The green archers defeat a gutsy SAGE Ultimate squad from the University of San Agustin in Iloilo, 3-2 to defend their CODM title.
SAGE started the game off by winning a big game 1 in Hardpoint at Summit 250-191, stopping the rampaging Viridis Arcus on their tracks. DLSU however, immediately bounced back in game 2 in Search and Destroy at Raid 7-3. They continued their momentum and took game 3 as well in Control at Firing Range 3-0.
But USA seemed to have one more fight in them as they took game 4 in Hardpoint at Standoff in the closest of margins, winning 250-247 to set up a winner-take-all game 5.
In game 5 Search and Destroy at Standoff, however, DLSU and Viridis Arcus quickly asserted their dominance and took it all the way via a 7-4 result to come out as the undisputed campus CODM kings.
For his efforts in the finals, Marthur James “Mjay” Barongan won the Finals MVP award after averaging 1808 points.
