I still think Polt is overall the better player than MMA. MMA is better than him at macro, but like MKP did in his first two games against MMA, he didn't let the game get to a stage where they had countless bases to play against.
Polt's micro outclasses MMA, so he's usually the early game to get the early advantage and pin MMA into his base.
I don't think Polt's micro outclasses MMA, more just that he gets more forces early so he has the ability to outclass his army.
Whether it's more forces, earlier stim, whatever

Boxer: Ok MMA we told you to imagine at the start of the each game you're down 0-3. It didn't work so now that it's really 0-3, we want you to think it's 0-0 each time.

1. Polt is dominating MMA, these are not BO losses
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. relax most of us know this we just don't want to get involved in the shitfest that the people that don't are stirring
Lol what? I'm not sure why you responded with "relax." He was just trying to give an informed description of what was going on to explain it to those who are raging or making excuses for the player they want to win, while he remained calm.
I actually thought it was a good post.

lmfao get out you bandwagoner/glory seeker bandwagoners make me sick.they always ditch the player if he is down. T_T
I never liked MMA, liked Ryung better

I hope MMA pulls something out to get at least 2 wins, ending it like this is disappointing.

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. I agree. I think MKP is probably better at the game than Polt, but Polt isn't much worse and he handles pressure better, which is a huge part of big games like this. Even if MMA wins the next 3 games Polt won't choke in the final game, but MKP probably would. (I say this as a massive MKP fan.)
At the current state I'd say Polt is stronger than MKP. MKP's way to the ro4 was so much easier than Polt's. Polt beat Alicia, Losira and TOP. MKP's only real challenge was MMA whom he lost to.
Polt has this if he keeps his cool and doesn't get cocky.
MMA's map to make his comeback is this.

Isn't this the map MMA do very well on>? and also turn tide in mma vs mkp?
