You need +1 range on those turrets too. And armor upgrade if you can afford it.

Building armour's the best upgrade!

Polt also lost like ~10 marines while simply running away from that force. Just a bad game

Looks like Polt is having one of his lifeless tournaments again, where he just goes about things robotically instead of using his tactical prowess.

What exactly happened? Twitch is loading for me for 5 mins now and I can't see anything.

Dear goes full upgrades (except thermal lance, because he is dear) while polt does nothing to punish him. Deathball comes, and deathball takes it.

Ok, thanks. When I last saw something, Polt was still 30 supply up, so I was kinda confused about the sudden situation in this LR.

Focus fire your vikings, not have 10-20 supply doing some sort of zerg run by, not being down 2 upgrades

You never played Terran, have you?

Add some bunkers with +2 capacity for extra wall off potential.

Tell me with a straight face that he is playing near the same level he was on when winning his championships. There are holes in his play all over.

Three things I could think of.

Earlier upgrades for once. Polt wasnt greedy at all with upgrades, Dear was very greedy.

Also the ghost academy into 4-5 (?) ghost didnt help. 3-5 extra vikings and more bio would be much better.

Last but not least he had a descent chunk of his army attacking (and failing to zealot warpins) at the P third as well as getting a bit of his army picked off pre-battle (2 vikings most notably). Add those two together and he might have another 30 supply of just.... stuff. Which will help him.

Its a rare situation when Terran is even on upgrades.

It reminds me of Taeja making it to the Ro4 in the GSL after Summer of Taeja was already over and he was dealing with health issues and his play was awful.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Polt would probably hold that if he didn't delay his 2nd engineering bay and armory for so long.
He could have had 2-2 when that fight happened.


Ah that explains. This game just felt so......unreal.
Why can't I quit you, siege tank? FanTaSy, Mvp.

yeah this whole series is sloppy. But people are being a joke when it comes to dear. He is talked about like a new age seed or sniper, everytime he does not roflstomp his opponent.

Thanks Artosis!

Many.. Many ways to stop this... Not have half your army doing nothing and dying. Focus fire with vikings, punish the toss way earlier 3-3 upgrade charge and blink is not fucking cheap many windows of oppurtunity to do damage.

This build should not have worked at all. You shouldn't be asking how Terran stops it... You should be asking how the fuck did Polt just lose to that lol
