Bly is a monster and one of the best Zerg out of Korea right now. He obviously lost his mindset in the first game there, but it's not like he couldn't beat Polt. In fact, of eleven games they played against each other so far, Bly won six. That means in direct comparison Bly is even better against Polt than Stephano (10 of 22 maps). Bly plays very creative and it's always very entertaininng to watch him. I can't tell why he would be overshadowed so much by Stephano (one guy here didn't even know his name). Edit: Not to mention that he has a reputation of being BM as hell at times which causes people to rate him lower than he actually is. | ||

Stephano isn't that respectful also (especially not against tournament organizers); IdrA is the complete boss of BM and yet he has a huge fanbase (even bigger than he would get by playing), so has Destiny. Bly isn't that big of a flamer though. He flames once in a while, but there are far worse people. I don't get the GoOdy comment, though. Neither does Bly play passive (absolutely not), nor does he prefer specific units extremely or long games. | ||

Why did he leave if they were going to play the quarter finals afterwards? | ||

I'm pretty sure that Bly would not take a map (okay maybe he is quite allinish lol) if it was not played on cross server. | ||

From the ten maps they played on the european server, Stephano won only four (three of them in one Bo5). That's roughly on Blys level. Why would you think Bly can't beat Polt on the same server but Stephano - with an even score on homeserver vs Polt - can? So yeah, I would take that bet. | ||

Before Lone Star, Polt destroyed Stephano - he had Stephano's number and was the favorite each time they met. But come Lone Star, Stephano switched up his style, and he comes out 5-2 vs. Polt. Stylistically, this match up is reset - I don't know who's going to win if they meet in MLG. Bly, meanwhile, did well vs. Polt in the past, but looking at his play, he hasn't figured Polt out. Stephano, for the time being, has Polt figured out, but we do have to see how Polt responds next time they meet. | ||
