MMA is obviously choking, anyone saying differently hasn't been paying attention to his previous games...

MMA not playing at his best so he's obviously choking.

All you guys making excuses about MMA playing bad ,making mistakes, etc are so wrong and deep into denial its not even funny. Polt is MAKING him make mistakes and is clearly the better player, MMA would not be in the finals if he didnt have to play on TvT, his best MU. At least after this i can stop hearing all the bandwagon misguided cheering for someone that was hot for a period of time. Polt showing true skill every game, just pure OWNAGE, love it

everyone saying the games suck :

please stop being a blind fanboy and realize that the games are good. just because who you want to win is not winning doesnt mean it cant be entertaining.

Meh, give Polt more credit, cut MMA some slack. Both of them deserve those.

Polt's decision making is clearly superior, even under the pressure of playing in a finals. MMA may even pull another surprise comeback although it really seems impossible now.

Because it isn't, really all these games have been REALLY close (except possibly game 1) and extremely entertaining.

Actually Game 1 was a straight up BO loss
Game 2 Polt outplayed MMA.
Game 3, a bit of a BO loss in a sense MMA was so unprepared for it, but still Polt definitely outplayed him with it.

Polt's been dominating man, gotta hand it to him. If he wins he definitely deserves it. But hoping for an MMA comeback win.

Will there be a comeback? O.o Or will the Artosis curse strike again. Only time will tell.

I thought this would be a close match, but... I do not know if MMA is nervous or something, but this definitely is not his best gameplay.

Polt is making MMA look like Roberto Luongo right now.

I hope MMA can still pull this off. I think Prime has just all the information about MMA to find his weaknesses.

MMA just needs to visualize that this is the finals of a GSTL and that he needs an all kill to take it home for his team

I daresay MKP is possessing Polt atm, no other explanation.


As a massive MKP fan, you are doing Polt a disservice.

The most impressive thing about Polt's performance tonight so far imo is the way he's handled himself; he was confident and clear in the interviews, he looks calm in the booth, and he's playing excellently on the big stage while under great pressure.

It takes a special kind of person to really perform at your best when the pressure is on.

Game 3 was 100% MKP style play

It's weird to see all the MLG watchers exalting MMA for killing all their favorite players. But they don't realize that Polt has actually been doing better than MMA consistently on the ladder in Korea and they've been about equal in Korean tournaments. Understandably, MMA was arguably slightly favored after killing MK, who has the similar playstyle with Polt, yet Polt has higher intelligence and university behind him.

People still forget MMA is in Code A.

Polt is now 44-14 in his last 58 games. He is currently, without question, the hottest player in the world at the moment.

Even though Polt is completely dominating, for some reason I'm still having fun watching these finals. He's just playing so well. This is not the TvT I expected.
