He doesn't have to split like Maru, his play is just very tactically solid. Been trying to learn his style recently, but since I'm a scrub I haven't yet had success with it but I feel like pro Terrans should be able to learn it, no? Who knows what holes this have when the top protoss try to counter it i.e: prepare for a semi/finals i mean: he looked good on a weekend like forgg looked good 3 weeks ago or so. Imo only Code S decides which styles are viable | ||

Before it was just on occasion. It is just almost guaranteed storm damage if you do it right. You can´t EMP HTs in warp prism and it also makes it impossible to stutter step without getting stormed. | ||

Guess he died along with the Hellbat nerfs  Still, it's really hard not to be happy for Lilbow and XMG, nice to see a new player rise to stardom through WCS the same way Bunny did last year. How long ago was the hellbat nerf? He looked fantastic at Asus, I'm sure he will bounce back. | ||

Polt's advantages come from two things: His tactical decisions and his hyper map awareness. His units are always in the right place at the right time and he is able to see the map without using actual scouts or scans. Its not something you can just grind out from endless practice or we would have seen another Terran at least play somewhat similar to him by now. The only other Terran that I know plays like that is Ryung when hes in extremely good form. Thats it. | ||

You should tell ME, so I can take care of it for you. You can't trust Darkhorse, he'll drop an a on you or something. | ||

Eh... ghosts still do pretty decent damage, and they're more tanky than bio, it's just that they're too slow to retreat with properly so you get fucked if you try to pull back. Pound for pound, HT are just more effective than ghosts, and two landed storms are way more devastating than two landed EMPs, but it's not as cut and dry. I also feel like the maps really screw you sometimes, like on Polar Night defending as Terran you have no room to kite or split against storms, but at the same time if it's too open like Heavy Rain you get blunk. I dunno, I really think the #2 issue in TvP is maps (#1 being MSC making Protoss too safe pre-12 minutes), but I don't really know what you do to fix these maps. | ||

The only other Terran that I know plays like that is Ryung when hes in extremely good form. Thats it. Polt's army movement is extremely different from any other terran's. He seems to keep 1 more army subgroup than whatever the P has - 2 vs 1, 3 vs 2, etc, and constantly survey for tiny little cracks in the P defense. Most good terrans (even code S level) are still playing for head-on engagements, whereas Polt is playing with bio the way Life plays with lings. | ||
