Artosis has arrived! Exclusive interview of the famed GOMTV commentator.

First a beloved GOMTV commentator and now an acclaimed—and even award winning—YouTube caster, Artosis chats with GosuGamers' ronstopAbL on his newfound channel success, his relationship with IdrA, and his plans for the future.

It was a couple of things. Firstly, I finally figured out how to make really high quality VODs. I didn't want to release inferior VODs that people wouldn't be happy with, so I waited until I could do this. Also, I got a little tiny bit more free time.I still enjoy to make real life videos, probably more so than any other type. As for actual VODs, I do like to make those too. I enjoy to commentate—especially in a very analytical way—and have always wanted to do some more. I won't focus entirely on it, but I do hope to release a decent number of actual VODs each week as I gain more time.Hmm, that's a good question! It seems that IMMVP vs EGIdrA has been my biggest hit—aside from the BoxeR vs IdrA VOD from quite some time ago. It was a stellar game between two of the absolute best players in the world, and I felt pretty satisfied overall with my commentary on it. PCGamer even named it the #1 commentated SC2 game on YouTube!Yes, actually. I've just put my toes in the water so far, making a couple expert tutorials, but I plan to do a LOT more! The feedback has been great, and I think its really helpful to the community overall to have these videos. One of the problems though is waiting for the right game, which properly shows a common problem, and the exact—or close to [the] exact—correct response. Now that I'm playing more, I expect to have more and more of these games to make tutorials and guides on.[Laughs] I actually did do one of those on SCForALL.com a year or two ago. There will be another one, don't you worry! I don't have a time yet, but I'm sure it will happen!Well, there are a lot of people who used to hack in SC1 whom I called out, and then were caught. They were losers, jerks, whatever. People grow and change though. Spades obviously doesn't do any of that selfish, childish stuff anymore. I decided when I heard he was coming to Korea to give GSL a shot, that he was good to go in my book. I just went right over and asked him for an interview, and it wasn't awkward at all. In fact, he's a really nice and funny guy, I'm really glad I got to meet him, and hope to see him at more tournaments in the future.I actually really love what the YouTube casters are doing. They are grabbing a huge audience, and getting them interested in StarCraft. Commentary from myself or DAy[9] is oftentimes far too in depth for a complete newcomer, and the YouTube casters do a great job of filling in those gaps. Anyone who starts out on the other casters, always has the option to get more into the game, learn more, and find myself and DAy[9] for a deeper look into SC2.was just an idea I came up with one day while on the subway. IdrA and I are great friends in real life, and love to discuss the inner workings of SC2. It just hit me that we are two of the most vocal people in the community, and were willing to talk about this "pro taboo" subject, which no one else of similar caliber was willing to do. IdrA loved the idea, so we went ahead and started it. The plan is to do one show a week when permitting—i.e, not during a LAN or something similar. Obviously, with IdrA moving, myself being very sick lately, and our hectic schedules otherwise, we haven't had one in a few weeks, but they should start again relatively soon! We really love the show, and do not want to give it up.My goal is to upload 2-3 videos a day, but right now it rotates around my very busy schedule. If I'm sick, or my voice is sore from GOM—[which] happens more often than you'd think—I have to skip it. Otherwise, that's the goal! With more time off now from having some new Code A casters, I think its doable in the near future, and will do my best to keep providing great content.I have a ton of awesome ideas just sitting in my brain waiting for a bit more free time. Here are just a few of them: more, more Korean Progamer House Tours, more Foreigner pro interviews, more LAN coverage, more tutorials, and a lot of other ideas that I don't want to tease with yet!Subscribing to my YouTube channel is the biggest thing someone can do to help me out. The more subscribers I get, the more time I can spend making content on my YouTube channel. Please subscribe!YES!He seemed just a tad annoyed at first, but its actually a really cool nickname with a cool story behind it, so I think he's fine with it now.[Laughs] Well, Tasteless and I are truly great friends. We spend a lot of time together and just know how to make each other laugh. I think he's hilarious, so I laugh at him a lot.Name him after a shape. My first guinea's name was Rhombus. What an AWESOME name!I changed for a couple of reasons. Firstly, my play time has been drastically reduced because of casting the GSL, and Zerg requires perfect execution—which comes from loads of practice. Without that extra time, I thought switching races might help me to keep a decent level. Secondly, I wanted to learn the game even deeper. Playing two races at the top level would certainly help with that. I think that right now, there are some small balance problems, as I'm sure most people know. ZvP has been improving lately, but I suspect there needs to be a small change to make it perfect. If I had to make some changes, I'd make the corrupter slightly better against voidrays—or maybe nerf voidrays slightly, remove khadarin amulet, and remove the marauder—[Laughs] Just kidding. Or maybe not...I will continue casting, without any doubt. That being said, I will now be playing a LOT more, due to having Code A casters finally!Right now, Infestors aren't too worthwhile in ZvP. There are small uses they can be good in, but colossus and templar tech are both quite fine against them. Blizzard is obviously trying to make them more useful in the next patch, but I hope they don't overdo it!I don't know if or when I will move back to America. Korea is really my home after living here for over 2.5 years, and I'd be quite sad to leave. I guess I'll just have to wait and see how things go.[Laughs] Pm me, maybe we can work something out.
