Polt not advancing over protoss players?

Fionn will have your head for this!

No, but really, Polt should own this group if he's even remotely close to good form. TvP has always been his best, even in the WoL days and it's a 3 toss group.

Polt to crush! And Jim
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Polt 4-0 ez. On the real though, his TvP is way too strong to not get out of this group. I mean, Taeja took out Alicia at Asus Rog, and Polt's TvP is definitely better than Taeja's.



I'm sorry, but that's an outrageous claim. As far as I see it (and I've watched a LOT of Polt and Taeja), but Polt is definitely much sloppier than Taeja. Considering recent form, Taeja's run through the ROG is indicative of superb multi tasking and micro/macro. I've watched Polt's MLG run very carefully... and I have to say, when it comes to micro and multi-tasking, Polt is definitely a LOT sloppier than Taeja. That said, Polt is a much more flexible player. His decision-making is much better, he also has much more depth than Taeja. I've seen Polt lose entire drops and group of 10-20 supply in bio and still win. This highlights the strength of Polt's overall gameplan and decision-making.

Overall, TvP is a matchup that relies heavily on mass bio micro. I have to give Taeja the edge in this, but TvP can also be decided in the first 10 minutes depending on build orders and scouting. I have to give that edge to Polt, with his extensive experience and variety of his builds(ranging from super-agressive to super-greedy).
He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight. He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.
