FUCK YEAH POLT

So well deserved!

How is it well deserved when he was owned first game and got a free win second game because Violet had a brain fart?

It was obvious Violet was very tilted last game.


Owned first game?

He got countered baneling busted.

So if you lose to a counter baneling bust, you aren't getting owned, you're instead deserving a win? Polt was denying all creepspread and had full map control, the fact that Violet got that counter baneling bust off says a lot more about Polts play than it does Violets, and once that bust was completed, Violet was completely in control and looked unstoppable.

I saw nothing in those games indicating Polt deserved the win more, other than Violet making a really surprising mistake and getting tilted hardcore. With all the games where Polt actually does 100% derserve the win, I'd say this is a pretty bad series to bring it up.


Sorry, no one is entitled to anything in competition. Violet had a good army in Game 2 but couldn't manuever it correctly, and he choked in the clutch. Then Game 3 comes up and he chokes again with an ill-advised baneling bust. He didn't deserve to win the series with such terrible mistakes. Funny how you only hear this stuff from people who don't compete in anything.

Nor did I say Violet deserved the win, I'm saying it's dumb to say it was "well deserved" for Polt when he won because of Violet making massive mistakes. It's like saying it's a well deserved win if a bronze league player wins against Stephano because Stephano is disconnected from the game.


There's a difference between disconnecting and not being able to keep up with your opponent killing all your bases. Your comparison would work if Polt was doing absolutely nothing to try and got lucky. He literally was killing base after base, building after building for the last part of the game.

Being disconnected from the game is a factor that is out of Stephano's control. Moving your broodlords around competently and not cracking under pressure is a factor Violet can perfectly control. Polt is better than Violet. Fail analogy is fail.

Incontrol beating Sleep aside, no upsets have happened in the WB thus far - the favorites all pulled it through.

White-Ra is the last hope for a major upset.

Of course there's a difference, it was just an analogy. The point is that Polt hardly deserved the win in game 2 since Violet would have won the game if he made 2 extractors, which he could have done. To be well deserving of a win, you shouldn't be in a situation where you've already lost and is winning because of opponents making dumb mistakes. It's not like Polt made Violet make the mistakes he did, he just got lucky, which he said himself after the game.

You can't seriously be making the case that violet lost because of his broodlord control? It was literally up to forgetting to build extractors. That's literally all it took, he would have won easily if he just put those extractors down.

Polt being a better player than Violet doesn't mean his win in this series was well deserved.
