These arguments are silly. Polt didn't get to the finals by cheesing or avoiding a match-up he's terrible at. MMA got here through just TvT. Does he not deserve to be here because he didn't have to face a protoss, easily his worst match-up? Polt had to beat two terrans, a top zerg (Losira) and two protosses. Both players are good. Both players deserve it. That should be that. | ||

The only 2 good protoss he has played against are Alicia and MC. In the MC games, MC did a nexus first into robo, and lost to MM pressure, game 2, well the exact same thing happened. Against alicia, alicia just simply played badly. Im not saying polt is bad in TvP, i just think its unfair to say he has the best TvP in the world when he hasnt beaten a good protoss yet. The only times he has played against a good protoss (and they didnt fail horribly), he lost miserably (ace and choya) | ||

But I root for Polt in the finals. It makes me bitter to think, what MKP could have done, if he would be in Slayers, training with the emperor. Or if Prime had an nice Intel-Mulit-100k-sponsorship. So I want Polt to crash MMA. Cinderella incoming  Nevertheless, whoever wins, wins. | ||

Polt did nothing out of the ordinary, he played like your average GSL terran. Hes the kinda terran that would do well in code A, maybe up to code S for a season before being knocked down. To make it to a final you should have to play unbelievably well, and show high levels of skill. Sure polt didnt make mistakes, but simply playing and not making big mistakes isnt enough for a Star League finals... the only reason polt won that series, was because TOP choked. Dude, give the guy some slack man. He beat seriously tough competition to get here. Losira, Huk, Alicia and TOP might not be top tier players, but they're all not only Code S but extremely tough competition. Sure he's not the most mechanically skilled player, but he's a solid player and proven himself to be at least Top 10 Korean Terrans. Who cares if TOP choked? You choke, you lose. Before you start getting so agitated over Polt being in the finals, how about you wait and see for yourself if Polt can provide us some good games in the finals? Otherwise just don't watch it. Pretty simple IMO. EDIT: And since I've posted, I can guarantee (and I think by now most forum posters can back me up on this) Polt is better than Rain and Inca (and if we're going even further back, Rainbow and Fruitdealer). | ||

Good, or lucky, lets be honest here, POLT had a pretty easy ride up to the finals compared to MMA, and to think just cause Polt has become better is justified, but not enough to think he gonna win against MMA. | ||
