the skill level feels like it fell incredibly hard imo. Just watch the LEV vs G2 match yesterday, it looked so bad

It definitely fell hard. Even as a Sen fan I can safely say that Madrid's skill level was ATTROCIOUS and personally other than the GF I don't think Sen played to the peaks they'd shown from pre Madrid.
The games don't feel like there are masterminds at play. The closest we've seen imo is TH v FNC but that game became a battle of individuals after the first 2 maps.
I think it's the insane amount of anti strat rn, it's hard to build your strategy on top of existing ones and so everyone always starts from the ground up every few tournaments

U realize how dogshit this meta is rn. Almost every map is dominated by raze and gekko. Last year we had haven, fracture, and pearl which were honestly the best maps to watch imo. Now we have sunset, breeze, and icebox. Biggest downgrade in history

I don't think the maps should have anything to do with it though. We've seen saadhak and johnqt call some insane back and forths on all those maps, I feel like maybe just the meta doesn't force teams to really switch it up round to round and on top of that the anti that I mentioned forces teams to abandon older strats cause they become really easy to pinpoint mid game (this is the reason benny is always switching up his trips)
