The match between LOUD and Sentinels also took place in the final of the VCT Americas 2024 Kickoff, attracting over 820 thousand viewers. Presumably, the reason for attracting over 1 million viewers this time was that it was at the Masters, and also because the match went into overtime on the third map.

Masters Madrid is experiencing tremendous excitement due to the return of Sentinels and the rise of Gen.G. The grand final of the upper bracket between these two teams will determine the champion of the first international tournament in 2024.
