Polt at 11, Sleep at 5. sleep going for standard fast expo+gas and a pretty late pool. Polt going for standard reactor helions and apparently a fake bunker rush Bunker finishes, polt killing like 5-6 lings with 3 marines, salvages the bunker. sleep making a spine, polt's first helions on the way 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 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 polt damaging the morphing 3rd for sleep. Polt slightly ahead on food. many upgrades and mutas on the way for sleep. polt pushing again with a handful of marines. polt sieging up the 3rd of sleep with 3 tanks and a lot of marines. Sleep trying to kill the reinforcements. Sleep manages to flank the tanks and rines, sleep 30 supply ahead now , going to harass with 5-6 mutas now but no big damage done. Polt securing a 3rd. 2-2 done with sleep putting him well ahead of polt. Sleep not getting a 4th yet Polt going for a thor and mech upgrades, Sleep finally getting a 4th and morphing the greater spire. both sides maxed but sleep's army is only lings and blings. Sleep attacks into polt's siege line, they change armies, supply is dead even. Sleep going for broods now. Sleep going for 3-3 upgrades, infestors with pathogen and brood lords. Polt making vikings, he is ahead on supply now. Polt doing a 2-pronged attack, one of them kilils a mining base. broodlords repel the army . Polt drops A LOT of marines into sleeps main. he basically outmanouvers the broods now. Polt going for a 4th and 5th. even though he has no hard counter against broods he is ahead on eco and has a way bigger army. Polt decimates sleeps death ball with a beautiful concave of thors/vikings. Sleep ggs, he was outplayed badly.
to continue the LR, Polt spawned on the stage. Rachel attacked with the most awkward interview possible. Polt gg's.

Yeah, I mean in MLG I can understand because all the downtime between games. But this tourney feels like they are interviewing people every 15 seconds. There is so much you can ask

2:30 AM... FFFFUUUUUU I think I'll have to see the Polt Stephano rematch via VOD tomorrow..
I still think Polt will come back to take it, but not so sure after being down 2-1 before.
|
ITS SERIOUS BUSINESS for Polt.
That means it's Polting time.
|
This could be a very long series of back to back bo5s.

I knew Sleep was dead when I saw that so many times at Assemply the same thing happend when he played vs Stephano but then his macro kicks in before the zerg got time to kill him and then surdenly he got max upgrades and just kills everything.

But Stephano said himself he doesn't like using mutas/sucks with them. Maybe he`ll try. He has a double spire muta build he does from time to time on his stream. and he's actually quite good with mutas it's funny. he even said so today (after beating polt) that he was poor with mutas. but, when he used it against polt in the other tournament, i agree with you, i thought he was quite good with them.
maybe he considers himself "poor" with them because he compares it to how he does in another tech path.

Anyone know when the final starts?

Off the side interviews from this tournament were really good but the "a sec before a game" interviews piss me off so much (can't even start to think how much it annoys the actual player).
|
Where can I find the VOD:s for this tournament? I really want to see the final but potentially 2 Bo5s? This might go on for many hours and well that is going to be a bit crazy..
|
too excited for what will hopefully be two Bo5s to start! the games between stephano and polt are too epic for me to want anything else but it to go the distance =)

Plus, they've already "interviewed" Polt like 4 times this tourney. At least get someone new each time. :S

Maybe Stephano is just playing mindgames to trick Polt into thinking that he wont make mutas.
