A majority of Polt's losses to Zerg happen in the early and mid game. If you let him get to end game, you can count the number of zergs that beat him there on one hand.

I think you can count all Zergs consistently winning end game in any non-mirror on one hand.

How many have beaten him?

I think that Scarlett's one of them, no?

Scarlett, Stephano, Lenock, vioLet.

Though he never played Soulkey/Life/soO in their primes. And a lot of mechanical zergs beat him really often in early and mid game.

Scarlett's beaten him the most of anyone, no?

I agree. When Zerg hits T3 its like watching polt demolish a protoss player.

The aesthetics of this map (bridgehead) is wonderful. Love it. Makes for great games too. I hope it stays for a long time.

What does others think?

Thankfully Zergs have stopped proxy hatching.

This isn't the Polt I'm used to seeing. That's pretty greedy for Polt, isn't it? I usually see him with safe 2-base builds before adding that 3rd cc.

Polt's probably happy that he isn't playing against Starbuck right now.

Maybe he can cut corners now that he gets the polt banshee instead of the polt viking.

You only live once. Sometimes, you sacrifice your probability of winning for some spice and diversity

Cutting corners when he isn't the best mechanical Terran player isn't the best plan in my mind, but if it wins games, it wins games. Obviously he knows much more about StarCraft than I do.
