Title. Why are so many people so disproportionately angry about this, that the two finalists from last time are facing an elimination match this early? It just shows the scene is healthy and competitive. I think it's amazing to not have the same people playing for every title, you really have to work your way through the brackets and deserve the trophy. Makes everything so much more enjoyable to watch!

I understand frustration over LOUD having to play through the groups despite being dominant at home, because that seeding was out of their hands and I agree it's a stupid system. But other than that, you really just have to earn your spot and keep performing, can't expect one good tournament to grant you consistent top placements. There's a lot of competition internationally, the game is constantly evolving, and you have to stay on top of that if you truly want to keep calling yourself the best. It's literally just healthy for the sport.

It is not being angry. It is just disappointing. You at least expect some sort of consistency from the finalists of the last event

staying consistent is difficult, that's what makes it so entertaining to watch. it's not even that loud or optic played like shit (sure, yay had an off day but the maps were close), the other teams are just also very very good at the game

No team in this game has shown consistency besides maybe Optic/NV and Gambit/M3C in terms of finals or deep runs Idk why people expect that when there are huge meta shifts and months between international events.

Optic lost their first match last time as well to Xerxia who also went out in groups so it's not the end of the world for them.
