However, Ad Finem pumped up by the crowd did not surrender and were involved in one of the greatest games of 2016.

Gustav 's4' Magnusson's Slardar in Game 2 was a big highlight for the fans and the panel. However, the Grand Finals did not start until game 3. An epic rollercoaster that had the PGL cameraman dancing between the booths trying to work out who the hell was going to win the game. The match had it all, and the entire Wang Theatre were literally on their feet. 114 kills in 80 minutes.

The series continued while the audience and viewers at home were still recovering from the excitement of game 3. OG closed the series 3-1 and they deserved it without question, but the highlight of the Grand Final will inevitably be game 3, which proved just why eSports is such a brilliant phenomenon.
