Beautiful game by Polt.
Am I the only one that finds Greatorp clueless most of the time? No, I think he jumps to conclusions really easily. Like he sees one thing happen in favor of one player and just like extrapolates that that is the reason they lost. No macro grasp of the situation. Goswser calls him out on most things, though.
Thankfully there is a Z in this group, can't say Goswser was good at calling stuff in the previous series

Come on Polt! Close it out!

As much as I want Polt to win, that game wasn't even impressive. He played sloppy and was behind all game, but then got 2 lucky widow mine connections that killed like 20 banelings and suddenly he can just go kill all the mining bases and win...
Nobody plays well, it's just what we want to think

Well you can hardly say Polt was playing up to his usual self... I don't know if I'd call it lucky, but he was behind all game due to playing rather badly at the start.

i can't help but think that gretorp hasn't had much time to play the game lately.
usually his calls are very good.
in these last few casts that i've been watching, i feel like he is making the same mistakes that so many rookie casters make of calling the game based on each battle and on the units tab without understanding the longer arc of the game.
that's too bad because i used to love his analysis

keeping his hellions alive would be nice to begin with

Terran plays worse and wins according to the casters.

I thought he was great with Frodan. With Goswser it's as if he's caught up in calling games/hyping things to the point where it's detrimental to the cast. Flashback to NASL season 1 for me T.T.

Jaedong used to use this build back when he sucked at ZvT. It's a good way to steal a win.
