geng not getting any cheers vs fpx being the obvious crowd favorite just adds to the drama/intrigue of the match for me. maybe objectively/from a player pov it's better if the crowd was unbiased, but i think a biased crowd just adds to the excitement of a match. every round fpx win feels even more crushing for geng, and every round geng win is them literally silencing their haters and proving how good they are. the entire first half felt like a victory lap from fpx, proving all the doubters wrong and crushing a supposed top team in front of the home crowd, and almost the entire second half is just geng putting a stop to that, silencing fpx's home crowd and proving that they really are one of the best teams in the world. it's the first match in my admittedly short time watching competitive valorant i've watched where i've been this invested in the storyline.
crowd hot take (potentially)
DeluluGavin [#4]when chinese teams play, idm the bias but LEV v GENG was a bit disappointing
this is the first match i've watched of this tournament so maybe i'd have a different take if i watched gengs last match tbf

It's just geng bro cause of that political reason so don't worry too much. At least t1 are getting cheered. Also they were clapping for the geng players after their win. So don't worry too much about crowd against geng.

I didn’t find it disappointing
They were loud for LEV but Gen G shut them up they got beef or whatever. And when showing cams and stuff with how emotional people were getting it was great

chinese production really knows how to make storylines thats something to appreciate. the hype for this was kinda dead and at least they making it more hype

yea i just thought bringing in political issue which was done by League of Legends team (or bringing in into esports in general) a bit meh but its these stuff that adds the spice between match ups. We got some spicy beef in apac now
