Hey gang - I meant to put these up a day earlier but there was a tech issue and I had to re-render the whole video. Future GSL Casts will go up the following day that the GSL matches are played. Thanks for watching mates

[@muke392]

Second that!

[@thatwell7944]

Dang Pig when you get rolling you’re the best caster bar none. That game 2 TY/Maru was a banger and you kept up AND gave context. Unreal

[@muke392]

Second that!

[@andrewduan5123]

time to get comfy I guess...
rooting for TY

[@jorgemichaelquino7562]

Reynor was casting these games and he was soo good also. But nothing comes close to you Mr Pig. Kudos ❤

[@ProuvaireJean]

Nobody blends humour, hype and analysis as well as PiG.

[@jamesstone7191]

PIG your casting is super fun, gripping throughout and freaking hilarious, you brought these matches to life in the best way possible. Please keep doing what your doing!

[@nimpichu3711]

TY vs MARU Game 2 is lowkey a candidate for game of the year

[@ghosthamster6521]

ty vs maru game 2 is the reason nobody likes tvt. nothing happens and then maru tries to jump the production with mass viking but ty built thors. that's it. however it still took over 30 minutes. i've seen games like that in gold league.

[@presage23]

@@ghosthamster6521 Seriously? That game 2 was a solid back and forth with a lot of clutch moves.

[@dc8836]

Maru group was kind of boring as expected but some good showings by both SHIN vs Creator and while TY still clearly has some derusting ahead of him, the unconventional BW style made game 2 hit above its expected weight class.
Reynor did a phenomenal job joining State in casting the games. He brings a lot of great insight, especially as he's expanded from purely a Zerg player to (probably eventually) a "Random" player. Hopefully he does well in group B, but even if he gets knocked out, I'd love for him to join State and Tasteless on a cast again. I also really enjoy you casting these games, as you bring your own insights to the mix.
Makes me wish I could play SC2 worth a shit. I feel like there's still so much life left in this game despite Blizzard abandoning it and the "balance council" tending to be pretty Terran-favored.

[@tigera6]

I dont think TY is that committed to SC2 anymore, he implied that this could be his last GSL tournament.

[@rickyj3921]

TY said this would be his "last dance" with SC2. He has been back for a bit (since last year) but never fully committed to participating in online SC2 tourneys but rather just low key ladder matches here and there (Didnt qualify for 2024 GSL Season 1 and IEM). He qualified for both ASL and GSL this season but he's probably gearing towards prepping for ASL from this point forward, especially with him getting knocked in the ro16 in the GSL

[@rocketrockinit]

Nope

[@PhoenixCrown]

You are correct about MMOs PiG. I got hooked on EverQuest in High School, hours, days, significant portion of a year play time. Then World of Warcraft in college, oh boy. I'm 38 now and have no fear of alcohol or weed being a problem. I've known MMO crack.

[@GALAX137X]

2:15:14 good point. I smoked crack at the start of the pandemic and started playing wow. I managed to quit smoking crack but am still playing wow

[@mikegerschwiler7829]

The woo girls fuxked with the wrong Uber driver omg I'm dying

[@calculatorade]

This was a really good cast. That 2nd game... wow.

[@landshark_8024]

I came here for the casting but I stayed for the education on the showering habits of Archons

[@PiGCasts]

😂

[@rogal_dorn5600]

Huge fan of TvT, game 2 ty vs maru is 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
And PiG's commentary make it even better

[@bryanbrasher6011]

Great cast, Pig! Thank you!

[@its_teer]

That last game was a banger!

[@earthbind83]

"I'm stuck step Zerg"? Sorry, I didn't get that one. 2:28:50

[@alexclague56]

Stuck step instead of stutter step.

[@earthbind83]

@@alexclague56 Thanks, and damn right he better be sorry for that.

[@tokudayo]

Shin though...

[@SOPERFECTT]

1:42:56 Hahahah

[@austinnutter3367]

Cure beat Maru really decisively at Dreamhack Atlanta, the Oceanborn game was some of the best TvT I've ever seen, he smoked like 10 BCs with Cyclones and Ravens

[@PiGCasts]

Good memory That was one off the rare times where Cure really pulled everything together and finished him off in style

[@tigera6]

That was a Bo3, and on the previous patch where Cyclone was stronger than now. Maru crush Cure in Bo5+.

[@andrewduan5123]

Shin Vs Creator game 1 was nuts, awesome cast

[@Dogyphil]

Sweating and crying watching these games rn

[@달림이-q2i]

Serral : maru? So ez

[@gagethornewell7497]

Nobody watching brood word or starcraft 1 cuz they are garbage compared to the second game.
