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 or how many games they won.

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.


The fact that he won Super tournament is kinda important, seeing as how there is only one other Terran with better results than him. Plus he has done better than MMA at every single GSL afaik
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

What? MMA is more talked about because he's been to America, on a more popular team, and has more foreign exposure.

Just because MMA is talked about more doesn't mean MMA is better. Polt has the best TvP in the world with Bomber, great micro control, and some of the sickest bio play in the world. If he got on a team with a terran who played a more macro style, he could become a MVP type like player. His macro isn't terrible, it's quite good, but isn't up to snuff with terrans such as Bomber, TOP or MVP.

Send Polt to a MLG, and if he wins, his foreign fanbase will double.

I think hes going to want to hit his last 2 terms hard to get his last and probably hardest class's done before seeing what he wants to do next.

And maybe wants to spend that money hes won on stuff. I still wonder what flash could possibly do with all his moneies.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

Polt had a girlfriend back when he won the Super Tournament. I remember in an interview he wished her good luck on exams.

He also didn't live in the team house and has his own place, so the change isn't going to be that difficult if he switches teams. We should find out more at the GSL selections tonight.

NO! I am so sad! I love Polt and Prime together! T_T

Well I wish the best for him and Prime.

I'm sure we'll hear from him again once he's done with school. Unless he gets a sick job and doesn't need us anymore TT

Well, the GSL Group Selections are tonight, so I guess if you needed a reason to watch, there you go.

Edit: Or is it tomorrow?

So, we can finally go back to calling him Polt now. That's a positive, at least.

now we just have to see where he ends up after school. I don't think that if he was happy with prime he'd leave the team, just ask for a leave of absence due to schoolwork.

That whole Optimus thing was silly... why can't people stick to a single ID ?
Whatever, he'll be back as xx.Polt, no doubts.
