Okay, hopefully that is the upset of the evening.

An UPSET ? Knowing Polt 4-0d him a month ago ? :/

Looking at liquibet percentages, yeah.

This is not an upset, this just proves 80% of TL users are Americans.

lol ) exactly my thoughts

Bomber creams every Terran, even MVP. Except Byun, but that series was the most confusing shift I've ever seen.

Puma is probably even better than Bomber in TvT.


Based on what? Puma is good no doubt but Bomber has the best TvT in the world.. I wouldn't even say Puma is top5 TvT.



Puma - Polt is 1-0

Puma's only TvT results have been from team leagues lol

Seriously don't know how people can say how Puma is a better TvTer than a person who is 5-2 against MVP recently

don't you just love seeing haters eat their words?

nope, worse player winning.


you are a perfect example of what i said

not really, MMA is the better overall player. Just how it is.


lol I love this foreigner bias for MMA after MLG columbus.

No MMA is not a better overall player, Polt knows how to study and play against specific opponents.


Thats what I dont like about Polt, he prepares 'sniping' builds, I dont feel like he could beat MMA, who I believe is a better player, in a straight up macro game.

Got lucky in the last set, no way he could've known MMA was gonna suddenly switch to Marine-Tank but it worked out pretty well for him.


hmm in this 3rd game they went to 4 base. what's a straight up macro game to you? turtle on your half of the map for half an hour?

lol the Polt hate around here is so strange

Super tournement all over again. I remember when he beat people like losira etc. It was just cause his opponents played bad.


Surprises me how many people truly think X player won 10 sets in a row just because all of his opponents played badly. Good players make their opponents make mistakes.

Compared to Polt, MMA definitely has better game mechanics (micro, multitasking, etc), but Polt definitely has better decision making and timing attacks. Pretty much every game Polt has won vs MMA is either due to an early timing attack or build order win. That isn't to say Polt doesn't deserve his wins, as decision making and knowledge of timings are all important attributes that make a great player.


Exactly my thoughts. Polts decision making was superior in this series.

TL hates Polt for absolutely no reason. Koreans already admit him to be one of the top players especially TvP.


he IS the best TvP in the world. Bomber has a nice lategame tvp but overall polt is still better


How does he have the best TvP? Honestly, what decent terran worth mentioning doesn't have a strong winning record vP?

His mechanics are subpar so just on that note I doubt he TvP is thebest.


Mvp is comparatively bad vs P. So is MMA.


60% vs 40%

not comparable


I'm not comparing them. Mvp's TvP vs his TvT and TvZ is bad. So is MMA's.

Polt invented the 1/1/1. MVP refuses to use it. Of course he's bad at TvP.

Kidding aside, Polt and Bomber have the best TvPs out there.


wtf is this about? Polt has best Non 1/1/1 TvP. He hardly uses 1/1/1.

To add on, the original polt timing attack didnt even involve tanks

then why is he winning?


Well I believe there are 200+ pages of threads on that point :p

MMA is better but only slightly unlike what some people are claiming. I don't think anyone will argue that both players played below their best and Polt just made less mistakes overall.

IMO Keen is over-rated and Bomber will win easily if he doesn't screwed up like he did against Byun.

Definition time for TL:

BO loss: My favorite player lost
Good at timing attacks: He sucks at "real" games that require "real-time" strategy


Cheese: Polt proxies a rax
Genius: Boxer proxies a rax

All-in cheesy piece of crap: HongUn does a two base timing
Fantastic timing: MC does a two base timing

Am I doing it right?
