The winner, Rain, and the runner-up, Mackie, were awarded one million yen and the right to participate in the "Puyo Puyo Grand Prix 2025 Final" to be held in March 2025.

Rain's winning comment

I'm really happy to have won for the first time, because I've been playing Puyopuyo for a long time and I believe I have the ability to win. This time, I had practiced more than ever before, and I was able to win all the games with a good goal difference from the qualifying round, so I thought I could do pretty well at that point. I think Mackie is the strongest player in the world, so winning the championship after beating him twice gave me a lot of confidence.
