Tbh Creator isnt very interesting protoss. He does everything solid, tries to minimize mistakes, has his timings but doesnt exactly have his style like Parting, Hero or Rain.
isn't that stylistic? rain plays very similarly to creator, most of his PvZ is creator's
yes, they're both brutally efficient players
the thing is Creator shows keeps making stupid and costly errors that he never makes online when he's in the booth
how do you know that? he hasn't participated in a notable online tourny in 4 months and I've never seen him stream.

What exactly is Rain's style? It's exactly the same as Creators lol. Also, wonwonwon is not a style.
I want to explain, what's so impressive with that strategy Creator showed twice today (in different ways). To get, why this is so genious play you just should look what he has avaiable when he makes this push that killed both Curious and DRG: - 3/1 upgrades - Star Gate - Robo Support Bay with ext. thermal lance researched - twillight with charge researched - templar archives - 4 bases
The beauty of his play his, that this is NOT an All-In that HAS to kill the zerg right at the moment. He is perfectly set up for lategame PvZ if the Zerg is too well prepared. He can get Storm and Mothership tech out directly within a couple of minutes while sitting on a 4base economy. He can pull back if he sees that his push is not gonna work out, because he is set up to go right into super lategame if he needs to. And that he can set this all up, while preparing a deadly timing attack and being safe to Zerg attacks shows insanely knowledge of the game!

What is Rains style? PartinG is known for storms, HerO for warp prisms.
An unholy synthesis of many of the best PvX players in each of his matchups. Very similar 3 base timings to Creator in PvZ, but can do HerO-style warp prism play. Great use of templars and storm drops in PvT, with really solid defence, and just a great understanding of mid/lategame PvP.
