BOOM’s Tournament Run

BOOM Esports entered the APAC LCQ as the third seed out of ten teams, earning a bye to the Upper Quarterfinals. They first fought against Griffin Esports (Seed #7), defeating them 2-1 with a dominant 13-1 Map 3 Fracture. BOOM would then face off against ONIC G (Seed #2), shutting them out 2-0 with a 19-17 Fracture that lasted for twelve rounds of overtime. BOOM’s Upper Final matchup was against BLEED (Seed #1), winning narrowly through a close 2-1 series. Winning the Upper Final granted BOOM the first Grand Finals spot with the advantage of two map bans. In the Lower Final, ONIC G would defeat BLEED in a Haven Map 3 overtime 14-12, taking the match 2-1. However, BOOM’s Upper Bracket advantage would prove just enough tip the scales, defeating ONIC G again in a 3-1 series.
