One usually chokes the round before they face each other..

This pretty much. People need to stop underrating Polt. He's a good player who lost to someone who is better at the matchup. And not just anyone, it was Bomber, the best TvT'er in the world.

Polt just couldnt deal with it lol Of course thats an BO loss , if you go cloak Banshee you only have a few Marines you can't deal with Blue Flame Helions at all unless your opponent runs into your Marines.
You can be extra safe against it and build a bunker behind your mineral line, or have a viking out following the banshee, which can both fend off medevacs and do pretty good damage vs helions as well.
On another note, I really miss Marine tank TvT, it seems so much more exciting to watch a ton of marines dash in and then run out before dying to a massive siege volley.

Polt just couldnt deal with it lol Nothing can be done if you have 1 banshee and 4 hellions land in your base and you have only marines. NOTHING. So its a BO loss. Yes, but he could have handled it much better. (Attacking hellions with scvs?) He saw the incoming drop with the banshee and didn't react at all. I refuse to believe that the best response at that moment is to fly away with the banshee and clump up your scvs 
Understand Polt's situation. Polt did not see the turret in Bomber's mineral line, I believe,when the first Banshee died. He saw 4 hellions dropped. NO WAY 1 Banshee can stop the hellions before almost all the SCVs are killed.
Best way to handle the situation - Polt thinks Bomber has no detection meaning his banshee can kill all of Bomber's SCVs.

If people hate on Polt for being Optimus, can't wait till HongUn upsets MC, Nestea and then Bomber in the finals to become the new Optimus.

I dont know what you are trying to say but building turrets and a later expansion is pretty standard for a blueflame build. With a banshee opening an earlier cc is common so less marines. Lets see you defend vs blueflame(controlled by a good player) while doing a banshee opening with a quick cc. You dont know what you are talking about.

Qft. Somebody suggested Polt attack the hellions with SCVs = handling the situation better.... jeez -.-

I would be overjoyed if this happened. I reckon that is exactly what that team should do. Winner becomes Optimus until he loses.

Bomber had no detection and 5marines, and Polt's 2 cloak banshee managed to kill 3 marines.
Meanwhile polt had 6 or so marines. with good split micro you could take minimal loses, while doing huge dmg to the other player, coming out even. instead he did no dmg and lost everything.

Yeah we don't need to brand players and get them name recognition so they are attractive to sponsors at all :o Also confused fans is always fun!
