I don't know if I'd say he ever was dominant, but he always seemed like a player who had the potential to be one of the greats, which is why it's especially sad he never quite made it that far.

Noo :'( I was fairly new to the scene when I started watching Squirtle. I'm going to miss him MKP and ForGG resurgence has made me kinda happy though, hope to see some awesome DRG and Creator games in the future.

Really hope the old guard will stand strong even through so many retirements this year.

Squirtle no.... GSL 2012 season 2, where you were meant to be champion.... (Well it's okay Mvp won)
Truly a championship caliber player at his peak!

I think we can safely say that Mvp retired Squirtle by winning the finals, though it took 2.5 years >.>

He never really became himself again, did he?

I'll really miss him. I hope he comes back to StarTale for Proleague 2016 with LotV!

Sad to hear, but not unexpected, at least not for me. He didn't have decent results in ages.
