With the PUBG Mobile Global Championship Finals culminating yesterday, the 2020 season of PUBG Mobile Esports came to an end too. The Grand Finals of the tournament was won by Chinese team Nova Esports, while their other counterpart from China, 4 Angry Men (4 AM), finished as the first runners-up. Zeus Esports from Mongolia finished as the second runners-up of the tournament.

The tournament, which was initially supposed to take place as a LAN affair at the Coca Coca stadium in Dubai, UAE, was converted into an online setup after three players tested positive for COVID19. The players hence competed in isolation from their respective hotel rooms.

Despite these obstacles, the audience enjoyed the tournament, as players put on what was a spectacular showcase of their skills, with top notch plays and intense fights.
