Coming in, I actually liked the fresh 1st seeds.
Meta-wise, there's little variety in comps and agents, but I love that we have NRG making it by sticking to their own playstyle.

Also, XLG and EDG ruined swiss, except for the 1 or 2 Kangkang clips

bangkok was the best to watch imo but was a mickey mouse

this has more credibility but the swiss stage had nrg vs prx and that was about the only good game

First masters will always be worst than 2nd masters imo. Kickoff always has more problems with visa and teams not being able to field their best roster and also most teams aren't properly settled. And quality of play is generally always worse too since most teams are newly built and need more time to grow stronger.

Bangkok was boring in the sense that there were clear favorites (G2 and EDG) until T1’s fluke run. Santiago on the other hand felt like there were 8 different teams that could have gone on a run and the top 4 all feel like genuine contenders much in the same way Champs 2023’s top 4 were.

EMEA always ending up having rookie teams at these events v the most experienced teams from other regions makes the whole region look like dogshit (well they are worse but not dogshit).
Only team that did decent was the only team with experience in Vitality.
