His opponents just play really stupid and then he wins so he looks like a god. But when they don't, he just gets smashed. He doesn't deathball up, it's pretty obvious why people like his style. It was a pretty damn good style for a while too, I personally just feel that Zergs have gotten a lot better at defending. I don't really think he plays at all similar to Huk at all. His PvT has gotten a lot better, to the extent that it's probably his best matchup. Anyway, not so surprised to see Sniper beat Parting, but was quite surprised that Polt took him out, how did those games go? Using Warp Prism harass doesn't mean he's not deathballing. He plays protoss, of course he deathballs. It's just that when he wins, it looks like his opponent just played like an idiot and didn't respond to what he was doing at all. And when they do he just loses. It's exactly like how Huk used to be. It's not like he just sits with a deathball and has warp-prisms on the map, he frequently splits his army up, harasses with Blink Stalkers while expanding and securing his lategame tech etc.
That's why he lost to Soulkey.
Harass constantly and doesn't have a strong standing army.
Once Soulkey gotten his beautiful deathball, it was over for HerO.

I predict a 2-1 victory for polt, one will be gained by a marauder/hellion all in and the other one will be standard TvZ.

You are just so plain wrong, I don't know how to describe it. It all comes down of how you set your attack up. If you have your further transitions ready and give you the ability to be absolutely fine with pulling back, if you realize that your opponent's defence is too strong, than your attack is not allin. You want an example? Watch Creator's games against DRG and Curious on Daybreak from monday!

sup David Kim. you watchin this? Oh no, A Zergs high gas units beat a protosses high gas units.., Clearly Protoss is underpowered. Also wtf would you blink in like that... 1 protoss left in GSL speaks to this issue even louder than this game People say this every time one race is under-represented.... news flash, sometimes people play bad. The best thing to happen to racial balance in Ro8 was group D. I would say all 4 of those zergs I would pick overall over the 4 who were in other groups. I don't think I could put Soulkey over DRG. The other 3 I definitely concur. DRG has had some inconsistantly lately whereas Soulkey is starting to look like player he was hyped to be. Though I often ignore this I was once told when gambling to always pick team thats hot and that seems to be true with starcraft. Yeah it would obviously depend on whether or not we saw the DRG who made it to OSL finals/smashed his Ro32 group or his OSL finals/Ro16 counterpart.
the OSL-finals DRG was pretty mediocre

Group C
Bogus: 100.00%
Sniper: 65.23%
Polt: 34.77%

Sniper kills everything that is fun.
Eve playing, Slayers final victory, Parting's immortal/sentry all-in. Now he'll kill Polt, the ultimate fun.
He's literally the Fun Killer.

I'm going to avoid watching PvZs from now on; they are not good for my mental well being.

Parting tried his WonWonWon.
Got Crushed.
Parting doesn't have enough soul after all.

HerO's PvZ approach was actually one that the Kespa Protoss players took notes from when they fully switched over, I recall Rain speaking about this in an interview. Now to find it....
Anyway, come on Poltimus

"lategame" is a broodlord/infestor vs. mothership dance, i don't think anyone excels at that, and i think hero is particularly bad at it You're right, nobody excels at that. However HerO will destroy every single zerg base a few times before he loses the battle that nobody can win. I guess that means he's better than most others  still loses :p and that makes his losses even more heartbreaking
Indeed my friend. I suffered a lot.
But at this point blizzard has responded to complaints. So if there's any hope in the future, I do think he'll go back to not losing PvZ.

Bisu said it too and someone else I think.
Go Polt!

Tried and failed miserably.
Polt should beat Sniper. I hope we see some all-inish shenanigans out of him.

If he doesn't win now, I'll hate him for killing PartinG. That tit.

I agree with him, but I don't really know what he's trying to get at...
If you have a heavy gas army as Zerg/Terran and end up losing all your infestors/broodlords/siege tanks/Medivacs without trading cost effectively, then you basically lose the game in most cases.

Is this a prediction? If so, there's now hope for Polt!

Fionn speaks the truth!

hero should swallow his pride and learn a few timings, like creator's famous 3-base or parting's sentry immortal, he would win more
