It's kind of just random with how people chose builds, I guess you can say they mindgame better to figure out the build.

Why not just make two turrets, one in the main, one in the nat. I know 200 minerals make a lot diffrence in this stage. But loosing 20 scvs does as well.

not enough to stop banshees

I feel like, in general, they are not often just go for a 20 mins no rush game and their timings are pretty fuckng crisp.

It was a build order win. It happens all the time in TvT.

it's much easier to come back from such a BO loss in TvT compared to BO losses in other mirrors though

So I guess Polt shows again that he has probably the worst banshee-defense in all of professional SC2.

Okay, Polt can turn around a lot of dire situations but this looks impossible to win for him at this point.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Not when it's fast three CC with just hellions vs. cloaked banshees.

To be honest, Bbyong kinda handled that pretty meh. He should have won when Polt had two marines + same number of hellions vs. a cloaked banshee + same number of hellions.

Surgical play by Bbyong. Now Polt knows what´s up and can hopefully come up with something more clever.

Well true... but then why do this build xD I mean its not like he would be miles ahead of a player who just plays a normal game, i feel like the reward does not warrant the risk.

He just could have made a starport instead of the second factory and get vikings muuuuch quicker.

exactly, i'm not quite sure why polt would choose such a build that rolls over and dies to a relatively common opening

Polt can win this, those banshees really destroyed him in the early game but I am sure he will do better in the following game.
