Southeast Asia’s Boom Esports Dota 2 squad have bagged at least P5 million in cash and prizes as they take the win at the Gamers Galaxy: Invitational Series Dubai 2022 Esports competition. Boom beat out fierce competition from Europe, Tundra Esports, 3-2 in the Grand Finals to take the victorious title.
The tournament was a tumultuous journey of rises and falls for Southeast Asian victors @boomesportsid as they and Tundra swapped leads during the best-of-5 series. Entering Game 4, Boom was down 2-1 on the scoreboard, but they quickly rebounded thanks to Erin Jasper “Yopaj” Ferrer, the Filipino Dota 2 veteran, and his 11-1-16 performance using his Templar Assassin. In the process, the team locked in a 19.8k net worth.
All the while, Souliya “JaCkky” Khoomphetsavong ran competitors down on his Bristleback, taking major damage for the benefit of the entire team.
In the next game, Yopaj yet again enlisted his key hero, Templar Assassin, scoring 14 of Boom’s 29 total kills. It’s pertinent to mention that he also had no deaths during the pivotal match. Yopaj was joined by Rolen Andrei Gabriel “skem” Ong and Timothy “Tims” Randrup, two Pinoy co-stars who both played excellent support during the tournament.
SEA’s Dota 2 victors annihilated Tundra’s Juggernaut while it cruised through the bottom lane at around the 45-minute mark, thus laying the groundwork for a brutal GG push no more than a minute later.
Earlier, Boom had placed in the top of the group stages 3-0, thereby securing a coveted upper-bracket slot in the subsequent playoffs. However, they were defeated in their first playoff series 2-1 by notable adversaries Tundra.
Boom had the following to say concerning their win on their official Twitter account:
‘We came here with no expectations. Against the best teams, we wanted to learn. Smooth start with some obstacles. In the end, we were able to win it all. Thank you for making us proud!’
