best post-franchising years
sad how it gets worse over the years llike 2023 was so hype, what happened?
It also depends on what teams you support as well and how they have changed. I personally am a 100T fan and only a 100T fan, and my favourite year of VCT was probably 2024 because of the stage 1 run, but I'd imagine a lot of LOUD fans are in the same boat as you because they have progressively gotten worse and worse over the years
2023, no one had EG going from dogshit to world champions
2024 no one had Sentinels winning let alone qualifying to madrid, no one had EDG winning and at the beginning of the year, we thought no one could beat FNC but TH and KC, the worst team of 2023, beat them (tbf huge roster change but still)
whats ur point then
tbh the level raised so much since 2023, but the thing i really miss form older events is the game sound echoing from the croud mic, idk it gave the game so much hype to me.
In terms of internationals hype, sure, lock in and champs 2023 were by far the best events with fnc miracle comeback and EG underdog run, on the other hand tokyo had such an obvious outcome it came out pretty boring.
