 This is nowhere near how he played at MLG, I pray that he just wanted to play around and goes 4-3 now! | ||

2. Polt is playing extraordinary, a) he's executing his builds perfectly b) he is completely prepared for MMA's style (see patroling vikings, sensor towers and patroling marines on meta) c) he's judging army trades exquisitely, and his attack windows are spot on d) his scouting is baller e) his macro with its relevant timings (when to build what, when to expand etc.) is on the ball 3. MMA is playing decently, certainly not nearly as bad as you fanboys are making it out to be (rewatch game on meta, and if you're talking about supply block in the mid-game, see point 4) 4. MMA plays weak because he crushes under pressure of a type neither he nor most players would be prepared for. the analogy here would between a forced and an unforced error in Tennis. 5. Polt's builds in themselves are not the hardest thing to execute. the way he exeutes them for his style however is harder than fuck, this is top of the top level play. see point 2. 6. MMA is undeprepared and doesn't show a true champion's adaptability. as i said in the past, the kid isn;t ready to stand with the very best for the moment, and this proves it. 7. these games are definitely better than all the finals in the GSL thus far except MKP vs. Nestea. i hope this calls out some of misconceptions and/or stupidity going on in this thread. | ||

His timing are sick and he's changing the metagame for the better! Actually there is. If MMA techs to banshees while expanding again I'll be super dissapointed in him. His opponent is doing heavy bio timing attacks that only work when you play greedy early on (something MMA has done forever). He has to be able to adjust his game to his opponent otherwise he won't win a game. | ||
