Why the fuck are 80% of the posts in the last 9000 pages hating on Polt? The guy is a damn good player and he deserved his win today. Just because MMA is a fan favorite (Yes, I was cheering for him) doesn't take anything away from Polt's victory. Grow up, because both players played well.


For some reason TL is full of MMA fanboy/girls, I guess it's because he won MLG and has a somewhat flashy style, even if he obviously lacks substance in other areas.

Keen went gas first I guess?

Bomber going fast second gas, 2port inc! >_>

I don't get how you guys can claim Polt or MMA is better than each other. It's like playing Rock Papers Scissors and saying Rock is better just because it can beat Scissors.

Fact of the matter is, they both have different attributes and best match ups. MMA has multitasking and endgame mechanics while Polt has better decision making and early game timing attacks, and MMA's definitely a better TvZ whiel Polt is better TvP. Just because Polt can beat MMA in a direct head to head encounter, it doesn't mean he's the better player overall (nor is the other way around). MMA has way higher chance against Nestea does that make him the better player over Polt? definitely not either

I would've liked to see mech vs mech on talarim. That would've been really fun. Plus I feel like he just switched to bio to metagame, maybe out of nerves or something because his build was pretty bad honestly.

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?


i think as spectators we have the right to do that lol. you can say whoever you want is amazing and watch all their games and root for them.. its what its about

Guys, MMA thinks Polt is the better player of the two of them. MMA said this, and I think it's awesome that he admitted it. Can we stop fighting now?

Go go go, Bomber!

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.


Wtf ?! You already got banned for bringing nationality into a discussion. You won't stop, will you ?
Stop being a douche to American people, being French myself, we really don't have much to brag about.
When you play the game of drones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground. Huge IMLosirA fan.

We like his ceremonies so we cheer for him. He did make it into Code S though, which is a bigger accomplishment than a lot of the guys in Code S have got. So he's got that going for him.

Expecting Bomber to crush him.

Because 80% predicted MMA to win.


Just shows how biased and easily swayed alot of people on here are.

The Korean site percentages were close to 50/50 and Optimus fully should have been favored after 4-0'ing MMA recently.

Polt is simply better at TvT at this point in time.

So 1-1-1 is unstoppable in TvT now too? Please


Put more words in my mouth bro. The guy said Polt went marine heavy. He didn't. He went 1/1/1 timing. Marines involved? Yes, but hardly marine heavy considering how important banshees, raven, and tanks are in it.



you need to watch the game. polt had 30+ marines in game 1. 30+ marines off 2 base isn't marine heavy to you?

actually let me ask, what is marine heavy to you, like 9000 marines?
