@eMbry00s Part of that was my Patreon cash, and I’m happy they did it. Tastosis working hard to keep the English SC:BW community alive

[@AlojzyZyrokompas]

Financing translation.

[@Desoliraa]

I died when SnOw talked about his mousepad. Absolutely died. Yes SnOw, I'd love one. Lmao. Also it was a bit silly of the interviewer to say that Zerg is more likely to be chosen because there's more Zerg. The extra Zerg is a seeded player, and there's 4 players to choose from each race. She seemed to have looked at the numbers and assumed. Guess despite doing this cast for years she still lacks a thorough understanding of what's going on. Thank you for another translated group nomination. It really brings the players to life, and we have the opportunity to see them for more than just what they do on the battlefield. Kudos guys!

[@maka299]

Where is the ro16 tastosis?

they all want to face Protoss, lol. Arty get rekt.

Lol, I can't believe how many whiners there are, including some from my own country (sigh). Thanks, Tastosis, the players, Hyun-Kyung, and all the casters. This was extremely interesting to watch. And congrats, Snow, on getting married!

[@GDubbleBubble]

Where Tastosis?

[@bencheevers6693]

There is no Tastosis in this, I mean I could be wrong, I skimmed through but I actually clicked onto group selection specifically for their commentary and found out this was just a whole lot of subs, I mean I think it's worthwhile just not to me

[@Artas1984]

''Vegita''... LMAO...

[@leonillbati-on4389]

wait??? they have good keyboard but generic mouse?? i thought they use a good mouse because of sensitivity or DPI, also i wish that that the teXt is white with black boarder on it and remove the black rectangles

[@Freeman1000000]

Thats just marketing gibberish for ignorant consumers.

[@mikew6543]

DPI is beyond useless after a certain point since moving your mouse at warp speed across your screen isnt helpful at all. DPI is literally a buzzword to get idiots to continually upgrade and buy shit they dont need. Kinda like how cars keep coming out with more Horsepower that youre not even able to use since theres a speed limit on every single road...

[@psychomap]

Everyone's clapping, except for Stork and Light.

I think Zerg will do well to get through their groups.

[@madcowlive1081]

RiP official english asl. n i hate how i cant listen to this in the background, i just hope there is more people enjoying this with just subtitles then people who prefer just voice translation

[@eMbry00s]

i've seen more people say they enjoy the subtitles than the audio translation. I'm one of them anyway. Could never bother listening to the live translators that seem too slow to translate even half of what is said

[@majormononoke8958]

The voice over translations is horrible. Since they wouldnt have neought professional voice over people for all the players to amtch their personalities etc. And it would probrally end with one to two persons doing all the subtitles.

[@DjAtmaWeapon]

So sad about Larva

[@werewolfasp2259]

Wait they just use $5.00 dollar mouses? Why did I waste money buying a $90.00 dollar mouse....

[@AlojzyZyrokompas]

Advertising.

[@mikew6543]

Cause you didnt do any research on the product and you just threw money at the biggest dollar amount thinking it was a good idea. You are the kind of people that keep businesses afloat.

[@KuraiChanZ]

People sure like to whine huh

[@stephensterling1874]

Okay

[@КонстантинИванов-д1д]

thanks for translations and efforts but DAMN watching group nominations is so fuckin boring... damn near two hours of useless shit, which Artosis usually sums up as "this is the group of death" or "I think this guy is getting out" and he is usually right about it...

[@citizenofterra]

then dont watch it brother

Sc2 is better

[@Freeman1000000]

SC2 is completely different game, both are fantastic games though. Stop dividing already very much damaged fan base.

[@AlojzyZyrokompas]

No.

[@mikew6543]

Its a joke that Sc2 is even called Starcraft 2. The game is complete trash and after 3 expansions it still wont have the tenured, storied history BW is still creating.

[@HasekuraIsuna]

It's funny to ever so often hear a word that is very similar to Japanese: When they were talking about their bags they said something like "kaban" which is the same as in Japanese. They said the players tense for today's nominations, and I thought I heard something like "kinjou" which is very close to "kinchou" which is "nervous/tense". Someone said someone was "too strong" and said something like "sugite" which is "too" in Japanese. SnOw said he was feeling happy and used something like "kibun" which is "feelings" in Japanese. nOOb described Light as a "monster" with something sounding like "kemol" which isn't too far off from Japanese "kemono" for "beast/monster".

[@mellofifee]

Yes! Most of the words you picked up on are cognates or loanwords. 1. Korean gabang/kabang/가방 is a loanword from Japanese kaban/かばん/鞄. 2. Korean ginjang/kincang/긴장 is cognate with Japanese kinchou/きんちょう/緊張; both are loanwords from Chinese. 3. If this was when they said segi ddæmune/seki ttaymwuney/세기 때문에, which means "because [he's] strong", then it's just a coincidence that "segi ddæ.../seki ttay..." sounds like sugite/すぎて/過ぎて. 4. Korean gibun/kipwun/기분 is cognate with Japanese kibun/きぶん/気分; both are loanwords from Chinese. 5. Korean gwoemul/kwoymwul/괴물 is unrelated to Japanese kemono/けもの/獣; the true cognate here is kaibutsu/かいぶつ/怪物; both it and the Korean are loanwords from Chinese.

[@mellofifee]

Re 3. Or perhaps it was at 18:00 when Barracks says setgeodeunyo/sessketun'yo/셌거든요 "because [they] were strong".

[@HasekuraIsuna]

I knew that behind many Korean words are Chinese just as in Japanese, but thanks for confirming my suspicions in 1, 2 and 4: D There are so many times while I watch ASL interviews when I just look away from the screen only to realise I don't understand it. Korean really sounds a lot like Japanese, that I don't understand haha For 3 I don't think it was Barracks 18:00, probably what you first said. For 5, with how 怪 also can be ケ and 物 also モツ it kinda makes sense it could become kwoymwul

[@mellofifee]
