Polt going abroad around this time...probably to TX (speculation) - seems to be going on an exchange student program, which will be for one semester. He can fund to apply independently for study abroad program ($40K+) but it's quite rare thing at his uni so I assume it's on a reciprocal exchange. Also, he's not on vet major...it's much closer to biological sciences. (usually abbreviated ABC - Animal Biological Sciences, basically biological sciences concentrating on animals, not humans.) Well...if he's going to US on an exchange student - whoa! That means he has GPA at top 5% at LEAST

- from a fellow SNU student

Best of luck to Polt - whether he plays SC2 or goes back to his studies...

I was gonna say Azubu you heard it here first but after reading comments it seems like quite a lot of people are expecting that.
It would be one of Polt's best option imo.

Polt played some good zergs like sniper i believe at IPL i think. He really understood how to counter the broodlords and the infestors and the corruptors.. His tanks were the backbone which flanked and countered the infestors. The marines were in enough range to get at some broodlords, but his vikings and ravens with HSM were really doing a great job reducing the corrupors and broodlord count.

Terrans don't play that way against zergs. It's the only way that terrans can win these days against zergs. Ironically polt struggled against a strong protoss, which was strange. He shouldn't have split his army, and he went for a delayed all in..
He could have out macroed the Protorss, if he just stayed patient. I forgot who he played at IPL though.

This came as a big surprise to me. Would love to see an Azubu sign up, or Team Liquid.

polt and symbol were the only reasons i liked TSL. i wouldnt mind seeing him play for a foreign team but it's not like he hasn't been hitting the foreign tournaments hard anyway.

Polt would be a very nice replacement for Sea indeed.

i would love to see liquid polt. But unfortunatly it dosent fit in viktors premisse to contract players wich are not top players yet but have a lot potential.

complexity would fit as well and they need new players as well!

Don´t think it will happen, TL only recruits fulltime players and not students, because they have a high player standard, also he couldn´t participate in Proleague.
