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


If MMA is choking, then MMA shouldn't even be here because MKP choked against him.

Polt is just way more mentally prepared and has better micro than MMA. This isn't just nerves. Polt has better overall micro and control than Polt. The only thing I think MMA has an edge with against Polt is the macro game. This is countered by Polt using aggressive bio play that makes it so that the games don't go into the late stage where MMA can show off his macro skills.

Polt is just outplaying him and exploiting MMA's main weakness.

Don't question the logic... people are just cheering for MMA and feel disappointed since he is losing, even though the games are very tense.


They may look to you, but the only intensity I find to it is because I'm cheering for MMA and hoping he'll come back each time.
He's making so many mistakes, even basic ones, that it's disheartening. I hoped for good games, I see MMA getting roflstomped and somehow hanging in the games, each time. That is not what I'd call a good finals. Even if I was cheering for Polt (I'd be happy, but from the results, not the games).

Polt's road to the final is actually more impressive than MMA.

When the build you start the game off with is just straight up weak against the build your opponent started off with before any decently timed scouting can be attempted.

Also, for the "GSL finals are always so bad!" crowd: MVP vs MK during the World Champs wasn't that one sided. It was actually quite close for a while, MK just got figured out towards the end of the series (4-2), and the season 2 finale was 4-3 with an epic hold by Nestea who went hatch first in close positions on Meta against a 2-rax build at the height of 2-rax's popularity.


mkp didnt have an answer for mvp, iirc the 2 games he won were quick BO wins

NesTea vs MKP was bad, MKP cheesed 3 times in there and got rolled in all macro games

so yeah, not a single one of the GSL finals so far can be called good


luckily that is your own opinion on mkp vs nestea.

Im actully loving this. Both good players but its sooo goood to see the underdog winning

has no finals experince
hasnt won a tournament

everything thinks MMA is gonnna win.
MMA run to the final is all terran.

and polt is winning! Polt play has been super clean as well. You know he ment business right from the first game when MMA had a siege tank. polt runs in, scans and begins to rofl stomp. most players would of ran. Key success of polt winning is he being decisive where MMA is completely lost.

Those two are wrong. Polt has won two Championship Trophy tournaments.

I like how everytime Polt advanced everyone said, losira played bad, huk played bad, alicia played bad, top played bad, and now mma played bad.

Wow what a coincidence that all these players played bad when they played against polt!

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.

I'm pretty sure SlayerS players don't ladder as much as the PRIME players.

There's nothing wrong with the way MMA is playing, its just Polt is playing so much faster and with a bigger hammer than anyone else in the gsl right now. His timing are sick and he's changing the metagame for the better!

Build Order loss. It means a player lost because they chose a build order that is hard countered by their opponents. Like a zerg 7 pooling against a terran who goes 14 CC.
