Wow! I did not expect this result! I decided to go to bed after the ownage in game 1 due to how late it had gotten. DRG vs SC made up for staying up that late though.

Another disappointing boring finals, filled with BO wins and games that play out in the first five minutes.

Ugh. MMA should of just played standard safe builds not relying on harassment
Try another route paperboy.

I just said the exact same thing aloud, and I'm just by myself. Oh my god, this guy is seriously good, and might actually be the best Terran in the world now.

I'm sorry, Polt would be the 172th SC2 bonjwa (DRG became the 171th by winning game 1 of the gimmick tournament), I know it can be hard to keep up.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

should have been.

I think 3/4 of the games were BO losses though.
that being said, Polt prepared really well for this while MMA pulled a Bisu

Well considering all MMA has been playing are TvTs, Polt had a lot of study material to go on for preparation for this finals...

ManaO that isn't 100k in US money moron, it's like 80k or something.

... still surprised there's no Polt fanclub up yet. In the works or no one cares enough?


Polt may have won respect for winning the super tournament, but that's not the same thing as winning the love and adoration of fans. Polt played well, but until he plays inspirationally he won't have a particularly large fanbase. Nestea was the consensus best Korean Zerg ever since GSL2, but it wasn't until his jawdropping, nerdchilling series against anypro and sC that he became hyper popular. In fact Nestea's fanclub was only made after that semifinal against sC iirc.

I thought Polt won over many people today with his "balls of steel" play in set2. His marine micro while in the face of siege tank fire was amazing. Even Tastosis was blown away by it. His play earned him the nickname of Daredevil terran. However, there will always been a large number of Polt haters, many of them who ignores his tremendous record ever since his loss to Jinro.

We're not taking anything away from Polt or saying he didn't play that well. He played amazing and showed that he is well prepared and had a lot of confident. What we're saying is he needs a "style" and/or epic inspiring games in order to be lovable by more fans in order to gain a fan base. And no, "nice micro" isn't really a good trait unless it is a jaw droping micro that no one has ever seen (like how MKP showed the marine micro against banelings that no one knew is possible at that time).

Lets look at the fan favourties:

Fruitdealer: First to use banelings so creatively, risky aggressive style, inspiring first season (you guys still remember his game 3 vs OgsTops in season 1?)
MKP: Marine style, jaw-dropping marine micros, inspiring base trade styles (his games vs nada anyone?)
MC: Has a build named after him that involves heavy sentry push. One of the best at Micro.
MVP: Probably has the best game mechanics out of anyone in the game.
Nestea: Reactionary style. Can react and counter everything throne at him. His game vs SC was undoubtedly one of the best games in SC2 history. Just overall very inspirational plays
MMA: Boxer style drop play. Never seen anyone drop as much as him especially in ZvT; sometimes even the observer couldn't follow along. His GSTL wins are no doubt some of the best games and comebacks as well.

So now you look at Polt. He is just someone that has above average in all department, and never make many mistakes. All in all, nothing really special or inspiring. Nothing I can actually think back and say "that was cool and epic!"


Remember how much hate oov got when he was dominating the scene? "So boring, so mechanical...not exciting."

Sounds a lot like a player I know.

Actually, the conversion rate is: 0.00094.
That means it is 94k usd. He was much closer to the price and you called him a moron.
