It was maybe my favorite final that entire year, especially seeing PRX pull out Astra-Breach-Yoru-Neon on Breeze, which at the time had almost never been seen on the pro stage since the meta was (and still probably is) Viper-Sova-Jett-Cypher
My (EU/FNC biased) list is:
OPTC vs LOUD was boring tbh, it was kinda obvious that LOUD was gonna take coz OPTC just really seemed like they lost themselves mid-series
I think you're right tbh. I'm just a yay glazer which is why it's up there for me ngl
It wasn't obvious at all that LOUD was going to win. On map 1, if it weren't for 1 very unlikely move by Sacy, LOUD would have lost. On map 3, if it weren't for Aspas performing a miracle, and taking the game to Overtime, LOUD would have lost. Map 2 and 4 were Stomps for their respective sides.
In short, it was a very balanced ending.
something you clearly know a lot about, as the only job you could find was in the sewers
Edg th is not top 5. I also think fpx vs prx is underrated, the final itself wasn't maybe that crazy but from the strategic point of view it was the best game of val I've watched. 2 completely different styles clashing and fpx with some cleanest antistrats I've seen in a game of val + the best underdog story we've had
Also FPX had to play with a sub initially in the tournament, and made a full lower bracket run
that being said I still think EDG vs TH is top 5
1- mickey mouse tournament
2- EDG got lucky to get flukeretics
4- NA would never let apac get their first trophy
FNC vs Loud ( Lockin Finals )
TH vs EDG (Champs 2024)
GMB vs Acend (Champs 2021 )
TL Brazil vs Shopify rebellion ( GC 2023 finals )
Sen vs GenG ( Madrid Finals )
EG vs LOUD 2023 Champions has to be Top5. Shit was a crazy series. Demon1 and Aspas going at it.
