Nix: “TI13 was the worst in history. It was basically just the Xrusteam Cup”

Streamer Alexander Nix Levin said he considers The International 2024 to be the worst tournament in the series. On his personal broadcast, the content creator also noted that he does not expect the situation to improve in 2025.

"[Question: ‘Isn't there a chance that TI will be just as bad?’] Anything is possible. The previous TI was the worst I've ever seen in my entire life. It wasn't even TI. It was basically just the Xrusteam Cup, where people in down jackets were standing in front of YouTube videos in 360p quality, showing Dendi screaming after winning some map at the third TI... The opening ceremony alone was already hyper-cringe. <...> But so far, there are no signs that anything will change. Basically, TI is coming soon, and there has been no information about the compendium or anything else.

The International 2024 took place from September 4 to 15 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Sixteen teams raffled off a prize pool of $2.7 million. The champion was Team Liquid, which defeated Gaimin Gladiators 3-0 in the grand final.

The International 2025 will take place from September 4 to 14 in Hamburg, Germany, with 16 teams participating. The starting prize pool for the event is $1,600,000.

As previously reported by CyberScore, Nix spoke out about the decline of Falcons.
