Anticipating that second 4 medivac into the main was extremely important. That would have killed so much but it did jack shit instead.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

I would want to see people try to use ghosts again. Except NOT as anti brood lord. I would love to see massive snipes to bring down the infestors/corruptors AND to have vikings. Let the vikings take out the brood lords, the ghosts are to counter fungals and help bring down corruptors (which they wouldn't do all their damage too so snipe is useful)

How does Stephano do that? It boggles my mind.


Because Polt didn't attack him for 10 minutes and let him get whatever he wanted.


No, that's the point where stephano was ahead, but then polt pulled back with that huge drop in the main.

Yet his second 4 medivac drop that did no dmg lost polt the game.

Stephano just took the opportunity and overran polt who just lost 40 supply for nothing.

Polt kept throwing away Vikings, he just lost all his units piecemeal.
Never make a hydralisk.

I have no idea how Stephano came back to win this.....

I think it was that one really bad engagement in the middle.
Stephano had great fungals, tanks were unsieged. Then Polt lost all his vikings.

And the 4 medivacs in the second drop that was completely crushed.
I had a good night of sleep.

Look at polt's face. He's pissed. I think he's going to tear stephano apart in the next game.

Polt waited too long. Weird to say, but he tried to macro too much. He had the big advantage after he wrecked Stephano's main, but instead of pushing his lead, he just...waited, made more CC's and let Stephano max up again.


yeah... he let him live and stephano remaxed

Stephano is on a 3 game win streak right now vs Polt.

Stephano doesn't make the same mistake twice. That second doom drop would have won the game against a lot of zergs.

This. His welcoming committee the second time really was a tipping point.

Polt needs to adapt to Stephano's new style. Just like Stephano adapted to Polt after Assembly.

Really amazing games, some of the best I've seen, and that includes the GSL.

These are the kind of games that you could show anyone, even those who don't understand SC, and they'd be like "Woah, what was that?".

GJ Stephano & Polt, very close game.
