Lighten up on Bomber. He got 4th at one of the most stacked tournaments of all time taking out incredible players along the way. his performance was not a disappointment, and just because he didn't play his best in the last game doesn't mean the tournament was a failure. Anyways gj Bomber and GOGO POLT! <3

Polt is consistently good but never really hits great heights, and he needs to do that to touch Leenock.

Bomber does awful stuff like this game 3, but is capable of playing better games if he is in the zone.


Never hits great heights? That is ridiculous.

Leenock already destroyed polt at ipl 2-0 pretty easily. It's a walkover win for leenock. Polt has 0% chance of beating leenock. Good for me though since I want leenock to win!


Leenock won with a roach rush that Polt actually held, but then got tricked by and then lost pretty handily. Do I think Polt can beat Leenock in two Bo5's? Hell no, but why do people think Bomber is some God of TvZ? It's always been his weakest match-up. Leenock kicked Bomber's ass at MLG Dallas and made him look silly.

Im guessing you didnt see Bomber vs DRG. My favorite series of all of IPL AND GSL RO4.

viOLet has the best chance against Leenock D:


Exactly.

Yes, Bomber beat Symbol and DRG, but Polt has won the last two series against DRG and routinely beats Symbol. People have such short attention spans.


Eh. The more current the results the more applicable they are to the current situation. I'd still give a slight edge to Bomber vs Z than polt but regardless both still look hopeless against leenock.

Leenock isn't losing this tournament, It's a battle for second place and by also getting second place they get into the GSL grand tour. Polt has to make it so It's not 5 zerg 4 protoss and Mvp.

Why must this be true.. why

I love Bomber vZ


he didn't disappoint, he did well this tournament (and lately in general)

He pretty much threw that last game away, he had a big lead but kept getting caught unsieged or without support for the tanks.

Polt was there to exploit every weakness Bomber left open.

Bomber might have better macro and micro, but imo Mvp is still the master of mech. Still remember his GSL final game vs TOP on daybreak

Not at all. MVP's bio play stands no chance against zerg, and his mech play isn't that great either


Mvp's mech games during his IEM victory run was the most dominate TvZ I've seen in months.

I'm pretty sure I saw Mvp beat Symbol 3-1 with bio in S4.

hmm? I think Bomber and Polt are about equal in regards to TvZ.

They both have an equal chance of getting their asses handed to them by Leenock and beating Violet. :0

When polt was playing defensively, bomber did use his hellions to take out Scvs. He killed a lot. However with a mech army, you can't just have tanks. Polts first drop that was unsuccessful was actually the best thing he did. When it was spotted, bomber moved everything back, allowing polt to take the watch tower, mid, and start playing offensively.

Once he started going on the offense, bomb couldn't afford to spare any hellions because his tanks would be left vulnerable. They were vulnerable as it is, so he didn't think he could allocate hellions towards harass, because he would just die.

if you want polt to win, just bet that you will eat your nipples if the Z loses. I guarantee you he will win

Mvp, mech, and not great in the same sentence. You don't have my respect.

I think Bomber is insanely good and a Top 4 Terran when he's on form, and I was impressed by his TvZ this weekend, but historically his TvZ has never been super impressive.

Someone post that Seal creep picture.
