Polt cut a lot of corners vs. Stephano - ie no turrets, no scans for burrowed banelings, etc., this is what I noticed the most - any burrowed banelings could have changed things so much. There were several points where stephano took polt down to 25 SCVs, and polt didn't bother rebuilding them, just kept up the non-stop pressure with mules. He couldn't afford to scan. Maybe stephano could afford a few banelings. | ||

I just don't understand how Blizzard is ignoring this issue. Yes I know there was a nerf, but it's too little. By itself fungal is already too strong but it has perfect synergy with broods and banes making the composition, dare I say it, OP. no1 tells you to rely on marines in every game u play. mix it up, play mech sometimes. mech viking can be strong on certain maps. i dont get why 95% of the players always bio in every matchup when mech is clearly viable (prolly not tvp). kind of sad, i love to see mech :/ | ||

Well it's his final litmus test so I'm excited at the prospect. Confident that Naniwa will have something up his sleeve this GSL to at least continue the best foreigner debate for a while longer. It's a different beast entirely due to the level of preparation that can be done, just look at Nestea's performances when outside of that format, not bad but not what we were accustomed to seeing from the guy | ||

He played really well, and Terrans are still doing extremely well in tournaments. Everyone including Stephano lol.. he just said ghosts are bad and Zerg is good. Also, I dont know why people keep saying Terrans are doing "extremely well" in tournaments. Korean Terrans are. Foreign Terrans have been struggling for a very long time. The last one to win a major live event was Jinro at MLG DC... well over a year ago. User was warned for this post | ||

Tanks were double nerfed 60 down to 50 to the current 35 damage. One tank shot can't even kill an upgraded zergling. Thors are slow and gets magic boxed by muta and ineffective vs broods and corruptors. Vikings die vs equal number of corruptors and Battlecruisers are slow as hell and easily mind controled. Thats why. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Very unlikely he will ever play GSL. Just not enough money for others than the winner. And winning it is quite unlikely. Simply not worth it if you want to earn money. | ||
