Sorry, but what a stupid comment.

Both are great players. It was a great series. Stephano played better this series, but they're both S class players, in my mind.

But I gotta say, I'm sick of fungal now. Even if you need ghost to emp them, the spell is just so dumb and it dumbs down the game even more by taking micro away from battles = boring.


terrans would be able to stim and kite and rape zerg so easy if it wasnt for fungal

Not if it was a slow. And not if zerg would flank the kiting path.

Polt going to get knocked out of code s pretty easily if he plays gsl like he did today. Can't believe how many mistakes polt made. He played way better at assembly.


He didn't play badly at all today. It's more like Stephano figured out all his tendencies and abused them. That doesn't bode well for next season, since everyone will know what Polt's weaknesses are as well.

HE'S DONE IT.

Stephano 5-2'd Polt this tournament. Won him in WB and won him without using the Bo5 advantage in the GF.

This is HUGE for Stephano. This is the moment when he can look at himself and say - you know what, I can do ANYTHING if I put my mind to it. Looking very good for him now in the MLG and IPL - not against Polt, since Polt will go back and rework his play to counter Stephano - but now Stephano can continue with his run.

The money isn't that important. The confidence boost is huge.

P.S. No shoes was his secret.

I honestly want to know why Polt doesn't make ghosts. Sure, they're a waste of money and supply against everything except infestors, but... well ok, I guess that's probably why.



it makes no sense to me. polt really needs to incorporate it into his game if he wants to beat infestor heavy play like what stephano was abusing vs him.

It's a valid comment. Polt was code B and got a code s seed. He certainly didn't display code s level play today. He played quite disappointing today. Can't count how many free tanks polt gave away each game or how many times he blew away leads.

I'm sorta wondering what Polt was supposed to do against that army. Ghosts prob would've been cost inefficient and with Snipe and EMP nerfed it's a bit hard to justify them. Infestors counter the marines. Hm. What could he have done?

Man, Polt needs to learn how to leave games. He's not going to beat the 100 supply Stephano with 20 supply and 1 mining base.


It's way better to do this than to have Idra GG timing...
He actually don't have observer mode and do'nt know how his opponent is doing...
When it's the last game you do you prefer to be sure


But he did it in game 1 and 2! Polt had like 30 supply and Stephano was streaming units in his base and he just sat there.

It's cool to play till you lose but no need ONCE you've lost to stick in the game and try and drag it out.

Its not like he was floating buildings off into the corner of the map or anything. Its worth taking the time to collect yourself at the very least if you have to play another game right away, just sort of get emotionally settled. There is no obligation to leave and it was not BM at all - really just seems like you are searching for something to complain about to be honest.
You'll never get better being an angry nerd sitting alone in your room.

I'm hoping for some continued future DRG vs Genius team MvP rivalry. The antics are fun as well as high level games
