The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained.

Exactly. Terran is doing well, Protoss is doing OK, and Zerg is struggling.

The tournament had 9 Korean Terrans, 6 Korean Protoss, and 2 Korean Zergs.

This is not a coincidence, and the only race that is imba is Korea


Eh, don't want to go into balance talk, but it was like that for a reason. IIRC, 0 Korean Zergs qualified and LIfe/Leenock were seeded in.

But the qualifiers were during the Hellbat drop week which Blizzard patched pretty darn fast once everyone brought it to their attention. I saw games that were literally won off the first 4 hellbats + medivac.



one change does not invalidate all those games, it's not like every game was a hellbat drop come on now.


You must not have watched those games



Actually I did watch a few .

Pointless to keep arguing though, let's see if life can beat a mid-tier korean terran.




Mid tier?

Polt has been the most consistent top level Korean pro outside of MVP for the entirety of SC2. He always shows up, always puts up good results and somehow ALWAYS keeps improving.

You cannot call him mid tier, he's way better than that.


haha so true ^^ polt is an AMAZING terran, calling him mid tier terran cleary shows us that u dont know this race very well ^^

Life did over extend at the end of that game. He should have regrouped his units and went in one last time instead of sending in a few small groups streaming in to die. Im not sure he could have won anyways though I think that hidden base gave polt the game.
The thing with drops is just the speed that marauders can destroy those bases I mean its gone in like 5 seconds and the zerg if he is too far even if he sees it ends up losing it by the time he gets back.

the whole denying expansions thing is much harder for zerg to do cause of repair and pfs. well played by polt to harass so well with bio while building up a massive bank


Creep and burrow.


yeah, that can stop them from landing briefly but there's little opportunity for zerg to actually take out an established expansion unless the player brings their entire army to siege it, and in the meantime the terran can take out 2 expos with some medivac drops while even potentially defending theirs. perhaps life's mistake was in allowing polt to set up the expansions in the first place, though it's kinda difficult to attack into a defended position unless z has a t3 army composition
hell is other people

didn't see MVP vs. MC. How was it?


MVP with some misteps in game five from MC's all in cost MVP in the end

MC also used those oracle to harass workers and slow the eco of MVP's. MC got 10 to 15 scv kills with a few oracles alone. well worth the investment in game 3 for MC.

Polt is very mid-tier these days.

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-korean/players/1856_Polt/games

Theres tons of terran who can do what he does only better.


Yeah. If you're even looking at what you just linked you'd notice that unless your "high tier" is only 1% of all pro players (so like 3 terrans) then he's not mid-tier
