For a while I thought we could send this game to Stephano but it seems that Polt has the top foreign zerg numbers.

If Ret's going to win this game, TSL's most likely going to send out Polt IMO.
Then hopefully Sheth or HerO finishes it off.


Not bad, but only the first condition of your prediction has come true so far. Now let's see if the second will too.

Was microing really intensively during the push and dealing with the Bane/Ling bust aggression by Ret. If you noticed RIGHT after he defended, the camera panned over the natural and he dropped EIGHT MULES(ish).


That's how Polt rolls man. There's lings and banes all over his shit, production, scvs, etc. You think he's fucked and the battle ends and he's got 15 more supply.

Polt was never in a bad situation in that game.


He was down 73 drones to 45 SCVs, 3 base to two. I think he did have more energy on his OCs than I thought he did, I never saw the mules that the other guy above me saw.

I think Polt will play reactor hellion (6) into 16 marine 2 medivac pressure to either cancel the 3rd or drop the main with a fast 3rd cc. :p

When Ret got overlord speed, for a moment I had hopes for zerg drop being his plan. He needed smth like that to break in - either nydus or drops. Meanwhile Polt with a couple of medivacs could just bring in some small groups of units and kill hatcheries. Ret didn't kill CCs here, and mules make up for a large loss of SCVs.

Uh, the baneling bust happened at polt's third, so no, he was not on two base


You also have to remember that his timing attack killed a lot of drones, and even the base, so in reality he was never really that behind

He put down 6-8 mules at his outside natural, which count for 24-32 SCVS, so they were pretty much even on workers without having to sacrifice army supply.

I could have described the build in detail even haha. Yes, I've studied his TvZ quiet a bit, its just a very good build. The thing is most Zergs tend to go for either in-base macro hatch or mass ling with fast 1/1 into fast 2/2 into ultras which is actually quiet good if you are not spot on with timings and how Polt playes it.

I wouldn't say it counters what Polt does play, but it certainly can put the Zerg very ahead as you cannot really pressure mass ling 1/1 with that build if the Zerg keeps an eye on what you do. Also you will be behind in midgame in terms of upgrades so you have to sit back.

Anyways, yup^_^ Polt fan here.

love polts positioning with marines always, but nice baneling move from sheth when the hellions got surrounded by them and almost got the marines too.

Both Ret and Sheth out of position when Polt decides to push

Oh.. That's why i usually lose to very heavy ling play into a very fast 3-3 Ultra bust when playing Polt build ?
