As a relatively new active clan on the SEA server, we have decided to solidify our presence by giving something back to the community in the form of a tournament with a modest prize pool of $80!
A clan for friends founded in Auckland in New Zealand due to our love for KFC. Initially we had three players and since then we have grown to clan roster size of around fifteen. We remained beneath the radar until recently, when we decided to participate in the SEACL where we took out second place behind TA. Since then, many of our players decided to take a break from SC2 due to college starting and for many of us, university. But we could not resist the charm of SC2, and many of us came crawling back and started laddering Now two of our members are GM (Nightmare and KFCBukket) and two more are performing well at high masters on the SEA ladder. We hope this tournament can promote our presence in the SEA community and hope all of you enjoy this

Congratulations to tgun and Satu who placed 1st and 2nd respectively. FlashBlysk finished in third place with a walkover win over yang in the bronze match.
The winner of the random player $5 prize was drawn on stream and it was Amare. Congrats
Thank you to all the participants who played and for the people who missed out, don't worry, KFC Bucket Cup will most likely be a monthly cup from now on with similar prize pools
This was my first time at organising a tournament, hopefully it wasn't managed too badly. Any advice, please let me know!
And a big thank you to ToRBaldie who casted the semi-finals and the finals and made sick background overlays for the streamed games.
