I really feel that if squirtle threw up a nexus and just postured at the third to delay it a bit he would be so far infront

I do detest SK for the SH play, but I have to admit, that burrowed play was pretty sexy, likewise I'm amazed Squirtle was able to eventually break that, great game so far.
Everybody does SH play now a days, so its kind of silly to hate on a player just for that, and SK is actually one of the few zergs that uses SH in a more exciting way. Check out his games vs Innovation and PartinG at IEM qualifier.

Can you please try playing a game vs turtle mech or skytoss without swarmhosts without some sarcastic shit like this? Thanks

A great game for 12 minutes, into swarm hosts... sigh

Finally Squirtle has decided to harass properly.

It's sad that anyone would describe blink stalker rush as great, but I'm inclined to agree this season.

Oh my, Squirtle is playing so well right now.

Squirtle is looking a lot better than he did against Pet

You have to admit, that blink micro was really sexy.

Feels like Squirtle's old skills are slowly returning. He'll still lose though, I think. But he is looking better.

What playstyle / build / whatever can be described as great in sc2?

Don't really think the strategy matters tbqh. I mean, Soulkey's 6pool was great ~ and that was a 6pool =D.
