Just one more step to take. I believe. What a fairytale run this would be for Squirtle. Incredible results for Squirtle. He 2:0ed a lot of these korean terrans -> IMBA. he 2-0d all the terrans he beat. his losses arent listed there and he lost 1-2 to Polt. Amazing run nonetheless

um yes he did.
he wasn't seeded into the groups. maybe you should know what you're talking about.

That is just an incredible list- arguably the best players of every race. I never expected this from Squirtle. Has he finally evolved?

I've literally watched Squirtle do the same exact 2base 3colossi all in three times in a row and crush Terrans all three times.
Not exactly Squirtle's fault that those Terrans didn't exactly stop him.

Maybe the players he played shouldn't have had lost to his builds. Seriously, its three times in a row. Its not a Inca situation where he cheeses his way to the finals.

Feels like some random korean online finals Random? Alive is one of the best Terrans in the world and a recent Code S semi finalist lol. Yea.. but Squirtle's vT play is extremely boring. I respect the guy for getting this far, he's had a great tournament, but his play is just very uninteresting.
Yeah honestly fairly surprised how well he is doing. He is definitely one of the less flashy Toss out there and his control seems subpar compared to the avg Code S regular Toss.
Somehow his 6gate collosi range build has been annihilating these fast 3rd CCs.
I feel meh about Alive but I would expect him to take the win.
edit: Then again Squirtle has gone on an amazing run. Just wierd I would have expected parting rather than squirtle.

Uh yea Squirtle did come through the Open Bracket... seeing as he only participated because his team was invited to IPL for GSTL finals.

That makes sense, considering he went 4-0 in his group and beat both Squirtle and aLive in group stages/championship bracket.

If only he had beaten MKP in the GSTL....

Geez.. Squirtle killing an equivalent of 8 (+1 if you count Blizzard Cup as 1 GSL) MLG and GSL championships in 1 day.

Doesn't make sense for people to ignore the Finals now because the two players playing aren't known yet. I remember tastosis and a lot of people making fun of Nestea pre-season 2 GSL, Also they made fun of lots of other amazing players before they became famous. So yea I agree

hoping for a squirtle victory

they arent even unknown. they're just unknown to people that literally ONLY pay attention to foreign events.
