Over the next two days, spectators will witness a tense match between 16 teams. One crore in total prize money will be divided among the competitors in a tournament. The winning team will receive 21 lakh rupees, while the runner-up, third-place team, and fourth-place team will each receive 15, 12, and 8.8 lakh rupees. The Challenger Finale gave $80K to each of the eight squads that were unable to advance to the final round.
In the previous round, Wanted Gaming astounded spectators with their incredible display of talent, beating off several seasoned teams to take second place. In the Challenger Finale, Big Brother and Insane both performed admirably.
The PUBG New State Mobile Challenger phase saw GodLike perform the best. However, they lost their rhythm on Day 2, and they ended up taking sixth place in the previous round.
The event thus far has produced only fair results for Team XO. But by placing well in the upcoming Grand Finale, the organisation hopes to round off its campaign successfully.
The PUBG New State competition has eliminated the 17th to 24th-ranked teams from the Challenger Finale. Famous teams including Gods Reign, Revenant, and Udog India were unable to qualify for the final round. Due to a razor-thin three-point difference, FS Esports and The World of Battle, who placed 17th and 18th respectively in the previous round, were eliminated from the Grand Finale.
