Polt NEVER makes ghost even before the ghost nerf. Stop saying he doesn't built them because they got nerfed. They just WEREN'T ever part of his strats


This. Polt's sticking to his own style.


He's from the MMA kind.
No ghost even when they were good.

Only MVP was the Ghost guy.


MVP single handedly got Ghosts nerfed.


I dunno, Thorzain was a really good ghost user too and probably played a part. Not as good as MVP obviously but pretty darn good.

Mvp did it on GSL and main stages. Mvp is the sole reason why ghost became huge after players saw how easy late game zerg units die to snipe


Morrow used ghosts about the same time he started playing TvZ instead of ZvZ.

Why do terrans ALWAYS choose a time when zerg wins a terran to whine about the snipe nerf? Once again I will say this, POLT NEVER USES GHOST EVEN BEFORE SNIPE NERF. He has already said it doesn't affect him since he doesn't use ghost. And using polt as an example actually proves that terran's don't HAVE TO use snipe to win. noobs


and we're saying that maybe he should reconsider? All he has to do is land two really good emps and the fungals are nullified. That's most of the damage being done to the marines gone, plus it allows him to micro. Maybe he could win without ghosts before, but against infestor broodlord its kind of crucial. Infestors are what keep the marines from a-moving under the broods...

He has consistenly win stephano, one of the best brood lord infestor player, without using ghosts. He doesn't A move against broods, he does drops which are very strong against bl/infestor since they are so slow. AND he does a concave wrap around the zerg army to force zergs to use fungals EVERYWHERE draining their energy. But I agree, he should get some to snipe infestors. the only reason why stephano is winning I feel is because of his infestors.

Does polt ever use ghosts late game?


Ghosts are useless now with the sniper nerf.


Wrong. Ghosts are useless for sniping Broodlords. Ghosts are broken against infestors, which are the sole reason Polt is losing. If he adds ghosts, snipes the infestors, or even EMP's them. He will win.


Wrong. Infestors aren't even the main problem when facing that army. The main problem are Ultras and Broodlord and your lack of DPS against these units, hence why you either need marauders or vikings. Ghosts are not worth the investement just to emp infestors, they are essentially useless now against every other unit.

They never should've been an answer to every teir 3 zerg unit in the first place.

Then what is the answer?None , that's why every late game ends up in a base trade or an easy win.

God please, you are talking shit in every thread Terran doesn't win. YES the infestors are the main problem of that combination. Broodlord / corruper alone? No problem, I will stim 60 marines under it and you can't see how fast the army evaporates.

You seriously whine every post you make and state your opinion as a fact. How can you be so terrible? Seriously even if people are trying to give really good advice you continue to bash all those suggestions. A few EMPs would have greatly helped Polt, as he also spreads out insanely well, but I will not say it would have won him the game.

Stephano does babysit his army / infestors insanely well but one thing would be to move marauders in front to snipe infestors, as marauders will make short work of them.

PLEASE just try to work on you you state your opinion. I only agree with the fact that there is a certain death-style army of Zerg that is VERY HARD to take on, even though not impossible, but very very hard on certain maps.

Polt must've suspected that Stephano would do this, since that's the smart thing to do when up 2-0 in a Bo5. He likely chose this build because he knew it could hold a roach rush.
