PSG and SHG Clash
The PCS 2024 Spring Split Playoffs finals on Sunday, April 7, 2024, featured a matchup between PSG Talon (hereinafter PSG) and Fukuoka SoftBank HAWKS gaming (hereinafter SHG). PSG and SHG had previously faced off in the tournament on Sunday, March 24, 2024, where SHG lost a close match 3-2. However, from that point, SHG won three consecutive matches to fight their way back to the finals.
PSG is known as a powerhouse in the Asia-Pacific region, with data showing they have been undefeated on the PCS Spring Split Playoffs finals stage since 2020. SHG, representing Japan, took on the undefeated emperor as a challenger.
SHG, coming off a straight-set victory in the semifinals, kept their momentum to take First Blood. However, the champion PSG expanded their lead through steady play and successfully pulled ahead significantly following a team fight.
Following that, PSG maintained their momentum, and before long, it resulted in a 3-0 straight-set victory. However, SHG also put up a great fight, finishing 2nd in their first-ever appearance in the PCS Spring Split Playoffs! We should keep an eye on their performance from summer onwards.
As the winners, PSG will represent the PCS in MSI 2024, which will be held from Wednesday, May 1, to Sunday, May 19, 2024.
