Please have some respect for the players, teams, and tournament. Criticism is fine, criticism without anything to back it up isn't so cool. Thanks! | ||

His TvZ is good because he's a Code S player but it's his worst matchup and his TvZ has never been anything to shout about to compared to MMA, Mvp, MKP and even newer player like Jjakji and Alive are way more proven. Beating Stephano is ZvT doesn't make you a top TvZ player. Polt's record vs DRG, Leenock, Nestea, July, Curious and other top ZvT players is very poor. | ||

Polt is in the LB Bracket with Spades, Stephano's opponent is not yet known. If I had to guess then Stephano's next opponent is from the glon/Ddoro match but that's not based on any evidence. | ||

The games really didn't come down to speed, though. Polt wasn't playing his best (not controlling his hellions correctly, etc), but his predictable style was just eaten up. Sheth has probably watched every single Polt vs. Stephano game and countered him. He knew the six hellion/marine-medivac timing was coming and if he could defend that, he could expand and be more aggressive. Just no variation from Polt. It is still his weakest match-up, but he really should have been able to play better than that. Oh well, Sheth played absolutely the way to beat Polt. If Polt is going to do the same build every game and try to force a late-mid/late game fight on 4+ bases, then just hold his six hellion/marine early pressure and then keep up pushing with lings/banes so he can't comfortably get up a third. In game one, Sheth knew exactly when the timing was coming and countered with banes, pretty much killing any chance Polt had except if Sheth bungled it hard. In game two, Polt did the same exact build, killed maybe a few creep, but Sheth already knew it was coming and held. Polt didn't get countered as easily, but Sheth just dropped him, killed more economy and basically gave himself a big lead again. | ||
