Makes his talk before this game seem like more than just trash talk. Is Polt really THAT much of a sportsman? What a guy. He didn't vetoed the big maps previously and that is the big difference. But i don't think he just let Scarlett win those lol.

In those games, you're always going to be looking at a situation where you feel like 7 banes matter more than +2 air at the moment but the upgrade is still going to help a lot in the long run, especially with muta counts of 20+ which are basically needed in that kind of games

"Is it a monkey?" - Day9.
|
He also got long spawning positions in first series, and now its close spawns, luck is on Polt side now.
|
|
lol that awkward moment when you get a runby into the natural and nothing is mining there yet
|
Polt isn't very prepared for this.
Still holds it off with fairly low casualties. Scarlett cut a lot of Drone production and Polt got OCs.
|
I feel like Polt is in a decent position
Decent given the circumstances, that is
|
why would she try to charge the ramp before banes? she could have prevented mining while waiting 5-10 seconds for the baneling nest and then done a bust, instead she let lings derp AI at the wall being shot by hellions, wtf?
|
i really like how she switched everything here. though she must really hurry up with another attack.
|
No third for Scarlett, Polt is ahead
|
Hmm I don't like Scarlet still staying on 2 bases.
|
Scarlett is pretty all-in with this 1/1 Roach + Bane timing.

My guess is she was afraid that Polt would have too many unit if given those ~35 second it would take to get the nest up and morph banes. That's a whole production cycle.

That worked better than I expected
|
too bad polt didn't hold because that scv split was like mona lisa level
