So much fucking silly balance whine.

Jaedong is awesome to watch, his mechanics are insane but he makes terrible decisions consistently, whereas Polt has some of the absolute best on-the-fly decision making out there.

I still feel Jaedong is getting a bit too much flak, yeah he's not winning tournaments but his consistency of late has been ridiculous


Agreed. Polt was a sick good WOL terran, and he finally gets what he deserves imo. I really wonder why polt just can't win against jaedong. Is a terran win always because imbalance? What about, you know, the terran being better than the zerg? Isn't that possible?

2 days ago I played in a tournament. It was bo3 and in game 1 I defeated a zerg. He complained: "mines are too strong, I won only because of them". The next game I just went tank marine medivac and stomped him even harder. Awesome feeling. I think zergs are blaming their loses too fast on the widowmine.

Haha.

I mean Polt was fearsome in TvZ in WoL until very close to the end, when pretty much only Innovation was winning TvZs and was playing completely different styles to what he's doing now in HoTS. I remember Polt was playing an MLG on Entombed Valley and did his 3 fac 2/2 tank push miles onto creep, and split his army across multiple screens. Play so good that MLG later re-showed his playercam, was awesome!

Polt rebuilt his entire 1-base centric style that won him the Super Tournament and became a strong macro player without sacrificing his micro chops.

Polt studies (albeit he seems to have quite a bit of free time). Polt streams pretty consistently. Polt is based in NA, which like Violet before him makes me question the foreigner 'if you play in NA you can't get good' line.

But yeah I mean, fuck Polt because he beat Jaedong *sigh*

EDIT: found it myself. http://www.twitch.tv/wcs_america/b/444253757 starting at 5:57 approximately. so many unimportant clips on that twitch channel.

The best part is that Alive whined about TvZ imbalance from the Terran end earlier in the tournament, and said "I hope Scarlett beats me so that Blizzard realizes the match is imbalanced."

I think Polt vs Scarlett would've been a more entertaining series overall, but I also think JD deserved to be in the final.

Mixed feelings I guess :/

Yea between the string of semi-final and final finishes, JD is looking like one of, if not the most consistent player in the foreign scene atm. Imagine if he won the last 4 tournaments he made great placements in, we'd all be singing his praises as one of the best players in the game. Not too much farther for him to go to get there
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Only zergs whine when they have no business complaining, everybody knows that
Terrans and protosses just point out the obvious when they are UP, zergs think they're UP even when they're OP.
