The last S-tier tournament before the player break. In the final, a clash of titans. Katowice champions versus Paris Major winners. A script that even Shakespeare would envy.

Unfortunately, it turned out to be quite one-sided. Team Spirit dominated NAVI and lifted the trophy after a 3-1 series.

The main spotlight goes to you know who. Finishing the tournament with an impressive 1.33 rating across 12 maps, donk stands head and shoulders above the competition. The battle for the baby goat status is fierce, as the 17-year-old secures his fourth MVP medal. Remarkable.

That’s the thing with Team Spirit. It is genuinely scary how young they are. Chopper, at just 26, already feels like a seasoned elder among teammates who weren’t even born when TaZ won his first S-tier event. The future couldn’t be brighter.

NAVI haters can now break out the champagne. The team has officially entered fluke territory. Even with occasional highlights, their shaky post-Major form is seriously damaging their reputation. jL’s phenomenal performance in Paris hasn’t carried over to recent events, despite a respectable showing at this tournament. Maybe this iteration of NAVI has really hit their ceiling.

All things considered, 2024 is shaping up to be Spirit’s year, and we’re all in for the journey.
