ONE DAY
DECIDED IT ALL
PUBG NATIONS CUP 2026 · GRAND FINAL

Studio, studio — Ukraine opened the final! Hakatory caught fire on Erangel and the national team grabbed the first map of the tournament. But then Brazil brazenly seized the stage.

sparkingg mowed down everything that moved, Miramar rolled straight into the Brazilian piggy bank — and by the end of the night the scoreboard read 61 points to Argentina's 44. Five maps — five different champions: Ukraine, Brazil, Korea (Taego), China (Rondo) and Vietnam, who closed the day on the second Erangel.

A classic Nations Cup, where every flag tears into every other. But after day one, one team was already trying on the crown — and it was Brazil.

A separate line in fine print: in the fourth game of the day Ukraine suffered an equipment failure — organizers compensated the team with +3 points toward the final standings (details in the Notes tab on the tournament page).

And here comes the dragon. South Korea took two maps at once — Rondo and Taego — 47 points on the day and a surge to second place in the overall standings. China breathed down their neck (44), and the USA unexpectedly posted the third-best result of the day.

Meanwhile yesterday's runner-up, Argentina, plunged into the abyss: just 13 points, last place on the day, the entire lead evaporated. Brazil cooled off — not a single WWCD, a modest 39 points — but the day-one cushion held: 100 to Korea's 80.

Finland notched its first WWCD on Taego, Denmark took Miramar, Neutral Team took Erangel. Everyone caught the scent of blood. The only question left: would Brazil's reserve last to the finish.

The last game day — and everyone hunting Brazil charged in together. Argentina rose from the ashes: PIPAA led the team, a Miramar WWCD, 44 points — the best single day of the whole tournament and a leap all the way to fifth place.

Vietnam exploded with two WWCDs, including the closing Erangel that put the full stop on the tournament. Neutral Team methodically clawed its way to the podium — 41 points on the day and third place overall. Korea played without a single WWCD, but steady and clean — and that is exactly what preserved their second place.

And Brazil? Brazil simply refused to surrender what they had built on the first night. A quiet 24 points was enough: 124 — and the crown stayed. A champion who won the tournament on Friday and never let it go through Sunday.
