IMO, Stephano lost when his opening was made massively ineffective by Polt not being aggressive at all that early. Polt almost gave Stephano the game later on by sloppy play, but Stephano just played from behind the whole game.

Stephano played well, but Polt is just too awesome!

I'm sorry but the people that say Stephano is Code S and one of the best players in the world are simply mistaken.

When I watch Leenock or dongraegu I'm in awe at how they are all over the map at once and control the game so well.

Stephano barely spreads creep, doesnt make spines and spores at his expansions, and sacrifices way too much. He's the best foreigner, but people need to calm down with their Stephano heralding.
Everyone is either delusional, a nihlilst, or dead from suicide.

Stop trying to play BL's against Polt marines, for fuck's sake


Because marauder already in the composition before t3 and that many tanks make ultras super viable...



Many tanks?

After Polt lost all the tanks on the left of the map he literally stopped making any more.

Just tech switch to Ultras rather than making 10 more useless corruptors (he didn't even had them following the BL's).

How so? I'd say that was the reason why he did so well, since Polt was blind hardcountering Stephano's ultra style. It caught him completely offguard and he lost his 4th in the middle due to it

Alongside MMA/DRG, Polt/Stephano is the best rivalry in SC2.


I've really enjoyed reading your passion for Polt over the weekend. I'm a Toss player, but I enjoy watching him as well!


I would say Hero/Puma is pretty cool, not the best but it is very good as well. Not only do the players meet often in finals, they have traded wins and the teams they are on are also rivals in a sense

What? Almost every Polt/Stephano game i've seen so far was incredibly close, even tho Stephano lost the vast majority of them.

These two are very deserving of winner's finals, and I would like nothing more to see them both duke it out in the grand finals too.

Not enough money/time. Polt would have killed him by that time.

The casters complaining about Stephano's opening in my head sounds like: "Why aren't these super high level pros not using the absolute most standard, common builds to deal with their extremely high level opponent? Everyone knows you don't change and adapt to your opponent, just do the same thing over and over until it works."
