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!

Rain's control was a bit sloppy. But I'm already impressed with Polt's play.

He was trying to decide - move for the basetrade without observers, or try to save your base?

You assume Polt doesn't just 3-0?

I predicted Rain to win 3:1

He blamed Life for that bad series. ffs.
I get that he thought he'd lose, but this is inconsistent with his earlier excuses that the reason why he didn't practice is because his buddies were all playing LotV and that the HotS ladder is dead.

It's not inconsistent? All he said was "this tournament that is NOT winnable for an european that can't even practice whatsoever".

You should never underestimate Polt when it matters, he is timeless.

Damn, TLO seems mad.

Of course he is. He is as angry as he should be. He did a shameful display. What are people going to think of the foreign scene after that ? This is our best representative ?


He can still redeem himself at DH Winter, I just don't get why anybody expected something different. It was phisically impossible to get efficient practice for this during the last 4 weeks.

Of course he should've still done better than he did, because you don't lose 3 games like this in a row. Even if you played only LotV.


Honestly, getting crushed like this happens. But the attitude, especially THIS is what bothers me.


But again, there was no way for him to practice!

If he went to Korea for practice, every single replay would've been sent to Life.

So he stayed in EU, but there the server has been dead since WCS Season 3.

It was a dilemma, so he chose to focus on DH winter, I don't blame him. He could've still done better today though, even while playing HotS, losing 3 games like this in a row is not necessary.


Why would you assume that your replays would be sent to Life?
Is it that safe to assume that no Koreans are willing to help out Lilbow and knowingly disadvantage him?
Wouldn't Koreans want a less mechanically gifted player to go through Life so that they won't have to face Life?

I think you might not know koreans


I am Korean....

Are you a korean starcraft pro, though?


Who cares? thats just you with an unfair stereotype


Unfair to put it very mildly.
Very easily could be considered "racist"...

fyi. I am not, so I must not know koreans at all despite being one...

Life was indeed not helping. Naturally, he doesn't care if the series is not fun. He planned the bust, it worked and he just decided to follow up with cheese since lilbow defended it really sloppy, or maybe because he wanted it to look bad.
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

He streamed LotV for a couple of weeks then stopped, and yes being a Korean does give you practice opportunities.

having a strong practice partners net and connections between teams for practice is something the foreign scene will have to work on for LotV.
