Would definitely have been much closer. Polt's handling of that situation was pretty great though, especially given how long he seemed to be unaware that Sjow was meching.

When Polt pulled his SCVs to attack the tanks on the ramp, the scvs got stuck on the hellions and the tanks killed the scvs and the hellions because of the splash. Then without hellions, the push was doomed.


Oh okay, thanks for explaining, I was like: what where did the Hellions go..

Bio is much better than mech when they are both in small numbers.

It was pretty obvious what was going to happen from the moment Polt went arount Sjow's army.

Actually he moved out at a good timing, he was 20 supply ahead and in a good position. Just failed to handle the counter attack properly.


Moving out in the first place is a bad decision - you siege his natural, okay. He drops your main with his 4-5 medivacs full of marines and marauders - what are you going to do? Base trade with 20 hellions and 5 tanks? You're not going to win that.

Sjow's strategy was to kill Polt in one big attack, but there's no way you *contain* a bio player.

Yeah, I think alot of players would not have pulled the SCVs down the ramps to kill Sjow's hellions, and thats what killed Sjow's push outright, it was well played by Polt.

...an awful ladder map.

Doesn't change that SjoW had poor decisionmaking there, though.


I was so sure you were Zerg when seing your comment.
Ohana is fine.
I was so sure you were Terran when seeing your comment.

^_^ It's not a fine map. It's a step in the wrong direction.

Edit: Anyway, getting into a long discussion about that is for another time. Luckily it's a mirror so it don't matter.

You mean it weeds out the worse players so the better players who practice more and are able to adapt to new maps better wins?

i didn't say that new maps shouldn't be introduced into tourneys but maps that are new to ladder and to a lot of players without allowing the metagame to develop on them will always produce bad games, I'm sorry you can't see that

Coming back to smaller maps is something obvious after we got to monstrous thing like Terminus or Cal before the Storm.

with mech either you turtle like mad vs bio and outlast them or you go super heavy aggresive in the midgame with basicly an allin which was sjow was aiming for. He just didnt had a tower and 2 tanks at home vs the counter which is a big risk in doing this strat.
