Nix praised the organizers of The International 2025 for the tournament format

Alexander “Nix” Levin called The International 2025 the most interesting tournament in the series after TI10 due to its successful format.

The streamer shared this opinion on Twitch.

"I am delighted with the TI14 format. The Swiss system has proven itself. Every match is interesting to watch. This is the most interesting Int since TI10."

According to Alexander “Nix” Levin, the absence of a group stage with two-map matches, where team encounters can end in a draw, makes the tournament more interesting, as the outcome of each match becomes more important. The content creator believes that Bo2 matches are boring to watch, which is why it is better to start watching such tournaments right from the playoffs.

"Because all the matches are so decisive, it's very interesting to watch. Because these bo2... Every tournament operator after TI14 should do Swiss. If there is a Bo2 tournament, then it's Resident Sleeper, start watching it from the playoffs.

Bo2 is impossible to watch. Pointless matches where half of the teams don't even try. What's the point of watching if people lose and it doesn't affect anything?

But here it's really cool. You win 4 matches — you don't need to play any further. You've already come in 1st place, and the division begins."

Let's recall that earlier Alexander “Nix” Levin named the weakest player on Team Spirit, who is to blame for their elimination from The International 2025.
