First time I saw his build, I thought he had forgotten Armory. Then he started it at 14'30 the next game too.

The thing about Blizzcon is It's so stacked that there's no obvious favorite, any of the top 16 other than maybe a few players all have the potential to go on a sick run and win the tournament. Most of them are past multiple tournament champions.

Blizzcon I feel will be decided primarily by brackets because every player there has their apparent weaknesses and a bad placement in the brackets could spell the difference between a championship and dropping from the Ro16.

Basically Polt just needs MMA to beat certain players and then demolish him in the finals!

All Polt needs to do is pull some SCVs.


I never saw Polt do that tho.
As good as Polt is, he's a very foreigner style of player, with very little all in play or counterplay specific to a single player.


imo he looks more like MKP, doing his own thing regardless of the current meta/his opponent style. Which leads to some crushing defeats vP


Yeah kinda.
Prime school of Terran I guess. Byun is very much like that also.

Polt in this series: down in supply, pooling 1k minerals, taking the better engagement 100% of the time.

I think he's trying to say that a player is contesting another player's position.

he literraly destroyed alicia on the ro4 iirc by doing exactly that, tons of MMM into multipronged attacks, if one succeed he just snowballs and wins off his micro, if he keeps failing the P can a move once he gets 3-3. i'd hate to play like that, if you're putting yourself on a clock just scv pull at one moment..
Zest fanboy.

Yeah i doubt Polt can win Blizzcon. He was destroyed in S2 finals in r08 or something. But i think he can take WCS America. And to think behind all this, he's not even full time.

To be fair, we didn't see much of him as he went 0-4 vs 1 player. Still, as big a fanboy as I am, I doubt Polt can take Blizzcon w/o serious bracket luck. He's just so stylistic.


I think almost everyone will need some bracket luck. Inno needs to avoid vT. Soulkey need to avoid Inno. The field is so stacked that I don't think any one player is a favorite vs all 15 players. Maru is beatable, SOS, JD, Taeja, Bomber, same...

They're both Prime terrans. Both capable of amazingly good play, and insane come from behind wins. I'm not seeing a problem.

Oh, and heart. Both of them are full of personality.
