Spoilered, since it's off topic Polt-talk. + Show Spoiler + Revisionist...sure. This is part of my first post on TL, it's me in december 2010 defending OGSTops TvT by using beating Polt as an example as to why Top was good in the matchup. On December 03 2010 03:28 TheBanana wrote: (Jinro got Ro4 in GSL3, I should have gone back to that thread and gloated.)oGsTop beat Polt.Prime in a tvt in GSL1, Naama and Fenix both beat oGsTop in tvt. Jinro is a foreigner so logically speaking how would it be impossible to reach for instance RO8 for a foreigner even in this GSL? GSL3? I've considered Polt a good player from the very start of my GSL-following, not because I'm a super expert, but because it was the general consensus among a lot of people. I hated his ass from january 2011, so I remember very clearly how he was considered from then on. Particularly his TvP and it started before he had results to back it up. Either way, everybody knew and had opinions about Polt before he won the Super Tournament, that's not true for "mediocre" or unknown players. We all saw him coming. And by that my part in this discussion is over, it has sidetracked too much from the tournament at hand. | ||

Also tied the highest number of players by a foreign team to make it to the pools in MLG, out of the open brackets! It must be nice for EG to have such marketable players that are currently pretty average, even the ones at the bottom of the EG ladder currently still draw viewers whereas the lesser Quantic players... (wait, what are their names? I can't even remember) What use are they to their sponsors? I believe lesser known players on major teams like Quantic don't get salary, but they get sent to some events and get paid if they do well or something. It's a good deal for both parties until the player gets to the point where another team will give them a salary. What use is LzGaMeR to EG's sponsors? Every team has "dead weight" in SC2 for the most part | ||

Without the maps used it's much harder to edit the Liquipedia page. | ||
