Exactly. He just needs to hit Bomber in the final, where Bomber is expected to fail given his pattern:

ro16->ro8->ro4 -> now

though tbh, I think we'll be having a PvP final between Rain and First

Shit fanboys say, man.

I wanted Polt to win - Prime alumni and USA - but damn if First didn't think his way out of that series. Call him the BrainToss because that was some high minded play, right there. Mechanics are great, but it is always awesome to see people really strategerize on the fly, like that. I love it.


probably not on the fly, when you play tons of games these situations (killing the reaper) happen and you plan them out. Still brilliant tho

TvP is dead nowadays, unless you have the perfect sense for scv-pulling. That's it pretty much.


Yeah no, not exactly


Well, if you don't want to pull with a FE build then you're asking to lose.


You're asking to lose with that attitude. You could also watch players like Polt, Taeja, Innovation, Maru, etc. who do just fine lategame.


Lol, don't you think I haven't tried? I've come to the conclusion it's useless to go to the lategame. Scv pull every toss yolo swag, they deserve it.


Well if you've come to that conclusion it must be true


If Bomber kills First EZ all the time, it must be true. So yh it's true.

Indeed. Polt has very good strategic thinking when it comes to armymovement, which I guess is why he favours a big army over upgrades, but his overall strategies were an F those games. First was given a pretty easy victory.

Also PvT is fucking hard for terran

Damnit I have the feeling that Duckdeok will kill both Naniwa and Jaedong and thus killing 2 of my favorites<.<

Polt played awfully and although it was frustrating not seeing any close fights, he was the worse player and deserved the schooling

I didn't think of that. That's probably not the first time he's been in that situation.

Yeah, still great though, recognizing the situation and reacting so perfectly.
