You win tournaments by proxying 2 rax on Tal'Darim Altar and catching your opponent off-guard. You win by faking out your opponent with a bunker at the natural while you go 1 base cloaked banshee. But you are only a spectator, so you should be happy there are entertaining games instead of just fast cheese wins? Unless you find it more entertaining to watch a 6 minute 2rax game over a 35 minute actionpacked game, in which case you probably represent like 1‰ of the people watching sc2. | ||

Nestea has different strats, stephano typically sticks to one strat. Though I would say their endurance is amazing. Ican never sit through a game longer then 30 mins. And that is blizzard time. | ||

Yeah no reason for Stephano to attack, he was massively ahead in terms of workers, it was up to Polt to kill him which probably wouldn't have happened since hes been playing far too passively, probably coulda won ez had he just expanded and turtled | ||

If Polt can even up the score to 2-2 I think he can also take the best of 5 and I don't know how long Stephano can compete on such an insanely high level against someone like Polt. I think Polt might have the better stamina as he should be used to a tough schedule, but lets see. I just enjoy the games. Would love to see another bo5 no thanks supposed to work in 3 hours | ||

With all his hatcheries he just had to kill that army and the pressure stopped. Polt was really lacking on income and was making only marines. He couldn't even afford the tanks because his minerals income was so low, he had like 1.5k gas. | ||
