The results prove otherwise. Just stop your hardcore fanboyism and give credit to both players | ||

He wins because he's better. He has better timing, he has better reactions, he has better multitasking, and he has great mindgames as evidenced by this last game. His 4-0 win against MMA wasn't a fluke, and, as a reminder, it was kinda in the finals of a gigantic tournament with the best players around. Haters probably gonna hate some more, but at least give him some credit for winning. Stop saying it's MMA who played badly therefore lost, or making up some excuses. Polt played better, he won. As usual. Period.  What? I hope you're joking about better multitasking. His builds are good, control is great, but multitasking? | ||

MMA = Polt is 6-1 MC = Polt is 5-0 It's really shocking at how underrated Polt is here in TL forum. | ||

People saying Polt has better multitasking than MMA is just false, go watch MMA's game against NesTea in the group stages. Polt didn't win Game 3, MMA lost it. MMA scouted the mass hellion, and still pumped Marines EVEN FROM HIS BARRACKS WITH A TECH LAB. This series hardly featured great play from Polt, what it did feature was average play from Polt, and supremely uncharacteristically bad play from MMA. Polt got the win he deserved in this series, but it was more from MMA not playing well than it was from Polt playing well. EDIT: Before I get crucified for being another Polt-hater, he's clearly a very good player. I respect Polt very highly, more highly than a lot of Code S/Code A players, however this was NOT a great series by Polt, it was an average series from a good player, against a terrible series from a good player. Polt 100% deserved the win he got today. | ||

Polt never really amazes me with his play, and admittedly, I'm a big fan of MMA, but I just don't believe that Polt is the undisputed better player overall, just in that matchup. | ||

Great play by Polt, coming from a SlayerS and MMA fan | ||

And it's not like MMA's TvT is bad, he made it to the ST finals purely off of TvT and beat IMHappy, a great TvT player, pretty convincingly. So why do people hate Polt? | ||

Polt let MMA stay in that way too long and lost that orbital and other stuff when he shouldnt have yes, and strategy is clearly not the most important facet in a real-time strategy game. wow, can people just own up and say it like it is--polt owned mma face | ||
