Korean server participation was very low at just ten players, likely due to some players being exhausted after the grueling IEM Katowice qualifier week (players who competed in the final IEM qualifier would have only had a 6~8 hour break until the weekly open). Unsurprisingly, the finals was contested between two players who had locked in their qualification early, ending with Dark prevailing 3-0 over Cure. The European server cup featured the usual contingent of regulars, but also saw ByuN make a surprise appearance as he had traveled to Canada to bootcamp with Shopify Rebellion ahead of ESL Masters Winter/Atlanta. ByuN fought his way to the finals with a 2-1 over MaxPax in the semifinals, but was taken down 3-1 by EU cup keeper Clem in the grand finals. Clem proceeded to take the weekly double, winning the American server cup as well. Once again, his usual finals date with MaxPax was canceled by a top Korean player—this time Dark took out MaxPax in the semis. Clem took the victory all the same, defeating Dark 3-1 in a duel between potential double winners. In the non-ESL Cups, Dark won KSL #38 with a 3-0 over Classic in the finals. Kung Fu Cup was not played on the week—the final cup of the Winter season will be played after ESL Winter/Atlanta.

Still, there is the Serral problem. And not to mention international lan has in general poised problem for clem.
