Polt is part of a bigger team and is much better and this is much more shocking.
What does it matter how I loose it?

1. Major leaves every team anyways
2. Polt is a top player on a top team
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

What? His TvP with Bomber is head and shoulders above everyone else.

Players come and go, Polt is just waiting for the right offer, and also finishing his education is very important.
The actions we do today, will echo in eternity.

Best part about this news is that he has finally given up on the stupid "Optimus" thing. Anyway curious about what he is doing next!

1. Prime is a bigger team
2. Polt won a GSL and just got to the semifinals of the last GSL
3. Major leaves a team every six months

Even though he stated that he'll remain teamless for a while, no doubt many would be eying a player of such caliber. I wonder what kind of offers that he'll get.

LOL.

Yeah but regardless, Polt is a TvPROTOSS monster, not nearly so much TvT or TvZ
