This looks really good! I think Polt will take it because of his sick PvT, but if Hero can consitently take it to the late game I think he could win . I will definitely try to tune in!

Let's see how HerO performs when not under pressure. Should be a good showmatch!

He plays for 400$. How can you say there's "no pressure"?

The pressure is probably not that huge compared to an offline tourament.

if HerO can play against Polt the way he plays against PuMa, the games are going to be sick. Still think/hope Polt takes it though ^^

LOLOLOLOLOL best comment I've read in a while.

Maybe he's in GSL because his mechanics are actually top-tier.


Polt's mechanics always struck me as extremely solid, but never his stand-out factor. His stand-out factor has got to be his insane sense of timing. He always hits when his opponent is most vulnerable and just makes it look silly.


He never plays fast, but he rarely ever makes mistakes. Unfortunately he doesn't seem to want to play faster.

Polt slow? Unless you're trolling or watching a different Polt I can't see how you can say that maybe he had an off day the time you were watching?

Anyway, both players are very talented, should be an epic matchup, gl to both

I don't think it will be as bad as people are saying. I'll give it 4-2 for Polt. I'm a big HerO fan though and I can't wait to see what he has prepared.

gogo HerO

I watch his stream every single day when he plays.

Slow =/= bad mechanics. The BW player with the best mechanics in the pro scene, Flash, only has "average" APM among pro gamers. Conversely Vibe has one of the highest APMs in SC2 but his mechanics are low-tier. Polt has some of the best mechanics among Korean terrans simply because he can accomplish everything other Terrans can do, but more efficiently and with less actions (in an informal sense, good mechanics is merely being able to do what you want with the least amount of effort). The drawback is that he doesn't like to get as aggressive with small groups of units as MMA or sC.

Go Polt! Show us you are the true Hero sc2 deserves

Polt looks really slow on stream but that is because every single one of his actions is efficient, if its needed he can get up to 200 apm aswell.

Polt's TvP isn't really as good as his record indicates and Hero's PvT isn't really as bad as his record indicates, but Polt should still take this.
