WSB Gaming won the LG UltraGear Skyesports Champions Series (SCS) 2024 BGMI tournament. The team amassed 261 points, narrowly edging out iQOOSoul to take the coveted title of champions.
The month-long tournament which was executed across several qualifier stages and a semifinals saw the top 16 teams battling it out in the grand finals from 5 to 10 March for the title. The tournament, which was live streamed on YouTube, amassed a peak concurrent viewership of more than one lakh.
LG UltraGear was the title partner of the 2024 series. The tournament was powered by AMD with EliteHubs and Zebronics joining as the e-commerce and gaming peripherals partners, respectively.
WSB Gaming’s Zeref said, “It’s exhilarating to take first place in the Skyesports Champions Series. I feel really great to have won by defeating the teams who have taught us.”
The SCS was a crucial tournament for teams as they weren’t just fighting for the title, but also for points in the Skyesports Leaderboard. The official Skyesports Leaderboard System amalgamates the performance of teams in official Skyesports IPs and serves as the criterion for invites into future tournaments.
Commenting on the conclusion, Skyesports founder and CEO Shiva Nandy said, “With the SCS, we are thrilled to have given an opportunity to all players to go pro through our open qualifiers. Our added stake with the Skyesports Leaderboard, engaging with fans on social media, close matches, and also strong numbers from our regional Tamil language stream all contributed to driving viewership for the tournament.”
