If he had bomber's macro he'd be unstoppable.
Polt's weakness is that his mechanics are not as perfect as the other top tier Terrans.
His decision making and micro however are as good as anyone in the world, his ability to hang on and fight through comebacks is matched only by Maru I feel at this point.

Polt's macro in full swing now

Bomber is someone that can be said is the opposite.
Godly macro, but makes boneheaded decisions that loses him games.

He will at least cast tomorrow's group and most likely the rest of WCS AM as well.

The ultimate Terran would be a player with Bomber's macro, Polt's Bio micro and decision making and Mvp's tendency to just win.

I'd adjust this to.
Taeja's macro, Maru's Micro, Polt's tactical decision making and MVP's build orders.

Would have been interesting to see that fight before it was 3/4 over

Polt Marauders are like HyuN Roaches, your chances of winning decline slightly when they build that unit.
