He's retiring from full-time? Why even call it retiring? ...

I think the answer involves very little sleep and partying.


Yeah I can't imagine Polt getting wasted every weekend and slummin' it with some babes. Though I could be wrong...

Just different priorities I guess.


You should ask penguin about Polt. He told a really fun story on SC2 Geopardy. Well i think you already know about it

I take a break from visiting TL, and some guy I've never heard of is retiring. nice

When did you start playing bro?

What do you like to do in your free time?
what race do you play bro?

What were your goals in SC2 and how did you go about achieving them?


It would be interesting if I did an interview with him.

Did any other foreigner work as hard as he did? I'm not sure.

In New Zealand they let nearly anyone into Uni once you turn 20. It's the same way I got in. He's only 19 though (according to wiki) maybe he got an exemption based on earlier test results.

That means that his career was short, and he still rose to the top of the EU scene. Which also means he's a million times better at competitive RTS then you could ever hope to be, ya fucking nitwit.

Or he just plays many hours a day with perfectly manufactured regime so it is effective as much as possible. Back at uni I was able to play almost 5 or 6 hours a day and get to the pub afterwards anyway. Though that is the love of studying programming/networking. You can do all the tasks in the train because laptop and most of the info is out there in e-form

So I can imagine Polt training hard. And if he has his own study program as some athletes have(at least in Czech Republic), aw yeah!

To the OP>
I did not properly know you and I think that I have never seen you play, man. But still, any good player who stops full-time is a loss. And who knows, maybe I saw you on some DH/IEM, I concentrate mostly on Protoss players.

Anyway, have a good time during you studies!

Edit> Also, can someone link some memorable games - either because Petraeus played good(even when losing) or because he played something weird and insane Thanks!
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

Polt is a true legend. He's the only championship caliber player to juggle so many things at once.

I sure don't understand the humor of calling a multiple premier's players a unknown, but well, I guess my sense of humor if probably faulty

Had a sad interaction with this guy on his stream before he joined root/myi. After he became somewhat a progamer I thought something changed for him, but from what progamers say and what I randomly caught at his stream and ladder games - hes still a jerk. Well, I guess nobody will miss this bm guy.

Turkey is closer to France than New Zealand is to Australia (and that's not including Corsica). Not going to happen.
