They convincingly beat LGD Gaming 2-0 and went on to dispatch of Nigma Galaxy in the quarterfinal and Vici Gaming in the semifinal by the same 2-0 scoreline.
BB Team started the final in the same strong form they showed during the playoffs, taking the first game. But the lead didn’t last long as PARIVISION took the next three games to lift the trophy.
