Maybe he`ll try. He has a double spire muta build he does from time to time on his stream.

lol are you serious?

I can't believe some people whined about how Polt won.
Ge was so patient, only engaged the Blords when he had the perfect positioning(he surrounded the Zerg army at least twice).
But yep T OP >_<
|
Polt is so good at executing this build.
and he really loves it.

Stephano is pretty good with mutas, but he understands how powerful lategame ZvT is now (since ghosts got nerfed). He will always set himself up for that BL/infestor/corruptor army, and the ling/infestor build + fast upgrades is perfect for it.

Polt containing with 6 helions, going for 2 extra rax and stim, seems like his bio push incoming. evo chamber and roach warren for sleep, no 3rd base for him. double upgrades for sleep, starport on the way for polt

Is Bitter high or something? He is really spacy...
"Cheers that block the sun, can they?" uhh
|
Polt won because he killed the 3rd, 4th and 5th just before the Broods came out, giving him a huge economic lead and meaning he could instantly replace lost armies (eg. after taking out the third and in the top left), while Sleep's army just got weaker and weaker after each engagement. Everything else is just a bonus.

time to deny third and clear creep!

Medivacs on the way for polt, bane nest for sleep and a few roaches. first tank starting along with combat shields. polt pushing with his marines+medivacs. all the helions still alive
