Wow Sheth is playing pretty well but Polt's macro is absurd...

Seems like TL really wants to avoid bringing out Hero until Polt is dead.

seems like you studied his replays after Assembly


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.


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



Well you could see it this game as well, the EU Zergs tend to go a lot of lings and if they are not too greedy to get banelings (at least a few) you won't do a lot with your push. So... since most of us are not as cost efficient as Polt with positioning and control in his midgame pokes and we are behind in upgrades we usually get overwhelmed.. at least if you don't do it right so yes, If you are behind in upgrades such as 1-0 vs 2-2... you die. Thats why Polt USUALLY playes a bit more defensive, he just went to be a bit more agressive here because mutas were so late and he had a very good engagement vs roach/ling/bane with marines and 4 medivacs.

Now he's so far ahead that he cannot lose if he just playes it out correct.

Doa has called Sheth "Ret" more times than "Sheth", despite CatsPajamas distinctly correcting him over and over again lol

According to gosudoa.. Ret's been playing this entire game.

Polt is crazy, at no point in this game has Sheth ever been ahead in supply.

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.

HerO!! So close, FINISH HIMM!!!
