You mean "watch Polt's Code A TvZ"?


You mean watch MKP Code A matches? You realize he goes to Code A because he lost in the group right?

He's still placed higher than Polt bro. I don't get the MKP-Polt comparison, it's pretty clear who the better player is. Polt is essentially even with Stephano or a bit lower with the new metagame. MKP trashed Stephano at MLG last time.


If by trashed you mean almost lost? MKP is still a gimmicky player, 15 cc or all-in, that's all he does. Anyway bro, the facts are you were saying Polt was bad compared to MKP because hes in code a, somewhat unfortunate considering MKP literally just got knocked down into code a.


He's not in Code A. Get your facts straight, please.

He's also the player who has probably the most builds out of any player but yeah, he's definitely "gimmicky" rofl.


He is in Code A, get your facts straight please >_>

He is not. I don't understand why people don't understand Gsl after so many seasons with this format

Marineking is in Code A..... He got 4th place in the ro16. You get dropped to the 3rd round of Code A. If you win you are directly back into code S. if you lose, you go to up and downs

Except you are not in code a officially until you lose up and downs. You realize this is how nestea got his award?

you are not in code a officially the NEXT season but THIS season he is in code A. Nestea got the award for starting every season in Code S


I love how he doesn't respond to this...

What do you do vs that? Rush to 200/200 roaches -> force them into Protoss throat -> win?
I see no way of defending this without blind hardcounter, am i wrong?

8 gate blink robo on 2 base is really all-in... if you then decide to get 3rd without even attacking to do damage don't be surprised if you get crushed.

Awesome build, I'll absolutely steal that for my ladder games drop tech doesn't work most of the time, but when it does, it looks freaking awesome.

This is why there are so many 2 base all-ins for PvZ

i missed the game, i assumed squirtle did a fast 3rd base and symbol hard countered with a mass roach drop(like he does everytime).

LOL, or, you can not tech, get 8 gate, robo and twilight before you take your immensely delayed 3rd... autolose strat right there. Not even 4gate pressure to start....

for people who say to make ghosts

emp vs fungal is very similar to emp vs storm

EMP is only useful against the spellcasters (in tvp it does take off shields, but it's not a whole lot aside from the stalkers and immortals).
fungal/storm is useful against everything

this increases the difficulty in getting the EMP in time before the other spellcasters do something

It's very very tough to the point of some people saying drops might have to be moved to Hive because It's too strong. ( this would also help mech vs roach max drop )

Don't go 8 gate + robo into a 3rd Nexus? I don't know if Squirtle was trying to mind game Symbol, or if he was just indecisive...


No Squirtle's build there is good, just gets hard countered by roach max + drops.

Because he started every season in Code S. MKP has to play in Code A this season. This is not a very difficult concept.

No it is not and I'm glad you understand it.

People talked about the Roach max with drop being impossible to hold, and IDK, it might be true

At least it requires skill to execute, and is risky to the zerg, although it might be hard to hold, at least it promotes micro on both sides.

Basically. Drops make FF useless, and FF is needed to hold that, unless you just go Stargate every game. I think Squirtle should have just gone with the 2 base all in again.

I assume he was trying to go for it, but decided not to after it was scouted. But his build was so inefficient for a macro game and he just ended up so far behind.
