They were photographing. The caster came back and in made him turn sideways so they could get a better shot.

I'm a MMA fanboy, but you can't deny that he choked pretty bad and Polt played lights out all 4 games. I hope people will finally respect Polt for being an amazing player now.

So isn't the GSL Code A qualifiers this weekend? Anyone know any timings or where we can find results?

He did have a reaction, it comes about 5-10s after the OC was destroyed though. Watch the video of the game and you'll see his jaw drop in the portrait window at the bottom >.<

You should watch OSL's and MSL's, that was nothing.

Well I believed he was a great player and he was going to be the first underdog to bring us a good finals. But I didn't expect him to win and NEVER in the fashion he did so.

Most people treat Liquibet like a popularity contest. I pretty much disregard everyone's mention of their Liquibet unless I can ctrl-F their name on the first page of the rankings.

A) MMA has charisma/is likeable. Polt doesn't/isn't. He has no story. This is massive in Starcraft whether we like it or not. See Bisu, see Jaedong, see pretty much every successful player in BW. B) People want epic games. MMA choked and Polt didn't. Doesn't take anything away from Polt but it's not exactly exciting.

MKP and POlt real bromance <3

Also we can all celebrate that, that is probably the last time we will ever see LegalMind's face.

That Trophy looks so much better then the other ones imo.

So what happend? MMA chokes, Polt playes rush/offensive terran and MMA loses all 4 games rather than Polt winning them.
We get a boring finals, people polarize and care either way but truth be told a 4-0 finals is never a good or a fun thing, I don't care if Polt outplayed MMA... MMA played like shit and there was no contest, thus it was boring to see.
meh... What? MMA was the one who rushed Polt in Game 4 and got completely smacked down. You didn't watch the game.. His attack was successful. He got owned by the counter banshee, just like in the MKP game.
don't blame polt for MMA doing the same repetitive build that polt's teammate have seen and defeated just last week.
|
Sad But time to watch Dreamhack a bit then back to studying.
|
It also sucked that all the games ended so early. No macro games just like last season.
|
Polt was so calm, composed, CONFIDENT in the pre game talk. A little smile, no shake, no nerve. He won before entering the booth.
Awesome end
|
Well, I agree with John. MMA just screams potential, even if it's not this time, he's gunna make it big. I feel it!
