The PMPL Americas Championship Season 2 has concluded, with Brazilian powerhouse Alpha7 Esports crowned the ultimate champion of the American region. All other teams had no answer to their dominance.
Alpha 7 Esports were also the only team to cross the 300-point mark, thanks to 167 kill points. Another Brazilian team, Rise Esports, secured second place with 254 points, while North America champion Xset made an excellent comeback in the final two days to secure the third rank. Defending champion Knights had to settle for fourth place, while PMPL LATAM champion Aton Esports came in sixth. Their last-day performance earned them a PMGC ticket.
This was a disappointing tournament for Nova Esports NA, who finished in tenth place and missed the PMGC spot by a few points. LATAM big shot Furious Gaming also didn't perform as per expectations to finish 13th.
While INTZ was a few points shy of qualifying, Team Queso finished fifth with an average performance. Overall, it was an outstanding event, as each team gave it their all, and the best sides prevailed.
