Different styles I think. Taeja at his best would never lose a straight up fight with immaculate ghost viking control. Polt completely controls the map.

Eight base Polt in a moderately active macro game? I've only seen that in my ladder games, and that was sick.

You've seen Polt in your ladder games? Wow

for MMMVG maybe, but not for pure GV imo

well GV is Byun... right?

anyway, i remember when Taeja was sooooo far ahead of everyone else in ghots usage and control; in the ESV weekly, he was showing the most insane TvP

It's more of a polt thing than anything else.

Rain's play is super underwelming mechanic wise..... Bad multitasking overall by him

His multitask and mechanics are really good (or used to be). Just not this time.

Pure GV doesn't happen until supreme mined out endgame and we rarely see that, ie Byun vs Hero Daybreak.

That can't even happen since tempests were added to the game anyway.

People have criticized it but it's somewhat similar to a mod for WoL where you had 6 full mineral patches per base, but with 4 full and 4 half instead.
