Steve Cambian has said that he finds piggy fascinating because his grifting and lying is on the level of the UFO grifters he covers, so I can see it go three ways, from most to least likely:
1) He's a Kinofag so him just nuthugging Phail is always possible.
2) A "killing them with kindness" approach like the wrasslin' show that DSP was on where the host just let him talk about how hopelessly addicted he is to gacha.
3) Him doing to Phail what he does to the UFO scammers and just pressing him hard.
