Grand Finals Day 3: The Climax of Competition in the Discovery One Champions Trophy
The Discovery One Champions Trophy: PUBG Mobile Grand Finals was a landmark event in Bangladeshi esports, organized by Discovery One, “Bangladesh’s largest esports events organizer”. This online tournament brought together 512 registered teams, who battled through intense qualifiers to earn their place among the top 16 finalists. These elite teams then competed for the championship title in the Grand Finals, a true showcase of Bangladesh’s rising esports talent, strategy, and dedication.
The Grand Finals tested teams’ skills, adaptability, and planning across different PUBG Mobile maps. Day 3 was the most crucial, as all points accumulated to determine the overall winner. Every match, kill, and placement point was vital as pressure mounted and teams fought for the title. This final day demanded peak performance and nerves of steel from every player.

Matches 14 and 15 were on Erangel, the main and most balanced map. CMF Esports continued their strong play, getting 25 points in both matches. This showed their skill on Erangel.

Strategic Masterclass: Lessons from the Grand Finals
Teams like CMFES won because of careful planning and great execution of PUBG Mobile strategies. Moving smartly across maps to secure good spots in the safe zone is crucial. Top teams predict where the zone will shrink and move safely, often using vehicles on big maps like Miramar. This helps them avoid early fights and get better positions later.
Once in the safe zone, holding strong positions is key for both defense and attack. This means using high ground or buildings well. Professional teams always check the map and enemy positions to gain an edge. They also work together for pushes, using explosives and other items like smoke. “Trading” knocks (getting knocked to get an enemy kill) and “anchoring” (one player covering others) show high-level teamwork.
CMFES’s top players were great at getting takedowns, showing they were strong “fraggers.” Their win suggests they had a good In-Game Leader (IGL) who made smart calls. Support players would have helped with items and cover, and scouts would have found enemy locations. This shows that individual skill works best when players have clear roles and work together. Teams need a good IGL, support, and scouts, and clear communication to win.
To play like a pro, customize your controls and sensitivity for the best performance. Practice daily to improve aim and reflexes. Understand different weapons, for example, the M416 is suitable for beginners, while the DBS shotgun is for experienced players. Use advanced moves like “quick-scoping” and gyroscope aiming. Always be aware of your surroundings, listen for enemies, and communicate clearly with your team. Good communication is vital for team success.
