Royals of War from Mexico ranked 10th in the overall table with 32 points. Owing to a string of inconsistent performances, S2G Esports from Turkey accumulated a meager 29 points in six games. Death Wolves secured 23 points, 15 of which came from finishes.
Dplus KIA from South Korea completely faltered on the first day of the PMGO as the experienced squad accrued a measly 19 points, including 12 eliminations. The team must galvanize itself in the remaining 12 matches to attain a respectable place.
