where are the storylines? the tearjerkers?
shanghai is not fun because there are no storylines to be invested in

madrid- sentinels resurgence and redemption arc. seeing the blood sweat and tears of their offseason work and how players had their own story. zellsis was going to retire and stream but he got a second chance, tenz’s second trophy after iceland and johnqts international debut

2023 champs and tokyo - rise of eg the the underdogs. once the worst team of NA, they rose to the top and won. beyond the doubt and laughs and getting dogged on; they persevered and came demon1 coming in hot. don’t forget the knife of destiny that started it all.

lock in - not a masters but was a fun showcase tournament for franchise. super entertaining.

2022 champs- optic vs loud rivalry. saadhak vs fns was wonderful to witness. prime loud and prime optic were gigabagers with their plays

and etc etc

shanghai is just weak compared to past tournaments

also missed FNATIC's redemption in 2023 (LOCK//IN comeback in the GF and dominance in EU and Tokyo).

Yea I mostly agree with this. The problem is that Shanghai is creating these storylines not continuing them like the dominance of geng is one I can think of. Hopefully champs will combine a lot of the Sen Nrg and new storylines from Shanghai.

Either TH win with a sub, GENG become the first pacific team to win, or choke 2 gfs in a row, G2 win after everyone had them as one of the worst teams of the tournament seems good to me

All of the top 3 teams rn have a good storyline
GenG: Finally going to win APAC a trophy or continue choking? Also the previous runner up to the last tournament
G2: The ascension team of NA, they seek to prove that they belong in tier 1. They also choked the last time they were in an international in 2022 and are redeeming themselves for that
TH: Heretics has the same storyline of PRX at Tokyo (classic rito recycling scripts). Making a very deep run with a sub after their star duelist unfortunately missed the tournament, and moving their god flex player to duelist proving everyone wrong

GenG going on a fucking run in front of a Chinese crowd that is biased against them and for APAC to get their first trophy after GenG choked in their previous finals is a story in my book

Mfer this ain't a show, the actual games have been very close and entertaining. Alot of OTs and close end to series, this tournament has been the best since last champions by far

agreed bruh, the FPX games, 100T vs PRX, other games, and even map 1 of TH vs 100T last night had me on the edge of my seat. I can't pinpoint it why but the games look more fluid and polished than madrid. Less sloppy. Does it have the same hype as madrid tho probably not cus people's "favorite teams" arent on here and its in shanghai causing an time difference to impact the hype around it as well. I'm sure the live crowd (if ur not geng) is a banger cus im 100% sure the crowd mic is low asf
