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.
You should watch the vods from IEM Cologne.

Polt already beat Classic at IEM
In a weekend tournament with no preparation and classic being outside of Korea for the first time in his life. I think what he meant was have classic and polt face off in a decent environment.

What's there to wonder about? Polt won 3-2 a week ago.
Hail Polt, now #1 TvP in the world.

Classic is legit.
Sadly his performance will be drowned in tears x.x He is quite good and quite underrated indeed. The problem is that when almost every single TvP ends up like this it's hard to tell who is playing good and who is just playing protoss in TvP.
Agreed for game 2 (obv), but game 1 was really good protoss play, and way less common than you may think.

Serious, so many protoss are afraid of the blink cool down nerf. But nothing in that game made the blink cool down necessary...

I think Maru's mindset is: "Why get expensive ghosts when protoss gets 15 HTs, I can never emp them all"
and IF you choose to EMP then you have a ton of archons in your face instead

Isn't TvP supposed to be his strongest match-up?

I'm happy that if you don't make ghosts you loose. And I'm Terran. When was he supposed to get ghosts while he was getting attacked by blink stalkers? I was mostly thinking of game 1. Game 2 was blink on heavy rain, not much to add. yeah but he would have had to back off the pressure which just allows classic to explode in eco/tech
I think you can soft contain 'Toss on 2 bases while getting a third and ghosts. I really believe he over-extended too many times, and the pressure delayed his tech and 3rd so much that he was bound to loose sooner or later. TvP is one base up IMO...
