Polt is my fav player.

I've followed him since the day he won super GSL tournament when he was on Prime team.

He should have changed his nick to Poltimus when on Prime.

So sad not to see Polt at Blizzcon. On the other hand, who would have thought that 6 foreigners would have qualified for Blizzcon? If TRUE or Violet withdraw, then uThermal would make it.

If Polt had announced this sooner, would Hydra have been in Group A and perhaps been able to play and then go to Korea for his wedding? If he advanced he might have been able to fly back after the wedding.

Ripperino still 0 terran from WCS Circuit after Polt left... terrans in foreign scene are having hard time for sure. However, ByuN and TY will show terran power in blizzcon. As a random player, I will always cheer for the weakest race.


Y'all really are taught to hate them huh?

So Polt has essentially just retired, right? Quite sudden for one of the best ever.

Damn, that news hit like a truck... It's so sudden... Goodbye and best of luck in everything you do Polt, we will sincerely miss you. <3

On another note, Drogo (Throwgo ?) hype !

Sad to hear about Polt retiring this year, but it's in no way unexpected. The clock is ticking for any korean player over 25.

On that note I also expect HyuN, Bomber, and Stork to go as well, since all three are the same age (28) as Polt.

Good luck Polt! Along with MVP, you were the most inspiring and successful terran that I learned so much from. The final big terran of the old days is gone now .
Forever the best, IMMvp <3

Crazy news. I knew Polt planned to play for a few more years at least, since he signed a multi-year contract with Envy. He was definitely not planning to do this and had no choice. So sudden .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This was expected - I mean, Captain America can't just allow Hydra to infiltrate the military unchecked, can he?

jokes aside, I'm really sad about this. Polt is such a fun guy and I always enjoyed watching him play. T.T
Hope we'll still see him around in some way.

My favorite player since I started watching 5 years ago. A player with the charisma to match his amazing playstyle. I'm sure he'll be as successful in military service and beyond as he was in SC2. GG's
Polt why so God

Well, at least if he manages to get out of his group, he'll be set for a deep run having practiced against all three races.

Fuck this

an abrupt end to one of the most entertaining sc2 players of all-time. To think I once hated Polt for talking smack about Jinro.
