And including the weekly, other Terrans arent doing very well unless bracket luck push all the Terran in one side. The funny thing is Clem himself helping to eliminate other Terrans with Protoss. Then again, this could just be due to lack of participation/practice. HM and Spirit not playing, neither is Gumiho for most weekly, Oliveira retire, so Terran is left with just Cure/Byun/Bunny outside of Clem.
Nah, I wouldn't blame the maps at all for the TLMC result. They played some very orthodox-ass StarCraft and Clem just played worse that day. Particularly, he just fell apart against sub 10-minute pushes because of various early-game stuff not going his way.

Why did Clem take the easy path of playing PvT vs ByuN instead of going for TvT? :/ Serral still dominant, I wonder if he can beat Clem though
|
Enjoying Shin vs Zoun a lot...some good, old-fashioned PvZ wackiness.
|
|
Clem vs Maxpax and Shin vs Zoun were great matches, excited for today's matches but idk if I'll stay awake for all of it
|
gotta say great tournament. great players, great games, great vibes and I also like how the grand final ended. GG Serral

+ Show Spoiler +What a great ride and insanely packed tournament... I loved all quarterfinals (especially Max versus Clem) and the other nail biter in the semis between Clem and herO. The finals were probably what we all wished for when Maru and Serral faced each other in the past years but it always ended in a one sided slaughter. Clem and Serral have been going back and forth for such a long time now and this was an insanely satisfying final, being metaphoric to this back and forth.
Overall a really nice tournament with niche builds and nice all ins. Players needed to display resilience, creativity as well as flexibility as there was no one-build-to-win-it-all.
Thanks PiG for making this possible, congratulations to Serral and hopefully we see an equally stacked field at Pig Sty 6.0!

What an epic series between Serral and Clem. Going to the full length in a BO9 in a TvZ at this level must be grueling.
GG to Serral. Sweet to see again that he'll always eventually find a way to win, no matter the meta or opponent. Clem's reaction on camera to losing his reaper to the slow lings in game 9 foreshadowed the outcome, haha.
Big thanks to PiG. This was an amazing tournament.

Big thanks to Pig for delivering another amazing tournament
Also serral continue to be the King of the mountain

Thank you PiG, awesome event! Loved the Bo7+s in the playoffs.
|
Fantastic tourney. GG all. <3
|
In these waning days of SC2, it's a gift to have these fleeting remainders of such high-level matches and play. Who knows how much we have left, so I definitely savor every bit of these. Thanks to Pig for organizing such a wonderful event!
|
Such a great event! Defitely deserves more recognition than it got. Close series, stacked line-up. Maybe not the best time zone. But if you were able to watch, you sure had a blast! Loved that last 3 players standing were representing different factions.
|
how often did we have BO9 in grand finals go full 9 games before? I wish all finals be like that.
|
Pig is best. Great finals, great tournament!
|
The playoffs were great to watch! Some super close games, i loved it.

Yeah you could see Clem getting tired but he also really wanted to win. What a champ! Congratz to the GOAT Serral for getting another notch in the belt.
Great tournament, great orga, great players! Can't wait for PiG Fest 6

I would like to ask if pig can open up the rep of this festival for players to learn from.
