I'm not rooting for HerO to lose or anything. I just thought Polt should handle this. like 3-0 handle

The last big series they played against each other had Polt going 2-4, I think.

Some of Polt's decisions towards the end of that game were questionable. He threw away most of his bio and all of his Ghosts, which could have been flying circles around HerO if he'd kept them alive. HerO's army was so immobile...

So nice to see HerO using Templar openings, the games really are a lot more entertaining.

I reckon that HerO's gonna go for an even earlier 3-bases in game 3. Polt doesn't change it up that much between games.

He made only 2 and didn't use them vs the chargelots, which is what mines wreck really really hard. they just died to blinkstalkers

Also he's not aggressive enough in the early/mid game vs HerO I think, templar openings rely on gateway units fora longer time than colossus and get templars/archons out later than the first colossus comes out.

I somehow think Heart and Bomber would be doing better than Polt atm against HerO

We're not saying Polt is doing everything right, but HerO is definitely stretching him mechanicaly with quite an unusual style, hence the mistakes.

It's quite possible we get to see Bomber's interpretation of TvHerO tomorrow.

Is it really that unusual though? It looks like what you'd expect out of HerO.

Maybe not unusual for HerO, but definitely unusual in the current meta.

But it's not a mechanical issue, it's a strategy issue. I mean he built 2 starports in the kss game for god's sake. You DON'T DO THAT vs templar, you get mines!

polt's agro style vs hero's agro style favors hero in most cases. if hero makes it through and plays bomber i would not be surprised at a 3-0 for bomber though, since hero's builds just do not hold up to a proper scv pull (going phoenix into fast charge and storm on 2 base??)

Honestly, if HerO plays like he is now, I think Bomber would lose pretty easily
