This made me laugh out loud :D


But srsly i expected more from Rain


It's not that Rain is playing particularly bad, Polt is just on point. That Warp Prism might have been a bit of an overcomitment, but he did that as soon as he saw Polt's forces edging around his bases, it's a risky move that can literally win games.

Why wouldn't he?! This is the most important tournament of the year, he'd be a fool not to get sufficient practice, for his fans if nothing else!

I like that Polt is using his map control, Maru would be flying his main to 3rd now.

No, in general. His macro is much better even than when he won WCS against Hydra.
Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes.
