Protosses should know that you don't beat Polt by attacking him, you have to attack on 2 base or use warp prisms
see his series vs HerO at IEM Cologne

I have a hard time believing this story by Lilbow tbh. I just can't picture that he couldn't ask TLO or Snute for example and practice with them. I mean those guys are not Life, and they also have no incentive to pratice, but I have a hard time believing that TLO for example would turn down such a request.

TLO has played LotV for months. Snute went on a break and then started playing LotV. Practice against them would be a waste unless they were willing to 'waste' a lot of their time to get up to snuff with HotS and forget about getting good at LotV beta (and even then Lilbow would probably lose any ways).


So you're telling me TLO needs 100 pratice games to pull of ling runbys and baneling busts? Lilbow didn't loose to some next level starcraft. He looked like a mid master player in these games.

Yea, that's exactly what would have helped Lilbow! Practicing vs 100 Ling runbys in a row! Then he would have beat Life!!!!!!!!!!


You're makin up a false dichotomy. Nobody expected him to beat life. Nobody is angry about him not beating life. People are angry, because he didn't try. Trying your hardest is at the heart of every serious competition, and if you don't try you might as well don't bother.


What's your evidence that he didn't try? Do you think he threw the games?


No. Because he didn't practice. He didn't take it seriously. He didn't lose on purpose, but he didn't put in any effort.


So Zains' original counter to your point is valid.


That because Snute and TLO weren't playing HotS, Lilbow shouldn't have either? They didn't need to practice for WCS Finals....

Who would he practice against?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!?! Shit players on EU ladder are worse practice than LotV honestly.


He only plays with two other players!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
That's a mistake.
But whatever. I'm moving on to enjoying the rest of the tournament now

Polt! Polt! Polt!

Great, patient macro, he was ahead on supply for a long time, but I was worried that Rain's lategame would take it. Polt's mid-game moves and decisions are just too good!
