Sorry Hydra but I kinda agree with the majority, I want to see the defensive lategame playstyle of Snute vs Polt. And Polt vs Hydra would just make non Korean foreigners look too bad.

C'mno, stop saying that the first two games were close. Nerchio was going for the ultra attack from the start and Polt had probably his reaction planned as well. The supplies might have been close and what not, but with hidsight, knowing what both players had in store, both games went straight towards the Polt victory, from start to the end. It would be like saying that a PvZ WoL game was close, but then suddenly, the Zerg hatched BLs and infestors and it swung heavily into his favour.

Honestly people like Snute / MLord / Neeb / Nerchio / ShoWTime have legit potential

Both games were even up to the point where Nerchio started falling apart to drops. Really just came to Nerchio's inferior multitasking.

I only agree with Snute and mmaaaybe Marinelord.
But the others have no chance if a Korean prepares for them in an offline Bo5

I missed G3 of Nerchio vs Polt, how was it?

Polt's signature push, marauders marines hellbats. Nerchio wasn't prepared well enough and got crushed.

tbh it would be kinda epic if Snute beats all 3 Koreans. i think he has a chance against Hydra but i doubt he can beat Polt. would be a sick city finals though.

An annihilation which fully exposed the predictability of Nerchio. Polt performed a 2-base Hellbat bio all-in with Stimpack and Combat Shield, and crushed Nerchio's Roach army completely

new WCS system will make Polt rich and he doesn't need much practice for it.


Why do people talk like this system for the WCS itself is so much different than last year's? Nothing about this is new.


What are you smoking, man? Last year, we had a WCS playground for foreigners, while keeping a huge amount of big tourneys for everyone, including THIS VERY THING WE ARE WATCHING.


I'm talking about WCS itself specifcally, not the circuit tournaments. If you take those into account Zergiica's statement makes even less sense, because Polt can't participate in any of those (without going to open qualifiers on site) just like any other Korean.


Oh c'mon, quals are to Polt like 1+1 to me.


Yea, he still has to travel there on his own innitiatitve and expenses, something he might not be willing to do, especially now he doesn't have a team.
