The 77th edition of WLSC. Both winner Utopia and runner-up Blackmere declined to host, so Sakuralia took up the challenge. The theme, titled after Conchita Wurst's winning Eurovision song in 2014, symbolized the dawn of a new year.
Genext debuted this edition, while Belvist returned after some time away and New Harlem withdrew permanently.
Utopia emerged as the winner for the fourth consecutive edition after the leader in the voting, Meilutya, failed to vote in time.
