Obviously we’re all happy they finally made it, that goes without saying. But somehow when they lifted the trophy, I wasn’t as happy as I would’ve imagined, probably because this edition of Worlds felt lackluster. Or maybe just the finals, 3 stomps in a row really felt bittersweet.
What’s annoying is that they had so many epic final series where they fell short, against RNG at MSI or DRX at Worlds, but the one they end up winning feels like a showmatch against masters.
I feel like even the players didn’t react as strongly as DRX last year or EDG before that, I assume for the same reason.
What do you think?
Not just the fans, I think even the players seem a bit melancholic. I’m probably projecting but it feels underwhelming to finally get something that could have been yours a year ago, rather than reach a new peak. Its a complex situation where ZOFGK in another universe could have been back to back champions in several tournaments.
And they might also still be thinking over their contracts which definitely makes the victory quite bittersweet to fans…
