Aww, what an unfortunate ending. Looks like Polt couldn't micro at all.
Couldn't lift depots in time, micro marines back in time, move away SCVs in time.

Oh well, GL to Polt in Bronze match.

Huge amounts of lag, not excusing polts lackluster play but that was bad.

it was quite risky by Nerchio.. had he not killed the Polt with that attack he would have been dead himself..
and btw, he didn't counter Polt's build it was a blind attack

Terrible series.

Here's to a less laggy and better played one between MKP and Creator =)

This is so cool.
Polt generally has extremely meticulous, pre-planned and generally safe builds.
It's so cool to see him play something so greedy and unexpected, I feel it's an important part of any well rounded Terran, if not well-rounded player in general.


ye, very cool stuff, he notices how nerchio doesn't challenge the map at all so just goes for it

nice

i just hope he starts putting the extra minerals into aggression asap, otherwise he's getting rolled again


He really doesn't have to do any sort of timings.
If Nerchio continues to try and get to 4-5 base broodlord army again, Polt will simply max out much faster and kill Nerchio before he can transition.


if the zerg identifies at any point that you're macro-ing and not doing a timing, the game is over then and there...

meh, don't matter anyway cos polt's play was just no bueno

Oh wow Polt is a lot worse than he was a couple months ago.


Polt has been playing really great recently.
I watched some of his TSL4 qualifier games. His control and decision making is still really good.
Nerchio is without a doubt one of the best foreigners, so it's not completely mind blowing he won again Polt, but that certainly was not Polt's A game.

Crap I didn't realize today started so much earlier than yesterday and I won't be able to watch marineking vs creator. Sad there won't be a marineking vs polt finals. Hope mkp can take it all

That game reminded me of how Stephano beat Polt in game 3 at MLG. He countered Polt's early third with a great Roach/Ling timing. I think Polt just might want to scout better at times, or at least play a little safer, especially at the last game of that series.

This definitely isn't Polts normal game. Miss raising depots 2 times and didnt move the scvs at this naturals against banes until its so late. Guess blame the lag.

1. it was way too late to be a counter, the 3rd base was already extremely effective

2. afaik he didnt even know about it

very undeserved win.

Lag is quite a huge issue in cross-server tournaments, and it possibly played a role in Polt's rather bad play. We aren't denying that Nerchio is a good player, we are saying that Polt's play was not like his usual, and lag may have played a role in that.

(Thank's Asha' )

Noone is purely blaming it on lag but it did affect the game quite a bit,.

Not denying Nerchio's skill, but Polt's reaction times were very off in that series. He is not the kind of guy to screw up his micro you know

Polt played really poorly especially his macro, the lag looked pretty bad but that's not the only reason he lost.

dude, every zerg and their mother is having their breakout tournament and is destroying everything nowadays... let's calm down a bit on the "monster" and "raping koreans" stuff

nerchio always played and will always play really good, polt didn't look like himself, lag can be tilting when you lose etc

the games were what they were, no reasons to jump to random conclusions
