the Top 10 terrans are all so disgustingly good and close to each other so Polt taking a bo3 off mvp isnt that much of an upset.

Now it seems obvious, but marauder/ tank push is not something you can really say ever happens. it seems he scouted mvp's mech builds and found a weakness and exploited it with an abnormal timing attack


Well he might have studied him but first game was not tank / marauder but plain old tank marine and yet he still lost to that push and frankly he should have messed up badly not too. Second game Polt saw he was doing the same thing and added marauders to the mix to own him. That was not a timing attack but a huge window of opportunity that Polt exploited, MVPs build was like "BHG 20 minutes no rush" ffs

Polt does a really unique build though. I guess it was specially prepared for MVP.


This is actually a build he has done for months in TvT. Just lined up well against what MVP was doing.


Really? I never saw it quite like this.


Usually he don't put so many marauders into it, but since MVP mech so often this slight variation helped a ton.

I agree... Polt is a true tournement player and is so dangerous in all 3 matchups. A perfect Terran.. never gives up, aggressive, superb micro and knows how to exploit the weaknesses of his opponent


Yep great micro and superb aggressive builds. Especially love his helion marine marauder play vs zerg.

IMO top terrans at the moment

1.Taeja
2.MKP
3.Polt

I might even put him at number 2... MMA is having a resurgence but I would still give polt the nod.

Yes he does, but most of those games were 2011, so they aren't as relevant to Mvp's and Polt's current situations. It is far more even now, though Mvp still is better at TvT than Polt objectively.



Noooo Mvp! ( Seriously, When can your sickness be healed?

Yeah, he's been doing it for a while (before this too, it was just one of the first examples I found searching backwards)

obviously you make your choices on when to research siege/whether to go vikings or medivacs depending on what you've seen.

To be honest, I'm not sure his writs had an impact on this serie outside of less practice than usual.
But during the game ? Meeeh
