I wonder how Classic vs Polt would do. Imo Polt goes into ghosts a bit quicker the Maru but he also tries to play a really drop heavy aggressive style, and Classic just handles this shit.

I don't know any Protoss outside Rain maybe who would have lost so little to Polts aggro from game 1. More power to Classic I guess. Glad to see such high level Protoss play.

Good point.

Still, I'm surprised he wouldn't do some multi pronged drop attack or something.

Instead he just charged down the middle.

He tried that in G1 and it did not work. You either can out-drop / out-multitask the toss and force them into making mistakes or you can't. And classic looks to good to crumble from that kind of harass.

Polt already beat Classic at IEM
