Match result

Fracture, Paper Rex's pick, opened the best-of-five with the most one-sided map of the entire series. PRX came out completely on fire, executing an aggressive masterclass that held Leviatán to just 2 rounds, with Jinggg dropping a massive 1.85 rating on Raze to set the tone for what looked like it could be a comfortable PRX path to the title.

Split, Leviatán's pick, produced an immediate and decisive response. After getting crushed on Fracture, Leviatán's rookie Sato answered right back, running rampant on Phoenix to put up a dominant 23-12 statline and a 345 ACS, 1.58-rated performance that locked down the map 13-6 and levelled the series at 1-1.

Breeze, PRX's second pick, was an absolute heart-attack map for fans on both sides. Leviatán managed an incredibly strong defensive comeback half, building an 8-4 lead and putting massive pressure on PRX on what is historically Leviatán's permaban map. PRX barely pulled it out 13-11 through clutch round lurking and defensive multi-kills from invy and something, retaking the series lead at 2-1 in what stood as the most contested map of the Grand Final.

Ascent, Leviatán's second pick, was where the tide began to turn for good. Leviatán's mental fortitude proved unbreakable, their coaching staff systematically solving PRX's chaotic mid-round calls to close out the map 13-10 and level the series at 2-2, setting up a winner-takes-all Lotus decider.

Lotus was the decider and Leviatán delivered the most complete performance of the series when it mattered most, closing out the final map with a highly coordinated defensive half. Leviatán won 13-5, completing their full run from the lower bracket and lifting the Masters London trophy in the process.

Top performers

something led Paper Rex across the series with 251 ACS, a rating between 1.24 and 1.33 depending on map-specific adjustments, and a 59-41-38 KDA with a plus 18 kill-death differential, his individual ceiling giving PRX their primary scoring platform even in the eventual loss. Jinggg posted 221 ACS and a 1.17 rating, his 1.85-rated Fracture performance the standout individual map of the entire series for either team. Sato was the defining individual performer for Leviatán, his Split explosion of 345 ACS and a 1.58 rating the single most dominant statline of the Grand Final and the moment that confirmed Leviatán's championship run was genuine rather than a product of bracket fortune. Neon contributed 214 ACS and a 1.13 rating, with blowz adding 193 ACS and a 1.08 rating, giving Leviatán the distributed individual depth across their full roster that complemented Sato's standout series.
