The international squad showed stiff resolve on their run to the final, battling through overtime maps against NRG and DENDELE en route to a BO5 bout with DENDELE , who made the final via the lower bracket.
Wildcard benefitted from a 1-0 advantage in the grand final as they came from the upper bracket, and that advantage proved vital as they contested a hard-fought game with DENDELE .
The first three maps were one-sided for either team, DENDELE taking Mirage and Inferno whilst Wildcard bagged Nuke, sending the series to a decider on Anubis.
On Anubis strong T-side starts gave way to CT comebacks for both teams, Nemanja "nEMANHA" Đukić and João "koala" Pfeffer each standing head and shoulders above their teammates in terms of impact as the map went to OT.
There Wildcard had the last laugh, posting a flawless three-round CT half to secure the title. NRG meanwhile exited the tournament in fourth place and saw their Major hopes take a dent, going from comfortable odds to a 61% chance.
Wildcard 's next confirmed event is FiRe Last Chance , an event that will prove impactful in the race for Singapore qualification for both Europe and the Americas regions.
