PUBG Mobile team Influence Rage wins PMPL Americas Championship 2022

Influence Rage from Brazil has been crowned the champions of the PUBG Mobile Pro League (PMPL) Americas Championship 2022. Despite starting slowly, the team gained momentum on the second day and maintained it until the final bout. They accumulated 275 points in a span of 24 matches and were the runner-up in the PMPL Brazil when the team consisted of ex-Loops players who are returning after a one-year ban.

Influence Rage's LiLBOY won MVP honors, courtesy of 55 eliminations with more than 9K HP damage and around 20 minutes of average survival.

Defending champions Alpha 7 Esports provided a tough challenge but missed the trophy by only two points. This team accumulated 273 points, including 145 finishes and four chicken dinners.

After a series of second-place finishes in PMPL North America, Nova Esports was placed third in the tournament. The team managed to close the gap on consecutive days following a rough start.

The Americas Season 1 champion, Knights, also tried their best but could only finish in 5th place, while the North America champion Xset had a forgettable tournament as they finished in ninth place.
