The grand finale for Pokémon UNITE India Championship wrapped up yesterday (4 June) with Team S8UL taking securing first position between 13 others. FS Esports, while not being able to beat S8UL, also performed really well throughout despite being the underdog and secured the second position.
S8UL’s performance throughout the tournament remained phenomenal with the team only dropping in a single match for which they were sent to the lower bracket, where they converted all the remaining matches in back-to-back wins. FS esports on the other hand surprised the audience with not a single loss before reaching the Finals against S8UL.
