A fury of run-and-gun antics in the popular
FPS game VALORANT prevailed in SM North EDSA Cyberzone on November 12, 2023, as
the Predator League 2024 Philippine Finals reached an explosive conclusion.
Before they could chase their dreams, Oasis
Gaming had to claw their way against their heated rivals, NAOS Esports in the
semifinals, which saw the former overcome a 1-0 deficit to eliminate them in a
reverse 2-1 sweep.
But the intensity did not end there as ZOL
Esports likewise grinded their way in a three-game slugfest against Valhalla in
the semifinals, only for the former to survive.
With Oasis and ZOL going head-to-head in
the finale, it was time for them to make their mark, but in the end, the Oasis
squadron breezed past their foes in a commanding 2-0 sweep.
During the battle in Split, ZOL was making
their last stand as they went head-to-head against Oasis when the former was on
the offensive. However, things changed when Oasis took the attacker’s role as
they commanded the rest of the match, which even saw Xavier “xavi8k” Juan’s
heroic Round 16 defensive masterpiece.
Oasis had a fiery start in Ascent, only for
ZOL to slowly inch their way. But in the final few rounds, the former composed
themselves and made key pickoffs when entering the bomb sites. With their
calculated plays, it was Oasis Gaming who prevailed.

It was no surprise that xavi8k garnered the
Intel MVP award from the community, as he made clutch plays in both games.
Winning the prestigious award meant bringing home a Predator Helios Neo 16 and
Php10,000.
With their victory, Oasis obtained a ticket
to the Asia Pacific Predator League 2024 Grand Finals at the SM Mall of Asia
Arena on January 13 -14, 2024. However, they are not alone in the quest to go
guns blazing against the elites. Despite losing the Philippine finals, ZOL will
represent the Philippines as well.
Together, they will try to bring pride to
the country alongside the Filipino-led Team Secret, one of the most renowned
teams in the VCT Pacific League.
Besides the championship and a slot at the
APAC Predator League Grand Finals, Oasis walked away with Php250,000, while ZOL
bagged Php100,000. Despite falling short, NAOS Esports and Valhalla received
Php55,000 each for their heroic performance.
Oasis Gaming reached the promised land, and
their tale was highlighted by the casting calls from Michaella “Mochii”
Gonzales, Brian “Guiang” Guiang, and Chris “Ramone” De Ocampo. But they were
not the only ones who brought life to the festivities as dynamic duo Allyza
Taylor and Justin “Vill” Villaserin introduced a lot of thrills to the
community.
With the appearances of Predator
ambassadors, namely Kang Dupet, KuyaNic, MaggieKarp, AmaraTV, and Een Mercado,
the Philippine finals offered a high degree of excitement, further amplified by
Urbandub’s performance.
