The Battlegrounds Mobile India Series (BGIS) 2024 Grand Finals was an electrifying event that captivated gaming enthusiasts nationwide. As teams from all over India clashed for the coveted title, the tournament showcased unforgettable moments, thrilling gameplay, and surprising upsets. Finally, Team X-Spark came victorious and became the best team in India. This article will discuss the top 5 moments during the BGIS 2024 Grand Finals that made it an event to remember.
BGIS 2024 Grand Finals: Top 5 Highlights
1. The maiden championship for Team X-Spark
After competing for almost three years, playing all the official events’ finals, Team X-Spark has finally secured a championship for them in BGMI. In 2023, they became the 2nd runner-up. At last, in 2024 they finally got their hands on the trophy.
In these three days, they have played brilliantly and kept themselves in contention. Although, their first WWCD came on the third day of the finals. This newly formed team set an example for the aspiring players.
2. Announcement of the Battlegrounds Mobile Pro Series (BMPS)
On the third day of the Grand Finals, Krafton CEO, Sean Hyunil Sohn announced the dates and the venue of the upcoming Battlegrounds Mobile Pro Series (BMPS). This year BMPS finals will be held in Kochi, Kerala. The Grand Finals are set to be played from the 26th of September, 2024 to the 29th of September, 2024. The early rounds will start in August. The prize pool of BMPS 2024 is 2 Cr. INR.
3. Five times Olympian Abhinav Bindra came as the chief guest
Legendary Indian Olympic Gold Medallist and retired shooting athlete Abhinav Bindra graced the BGIS 2024 Grand Finals in the Hitex Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad on the third day. He came as the chief guest of the finals.
Last time, it was another legendary sportsperson i.e. Olympic Gold Medallist Neeraj Chopra. Krafton also donated the entire money which was generated from the selling of the elite entry passes of the BGIS Grand Finals to the Abhinav Bindra Foundation. The total amount was 25 lakhs INR. It will be used for the betterment of the sports in India.
4. Record concurrent watching
This year’s Grand Finals broke all the previous records in terms of watching. For the first time, the live stream of BGMI on YouTube touched 2,25,000 concurrent watching, breaking their previous record of 197,000 concurrent watching.
It seems nowadays, BGMI is only surviving on the single pillar of Esports. The number of live audience was also great on the second and third day of the grand finals. Many people showed up to meet with their favorite content creators, and esports players, and support their favorite teams.
5. Underdogs showed resilience as top teams failed to perform
Many underdog teams such as Reckoning Esports, Team Limra, and Venom Gaming played brilliantly in their first-ever official LAN finals and found themselves in the top half of the points table as OG teams like Team iQOOSouL, 8Bit, Carnival Gaming, and iE Esports failed to perform as per their potential and disappointed their fans. Even the champions of the previous edition of BGIS, Gladiator Esports, currently known as MOGO Esports secured the 14th place, which is quite shocking to see.
Final Thoughts
BGIS 2024 was a great success for the publishers and the fans. It witnessed a great footfall. But there is always room for improvement. In the LAN location, there was no refreshment stall, the entry area was also very unorganized and chaotic. In the BGIS Grand Finals, many matches were re-hosted due to server issues. It is unexpected in a big tournament like this. We hope, in the future Krafton will fix these issues and we will get to even better and bigger official events.
