Finally we get his unique original name back. He wasn't living up the name of Optimus Prime to be frank.

Well, at least this guy will stop defaming the name of the glorious leader of the autobots.

Polt!

Whoa.. well that's OK, he can go join SlayerS or something.

Or focus on study then come back and join SlayerS

Why do people think Polt is going to SlayerS? That's like the least likely outcome. With a deep T lineup already SlayerS has very little to gain by picking up another T, even a skilled T like Polt.

I hope Polt is going teamless, deciding that Prime responsibilities (modeling for zzang? in-house practice requirements) cut into school time too much and he continues to play in GSL while finishing school.

Heck, might even be the case if the Prime coach thinks he may return. University Terran Hwaiting!

No more optimusprime jokes from tastosis in the october season
Oh well if I had 100 million won I'd probably quit the game, finish school and than come back, he still does both, it just seems he doesn't have the time to be part of a team and finish school.

This is so true!! Honestly whatever team picks him up better have some deep pockets because this guy is one of the best, Liquid could be cool but i dont see them having enough cash for polt if they couldnt keep huk. Maybe EG if their balance sheet can afford it but i honeslty believe FXO or Dignitas or MOUZ will pick him up if they are foreign since they are the ones with pockets deep enough to afford a player like polt maybe even Col.MvP
fuck the haters

To the people saying Polt should go to Slayers, that would be really weird IMO. Polt has been a thorn in the Slayers side for a while. He beat MMA in the finals of ST, and in the most recent Code S. He's eliminated Alicia, and Boxer from GSL runs. And he's eliminated Min twice and Puzzle once from the IPL qualifiers.

I would much rather see some Slayers start taking him down, than for him to join the team. And Slayers has enough terrans as it is.
Slayers Forever! Rip. :( - Not the eSports organizer, that's CableStarcraft.

This is quite unfortunate for the Prime team, losing one of the most successful players. Hopefully Polt continues to be competitive and practice while he is independent. Would not mind seeing him on a foreign team in the future if the right opportunity were to arise for him. Well hope for the best for both Prime and Polt and see how this progresses in the future.

Is he still going to be participating in the GSL October, or is he forfeiting?
Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.

polt to MVP is my pick. EG have bought big already this year with HuK and puma and have idra on the pay role to not sure how much money they have but thats 3 top players already. I dnt think slayers as they have a lot of terrans already Im have MVP and startale has Bomber. oGs could be another option but less likly with top and supernova and im sure he got asked by another team first. its interesting and will look forward to seeing where he goes

With this, Prime loses any chance of reaching a Code S finals again. Not good at all. (Also, I still hate Polt for beating MMA)
