We have seen 13 different big tournament winners so far this year and only three of them are one time champions (as far as I can remember). Not feeling that "general trend" of yours.

Congrats to the baby pig. Little sucky for Bomber but second isn't bad. It really was his series to win, but Pigbaby is great at responding to his opponents builds. (not so much at executing his own, carriers anyone?) Awesome finals none the less.

kinda was looking forward to Pigbaby dancing his stalkers before the fight in each game, like he did vs Xigua
in his 2 matches vs Xigua, before the battle even started, Pigbaby danced his stalkers in front of Xiguas army
2 times in a row
so BOSS
he should have done that in the final 4 too
or maybe he only dances and taunts foreigners, but with other korean plays manner

Pigbaby won my heart <3
still mad about Protoss though!

Bomber, you still won the WCS NA for me.

I get that you are annoyed by the apparent hypocrisy, but being happy for the champion is a good thing so it means that things are improving and there is nothing at all to be upset about. I'd be much more bothered if we bitched and whined about Pigbaby just like we did to sOs as if we were as bad as we were 8 months ago.

People are cheering for him because of the way that he won. His victory against TaeJa was interesting because of the huge upset that it was. But if he had simply played a standard style in all matches against bomber, no one would have gotten excited.
Instead this: 2 base carriers, base trades, 2 base tempest.
The finals were just that good, and so people are cheering for both contestants.

I hope we get to hear more of him in the booth.
Completely agree. Not only great insights, but also good showmanship and funny jokes. I was really impressed with him.
Also the finals are pretty cool for anyone for who haven't watched them yet ^^

I'm a little sad that I couldn't watch this, sounds like it was an exciting series. Congratz to Pigbaby!

Watch the VODs! They've already been put up on ESL's YouTube.

Anyone know if Pigbaby is staying in the US for Redbull Atlanta in a couple days? Actually, does anyone know anything about Redbull Atlanta in general? Did I miss a player list? Because I havent heard anything really... and its less than 4 days away.

QXC did great, a fantastic addition to the WCS NA team.
I wish Bomber would have won the ZPcraft tournament....

Amazing series. Really sad Bomber didn't win but Pigbaby was damn entertaining and definitely deserved it. Can't wait for next season now.

Again... so close :/

I was absolutely crushed when he beat TaeJa, but that was one heck of a finals. That last game, as clowny as it was, will be remembered for a long time in the "remember that finals where ___?" kind of way.
Congratulations to Pigbaby! The first WCS AM royal roader!

So awesome pigbaby won. I was literally yelling at the end of that last game I was so excited. One of the best finals ever!
