I think it's less that he's behind on the metagame -- seriously, he has to live under a rock to be behind on the mech metagame -- and more that he doesn't like to use mech for whatever reason. The same holds true for a ton of other players as well (e.g. MKP, Bomber, MMA, etc.).

I just think he prefers his bioball style more than mech. He CAN go mech. In fact he did on the deciding game in his game with MMA in this season's GSL in the Ro16. Though for some stubborn reason MMA decided to go bio, so we don't know how good Polt's mech vs mech is.

Because people see them as a greedy business corporation.

They at least play biomech, and MKP can play mech VERY well. I've seen him crush people with it. However, Polt doesn't take that quick third base when playing MMM against mech and I don't understand why. Marauders are really strong against that style and the army is easy to replace as opposed to mech, and also abusing mobility.

I guess that should light up some speculation as to where Polt could be heading.

This just in: http://whitecosmos.tumblr.com/post/10227956184/thisisgame-interviews-polt-after-leaving-prime

It seems the leave has nothing to do with school, I call his bluff I really think he has an offer. Maybe when he say's he doesn't agree with where the team is headed it's because of the whole primezzang fashion thing? idk

EDIT: sry didnt see post above me
MKP - Best player of all time

Polt: It'd be difficult for me to reveal the reason in detail, but there were personal issues. I think it'd be good to understand it as there being little differences between the way our coach thinks and the direction the team is seeking out and my own thoughts.


What does this mean? Way to vague.

It means the coach wants a Fashion team instead of a Sc2 team

Nah just joking would like to know tho ^^

I think it means that his vision and the coach's vision of the team are not aligned. Thus, he thought it best to leave the team.

I know that, but he doesn't elaborate on what the coach and his vision is and why they are at odds with each other.

It would be amazing to see a former GSL champion to join a foreign team.
