That's actually the worst conspiracy theory I've ever heard in my life.

Nah, he once knocked MC to Code B, but he never beat MVP.

Most likely somewhere in between 50 or 100 million. Bet some Sundance will tweet about it later.

I think he was referring to using ultralisks, and in TT1's own way, stated that he thinks ret is better than the score from that series

I think this would be really silly as there is still a chance he could have made the final still, but it would be good tihnking to mindgame considering that large tourneys might be coming up and he didn't want to give away his zvt style just for polt

Hopefully he can take down the tournament so he can get into Spring Arena 2. He changed his 6 hellion into initial marine pressure + hellions with fast third into the style you just saw. I've followed him quiet a bit now and he worked around his build and has double ebay earlier, a slower 3rd and less units, but a stronger force and build overall.
Somehow, I feel the new build he use can be abused with a strong timing before his production kick in. The hellions / banshee, or hellions / 2 medivac marines later than usual are here to keep Zerg from attacking, but still.

First Jinrolled.
Then Minrolled.
Now, Monster Truck.

I'm not talking about making a BL / Ultra army.
But going only ultra is bad. Ultra ling infestor, or Ultra ling bane are what you should be aimed at. Having 12 Ultra and nothing else is BAD.
