The Skyesports Championship 2024 has just concluded, and we have a surprising winner!

Beating all odds, French underdog, 3DMAX secured a decisive 2-0 victory over The Mongolz and clinched a CS2 trophy and a $100,000 prize.

How Was 3DMAX’s Run in The Skyesports Championship 2024?

Placed in Group B, 3DMAX faced tough competition right from the beginning. Their opening match against the formidable Russian team, Amkal Esports, was a nail-biter, ending with a 16-14 victory in overtime. Despite a setback against Eternal Fire in the second match, they managed to secure a second-place finish in their group, advancing to the playoffs.

The grand finals against The Mongolz were expected to be a close affair. However, the match turned out to be surprisingly one-sided, with 3DMAX dominating both maps, Anubis and Ancient, to secure a 2-0 victory. Four 3DMAX players achieved 25+ kills across the series. Graviti, one of the standout players for 3DMAX, delivered an impressive performance with a 38:20 series score, effectively shutting down The MongolZ’s offensive strategies. Ex3rcice, Maka, and Djoko also played crucial roles, contributing significantly to the team’s success.

Bryan “Maka” Canda of 3DMAX wins the MVP award with a $10,000 prize. In the winning speech, he says,

“I would like to thank every fan from France firstly who has been watching us at any time. I would also like to thank all the people who cheered for us. It was quite a tough LAN with some tough moments – we fell sick and stuff – but we made it through, and we’re so happy.”
