Polt IS good, but if you remember the super tournament, MMA sort of defeated himself in some games. Other games were weird rush builds by Polt (looked like a TvP at times). MMA has had more impressive wins recently..and even overall, has crushed in the team league a number of times. | ||

i think Zenio's really good, but TOP is better imo. i'm thinking Virus will edge out Genius, because Genius is inconsistent, and Virus is consistently decent and I think MVP will manhandle NesTea. NesTea is very reactionary, and I think Mvp's slow careful pulling apart style TvZ will beat him. HuK will be somewhat tired after IEM, and didn't perform too well there, so I think NaDa's got it. besides, theres always 1/1/1 if all else fails :p. and for the others i agree with LB's predictions | ||

Polt reminds me of Thorzain a bit. With preparation, he's absolutely beastly. Without it, he's still good but doesn't quite have that "oomph" it takes to impress people. MMA, meanwhile, has a flashy style and has shown himself able to destroy people even without extensive preparation; he doesn't so much "snipe" people as just beat them. He's sort of like DRG (or DRG is like him) in that regard, which is really what makes both him and DRG good aces for their teams. | ||

This is the part where I realize that 80% of TeamLiquid doesn't watch enough GSL, and sigh. 'Sigh, 80% of TL doesn't watch enough GSL. No wonder they thought blue-flame hellions were an innovation.' That made me laugh out loud. Fan boys will be fan boys Waxy. | ||

A third of July's ZvP's are against MC, and at least he won some of those. The only actual good Zerg player that HungUn has played was Nestea, and HungUn lost 0-3. Not even stats, but just looking at each of their games, July's ZvP seems more solid. We'll see though. | ||

Do people hate HongUn that much for whatever reason or does nobody pay attention? TL, myself and most non-Koreans it seems, vote heavily based on personality and if someone is a character or not. Someone who is relatively "boring" usually has to make some crazy plays (i.e. sC) to be brought into the personal preferences fold of TL. | ||
