PEI is a pretty awesome place but small I wonder why he picked it?

If memory serves, Artosis’ wife is originally from PEI.

If so, moving close to family when you’re raising three(?) kids seems like it would just be good for everyone.

AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

Indeed I suspect that’s the primary reason why Artosis is leaving South Korea. Good luck to him & the family with their move.

Sometimes we need a change otherwise we get stuck in a rut. Best of luck to him.

Yeah if you get along with them, there not much better thing for parents than grandparents. Free babysitting and transport!

Total change of lifestyle PEI’s biggest city is like 35000 people I believe.

Good for him! Tough choice but I wish him the best! Probably the GOAT caster.

Hopefully this means we see Artosis in non-GSL a lot more now!

Also, if he’s not able to cast GSL online, I hope they bring on State full-time. He was awesome with Tasteless!

Wow. Good for him. Never thought I’d be this sad about a relative stranger’s (potential) career change.

Can’t say I’d blame Afreeca for not permitting online casts of GSL. Maybe some tri-casts with Artosis casting remotely would be a good compromise. Hell even guest casts from time to time would be rad.

Gonna miss him.

In PEI you can buy a pretty big house with acres of land for a few hundred thousand dollars. In Vancouver/Toronto you might be able to buy a studio apartment for the same price.

Damn not gonna lie that shook me a little, the times they are a-changing

PEI is great though, hopefully he can have a wonderful time there raising his family.

Surprising, but it would be really cool if they can do online casts like with ASL!

Tastosis is a huge part of why I love watching GSL, they just do such an excellent job, I hope they’ll allow online casts!

Wow. End of an era. Best of luck ‘Tosis and ‘Tosis fam. Thanks for all the amazing casts throughout the years. The absolute GOAT casting duo.

End of an era. Been watching tastetosis for over a decade now.

This is a smart move though, with the Blizzard ESL contract ending after this year the future of SC2 esports in 2023+ is very much in doubt sadly. It’s been a good run but leaving after GSL S3 is good timing and could help him be able to stream on twitch more during NA/EU hours.

Just one more sign of the times. Best of luck to Artosis. Will be interested to see what Tasteless does in the future as well. He seems to also be trying to build a Youtube presence but not as successfully.

I’ve always appreciated Dan and Nick’s contribution to Starcraft. I selfishly hope they will always be able to stay connected to the scene for as long as possible. Im hoping SC3 or some other RTS will come out soon so their careers can continue to grow and be exciting.
