this. If herO changes up now, it could mess up Polt's thoughts on what he will do.

What the fuck ? Terran going mech would be like Protoss going fast Carriers. It's not a strategy, it's a suicide.

I don't understand this comment, it's a strong opening, that gives a lot of flexibility and drop defense. Why wouldn't he?


Yeah, I'm just pleased P have found such a good opener. Better than whimpering in the main until Colo/HT and wait for drops.

Good but not great. This last game was really good though.

don't listen to this guy, the series has been amazing so far

Game 1 was meh. I missed game 2 I apologize I was in the shower. Game three was good. Game 4 was awesome.


Polt stole game 2 like a theif in the night.

People frown on "abusive," play when if they were in herO's position they would do the same thing every time. /shrug.

herO gonna open blink 100%. If Polt survives the blink relatively unscathed the odds of him winning increase to (imo) sliiiiiightly over 50%

Polt wins on Frost and Habitation Station, herO wins on Yeonsu and Polar Night.

Very predictable.

Take evenly matched opponents and the map decides it. Daedalus is good for herO especially since he's opening Blink every game.

There's no way you can make polt's win on habitation station about the map.


You're right you can't.

I'm more speaking about how the results are predictable if you didn't watch the games and just saw the map pool.

So far the results have been exactly what I've expected 2-2 with this exact map score and it's due to how Blink friendly Yeonsu and Polar Night are.

Dull to watch? That's an odd complaint. Regardless of how you feel about balance it is hard to deny that these blink openings result in constant action and tension

yeah because protoss going for blink allin/pressure 80% of pvt games is very popular amongst viewers right?

i'm not talking about researching blink eventually.

It's like the eras when Terrans were opening 2rax stim, or 1-1-1 every game.
