he probably choose the map because stephano could be less experienced playing on it

That game went very well for stephano because Polt's opening with the banshees didn't pay off. They didn't really do any damage, and as soon as Stephano had stopped the banshees, he knew there would be no pressure for several minutes, so he instantly droned to like 90. Polt's style in the previous game was a lot more deadly because followup pushes can come much earlier in the game, so it isn't nearly as safe to build as many drones.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

Oh the irony of that statement, lol.

These games are amazing, really enjoying them. Bit monotonous lategame though, been away from watching regularly have people given up on lategame ghost entirely since the patch?

More or less. I don't know if ghosts are THAT bad now, but it seems pros certainly think that way, they don't even make ghosts to deal with Infestors even though they have been buffed in that regard.


I've seen one single pro build ghosts in late game TvZ since the patch. It was Jjakji and he won...but his opponent was Jookto so you'd kind of expect him to have.

Just a few to snipe infestors?

Polt 200 supply Stephano 150 but then BL/Infestor
SC2 was doomed from the start.

Quite interisting to see a non-retarded Zerg using corruptors to counter Medivacs drop and not floating over 3k minerals but instead having mass spines at his expansions...

Stephano is smart, he knows as long Polt doesn't get an early advantage there's nothing he and Terran can do against well-microed broodlords/infestors with 4-5 base support.

This is Polt's map. Would be pretty big for Stephano to beat him here

He beat Polt in MLG didn't he?


And Goody beat Nestea you point is?

His point was likely that he's not "the shittiest player in the community."

either way, stephano hasn't been "crushed so hard" in either game so far.

Very nice game, horrible map ><

Final game on Daybreak please?


The hype surrounding CK seems so strange to me. Back in the day, it was an issue that it was so so very hard to take a third. Why would it be considered a good thing to make the fourth severely hard to take this day and age?
