Is there less hype this year compared to last year

title
I feel like the site is deader and riot hasn't done anything to raise hype
its also an 8 team tournament so many peoples favorite teams didnt get to qual, leaving people not hyping to other teams up.
Idk tho its just me

Yes

Swiss format is just not hype for me at all

Also not enough teams

Shanghai will be hype

We just have to get to the matches. site is always dead when there are no games on

The kick off event was a hype ngl. But yes masters madrid will not feel exactly like masters. It should have been top 3 from each region.

Game is dying, but the esport is as good as always in my opinion. This might the best masters event in terms of viewership because you got the orgs with the most clout in the world of esports.

all the kickoff hype died down so yeah site is kind of dead because we are just waiting for madrid

I feel like there's less storylines at the start of the year; that's how I felt about lock-in

all the forum really has going for it rn is SEN fans and NRG fans acting like english football fans in every thread

There will be an influx of new Spanish and French users.

I can’t wait! 😭

it was the first year of franchising so yeah. it will get more hype around split 1

8 team international is just so stupid ngl, and the fact that we had to wait 6 months for 2 weeks of valorant into another break is crazy crazy.

we have so many clouted orgs going to madrid
the vieweship is going to break records
how is there not enough hype?
