I could not share the replays until now because of the InCa "incident" (wave of bans) therefore I am only posting it now. I wondered at first if I would post them or not, since I played terribly bad and the games aren't really interesting, but it's always cool to grab replays of favorites players so I post them.

Thanks for providing those replays! I'll put them in the OP now

- tight builds - calm head in pressure situations - decisive engagements when he senses any weakness - small intelligent details that gradually snowball into an advantage - excellent micro - steadily improving macro

Polt has incredibly refined mechanics. Not a single wasted move. There are players with the same mechanics and are faster (MMA, MVP, jjakji) but Polt is still able to maintain all that he needs when it comes down to micro/decision making/macro. If he WAS faster though he could be in contention of being a top 3 terran.

Polt is a man who can never die.
Seriously sick games vs TOP just now too.

I think we figured out one of the constants of the universe:
If Polt loses his entire base he wins the game.

Good one ;-)
The reason i like Polts stream is, he has the same steady and accurate mouse movements as Idra. Just not as fast but still very enjoyable ( Not saying he is better/worse than Idra ).
|
Idra really needs a lesson in manners. Not only is Polt a better player than him, but also a better person than him.

Polt being doofy on NA server.
Beat Protech with hellion-banshee-marauder, lost to Protech with a fast nuke rush. Now just proxy Thor rushed HongUn.
|
Heh, Polt just got matched up with Protech back to back games on the NA ladder. Both games on Xel'naga Caverns... Polt was on autopilot and won the first game with almost no resistance, Protech complained and quit with no GG.
Second game Polt ghost rushed and started dropping nukes all over the place... Protech barely survived it, then went heavy roach/ling pressure and Polt's just-for-fun build was too fragile to hold up and he gg'ed. Protech immediately bragged to his friend list about taking out Polt, lol.
I wonder why Protech doesn't have XNC vetoed as zerg.
