A five-hour challenge across 5 maps saw SEN and Gen.G engage in what was one of the greatest finals the VCT has ever witnessed. After fierce battles on Breeze, Bind, Split, and Ascent, SEN was crowned on Icebox.

The Koreans were merely another casualty of one of the most powerful VCT runs in history during that inaugural international event, which was the last event where Lakia and solo met SEN and TenZ. They had already broken the precedent this time, since they had defeated SEN during the upper rounds thus becoming the first Korean team to qualify for the international tournament grand finals. The last playoff battle was won by Gen.G thanks to a string of 6 straight pistol victories and a strong performance on Split and Breeze. This time, SEN fought tooth and claw to get their retribution, making it a significantly more competitive affair.
Sentinels and Gen.G Esports’ thrilling grand final came to an end, exhibiting fantastic skill and demonstrating that their place in the championship was well-earned. Both teams continuously gave it their all, making it impossible to identify the victor until the very end. Sentinels staged an attacking masterpiece during the second half, with Zellsis spearheading the charge by posting a +10 kill/death differential to win his first international trophy, proving that experience doesn’t matter following a close first half.
