In an intense Grand Final, Giant Gaming came out at the top, beating Cloud9 with a clean 3-0 score and taking the APAC North November Six Major Trophy.
Giants Gaming were in the top two seeds of APAC North stage 2, which meant they directly qualified for the semi-finals of this ‘Mini-Major’. After beating Xavier Esports in the semis, Giants advanced straight to the finals.
On the other hand, Cloud9 had to fight their way to the Grand Finals, starting from the quarter-finals. But, eventually, they managed to beat GUTS and CYCLOPS gaming and qualify for the ‘Mini-Major’ finals, which meant a rematch of the August Major was in the place.
