A game where skill matters? What we want is a game that is equally skilled for both sides at all stages of the game. If you think that is the case, you are deluding yourself. Well its far from being the final version...

Lucky was stuck on 3 bases whole game long and prolly did not have the resources to throw down defenses, not to mention the fact that he was dealing with Polt's constant aggression throughout the midgame.

All we want is good caster feedback that is based in reality so we can improve :[ I think it took you guys a little too long to realize when the momentum had shifted towards Polt. You were still acting like Lucky had the advantage due to his huge army even though he was losing his Hive, pool, greater spire, infestor den, basically all production.
well so far i understood, they said the zerg has a scary army and polt can't engage. Didn't see anything else. Having an unbeatable army doesn't mean you are ahead. Especially on a map like antiga. Only bit of information i was missing that polt was waiting for the infestors to leave the broodlords, so his marines can jump under them and lucky did good not leaving the broods unguarded, while his bases got destroyed.

Add the difficulty of getting a fourth on Antiga as well

I was pretty sad that Polt could lose after that amazing bling defence... What followed left me ecstatic...

I really dislike TBs casting. Too much exaggeration about how much everything matters... aswell as how smart or beautiful something was. In addition to this most of his calls sadly aren't true. On the other hand MrBitter and Khaldor are doing a very good job. Mostly spot-on analysis, some bias towards certain (zerg)players and they seem passionate about what's happening. I don't want to bash any casters (killing eSports) but listening to TB is just meh.

Well it's pretty silly that you can get a 14 infestor 10 BLs deathball with 3 bases in the begining.

Lucky wasted so much energy when he threw like 40-50 IT to snipe the planetary

Polt you are an genius LOOL really? - FINALLY some HOPE for Terran? Where the heck have you been, Terrans NEVER did REALLY bad. You obviously haven't followed the GSL then.Now, I wonder how Lucky's mental state is. Losing like that can crush mental strength. Or will he pull himself together and fight his way back?
You are correct, mainly because I am not that interested in it and additionally it gets streamed very unfortunate times for me. So please enlighten me - give me the sitrep - how bad is it for terran in the GSL.

to be honest only way terran can win this is superior multitasking like polt showed and a zerg who really fucks up his creep spreed and stays on 3 base.

You can't make your army more mobile even if you are super gosu multi-tasking do you honestly think that spines can stop what polt's drop did? He sent more than just a drop ship of marines.

I guess ppl will call this a reaction by polt to seeing roaches.

Some great textbook play and decision-making on both sides. I saw only good decision making on Polt's side. Lucky should have won that game if he didn't lose everything to drops. Why are people even talking about Ghosts not being built? There was no economy for that.
no econ? just because terran cant mass them anymore doesnt mean you cant make 2-3 for emp.

lol Polt and his marauders ahahaha
