I dunno, Thorzain was a really good ghost user too and probably played a part. Not as good as MVP obviously but pretty darn good.

Go home, study Stephano's play, and go to IPL4 ready to take him down. well, polt realized that if you manage to sneak a big drop into the main of stephano, you can do a ton of damage then, stephano discovered he didn't have to morph all his broodlords and keep them as mobile anti air, and it was terribly effective i wonder how long it can evolve until one of them has a nervous breakdown (could get ugly, especially considering stephano now has firearms training) | ||

It's not like the Infestor is the pillar of both Ultra and BL tech. Silly me. | ||

He has the third longest Code S streak in history behind Nada/Nestea. He's made a bunch of Ro16's, a semifinal, and won GSL. There are, like, what, maybe four or five players who can say they've had more success in the GSL than Polt. | ||

Once again I will say this, POLT NEVER USES GHOST EVEN BEFORE SNIPE NERF. He has already said it doesn't affect him since he doesn't use ghost. And using polt as an example actually proves that terran's don't HAVE TO use snipe to win. noobs and we're saying that maybe he should reconsider? All he has to do is land two really good emps and the fungals are nullified. That's most of the damage being done to the marines gone, plus it allows him to micro. Maybe he could win without ghosts before, but against infestor broodlord its kind of crucial. Infestors are what keep the marines from a-moving under the broods... edit: Plus like the other guy said. Infestors are pivotal for both brood lords and ultras. | ||

Mvp did it on GSL and main stages. Mvp is the sole reason why ghost became huge after players saw how easy late game zerg units die to snipe | ||

Always getting good leads and then throwing them away because he wants to play a straight-up macro game. No difference in builds whatsoever, no proxy rushes, no mind games...just painful to watch. This shit will not win you tournaments. Lol none of the players cheeses in a final, resulting in some of the most exciting games in the history of e-sport and you get mad. It's fun. | ||

Looks like Stephano spotted the weakness to this build. | ||

I know people hate on Stephano fans, but I really think he's overtaken Nestea and is second only to DRG. The fact is Stephano consistently goes to tournaments without a lot of Koreans, hate to say it but he keeps playing Polt so much, and Polt got knocked out of Code A, although you could say hes code S quality hes probably not even top 20 | ||
