Well Prime wasn't going anywhere, let's all be honest.

It's not surprising that MKP is still there.

Polt was the only GSL winner who was not picked for the all star match. I wonder how much his fan support has to do with this.

Never liked him or Mkp for the playstyles no matter who they beat or how many games they won.

He probably has a gf now.

Pick two


(But if you are a ubermensch like Polt, you get 2.5 picks)
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

That's a pretty odd time for someone to a leave a team, when he's pretty damn high up on the skill level.

SlayerSPolt? wouldn't be surprising considering how they're snapping people up left right and center.

i think he's joining a foreign team

that's my take on the situation. it personally believe that more koreans are getting involved in the foreign scene and are seeing money in foreign teams.

Still though, props for doing well in SC2 while studying. Hopefully, it is not detrimental to his school.


playing aggressive and having top notch control does not make one cheesy. you dont 4-0 a gsl finals with cheese.

Polt had more votes than FruitDealer. Polt declined the all-star match like Nada, Bomber, DRG and Leenock. FD only got to go due to them declining. Also a lot of people thought he was gonna make the final, so voting for him would have been, well, useless.

I guess he just wanted to focus on uni... Seoul University is no joke, and it must have taken quite a bit for him to be able to balance both school and starcraft.
Yea - Chinese casters at NeoTV are pretty quick to point out Polt is not your average joe in intellect. He gets A+'s and is top of Korea in terms of his academic achievements. Big brain inside that creature with a great smile. All the best to Polt!


It must a lot of fucking skill to manage being a top student and starcraft 2 pro. I can barely manage being an average student while being a less than average starcraft player.

All the best to this true nerd baller.

I hate to label him like this, but he is literally Korean Terran #52.

There are so many Terran players like him in Korea, he just doesnt stand out to many people, other than the fact that he won the Super Tournament, and even then, people talk more about MMA then Polt.

Wins a huge tournament, names himself the best player on his team, then leaves the team?

That's kind of weird, but alright.

Agreed, polt and mkp get way to much shit for not playing "standard" and waiting for that cute 200/200 army before attacking mech in TvT matchups.

"wanting to give/new change" sounds like a reason for switching to a new team, not a reason for playing less sc2 for studies, if that were the case then he would have said "i need to spend more time on my studies"

he's deffinitely going somewhere...
